Product Description

Product Description

Christmas Club/Hancock's Happy Christmas/Bill and Father Christmas/The Diary Celebrate Christmas in East Cheam with Anthony Aloysius St John Hancock in these four episodes filled with his own unique brand of seasonal cheer. All four of these themed Christmas episodes have been released before on various Hancock Half Hour collections but we are bringing them together in a special edition for the Christmas market. The cover will have a Christmas feel but will tie in with the rest of the Hancock range, which has now sold in excess of 150,000 units. We released a similar Christmas- themed Goons double cassette last year which performed very well, selling 12,000 units. 001 0563478136

5.0 out of 5 stars Celebrate Xmas in true Hancock style, 30 Nov 2002
By A Customer
Buy this.

Having heard all of these shows previously on the radio & having just bought the cd version to play in the car. I can only say that if you really want to celebrate this is the way to do it.

Although the plots are somewhat dated the pathos that runs through the shows remains relevant today. Truely masterful performances by Hancock, James, Williams ably supported by Jacques & Kerr.

Sit back, enjoy and maybe cry a little - with laughter of course.

5.0 out of 5 stars Christmas with Hancock, 20 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Hancock's Happy Christmas (BBC Radio Collection) (Audio Cassette)
The episodes on this tape are - without exception - excellent. Hancock is gloomy, miserly and hilarious in each of them. He says in one of them "Christmas is going to be just like any other day in this house - dead miserable", and it's lovely hearing Bill Kerr, Hattie Jacques and Sid James having a relatively good time themselves whilst pushing Hancock deeper into the gloom he predicts.

In one episode a mishap leaves him without his Christmas club money (beautifully timed response from the person who gets it), puts up with some insulting orphans, reviews his year in the realms of fantasy and - the best - tries to make up for breaking Bill Kerr's faith in Santa Claus. They're lovely plots - and it's a surprise Galton and Simpson could come up with such diverse ones each year. Seven series of the radio series I believe they wrote - and yet the later episodes haven't worn thin.

It's a great tape - buy it.
