Rik Mayall - he was one of Ben Elton's ilk wasn't he?

I don't think Alexei Sayle is funny but Ben Elton' script writing e.g. Blackadder is genius.

If Benny Hill had changed his routine he would have been in the public eye longer.

OK mate. You know best.

On that point I agree.

Yep. You know best.
 
Recently watched the Italian Job and he's brilliant in that and deliberately cast by the Producers as they wanted a robbery movie with a comedy element and not too real to life. Those minis and that car chase, it stands the test of time even though it's 40 years ago. RIP Benny Hill.
 
On 28 December 2006, Channel 4 broadcast the documentary Is Benny Hill Still Funny?. The programme featured an audience that comprised a cross-section of young adults who had little or no knowledge of Hill, to discover whether Hill's comedy was valid to a generation that enjoyed the likes of Little Britain, The Catherine Tate Show and Borat. The participants were asked to watch a 30-minute compilation that included examples of Hill's humour from both his BBC and ITV shows. The responses and results demonstrated that none of the sample of viewers took offence at any of the sketches shown. Hill's silent "Wishing Well" sketch was discovered to be the most popular. The alternative comedian Ben Elton, who had criticised Hill for sexism, was interviewed in the programme. Elton said he still had reservations about certain aspects of Hill's sketches, but claimed to be an admirer of Hill's talent and abilities as a comic performer.

the winning sketch is this

You could hear his knockers pound as he raced across the ground
and the clatter of his prick as he swung it round and round
as he galloped into market street without his pants and vest
his name was ernie and he had the biggest chopper in the west.

now ernie fucked a widow a lady known as sue
who lived all alone on liddley lane at number 22
they said they was too good for him
she was haughty, fair and chic
but ernie got his end away three times every week




I can't remember the rest, but I seem to recall it ending with ernie being hit with a size 10 spunk ball underneath his heart.
