Galton and Simpson have chosen four favorite episodes from their classic radio series. "The Conjurer" sees Hancock taking up magic, and hired by Sid to put on a show at Dartmoor Prison. Little does he know that it's only a front for an escape plan...In "Cyrano de Hancock," Sid is besotted with Miss Pugh, and asks for Hancock's helpin expressing his love, while "The Diary" finds Hancock looking back at 1956, and falling into a reverie where he imagines himself as a surgeon, a lion tamer and a test pilot.

Once again, the master of misery is supported by a star cast including Sid James, Bill Kerr, Kenneth Williams and Hattie Jacques, and four sparkling scripts by the masters of mirth, Galton and Simpson.
