Anthony John Hancock Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Anthony John "Tony" Hancock (12 May 1924 – 24 June 1968) was an English comedian and actor.Popular during the 1950s and early 1960s, he had a major success with his BBC series Hancock's Half Hour, first on radio from 1954, then on television from 1956, in which he soon formed a strong professional and personal bond with comic actor Sid James. Although Hancock's decision to cease working with James around 1960 disappointed many of his fans at the time, his last BBC series in 1961 contains some of his best remembered work ("The Blood Donor"). After breaking with his scriptwriters Ray Galton and Alan Simpson later that year, his career took a downward course because of his alcoholism.
Immensely self-critical and plagued by alcohol and marital problems, he committed suicide in Australia, leaving a note saying "Things seemed to go wrong too many times".

Of dry wit, Hancock's characters were invariably glum, bound to fail and resigned to their inevitable fate.
