The Racehorse

Harry has 10 bob left so Bill decides to spend it on a racehorse. The fact that it only has three legs doesn't deter Sid from entering it in the Britannia Steeplechase.

(without Tony Hancock with Harry Secombe) This episode is missing from the archives and was only ever broadcast once (plus the Sunday repeat).

This episode was re-recorded by the BBC for the third series of The Missing Hancocks. Featuring Andy Secombe playing his Father Harry Secombe. The re-recorded show was broadcast on 28th March 2017 on Radio 4.
