Dead Poets Society is 36 years old today. 'O Captain! My Captain!' Robin Williams was extraordinary, as was the rest of the young cast. Peter Weir shot it in chronological order, so the whole process led to this scene. No other film has made me cry as much as this one.

The @RadioTimes week ending 26th May 1961 featuring the lad himself on the front cover showcasing #Hancock. John Fisher, Hancock’s biographer wrote: “The expectation for the new series was spine-tingling. The series would unquestionably produce some of Hancock’s finest work.”

The funniest of men, the saddest of men. The great comedy actor Tony Hancock was #botd 1924. A troubled genius who left a huge legacy of laughter after his early death from suicide at just 44. Here in between scenes on The Punch & Judy Man at @ElstreeStudios in 1962

Remembering Tony Hancock, born #OTD 12 May 1924. Best known for Hancock's Half Hour on radio from 1954, when it transferred to TV he became Britain's top star and the first to earn £1000 a show. Even now, his shows written by Galton & Simpson are part of our culture. A pint?

Unpacking the most important part of my collection today - travelled around the world with me! Forgot Edward Joffe signed 'Hancock's Last Stand'. We had a chat in the early 00s when I was doing some research on Tony. #tonyhancock
Remembering Tony Hancock, born 12 May 1924. One of my favourite scenes. Too many people breathing too little air. #tonyhancock

Today's offering is a three parter charting the unintentional sexually advances of Dr Soaper (Kenneth Williams) to Miss Haggard (Hattie Jacques) in Carry On Camping and culminates in my favourite line from the film. I hope you enjoy it. Good day to you.
