The Scandal Magazine
Episode 3
Saturday, 6 December, 2025
In this third podcast of our series, we look at The Scandal Magazine from the 5th radio series. The three amigos consider this to be one of the finest of the radio half hours, discuss the unusual appearance of guest star John Vere in this fifth series episode and consider the brilliant voices provided by Hattie Jacques who is in top form in this episode as both Miss Pugh and ‘Mabel under the table’. The trio also look at the roles of Kenneth Williams, and his excellent portrayal of both the taxi driver and the judge and consider how risqué this episode must have been in the 1950s. Finally, the team consider, in detail, which edition of Blabbermouth publications they will be in if they visit the Bag of Nuts after recording the episode. Don’t forget to rate and subscribe to the podcast. And if you haven’t done so already, why not join the Tony Hancock Appreciation Society - full details of how to join are at www.tonyhancock.org.uk. We are already planning events for 2026, and we’d love to welcome you as a member and see you at our events. In addition, screenings of Hancock’s TV episodes on the big screen continue at the Riverside Studios in Hammersmith, with the next event expected to be held in January. In our next festive podcast we look at the TV episode Hancock’s 43 Minutes or The East Cheam Repertory Company. We hope to see you then.
