Hancock's Half Hour: Season 4
The Bolshoi Ballet
4:00 pm
Sunday, 21 October 1956
The Bolshoi Ballet visited London in 1956 and, in this topical episode, Hancock is determined to see the ballet. However, there is a very long queue. When Sid James sells him tickets, Hancock believes that he really will see the ballet after all. But these are Sid James tickets and he soon finds himself back in the queue.
(with Alan Simpson and Ray Galton) This episode survives as a good quality off air recording. The initial episode was repeated in the regular Tuesday repeat slot plus a further repeat in July 1957
