Benny Hill. The naughty early years Set two, 1972-1974

Hill, Benny, 1925-1992 (Added Author). A & E Home Video (Firm) (Added Author).

Summary: "Benny Hill - Britain's baron of bawdy buffoonery - bursts into full bloom in this boisterous collection from the Thames Years, his golden fan-favorite era! Wildly popular all over the globe thanks to his trademark smirk and affinity for comic naughtiness, Benny rejuvenated the sketch-variety genre with his multi-award-winning The Benny Hill Show. Satirizing everything under the sun, but sanitizing nothing, Benny and his crackerjack team of entertainers invented a squadron of crazy caricatures: lovable imbecile Fred Scuttle, avant-garde French filmmaker Pierre de Tierre, verbally challenged Mr. Chow Mein, and the unfortunately named Mervyn Cruddy. Backed by Benny's half-dressed flock of frisky foxes, The Benny Hill Show continues to stand the test of time by making the world laugh itself silly. The Naughty Years: Set 2 features all 10 riotous episodes from 1972 - 1974. Never before shown in full length form in the U.S., the only way to see these vintage Thames episodes in their entirety is through this exclusive DVD collection!"--Container.
