Although Hancock's decision to cease working with James, when it became known in early 1960,[2] disappointed many at the time, his last BBC series in 1961 contains some of his best-remembered work (including The Blood Donor and The Radio Ham). After breaking with his scriptwriters Ray Galton and Alan Simpson later that year, his career declined. Early life and career Hancock was born in Southam Road, Hall Green, Birmingham (then in Warwickshire),[3] but, from the age of three, he was brought up in Bournemouth (then in Hampshire), where his father, John Hancock, who ran the Railway Hotel in Holdenhurst Road, worked as a comedian and entertainer.[4] After his father's death in 1934, Hancock and his brothers[5] lived with their mother and stepfather Robert Gordon Walker[6] at a small hotel called Durlston Court, in Gervis Road, Bournemouth. He attended Durlston Court Preparatory School, part of Durlston boarding school near Swanage (the name of which his parents adopted for their hotel) and Bradfield College in Reading, Berkshire, but left school at the age of fifteen.[citation needed] In 1942, during the Second World War, Hancock joined the RAF Regiment.[7] Following failed auditions for the Entertainments National Service Association (ENSA), he joined the Gang Shows, travelling around Europe entertaining troops. After the war, he joined the Ralph Reader Gang Show touring production of "Wings".[8] He later worked in a double act with musician Derek Scott at the Windmill Theatre, a venue which helped to launch the careers of many comedians at the time. A favourable press review of his work at the Windmill was seen in July 1948. "But mention must made of a new young comedian…who with a piano partner, gives some brilliant thumbnail impressions of a “dud” concert party."[9] He took part in radio shows such as Workers' Playtime[10] and Variety Bandbox.[11] In July 1949, he was praised for his work in the summer presentation of "Flotsam's Follies" at the Esplanade Concert Hall, Bognor Regis.[12] Christmas 1949 saw him in the part of "Buttons" in the Cinderella pantomime at the Royal Artillery, Woolwich.[13] In June 1950, he opened in the "Ocean Revue" at the Ocean, Clacton Pier[14] which ran for three months. At Christmas 1950, Hancock was in the "Red Riding Hood" pantomime at the Theatre Royal Nottingham playing the part of Jolly Jenkins, the Baron's page.[15] In 1951–1952, for one series beginning on August 3, 1951,[16] Hancock was a cast member of Educating Archie,[17] in which he mainly played the tutor (or foil) to the nominal star, a ventriloquist's dummy.

The show ran for 13 episodes on ABC in 1946, for 157 episodes on CBS in 1946–1949, and finally for 75 episodes on NBC in 1949–1951. The series starred Howard Duff (and later, Steve Dunne) as Sam Spade and Lurene Tuttle as his secretary Effie, and took a considerably more tongue-in-cheek approach to the character than the novel or movie. The announcer was Dick Joy.[1] The series was largely overseen by producer/director William Spier. In 1947, Spier and scriptwriters Jason James and Bob Tallman[citation needed] received an Edgar Award for Best Radio Drama from the Mystery Writers of America.[2] Before the series, Sam Spade had been played in radio adaptations of The Maltese Falcon by both Edward G. Robinson (in a 1943 Lux Radio Theater production) and by Humphrey Bogart (in a 1941 Academy Award Theater production), both on CBS. Dashiell Hammett's name was removed from the series in the late 1940s because he was being investigated for involvement with the Communist Party. Later, when Howard Duff's name appeared in the Red Channels book, he was not invited to play the role when the series made the switch to NBC in 1950. The 1946–1951 series The different incarnations of the series were: The Adventures of Sam Spade (1946, ABC) – 13 30-minute episodes The Adventures of Sam Spade (1946–49, CBS) – 157 30-minute episodes The Adventures of Sam Spade (1949–50, NBC) – 51 30-minute episodes The Adventures of Sam Spade (1950–51, NBC) – 24 30-minute episodes The Adventures of Sam Spade (1946, ABC) 13 30-minute episodes Starring Howard Duff as Sam Spade and Lurene Tuttle as Effie (Duff replaced on some occasions by Stephen Dunne) "Sam and the Guiana Sovereign" (July 12, 1946) "Sam and the Farewell Murders" (July 19, 1946) "Sam and the Unhappy Poet" (July 26, 1946) "Sam and the Psyche" (August 2, 1946) "Death and Company" (August 9, 1946) "Two Sharp Knives" (August 16, 1946) "Zig Zags of Treachery" (August 23, 1946) "Sam and the Scythian Tiara" (August 30, 1946) "The Corporation Murders" (September 6, 1946) "The Dot Marlow Caper, Part 1" (September 13, 1946) "The Dot Marlow Caper, Part 2" (September 20, 1946) "The Count on Billy Burke" (September 27, 1946) "The Gutting of Couffignal" (October 4, 1946) The Adventures of Sam Spade (1946–1949, CBS) 157 30-minute episodes Starring Howard Duff as Sam Spade and Lurene Tuttle as Effie Sponsor: Wildroot Cream-Oil Writers: John Michael Hayes, Gil Doud, Bob Tallman Guest stars: Sandra Gould (played the "new secretary" while Lurene Tuttle was on vacation, in the June 27, 1948, show), William Conrad, Jack Webb.

Referring to himself as a "consulting detective" in his stories, Holmes is known for his proficiency with observation, deduction, forensic science and logical reasoning that borders on the fantastic, which he employs when investigating cases for a wide variety of clients, including Scotland Yard. The character Sherlock Holmes first appeared in print in 1887's A Study in Scarlet. His popularity became widespread with the first series of short stories in The Strand Magazine, beginning with "A Scandal in Bohemia" in 1891; additional tales appeared from then until 1927, eventually totalling four novels and 56 short stories. All but one[a] are set in the Victorian or Edwardian eras, between about 1880 and 1914. Most are narrated by the character of Holmes's friend and biographer Dr. John H. Watson, who usually accompanies Holmes during his investigations and often shares quarters with him at the address of 221B Baker Street, London, where many of the stories begin. Though not the first fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes is arguably the best known.[1] By the 1990s, there were already over 25,000 stage adaptations, films, television productions and publications featuring the detective,[2] and Guinness World Records lists him as the most portrayed human literary character in film and television history.[3] Holmes' popularity and fame are such that many have believed him to be not a fictional character but a real individual;[4][5][6] numerous literary and fan societies have been founded on this pretence. Avid readers of the Holmes stories helped create the modern practice of fandom.[7] The character and stories have had a profound and lasting effect on mystery writing and popular culture as a whole, with the original tales as well as thousands written by authors other than Conan Doyle being adapted into stage and radio plays, television, films, video games, and other media for over one hundred years. Inspiration for the character Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930), Sherlock Holmes's creator, in 1914 Edgar Allan Poe's C. Auguste Dupin is generally acknowledged as the first detective in fiction and served as the prototype for many later characters, including Holmes.[8] Conan Doyle once wrote, "Each [of Poe's detective stories] is a root from which a whole literature has developed ... Where was the detective story until Poe breathed the breath of life into it?"[9] Similarly, the stories of Émile Gaboriau's Monsieur Lecoq were extremely popular at the time Conan Doyle began writing Holmes, and Holmes's speech and behaviour sometimes follow ...
