	The Benny Hill Show
		However, what most audiences outside of the United Kingdom know as The Benny Hill Show, was in fact a compilation series of 111 half-hour episodes, composed of sketches and numbers drawn from his British ITV series produced over a 20 year period from 1969 to 1989, and syndicated on American television from 1979 onwards.
		Hill's television career was launched in 1955 and his show ran, off and on, on the BBC until 1968 with a brief season with ATV in 1967.
		Hill was adept at buffoons who on a slightly closer inspection turned out to be both sly and lecherous.

		Benny Hill Complete and Unadulterated catches the boyish, British comedian just after he ended a long association with the BBC (where he was a busy star) and leaped to the commercial Thames Television in 1969, where he enjoyed creative control and successful syndication in America for 20 years.
		Benny Hill Complete and Unadulterated: The Naughty Early Years, Set Two (1972-1974), a sequel to the delightful Set One (1969-1971), continues opening the vaults on Hill's burlesque and satiric legacy at the Thames Television network.
		Benny Hill was always best at quasi-silent slapstick, so it's no surprise that some of the best stuff on The Best of Benny Hill seems to owe more to the work of Mack Sennett and Fatty Arbuckle than to mainstream TV comedy.

		Although originally broadcast in the late ‘50s, The Benny Hill Show came into its own with the bawdy lampoonery of the late ‘60s and ‘70s Thames Television episodes, during which the rubbery-faced Hill gained worldwide popularity that stretched as far as Angola, China and the Soviet Union.
		Still a hoot and a half today, Benny and his talented ensemble (including long-time players Henry McGee, Bob Todd and Jackie Wright as the little old bald man) were not afraid to take a tongue-in-cheek approach in satirizing society’s taboos.

	Comedian: Benny Hill
		After he was demobbed from the army in 1947, Hill followed the traditional ciruit of working men's clubs and variety theatres - first using his own name, before settling on 'Benny' in homage to the US comic Jack Benny.
		I saw his shows during my teens, when they were shown on Finnish TV I used to like it but after a few years he DID seem to resemble a dirty old man more than anything else.
		Benny was a brilliant comedian and I'm sure many of the stories about hime stealing gags may have have a ring of truth, but are probably exaggerated.
