That was classic, though if I looked like that I wouldn't admit to it, let alone paste my square jaw and chest for all to see.
Brent, you can see what I look like on my Last FM page.

That's because you're a conservative Englishman! Stiff upper lip and all..."Pip Pip..Cherrio".;)

Yes...the minds of generations of good English "boys & girls" will be forever damaged by the comedy of Benny Hill (other countries as well)!;)

The weird thing is...even though it's been a long time since the Benny Hill shows were made...much of the "good stuff" in the shows still can't be aired on U.S. television!!!:(

Or if it is "air-able" on some channels at some times of the evening (since some of the rules seem to have been relaxed a bit compared to say 10-20 years ago)...the show (I guess) is old enough that TV stations simply aren't airing it because the show is old.

I haven't seen a Benny Hill show on U.S. TV in many years!:(

Oh they don't show them here now either, not even on UK Gold, but there was never any censorship here.
How odd that in the US they will censor what is basically mild tittilation at best, not anything like even the mildest porn, and yet HBO can quite happily air (the astounding) Six Feet Under, which had more than it's fair share of sex scenes, both gay and straight.
For sure things have changed in 20 years, no doubt, but censoring Benny Hill is just so funny to me (funnier than the program was!)

Oh, yeah sorry Brent, thread hijack gone mad, but I'm sure you'll enjoy reading it.
