Television?s sauciest lad assaults the BIG screen? with BIG laughs!

One of Britains top comedians and entertainers, Benny Hill and his many characters have been acclaimed throughout the world, making audiences laugh since the early 1950s. Bennys brilliant observation and meticulous attention to detail brought to life sketches which ranged from pure slapstick to social comment, with some music thrown in along the way, but always ending in the traditional and classic chase to the sounds of Yackety Sax. In 1974, with his top-rating TV series still riding high on the airwaves, Benny brought all his favourite sketches together in one big feature-film extravaganza titled THE BEST OF BENNY HILL. From the avant garde French movie director being interviewed for television, the elderly inhabitant of an old folks home playing strip poker with his nurse to a chat-show host dealing with a monosyllabic starlet, all his favourite moments and characters are on show, with Bennys great comedic musical numbers too. Available for the first time on DVD, THE BEST OF BENNY HILL is a testament to his legacy and enduring popularity with audiences everywhere and includes all Bennys TV regulars including Bob Todd, Henry McGee and Nicholas Parsons.
