Seller's Description
Tony Hancock: The Definitive Biography. By John Fisher.
Without Hancock there would have been no Steptoe, no Alf Garnett, no Alan Partridge, no David Brent.
One of Britain's most innovative comedians and arguably its most popular, he united the nation in laughter with HACOCK'S HALF HOUR, the show that established the situation comedy.
In this first full appraisal of both his life and work, Fisher sheds new light on Hancock'sfall from grace, examining with sensitivity what went wrong and questioning whether his suicide was inevitable. At the same time, his unprecedented access to the Hancock family and its archives - together with interviews with friends and colleagues, several of whom have spoken for publication for the first time - adds to the celebration of this comedy hero.
TONY HANCOCK: THE DEFINITIVE BIOGRAPHY will redefine the Hancock legacy, reaffirming Hancock'sbody of work on stage, radio and television as unsurpassed by a single British comedian.
