I was incredibly struck by how June Whitfield, as Hancock's arty bohemian date in one sketch, could have been the mother of Amy Farrah Fowler (Mayim Bialik) in Big Bang Theory!
She had that flat kind of voice, and the paperclip necklace must have inspired Carol McGiffin to wear something similar on Loose Women.
I've often felt that Tony Hancock grew to resent his supporting cast outshining him (as with Sid James). _________________ We are loonies and we are proud!
