Letter: Tony Hancock on the wrong track
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: While I enjoyed Jim White's most entertaining article about the Dead Comics Society (23 October), I, along with many others I'm sure, spotted one inaccuracy: Tony Hancock's mythical stamping ground was at Railway Cuttings, East Cheam, not East Sheen.
I only mention it in case any future plaque to commemorate one of our finest comedic talents is affixed to the wrong house]
Yours sincerely,
