  • HANCOCK's HALF HOUR COLLECTIBLES Notes To
    HANCOCK’S HALF HOUR COLLECTIBLES Notes to accompany Volume 2 All photographs copyright (C) BBC The Tony Hancock Appreciation Society is delighted to have given its support to the production of this new and unique series concerning the lost or rare work of, and related to, Tony Hancock, one of our greatest comedians. Tony Hancock,1951 The Tony Hancock Appreciation Society (THAS) Since its inception in 1976, the THAS and its many allies have been at the forefront of efforts to find, preserve and promote the works of Tony Hancock. As detailed in the previous volume of this series, this toil has, over the decades, yielded innumerable discoveries of work by Hancock that was previously believed to have been lost. The result is that the THAS now has the most extensive archive of Hancock’s stage, radio, television, and film work in the world. In addition, we have myriad recorded items related to his career, such as interviews and documentaries featuring Hancock, his colleagues and friends. Each offers valuable insights into his life and work. It is this extensive collection, combined principally with that of Ted Kendall, the noted sound engineer and media researcher, and the contents of the BBC Sound Archives, that have enabled the publication of Hancock’s Half Hour Collectibles. It is natural for modern audiences to question why broadcast material is missing from the period in which Hancock was ascendant from the late 40s until 1968. As many readers may know, this issue has, in fact, affected the legacy of numerous performers, programmes and broadcasts; and this phenomenon is by no means limited to the BBC, the United Kingdom, or indeed, the period during which Hancock was active.

  • For April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You Are Holding a Dinner Party for 5 Gues
    U3a Creative Writing Group – “Writing prompt” for April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You are holding a dinner party for 5 guests plus yourself. The guests will be well known people, not necessarily living, but who have contributed to society in some way. Write about why you chose them and describe briefly conversations they would have had with each other and set the menu for the dinner. The guests I would invite are: Ventriloquist Peter Brough and his ventriloquist’s dummy Archie Andrews Ventriloquist Keith Harris and his puppet Orville the Duck Annette Mills and her string puppet Muffin the Mule Harry Corbett (magician and puppeteer) and his glove puppet Sooty the yellow teddy bear. Charlie Drake - Comedian/singer/slapstick artist Host - Eileen Truby The menu would be plain and simple and preferably something that could be eaten one handed as most of my guests would be using one of their hands to manipulate their puppets. I’d choose: Tomato soup with croutons so the guests wouldn’t have to mess about with breaking and buttering rolls. Homemade fish and chips, preferably served in newspaper (easy to pick up with fork or fingers). Finger bowls will be needed for use before dessert. Jelly and custard for dessert (easy to eat with a spoon). Drinks would be beers, wine, soft drinks and tea/coffee. I’ve chosen these guests as they remind me of the innocence and carefree days of my childhood. My children look at me as if I’ve gone mad when I tell them I used to listen to a radio program that starred a ventriloquist dummy called Archie Andrews.

  • A Biography of Peter Brough
    A Biography of Peter Brough Peter Brough was a popular ventriloquist who reached the height of his fame in the 1950s with the famous radio program entitled Educating Archie. Brough (pronounced Bruff) was born in Shepherd’s Bush, London, on February 26, 1916. Both his father and his grandfather moved back and forth between careers in the business of entertainment and in the business of manufacturing. Peter Brough was destined to follow in the family tradition. Arthur Brough, who was the father of Peter Brough, was also a music hall ventriloquist who used a dummy named Tim. Tim was used in the film Dead of Night (1945), where Michael Redgrave plays a vent whose dummy takes possession of him. Brough began performing ventriloquism at an early age. He first appeared in theater in 1938. During World War II, he performed for the military and tried using a variety of dummies. A 1943 British Pathé film entitled Mum’s the Word shows Brough at a young age as an already accomplished entertainer, but in that film he uses a walking stick with a talking head. He calls the stick John. The film ends with a song that has a wartime theme: "You're a Little Chap with Big Ideas". He also experimented with a figure named Jimmy or Lucky Jim (that may have been made by the noted figure-maker Len Insull). However, a dummy with a strong sense of identity and personality was still some time in the offing. But also in 1943, after receiving harsh comments from a critic about his pathetic characters and weak material, Brough began experimenting with voices and eventually decided to use the pitchy voice of a fourteen-year-old that would later be recognized throughout England.

The first known mechanical clock invented was in the 13th century very similar to the water clock but used mercury and it controlled the drum at a more constant rate. Galileo Galilei was the first to study the pendulum and Christiaan Huygens used his work to create the first clock using a pendulum. Over time they found that the longer the pendulum, the more accurate the time, so that is why pendulum clocks are a tall rectangular shape.

As a result, our March meeting was cancelled. So that you don’t miss out Richard has kindly written an article on the subject we missed. Please also take note of the information he has produced regarding the virus. However, we did hold a committee meeting and it was decided that we should also cancel our next meeting scheduled for April 21st. It is also likely that our May 19th meeting will go the same way. We have also heard that all the IWM museums have been closed until further notice. As a result, our scheduled Duxford outing of May 22nd will unfortunately, NOT now go ahead. All this means that we may be unlikely to be able to reconvene until at least our June meeting. This will be kept under review by our Social committee who will continue to meet on a regular basis. We will keep you all updated with any changes as they affect us. Additionally, we shall keep you posted by way of a monthly newsletter, rather than two monthly as is usual. Any future events may well be subject to other restrictions which are out of our control. We are however, intending to continue to make the arrangements for all the future events as per our calendar, of which you will all have a copy.

    HANCOCK’S HALF HOUR COLLECTIBLES Notes to Accompany Volume 1 All photographs copyright (C) BBC The Tony Hancock Appreciation Society is delighted to have given its support to the production of this new and unique series concerning the lost work of Tony Hancock. Tony Hancock,1956. Official BBC publicity picture The Tony Hancock Appreciation Society (THAS) The THAS was first formed in 1976. Since that time, its primary purpose has been always to celebrate and promote the career of one of Britain’s best-loved comedians. However, the ways in which these aims have been applied in 1 practice have changed over the decades. In its early years, when very few episodes from either radio or television had been seen or heard since original broadcast, society newsletters were typically full of pleas to the BBC to schedule repeats of the shows. Similarly, the THAS was keen for the BBC to increase the pace of commercial releases of the series; many fans from the early 1980s can recall living on a diet of one new LP or cassette each year, containing just a couple of shows. Fans were to be frustrated on both fronts for some years despite their persistent efforts. An early newsletter from 1980, for example, details futile exchanges with Equity to find out what the members of the Musicians’ Union wanted to be paid for repeat fees, since these were often cited as a barrier in this matter. In another magazine, it was reported that a THAS letter to David Hatch, then Head of Light Entertainment for BBC Radio, had been met with a dispiriting reply, which was reproduced as follows: ‘Hancock’ has been on the air reasonably recently and I am afraid is not scheduled in the current run of ‘Smash of the Day’.
