My favorite skit was two guys converging on a park bench, each trying to beat the other to get to it. One finally does get there first and then the other holds out a sign that says ‘Wet Paint’...................

Same here. Something else I’d like to see again is the old Paul hogan show that came later.

Always enjoyed the evenings with Benny Hill, followed by Dave Allen at Large.

Ah, the memories and the laughs that man shared with us.

Hill’s Angels. Fred Scuttle. And the Yakety Sax chase scenes!

We miss you, Benny.

One night I heard my dad in his tv room laughing his *** off. Had to ask, what was he watching? He said, sit down and watch. Before long, the two of us were laughing so hard and loud, my mother yelled for us to quiet down. The windows were open and the neighbors could hear us.

That was my introduction to Benny Hill. Eventually, my mother put aside her propriety and watched with us. We all became big fans.

Rest in peace, Benny Hill, and thank you for all the laughs.

I remember watching the reruns late at night as a kid. Miss those shows.
