He's even more talented than I remember as a kid watching late night with my dad. His American accents are spot on and this is coming from an American!
In Oakland California, Benny Hill came on after the 10 O'Clock News. I watched him while my Dad watched The Untouchables, which I watched the last 30 minutes of as Benny Hill was on for 30 minutes. Both were staples in our household ✊🏿
@David John Yeah, tell that to the folks who made Cheers, Taxi, Saturday Night Live, M*A*S*H, I Love Lucy, Rocky and Bullwinkle, The Carol Burnett Show, Young Frankenstein, the Pink Panther series, etc., etc., etc. Sheesh!
@David John Who writes the best comedy is strictly subjective. What one person finds funny, another person will not. If you prefer British comedy, that's fine. I discovered Benny Hill in my dorm at college, quickly became a fan, and introduced it to the rest of the gang. Benny became a must-see at 11 p.m. each night. We had a great time. HOWEVER - your contention that "the yanks aren't very good with comedy" is baloney! I stand by the examples I cited, and could provide a dozen more, if your interested. If you don't like the stuff we produce here in the U.S. that's your right. But to say that we aren't very good with comedy is just bull.
@@raylumin8708 The original poster - who I replied to - pulled his comments, causing a bit of confusion. In my previous post, located above, I listed lots of of U.S. comedies, in response to his contention that "the yanks aren't very good with comedy." Which we both know is absolutely bullshit! We've produced lots of classic comedies, many of which are loved the world over.
Jenny Lee Wright. One of the first women I noticed while growing up. I was hardly aware of women until I saw this sketch & even back then I thought she was hot as hell.
such a shame this brilliant Comedian, was cancelled, after bringing in huge ratings. Seems some members of the public complained about the Angels, and double entendres. Looking at them now, just silly funny humor. The women on his show, more than often, gave it back to him, equally. But thankfully, we have these clips of his show, to still laugh and enjoy. Have to admit, he did great impressions, of those TV Detectives.
It's a common misconception that Benny Hill was canceled because of some public complaints. Hill's show was canceled by the networks that didn't want the public getting any risque content on free tv anymore, instead pushing them to buy expensive cable channels. Almost any time the networks cancel these kinds of things it is solely because they are trying to force people to buy the same content at a higher price.
AS a kid (ok, a much younger adult, which today for me is a kid), I used to crack up watching Benny as Ironside rolling up & down the aisle as the train accelerated/decelerated. Funny stuff!
LOL, yes, there were multiple levels of humor on this that come at you fast, and you have to watch a couple of times at least. I saw this in the 1980s originally as a kid and liked the 1970s spot-on detectives impersonations, but the dialogue is fantastic, and the absurd references to Quinn Martin produced shows, like the third-rate fictitious "Oregon Express" a cheap ripoff of the Orient Express, and the closing credits of "Martin, Barton, Larton, and FAR-go Production". Benny also pulls off credible American accents. Brilliant stuff!
I remember watching this at the time and laughing when the shows he was taking the micky out of were on the box. Never forgot it in all these years. Thanks for putting up.
Was always amazed how much Dennis Weaver sounded like my granddad. I don't know if Dennis Weaver was actually from Texas, but my granddad was and he sounded just like him. Also looked like him a little.🏜
Weaver was originally from Joplin, Missouri, but lived for several years in Shreveport, Louisiana. He was also briefly in Norman, Oklahoma where he went to Oklahoma University.
@@macsnafu thank you for the information, it was very interesting. Also, what I had forgotten was McCloud (Weaver's character) was actually from New Mexico, not Texas, but my granddad moved from Texas to New Mexico when he was 10 years old but for some reason I still thought of him as being from Texas even though he lived the majority of his life in New Mexico. I hope this wasn't too boring.
Magnificent pair of Bristol's I mean pistol's.... Benny's poirot and his Ironside I couldn't bleedin type anything down...loved Benny hill..when men could have a cheeky laugh....gets out that massive cigar with the women talking about rippin her clothes off when smoking Christ just brilliant...Benny just showed what most men were thinking....
A great comedian. Just a look could engage the viewer, and put you on his side. He had so many takes on character, and he had so many ways to find the funny bone. Probably another in a long line, of those who were the complete opposite, of what the public assumed they were. The funniest men can be the ones who find the quietest corner at a party.....
We are made to be grumpy nowadays as for example at work if you say to female colleague your hair looks good you liable to get the sack...so you tend not to talk to them. Yes we were all cheekier and funnier years back😁

Legend
“The pleasure’s all mine”.- “Don’t you believe it”🤣🤣
Benny really nailed Dennis Weaver's accent and voice inflections for McCloud.

The finger in the ear thing is so hilarious. Only the master, Benny would come up with something like this.
Benny Hill is a comedic LEGEND! His comedy skits were hilarious. When his shows came to the USA in 1979, it was MUST see TV!
Benny can make me laugh until tears roll down my face. He was so precious.
He was the funniest guy ever! Love this man would always make my dad and I laugh every time we watched
One of Benny's best sketches. First time I saw this I knew I was watching something special.
Gone too soon and missed beyond words! R.I.P. Mr. Hill and thank you for leaving us so much to treasure?
Yes,making other people laughing is a kind of treasure.
Well said.Benny was totally irreplaceable
I used to love watching Benny Hill back in the day... You will NEVER get comedy like this again.
Class is class and Benny Hill was definitely class ,great fun
Uniquely brilliant!!!!!!!!nobody can touch him!!!!!!!
benny did a great job of doing all the 70s detectives!! hilarious! benny hill is a master!
Benny Hill RIP we miss you!
Loved the spoof of detectives. A creative genius, especially when Cannon and Pepper were squeezed together. How hilarious.
This was made in the mid 70s. Long before Benny was known in the US. Just shows how many US tv shows were popular here

The gorgeous Jenny Lee Wright as sergeant pepper....
Actually, she did a good representation of Police Woman's Angie Dickenson
this was one of bennys best a real showcase of his skills
A tour de force of comedy and characterization by Benny. This brings back fond memories of watching the original shows that are being parodied.
That chuckle when, as Frank Cannon, he says his stomach is beginning to ask if his throat is cut is spot on.
"The pleasure was all mine."...."Don't you believe it."
Oh yeah
She was mouthwateringly scrumptious.
HAHAHA! He had a comeback for everything Sgt Peper says! Hahaha!
I think she said "the pressure was all mine" :^D
Girl:I hope you don't hold it against me. Benny: "That's exactly what I am doing!" Baahaa!
There'll never be another Benny Hill ! Brilliant !!
Poirot from Paris, France? Ha Ha Ha Not to mention man's laughter !!
Kitty Kitty manslaughter ?
Belgium.
So true
Paris, France, Europe - just to help the Americans get the location
Who's still watching this in 2020? Hilarious!
Me!
I am
I'd love to be able to see his Tommy Tupper sketch but it's been removed
Idiotic question guess you are here to get your daily fix of likes.....pathetic

I loved when Benny Hill made fun of American TV shows!
Bob Tod , classic wig , nice jacket , and the best
Drunk acting I’ve ever seen , please research
This people, not easy to do !
OMG that scene was funny when BH was trapped in the hallway with that cutie pie
Sure was. It was supposed to be a parody of the lead characters on the shows Cannon and Police Woman.
Police Woman: "Oh, I hope you won't hold it against me."
Cannon: "That's exactly what I've BEEN doing."
LOL !
Correction, there was 2 cutie pies.
I love these old 70s detective show s.
of all the episodes this one is one of the best !! thx so much for sharing!!
I love the 70s detective shows and this was great 🔎🔍
❤ 1970s tv detective shows
Benny Hill was a comedic GENIUS. Fantastic!!! Always gets me laughing. All these characters were Great
Benny was spot on with ever impersonation. There is no one today who can match Benny.
A Quinn Marton, Barton, Harton, Larton & Fargo production.
LOLOLOLOLOL 😆
That was absolutely brilliant!
It was and people disagreeing must have a very staid existence.
Paul langton am a big fan of late benny hill his shows was very very fun fun very fun rest in peace
Remember seeing this in the 70s . One of his best out of many brilliant sketches. He wasn't known in the US when this was broadcast
What a talent he was. A true one of a kind!
Ohhh, I needed that! Benny Hill was my favorite! I loved him! ❤️
My hero ❤ benny hill
Woow.. He is amazing.. How he could give that perfect southern accent..
He was brilliant
that American accent was awesome...
you cant beat this for a laugh
Бенни Хилл, как всегда крут!!! Benny Hill is always cool!!!
Barnaby Jones, McCloud, Police Woman, Kojak, Ironside, Cannon
This is a Quinn, Martin, Farton, Darton, etc Production (😆)
Hercule Poirot...
I was hoping to see Columbo too.
@@Martin_Daniel Pork piketing !
thank you, my favorite series when I was a kid in the 70s
That was the funniest Benny Hill sketch, ever!
One of the best of many many great ones
Un grandissimo artista R.I.P.
BENNY HILL
GRAZIE PER AVERCI FATTO DIVRRTIRE DAVVERO TANTO.🤗💋
Just brilliant. So funny.
The wheelchair part makes me cry laughing so hard. Lmfao!
It is a sin Benny Hill was not elected Prime Minister of England.
He was and if he was'nt who's that clown in charge?
@@dermot51 Wah wah wah...
Not only that, to add insult to injury, the Tories have installed a comedian called Boris Johnson.
LOL, I would LOVE to see his cabinet!
Benny did Cannon beautifully.Wonder if Bill Conrad was watching this?
Hilarious. The best comedy
all I know is what I don't know,
but I do know this, that benny
sure did know everything!
Absolutely hilarious.
I can't help wonder if Benny would have made a good Hercule Poirot for real. I think he would have been ace.
"I have to, but you" Brilliant
Hilarious take on the 70s detective shows from the USA. Lol. Classic Benny Hill
Chad Quick Especially when he did a spoof of Kojak.
the girl on the train is jenny lee wright who was born in 1947 and still beautiful today 💖
I can well believe it. I can't quite decide if she or Valerie Leon had the biggest influence on my boyhood mind!
AS a kid (ok, a much younger adult, which today for me is a kid), I used to crack up watching Benny as Ironside rolling up & down the aisle as the train accelerated/decelerated. Funny stuff!
the pleasure was all mine......"Don't you believe it",... a classic that im gonna use
One of the best hits by the great benny.
And not to mention man's laughter !
LOL I just love Benny Hill and I remember this episode
Just Brilliant!
His character transition and double takes are awesome.
!He was the best!
One of the most amazing things I ever saw. Funny on so many levels. & You do realize it was Benny Playing all of those roles?
Kept on waiting for Columbo

Really, he played ALL the rolls? Did a damn fine Pepper Anderson!
@@paulmanly3694
Columbo was played by Jackie Wright
Except Pepper!
All the impressions,,, his the best at this and probably the first,,, Benny hill love the show,,,
One of best southern accents i heard.
I remember watching this at the time and laughing when the shows he was taking the micky out of were on the box. Never forgot it in all these years. Thanks for putting up.
Beautiful! I know I have seen this before, but it always makes me laugh!

@@jerikropp6394 I always thought that Weaver was a native Oklahoman, like James Garner. So I was disappointed to find out he was from Missouri. :-/
gorgeous jenny lee wright
jenny lee wright, fit as
This was a tour de force of brilliant. comic talent.You won't see his like again
Hahaha brilliant benny hill
Nobody did it better than Benny
Mc Cloud " I know everything "

This skit was brilliant.
One of his best ever
absolutely brilliant ,benny hill at his best 😂
LOL ...
I literally laughed till tears . No Joke ! I’ve never seen a comic this funny in A looong time .
If you haven't seen it on YT, check out
Benny's 'Sale of The Half Century'.
To create that sketch took a lot of filming, and a lot of talent.
"Don't you believe it". 😁
Laughed my ass off,loved ironside.
Benny Hill a natural! Funny n cool!!
Keep me laughing it's ok food from shops Benny makes you stronger
Maybe the best show ever.
After watching this i'm worried i'm going to be arrested for man's laughter :)

I hope this train stops at the local station, I need to get on it.
Hiii beautiful
Come set with me Issy Malin!!!
