ATV TV Series 5

The fifth series for ITV was simply entitled 'Hancock's'. In this series, Hancock plays the manager of a nightclub with his own sketches interspersed with those of different guests each week. Broadcast between June and July 1967, the show was written by John Muir and Eric Green and directed by Mark Stuart.

None of the series survives although a short off-air extract exists which comprises the end of one of the episodes. This is available for hire in the THAS DVD library.
