HANCOCK'S BURDEN

HANCOCK:

It's a waste of time me reading, I can never remember anything. I've got too much on my mind, you see: nuclear warfare, the future of mankind, China, ..... Spurs.

HANCOCK'S PARTY INVITE IS CANCELLED

HANCOCK:

That was a lucky escape! I nearly got sucked into a social whirlpool there, diverted from my lofty ideals into a life of debauchery! The flesh-pots of West London have been cheated of another victim! Eve has proffered the apple and Adam has slung it straight back at her!

HANCOCK BUSIES HIMSELF

HANCOCK:

To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self! ..... I wonder what's on television?
