Very Nearly an Armful - A Tony Hancock Podcast

The Wild Man of The Woods


Listen Later

In the first of our new series of podcasts, we look at the radio episode The Wild Man of the Woods from the fourth radio series.

 

The episode, which was released on Hancock’s first LP This is Hancock, is considered by the Team as one of best of the radio episodes.  The gang look at the number of roles played by Kenneth Williams, discuss the great performances from all of the cast, consider the beautiful language used by Galton and Simpson in this episode and review probably the most well known fluff in all of the radio episodes!


Don’t forget to rate and subscribe to the podcast.  And if you haven’t done so already, why not join the Tony Hancock Appreciation Society – full details of how to join are at www.tonyhancock.org.uk   We have an event planned for Solihull in September 2025 and more events will be added to the calendar over the coming months.  We’d love to welcome you as a member and see you at our events. In addition, screenings of Hancock’s TV episodes on the big screen continue at the Riverside Studios in Hammersmith.

 

We’ll be back in two weeks with a review of the fifth radio series Around the World in Eighty Days.  We hope to see you then.
