Tony Hancock Face to Face Interview Part 01

Hammering away at the question of how much money he makes is just plain rude, and gives no insight into the man at all...except in how he keeps trying to dodge it.

@OofusTwillip what a lovely man and what a wanker interviewer... when we look at journalists in retrospect we always see their ignorance - check questions thrown at bob dylan....

Fascinating stuff. It is hard to appreciate how famous Hancock was in 1960. It was before The Beatles and he was arguably the biggest star in Britain at the time. The public were outraged by this interview and felt it was intrusive which is interesting considering the treatment celebrities are subjected to now.

What ridiculous questions.
