I suppose the programme makers wanted to give Handcock's work a modern relavence. But Doherty was a poor choice. Perhapes they chose him because he's a drunk like Tony was. I love Handcock [God rest his soul]. It was interesting to see the ITV series clips.

@halifaxoperaworkshop yes I did too, I couldnt care less about Doherty being a fan, he's a talentless arse.

What the hell is Doherty doing in this doc? I just fast forwarded through any bits with him in them.

It's not a catchphrase, it's simply the book Hancock's reading int the 'Missing Page' episode.. I can't stand Doherty.. I love Hanckcock !

Dear old Tony Hancock, he will never be forgotten.

@JekyllBoote I'm sort of young and American. I just discovered Hancock. When he did the Hamlet scene as a pirate I thought that was hilarious!

It`s not my fault the director selected end-of-the-hour film of me a bit brahms n`Lizt ,...after a potful of eloquent, witty, and - aye - worthy comments on the great fella. You roll of miserable, bitchy, bully-esque charlies

Doherty is a Huge fan. He sings a song called Lady Don't Fall Backwards in the clip. Up The Bracket, The Libertines first album was named after a Hancock catch phrase.

also, in the libertines song 'vertigo' he sings lines from sid james' poem in 'the poetry society': 'lead pipes, fortune made'.
babyshambles also have a song called 'stone me what a life'
