Hancock

by Freddie Hancock & David Nathan

The search for the truth about this extraordinarily complex clown involves drawing on the memories and perceptions of writers like Alan Simpson and Ray Galton, who, in a sense, hewed the Half Hour Hancock out of the whole man, J. B. Priestley who put him, thinly disguised, into a novel, Phillip Oakes, who wrote him a screenplay, and Denis Norden who wrote material he convulsed audiences with for years. There are, too, the writer / performers like John Osborne, Spike Milligan and Eric Sykes, the comedians who knew him or worked with him like Harry Secombe, Joan Turner, Kenneth Williams and Graham Stark; showman Bernard Delfont; actress Sylvia Syms, his radio and television directors, Dennis Main Wilson and Duncan Wood and scores of others of lesser fame but crucial importance in Hancock's life.
