I havent watched ill in YEARS I was probably 8 or 9 the last time i saw it. I used to like it when he would smack that little guy on the top of the head. :D
The little old bald guy is a legend. His name is 'Little' Jackie Wright. Keep an eye open for the Benny Hill bio that's on the History or the Biography channel.
Benny, like many of the alltime great comics and comedians (and I go by the oldschool distinction between the two) apparently was much of a loner and never much of a happy fellow.
