Who heard a Hancock script?

[PigletJohn]

Round about Friday or Saturday, probably mid-morning, I heard (prob on R4) a few snatches of a previously unbroadcast Galton & Simpson play, written for Tony Hancock but he didn't like it.

I think the actor started by grumbling and trying to decide if he should get out of bed. Sounded like a monologue.

I thought I'd be able to find it on Listen Again, but couldn't.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

I think I heard it on Front Row?

[PigletJohn]

not in wednesday's, thursday's or friday's editions

[Panzee]

Hmm. Wonder when I heard it? Before the Archers on Sunday?

[Panzee]

Yes it was!

Broadcasting House

[PigletJohn]

thanks v much!

I got the idea from the snatches I heard that it was a full reading, but I see now it was a discussion with preview excerpts.

p.s. in the prog it says (at about 51.20) "last Sunday on "Sunday" we aired a few seconds of Hancocks Half Hour ..."

so maybe I heard it earlier.
