lBE: Well, he obviously did not write the entire shows, and there is documentation of that. However he paid enough to the real writers that they were happy not receiving credit.
Riaz Ullah not by Thames television he wasn’t, he gave them 25 year’s service and they washed their hands of him when people were calling him sexist etc. It killed him.
He was the greatest. Everyone, everyone used to rush home to watch his shows when I was a kid, because if you missed it, you couldn't join in the conversations at school about it the next day.
Benny Hill was brilliantly funny. My cousin and I could not stop laughing. He was so shy and didn’t have any girl friends and was respected by all the women he worked with. He remains a great comedian.
Georgia his first girlfriend wanted to marry him but he wasn't ready to settle. Then he proposed to an actress and another colleague who went on to marry Bob Monkhouse's wife as well. He had women but not long term relationship s
Destroyed by Thames Television who cancelled his still popular show for not being politically correct. He still cracks me up with laughter after all these years and he's still recognised to this day for being a comic genius all over the world. It was harmless fun and all the ladies who worked with him loved and respected him.
What a damned shame... Benny got cancelled, not because his show wasn’t still popular, he got canceled because somebody went woke and thought he wasn’t appropriate for television anymore. Taking Benny of the air like that broke his heart and took away his purpose to create and live. I think that contributed to his death. He lived to make the show. He didn’t have a wife or kids. He didn’t have any family. He lived rather modestly and spent most of his time at the studio coming up with material. His creative output pace and stamina were absolutely incredible. Week after week, he made his show, looked for new talent, collaborated with new people, launched many people’s careers. No one ever complained he didn’t treat them fairly. No on ever complained of any harassment. He just wanted to make people laugh. The executives at Thames took that away from him. I remember staying up late on Friday nights, sneaking to watch the show with my brothers, laughing our heads off! Good times. We’d never seen any thing like it. The wit, the sarcasm, the satire, the singing, the dancing, the plays on words! Benny was the complete comedic package! A true master! He took pieces from everywhere and made it his own original thing. RIP to Mr. Benny Hill and all the people who worked with you on your show. You are all missed by so many.
I remember years ago Johnny Carson wanted him on his show and Benny never went on. I AM SO GLAD HE DIDN'T. Benny is at a different (higher) level than Johnny and says to me that I call the shots (Benny Hill speaking) and not Johnny. Love that and I know people will yell at (or something like it) me, but I always thought Johnny was over rated and it was the guests, like Rickels and Hope and that ilk put Johnny on the map. Benny Hill put himself on the map and is BRILLIANT!!! Thanks. James.
He did not go to any of the talk show because he was scared of not being funny enough for the americans, until his manager convinced him after Thames brought his show to the USA where it became a success. He then came to New York and did some shows , he was really surprised by the fact he was an International star. Really an humble decent man!
Partially right about Carson, but the reason all those guys (and gals) "put him on the map" is that he knew when to shut up. He learned from his predecessors (Jack Parr and the inventor of late night talk shows, Steve Allen) that when you have an interesting guest you just give a little nudge and a bit of guidance and let them go. Unlike today's stable of hosts who have to make all the interviews about themselves.
Ben was not only a GENIUS!!! with his comedy sketches & his songs. But, he was also able to speak in several languages ASWELL!!! I just can't remember which languages or how many he was able to achieve. All I remember it was more than 4 I think!!! ( I may be wrong so please don't persicute me for that as someone would 😠 ) Maybe someone else may know the answer to that. 👍😉.
1986- It's a Funny, It's a Funny, It's a Funny Old World 2020- It's a Depression, It's a Terrible, It's a Sucidal New World I'd rather be dead than live in this miserable present day (any chance of a time machine anyone?)
Well remembered! He changed his name to Benny in tribute to his favourite comedian Jack Benny. It suits him so well, I cannot imagine him as an Alfred!

@@KB4QAA > Agreement is agreement - money talks !!!!
RIP Benny, died alone in his apartment with the TV on, but he will NEVER be forgotten.
Just think, no one was nagging him. What a way to go!
Gosh. I sure hope that show isn't still on.
@@rikkilleen3169better than the crap of today, no women with tattoos or piercings hanging out, just feminine women, no gender benders, life so good.
Benny Hill - one of my absolute heroes. Great stuff.
Not only was Benny brilliant but such an incredibly talented cast!
Very funny, you often don't appreciate genius until it's gone. Benny Hill was superb.
Benny has always been appreciated and always will be.
THATS WHY I DONT WANT TO GO
Riaz Ullah not by Thames television he wasn’t, he gave them 25 year’s service and they washed their hands of him when people were calling him sexist etc. It killed him.
Way funnier than Lucille Ball or Carol Burnett.
@@Eleventhearlofmarsgender bender freaks.
That first song with the edited skipping had me in hysterics!!! He was a man of many talents. Gone but never forgotten.
Benny is a pure legend!
Loved Benny Hill. I can remember when I read of his passing. I cried.
His shows were a kind of burlesque, never over the top, but just right.
Funniest comedian, parody artist of all time! I think a lot of shows mimicked their artistry during, and after his.
Benny was the ultimate comedian! How I miss these old days.
Always loved Benny Hill and I always will !
Benny the best and most creative comedian ever his videos will be watched and popular till the end of time genius.
a true comedic genius. Best of the best.
He was the greatest. Everyone, everyone used to rush home to watch his shows when I was a kid, because if you missed it, you couldn't join in the conversations at school about it the next day.
Benny Hill= comedic genius.
I really liked watching Benny Hill. I sure miss him.
I miss him too.
How clean and original England was!
The British had absolutely zero idea what they had!
A tv-show is representative for the whole of England to you? Ok ...
And now? No?
(I am from Moscow).
Withe the punks and heroin of the late 70s and 80s on the streets?
This British were famous for many things in those times..they built lovely cars too
With all the covid nonsense on tv today it's nice to put a bit of Benny on to cheer you up, and to remind you what proper comedy was.
March 89 how time flies god bless ya Banny

The routine with the dancers at 5:44, where the black dress keeps switchibg around, was an act of genius on the part of the film editor.

A time when we didn't take ourselves too seriously.. Not like today. 🙄🙄
Best before March of 89 LOL
I just now got the Cafe Ole joke!
Brick layers lay bricks and why don't plumbers lay plumbs. This is another classic one.
Not on here, but another motto that's a fave is "Be Alert - we need all the lerts we can get."
Yes the Best Comedians
England's best comedian ever.
bloody geniuess mines a pint
i like the dance and song at 5:50. I really do
The old guy on the right was doing the stanky leg before it was a thing.
1:18 Benny Hill was TH-cam Pooping Before it was Cool. Lol!
FiletOfSole1 I
this is what i thought too lol
I like the way she called him by his real name of Alfred.
cresentltd It sounded like his name was 'Arthur', i could be wrong....
synthonaplinth no she really called him Alfred, I wasn’t sure myself so I played it again and yes she did called him Alfred
Il y a des morts qui nous manquent et d autres pas du tout , benny fait partie de ceux qui nous manquent .
He was the Charlie Chaplin of Our Era. Too Bad he was gone So soon and All Alone too, that is Sad.
Best show for cheap thrills.
If you look closely, you can see Benny is wearing a Sooty badge, and a Railway Series illustration badge with Gordon on it.
B.H my you live on cheers
1986- It's a Funny, It's a Funny, It's a Funny Old World

Great humour
Classic🖤💛❤️😂😆😅👍🇦🇺
Did anyone noticed that the woman called him Alfred, which by the way is his real name, Alfred Hawthorne Hill aka Benny Hill
Well remembered! He changed his name to Benny in tribute to his favourite comedian Jack Benny. It suits him so well, I cannot imagine him as an Alfred!
