From radio to television, Hancock was a pioneer, an artist and a master. Probably some of the funniest material ever recorded, he consistently makes me laugh out loud. Thank you so much for posting this and all the others.
Fabulous. His Long John Silver skit is great stuff. Worth every second of clip. Love the loaf of bread in front of the wireless, too. Thanks, I remember it first time around. Am looking forward to part 2.
Well this thing was broadcast live I presume, considering when he says "Hhhhancock's half hour" at the beginning, his coat is the same as in the first scene. This is the same for many episodes.
So glad I found this. It's wonderful to see these again. And now I have my 11-year old roaring his head off with laughter. The old classics still are the best. Thanks for supplying them.
"Have you been kicking it?" "Course I have! How do you think I change the channel?" LMFAO!!!!!!

In those days you could only edit video with a razor blade and a microscope so it was virtually the same as doing it live.

At 5:28 - "I'll do that again"
That's hilarious, they actually left it in there. I suppose it was too much trouble to do the whole thing again.

I dunno why he says it again - he says Galleon right the first time.

it's good because it strikes at the phoney 'intellectuals' who purport to hardly ever watching tv.

If only comedy was as good and as innocent as these. No swearing no fighting and no Filth.
