Although Hancock, in my humble opinion, can be equaled(I would rate Basil Fawlty(John Cleese),Blackadder(Rowan Atkinson)and Bilko(Phil,Silvers)as equal to him)he can not be bettered. I also think Hancock was at his very best when Syd James was his foil. But this DVD where Hancock goes 'solo'(the 'supporting cast' are, to a man, and woman, brilliant, eg, June Whitfield in the Blood Donor) is just pure genius: a great comedian with two of THE greatest comedy script writers ever, Galton and Simpson.
Tony Hancock alongside Galton & Simpson (Writers)is the perfect match, This DVD shows hancock at his best when going solo. The DVD gives you 5 of his best solo shows with his unique look on life and can turn any situation into a comedy......I personally thought he was at his best when he paired up with Sid James but you won't go far wrong with this DVD if you like Tony Hancock.
Classic hancock and anyone of that "certain age" who was an avid fan will have no problem getting laughs from classic episodes. Hancock will never really be replaced. Needless to say the humour and production does come over as a "bit-dated" but the very fact Tony and his chums, particularly Sid James, are still raising laughs after all this time is adequate testimony to the master of chuckle.
