Featuring every episode from the fifth series of Hancock's Half Hour, broadcast from September to November 1959. These episodes capture Tony Hancock at his best; his comic timing is immaculate and Sid James provides the perfect foil.
The Economy Drive:
They arrive back from holiday to find Sid has left the TV and all the lights on, and failed to cancel the milk and the papers...
The Two Murderers:
Hancock finds Sid reading a book about perfect murders and assumes his life - and his savings - are in jeopardy.
Lord Byron Lived Here:
When Hancock discovers some Byron 'odes' behind the peeling wallpaper, he opens 23 Railway Cuttings as a stately home.
Twelve Angry Men:
"Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain?" British justice takes a battering with Tony and Sid on the jury.
The Train Journey:
"There's no more dismal sight in the world than a train load of Englishmen hurtling through the rain! Eight hundred miserable people hating the sight of each other who can't get off!"
The Cruise:
Hancock's romantic ambitions take a backseat when he becomes convinced the cruise ship is sinking.
The Big Night:
Hancock and Sid have a big Saturday night out planned - the East Cheam birds had better watch out...
The Tycoon:
Attending a shareholders' meeting of the East Cheam Building Society, Hancock falls asleep and dreams that he is a magnate.
Spanish Interlude:
Having failed to succeed at home, Hancock ventures to Spain only to discover they don't even speak English.
Football Pools:
Hancock needs only one more draw on his coupon. He and Sid go to the match - to encourage each side equally.
