The first modern sitcom, Hancock's Half Hour made stars of Tony Hancock, Sid James and Kenneth Williams, and launched Ray Galton and Alan Simpson on one of the most successful comedy-writing partnerships in history.

But 20 episodes of the show are missing from the Â鶹Éç Archives. All missing episodes have now been lovingly re-recreated in the Â鶹Éç Radio Theatre.

The classic Hancock score newly recorded by the Â鶹Éç Concert Orchestra, conducted by Levon Parikian.

Producers: Neil Pearson and Hayley Sterling.

The lost original recording was first heard on the 31st May, 1955.

A Â鶹Éç Studios production for Â鶹Éç Radio 4, first broadcast in December 2019.
