Very Nearly an Armful - A Tony Hancock Podcast

Tim, Jon, James and Martin have been on the road and this episode was recorded live at the Riverside Studios, Hammersmith. In it, the team look at the colourised version of The Blood Donor in the company of their special guests Adam McLean and Clayton Hickman, producer, and colourisation lead for the episode.

The gang of four look at the excellent supporting cast in this episode and consider how many memorable lines continue to be repeated to this day! Adam and Clay discuss in detail the complexities of the colourisation process and how satisfied they are with the final result. An excellent Q&A session with the audience at the Riverside brings the podcast to a close. With huge thanks to Adam and Clay and to the Riverside Studios for hosting the event.
