Hancocks Half Hour was one of the most successful series ever made and created an international star.

The BBC broadcast eighty hours of Hancock on radio and television between 1954 and 1961. Now BBC Radio Collection is publishing in chronological order all 74 surviving radio shows from the BBC Archives with an accompanying booklet that contains an introduction from the show's writers Galton & Simpson a history of the show with contemporary press extracts and photos episodes synopsies for all shows including the missing ones and biographies of the cast.
