    I’ve always held Benny Hill to be a top contender (if not THE TOP) for the gold standard of slapstick comedy – right up there with Charlie Chapman and the Three Stooges.

    My reasons:
    1. Timeless slapstick – includes epic chase scenes.
    2. Genius poetic monologues (includes songs).
    3. Skimpy-dressed attractive women (without piercings, tattoos, & unnatural hair color).

    Robin Hood skit:

    What are some of your favorite moments/skits?

    Thank you! I loved Benny Hill as a kid. Where I grew up we had THF, two f~~~in’ channels. Not really, we had three but one was French.

    Benny Hill was something I’d watch with my Dad. I always made a snack before it came on. Usually, two mini meat pies. I would get them out of the oven with five minutes to spare before the show began. I knew I was gonna get to see a chick in her underwear!

    Benny Hill ROCKED!

    mAY HIs COMeDy LiVE ON!

    I loved this show when I was a kid!
    Bought the entire set of DVD’s few years back, and noticed that I love it even more now!
    There is so much stuff in the show that I naturally missed as a child.

    My late grandpa had many episodes on VHS. I used to stay up late and watch them as a kid… great stuff!

    Not much of the stuff is in the UTOOB, unfortunately.
    My personal favorites are the skits where Benny is speaking in “languages”.
    That one particular skit with Jacques(Benny…naturally), really hot french chick and a cake would fit this forum’s topic perfectly.
    Benny’s “German” is f~~~ing hilarious!
    This guy was way ahead of his time.

    Benny Hill was awesome, a little before my time but re-runs were still going on as I was growing up. My dad loved Benny Hill and hated my Dad would let me watch too lol.
