    Reminds me of a tricky trivia quiz question I once came across ...

    (mostly useless to those outside the UK)


    Q. Who starred in the first episode(s) of the second radio series of Tony Hancock's "Hancock's Half Hour"?

    A. It wasn't Tony Hancock. Actually the first series had got so popular Tony Hancock had disappeared due to the pressure he felt from the first series.
    But back in 1955 the radio shows were all broadcast live. When the BBC found that Tony had vanished a few days before the broadcast without a trace then panicked. Eventually somebody suggested Harry Seacombe a famous voice actor could mimic Tony. And for the first few episodes Harry Seacombe played Tony Hancock until one day Tony heard himself on the radio and he decided to come back.

    Now there's a name I've not heard in ages, as you may or may not know, that Harry Seacombe, Spike Milligan and Peter Sellers and others were the cast of the Goon Show which I love and have most of the episodes.
