starbank - sorry no; the cousin, (second or third to my father) James, was the founding General Manager of ATN7 in Sydney. I've never communicated with him, but my father used to keep in-touch with his parents. I believe his son worked in the production team too. I was told a few things concerning Tony Hancock, and of last days, but it was so long ago that I can no longer recall; or rather, I've got stuff mixed-up with what I've subsequently heard, and can no longer be sure of what I was told - if that makes sense? The only thing that has stuck in my memory, is that Jame's daughter, Jennifer (now the Australian author, Jennifer Rowe) got Tony Hancock's autograph, whilst he was in the TV studio.
Typical! My one half-claim to fame and I don't have a ripping yarn to tell!
