Benny Hill holds a special place in my heart.......2004-08-19

Benny Hill holds a special place in my heart. I used to watch it on channel 9-WOR TV here in NYC (about 20 years prior to the UPN age)..boy oh boy! that channel and tv in general has really changed But then at time I could always look forward to watching Benny Hill at about 730...I used to get all happy when the Big Ben-Thames logo would pop up and then the do-doo-do-doo theme would play. Then it was on...I'd look at Grampa and then Benny would hit that baldguy on his head and then i'd pat my grampas head...that chase was always the best i used to drive my grandmother nuts running all around the house like a little lunatic...jumping on the bed and all that good stuff...yep i used to make believe I was getting chased around by Benny and crew too.Benny Hill was a happy childhood memory.May you Rest in Peace Mr. Hill, thankyou for keeping me laughing all these years.

For hardcore Benny Hill fans.......2003-10-13

This DVD is certainly for fans of Benny Hill, and for those who don't get it, they may as well skip it. There are fewer skits than in Golden Classics(AISN:B0000714A9), but they are longer skits. A plus for this DVD is the inclusion of Hill's Little Angels skits. There is a photo gallery and biography information, and background information that will give one a bit of Information on the connection between 'Daphne' (from Fraiser) and Hills Angels. If a person is seeking to gather a collection of Benny Hill skits and gags, this DVD will fit the bill nicely. Menus are easy to use, and it is quick to find one's favorits skits.

Were is the good stuff.......2003-02-02

It is Benny Hill so it will always be funny. However, I prefer the stuff I used to watch when I was a kid.

This is almost like the clean version of Benny Hill.
My question is: Where is the good stuff?

Anyway, the sound is mono and the picture quality is decent. These limitations are due to the original source. I particularly don't care much about those limitations and only care about the content.

Where are the racy stuffs?

Benny Hill compilation not too golden.......2002-09-15

I want to start off this review by stating that I still laughed out loud during some moments during this 2 disc compilation and will probably revisit this set again.

There were many classic sketches from Benny's 70's episodes which I thought should have been included, but it appears the sketches included on the set are from the mid to late 80's tv series. A compilation of sketches produced some years ago had more variety of Benny at his "classic" best.

The documentary was most enjoyable but more from an american perspective. It gave an insight to the comic genius and was of a reasonable length showing clips from his early tv series.

I am happy to announce the video transfer is of broadcast standard and that the mono soundtrack would not have benefited too much from a stereo soundtrack except for some musical sketches.

Whatever reason earlier 70s sketches could not be included should not deter customers too much. Benny Hill is still a unique performer who deserves to have a place in your comedy library.
