Very sad to hear from the family that our great friend and Hancock's Half Hour regular Laurie Webb has passed away at the age of 101. He had a wonderful career in the theatre, filling in between stage commitments with TV work, including Dr Who. A lovely man, so generous to fans.

Remembering the wonderful Dick Emery, born #OTD 19 February 1915. Great mates with Hancock, they helped each other out when struggling to get on the ladder to success in the post war years. Beautiful fluffed line in this clip as Emery plays a postman in Hancock's Half Hour.
