Benny Hill was a pioneer what a crack up. He put Bob Barker to shame Ah ?

But for all his popularity and genius, Benny died alone in an apartment furnished with only a small bed, black & white TV, and a chair. How sad is that?

I think it was more a case of a broken heart, they cancelled his show without warning and told him to go away because he was old, happens a lot these days doesn't it?

Well I liked Benny Hill wonder if I can find it on Pandora ? So how old is too old ? Jay seems to be motoring right along at a young 80 ?

Its hard to find the Benny Hill Show except for a "Best of" assortment that Netflix offers on their streaming service, Benny was only 68 when he died on April 20, 1992. Too young don't you think?
