What happened to BENNY HILL

Benny Hill was a prominent figure in British culture for nearly four decades. His show proved to be one of the great success stories of television comedy and was among the most-watched programs in the world.

[@bonniebabyboo3095]

I am an American that absolutely "loved" Benny Hill and his shows. Never could see enough. R.I.P. Mr. Hill

[@zsuzsamold]

I grew up on Benny Hill. My mother and I would laugh and laugh and laugh. Thanks for giving me some of the fondest memories a boy could have with his mother.

[@misst.e.a.187]

[@jongbong]

Me too! I remember watching Benny Hill when I was a kid with my dad. He didn't care about the adult humor on the show. Now, as an adult, I am very thankful to my dad for allowing me to watch that show. Those were happy times in my life.

@@jonathanclarke281 Ha! Can't give you a thumbs up, but my mom thought it was really dirty when I was about 11 or 12 yrs old., around 1980. I was sneaking out of bed to watch Benny at 10:30 p.m.!! Years later my p's loved watching Benny reruns........ around 10 or so years ago.

[@Wolf359inc]

From Australia here. I am fifty, and have fond memories of watching the Benny Hill show with my family. Mum didn’t approve, but this, Dave Allen, the Goons, and the Marx Brothers were the few things that would cause dad to laugh out loud. Dad was an outwardly serious man, but he had a wicked sense of humour, when he chose to share it. Thanks for the memories.

If he had a brain, he would had spent his money and had the bypass surgery. There are people who had heart bypass surgery who lived well into their 70's and 80's and die of natural causes. Instead he was too misery to spend not even 2% of his wealth to save his own life.

@@theobjectivethinker64 A typically British take on sex. To many of us from an older generation, sex is just a bit of fun. Benny Hill was as you observe pointing out how silly most men become at the sight of an attractive female, especially those in various stages of undress. The girls in his shows weren't victims of sexual exploitation. They had a ball poking fun at the sheer daftness of men, which Benny's take got totally correct.

His comedy got me through surgery when I was 13 years old. I was a Benny Hill fan after that....and still am! I wish I could have told him that! Rest easy Benny, you are making the angels laugh now! :)

The thing with Benny hill was that mischievous coy grin that could lead to any thing, RIP, one of my childhood greats.

Benny Hill and his show in the US were classics. Always hysterical and really clean. He never had to resort to vulgarity to get a laugh. One of the all-time great comedians. RIP Benny and thank you so much!

[@stevent222]

That is what I loved about Benny Hill. You don't have to be nasty to be funny.

[@stevent222]

Yes I always thought of Benny Hill as the English version of Red Skelton his bits and gages were hilarious and not vulgar also.

And they're still entertaining to watch today.

No one can match Benny today, he was so so so so funny

[@Mediumal]

I remember Parkinson interviewing Mickey Rooney and the subject of comedy came up. Benny Hill had just started to be known in the US. Rooney was full of praise and said how much he loved Benny Hill. He said the guy is a genius. Americans get slapstick and sexual innuendo you see.

Growing up as a kid in the 80's, everyone loved roaring with laughter, watching Benny Hill on TV. Robin Williams and Benny Hill were without doubt, 2 of the funniest, most loved people the world has ever known and may their souls rest in peace for ever more, for the tremendous joy they gave to all of us. We have no doubt, they would have everyone in stitches of laughter, up there in heaven!

So very refreshing in a time when so-called "stars" dress to nines and forget who they were, once upon a time, and build trillion square foot mansions and spend two times that number for their houses!! Go With God, Mr. Hill, I am sure that somewhere, you're making the Angels laugh and the souls in Heaven crack up laughing, as well!! Thanks so much, Benny Hill, you're a gift.... 🙂🙂💗💗✝️⚜️

I loved Benny Hill so much. We watched his shows as young kids and I'll still watch him now, even though I'm in my 50s. His comedy never gets old. Same with the Carry On films, my brother and I loved them and of course it wasn't till we grew up that we got all the saucy jokes, but comedy then was...really genuine somehow

[@sloppyjoe3671]

Benny's risqué humour along with that of Kenny Everett flew a bit over my young head in NZ in the 80s but I knew something had me tuning in each week!

@James Henderson - Like the openly gay Garth Ancier, who in 2007 as head of BBC America cancelled repeats of Hill's show and justified it with the usual cultural Marxist excuse that it was "no longer relevant" in today's society - while seeking to put shows promoting homosexuality and transgenderism in its place? Ancier - and Bryan Singer, and David Neuman and Gary Goddard - all have a lot to answer for, in terms of what they did to underaged boys.
