Just watched The Rebel with Tony Hancock, he's one of my favourite comedians of all times, a tragic end to him but this was a delightful outing for him, taking his character out of the 'Half Hour' format with some familiar faces. Same kind of storyline but nice to see him in colour and not just black and white.

Oooh, so Robert Fripp and a lot of #kingcrimson are from Bournemouth, and Alex from #Blur is from Boscombe! #TonyHancock also grew up in Bournemouth! He had a tragic life, but he brought me a lot of laughs on Hancock's Half Hour (definitely check it out if you've never heard it!). Very interesting!

“Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain? Brave Hungarian peasant girl who forced King John to sign the pledge at Runnymede and close the boozers at half past ten! Is all this to be forgotten?”
