Benny Hill was a quiet, private man with a beautiful soul and incredible sense of humor. Like Rodney Dangerfield, he gave the world far more joy than it gave him. Thank you, Benny. May you be resting and laughing in peace.
I read his biography years ago, his cheques from the shows would still be sitting on his mantelpiece weeks later, his agent kept telling him to put them into the bank. He just loved his work and didn’t seemed too bothered about the money.
I honestly believe this has got to be one of the best comedy songs ever written. So funny a classic. but of course, it would never be allowed now, far too politically incorrect.
God bless Benny Hill. I hope he’s looking down on us from heaven and seeing how many millions of people are still laughing at his hilarious antics. This was a big hit in the UK spending four weeks at number 1. Thanks so much for sharing this in its proper aspect ratio and with great sound. 👍
Brilliant humour. Its got everything: Benny's milkmans past, endearing flawed characters, tongue twisting poetry, and an enigmatic Benny's afterlife twist at the end. Gold.
I grew up with Benny Hill, my sister and I would watch his shows and laugh our bloody heads off. So so funny and saucy great honour for adults and kids .... today the political do good brigade wouldn’t want this ‘what they call smut’ on the TV. But all the tv with violence, murders, rapes... etc is okay.... back in the 70’s there was some great stuff on TV.
Today, you can't have innocent smut that makes people laugh but must have the utter depravity of full sex taking place before your eyes and the thinly veiled BBH.
I used to do work for Alf (Benny Hill) at his Southampton home, and even off-screen he was just as dry witted and hilarious. He was such a brilliant comic genius.
Like a lot of people I loved Benny Hills work. I never saw it as intimidating towards women, the men were always pathetic examples of manliness and the women were the dominant characters. I say bring back postcard humour, we can all laugh at that!
I know it all by heart too. I even sang it at karaoke. After I did, the DJ said, "Nobody sang Benny Hill before". Next time, I'll sing "Garden of Love".
I'm 24 years old, I know this song word for word thanks to my dad, I'm told that I'm sad knowing this but I grew up know this music, it may be before my time but this doesn't mean it's not a wicked song!!
I was at a Grammar School in Southampton when this came out, Our Maths Master had a fearsome reputation but his christian name was Ernest, affectionately know as Ernie. As a class we bought him the record, It must have touched him because we got on great after that !!!
Utterly superb British comedy at its 1970s finest. They don't make em like Benny Hill anymore and thety never will again. Oh please please bring my Curly Wurly and the next series of 'The Benny Hill Show'.
Remember this soo well, me and my lovely dad💖, set off 6 in the morning for Scotland, only 11 at the time🤫,who comes on radio only benny Hill.we'll worth it, do it all again if I could, thanks dad💖💯👌, rip
Play him some "CADBURY FLAKE GIRLS" on You Tube and watch the wide wide smile i guess he will be a "poppy " me i'm more "woman in canoe " it's a age thing now gone in a pc world
"And he looked up in pained surprise and the concrete hardened crust Of a stale pork pie caught him in the eye, and Ernie bit the dust." Eat you heart out Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen, those are great lyrics!
It is "And he looked up in pained surprise AS the concrete hardened crust Of a stale pork pie caught him in the eye, and Ernie bit the dust." A bit pedantic but the best lyrics ever!
It's great to hear original music. I can't believe this was made in the last 20 minutes of a studio session, and Larry Verron was the studio janitor, and it was his voice that made him stand out.
My dad used to sing this to me as a kid. Absolute comedic genius was Benny Hill,but like many of the true great comedians led a very private,often lonely & humble life. He lived to make others laugh & he sure did that.
@@fulhambob1 not really there are many better comedians benny hill would be in my top 10 but not 5 .definitely prefer other older sketch artists and comedians like the two ronnies or bobby ball.I also like modern comedians like russel howard and romesh ranganathan.Maybe it's just cos the times change and I prefer new comedy and evolving humour or maybe its another reason either way I don't think modern comedy or older comedy is better than one another.
@Lynchology101 calm down mate not everyone has to enjoy what you do.Peter Kay,Michael mcyintyre and Russel Howard are all hacks then? People spend millions to see hacks? Why would they do that ?
Utterly wonderful. One of earliest records my parents bought for me.....Robinson Crusoe. Dadada dada...White Horses....The Flashing Blade..Abba ...and Gareth Edwards...oh for the 70s once more!!
❤ People used to call me Benny. But I was exceptionally pleased when this song was in the Top of the Pops charts. The street that is in the song is in Eastleigh. Where I used to spend my pocket money in the local shops (Market Street)
@@mistamethylbrot2187 Its what is called double entendre. Pasteurized is used as "past your eyes", the song is referring to the Male sex organ. Therefore Ernie is saying" would you like it past your eyes", and her reply is "I'll be happy if it comes up to my chest!!".
I loved this as a child -we were allowed to stay up and watch this on Top of the Pops! My grandfather had his own milk business at the time, so it really connected with us!
Brings back some of memories of the good old days. Especially if you were up for a laugh. Wish he never aged beyond 51. So he'd still be with us now with brand of naughty, but nice sense of humor.
Benny Hill .... thankfully, he also made communist that time POLAND laughing all the way, when his show was from time to time, appearing on national Polish Television Network !!!!
Absobloodylutely!!! He was awesome and unsensored God bless Benny and for making our boring wet Sunday afternoon's more enjoyable thank you sir you were a gent nobody ever seemed to have a bad word to say about him either I'm thankful for being there the first time he was on TV absolute compulsory viewing ❤️🇬🇧
Great memories from a comedy legend. Putting Benny together with Bob Todd and Jackie Wright was a masterstroke. I can still cry with laughing now RIP BENNY
No1 the day we first got a colour TV, remember this actual film shown on Top Of The Tops.Ernie rushed out into the street with his gold top in his hand !.Brilliant , witty lyrics, you'll never forget !.
I just heard this on the radio 📻 today and googled it and laughed so much!!🤣🤣🤣 Absolutely 💯 loved Benny Hill ...what a classic show still in 2021!!!. ❤Long live Benny Hill in our hearts❤.
Benny hill used to be my nans and granddads milkman in Eastleigh Southampton old like to know who the person is who puts on fresh flowers on his grave. whoever you are thank you
+Brian Michael Richards Round 37 at Fair Oak was Benny Hill's round. I did the adjoining round #42 for 2 years from 1980 when I worked for Unigate. I did about 15 houses at the top of the old Fair Oak Road that were once on his round. One 90 yo lady showed me a photo of her and Benny Hill, one of the national papers did an article on him when he became famous and they visited her house for the story. Only one man at the dairy in Factory Road was left from when Benny Hill worked there but he spoke of what an incredibly funny and top bloke he was.A great comedian, yes dated now but still enjoyable to watch.
One word LEGEND !!!! What a sad day when Benny died . I miss seeing him on tv etc . He is so funny . What a lovely guy he was . Ben Elton etc could even polish his shoes . Benny was incredible . What a great comic up there with laurel and hardy . God bless you Benny
Very few comeduians could match Laurel and Hardy - only really Benny Hill, Eric & Ernie (the other one!) and The Two Ronnies 0 indeed they can, in many packed programmes !
It's great to hear original music. This song was recorded in the last 20 minutes of a studio session. Larry Vern was the janitor at the time, and it's his amazing voice that made this song great.
Remember recovering from Hep A in 73 at a Sydney hospital when the nurse noticed I was doubled over laughing while watching Benny in a "top of the pops" skit on the TV; he was playing Roy Orbison. She then told me she was his sister and we became good friends. Sadly she died of breast cancer 10 years later.

Christmas no 1 in 1971. 52 years ago. Classic.
And competing with the likes of T Rex and Slade

Oh thanks for that ! ..I'm soo frkin old 😂😂
Same age as poor Ernie was when he bit the dust 😢
Year u was born
I’m an Ernie and often when I introduced myself I would get, “Ah, the fastest milkman in the west.” I loved Benny Hill.
Our milkman we had at the time it was in the charts was called Ernie 😂
it's cool name
what a classic,
Brilliant 😂😂😂
The world was a better place with Benny Hill in it.
70s and 80s brittish comedy was the best.. grew up on it here in Ireland. Sad we now live in an age where harmless fun is a crime.
people look for something to offend them now phillip instead of not watching, then they complain instead of scrolling past
Remember this from my schooldays 😂
Ohh Deeer
Ow Sadd
............
Nevver Minđ
In the days of innocent innuendo. Sadly not applicable today. Benny Hill was basically a child that never grew up, nothing evil.
He was much more than that$
hmm he apparently insisted that his "Hills Angels" gave him blowjobs to get the work...but yeah the public comedy is just silly stuff really
Let's be honest-we're all grown up kids......
Don’t “grow-up” it’s a trap.
You wouldn't be able to get away with saying things like that nowadays.
The simple fact that people are watching this in 2024 and loving it is testament to how cherished Benny still is.Never be teplaced😂😂😂❤❤
Poor Ernie and e drove the fasted milk cart in the west. 😂
One of the best novelty records ever- thumbs up if you agree!

Who else thinks this song is just a classic
All of Benny Hill's songs were classics...
I honestly believe this has got to be one of the best comedy songs ever written. So funny a classic. but of course, it would never be allowed now, far too politically incorrect.
Oh yes
Why do you want to know that ?
I listen to it for the craic
Times when the world was sane, Loved Benny Hill, and now we have what we have, i watch him whenever i feel like it.Long live Benny :)

Benny, you are a LEGEND! 😂
R.I.P.
I haven't heard this song in almost 50 years. Yet many of the lyrics leapt straight back into my mind.
ditto
I've heard a different version of it, too rude to repeat!🤣🤣🤣👍
I was 10 when this hit the charts. My Nana loved Benny Hill. Miss them both. Rip Nana and Benny.
A very talented comic who is irreplaceable. Very sad how he was treated in later years by the Television company who behaved very badly towards him.
Indeed and he was loved in the US and around the world. Not many UK comics can say that !
They were probably green eyed because Benny had more brains than that shower put together.
yeah because the P C Brigade were starting up and THAMES Television gave into them ! Of what was a harmless T V comedy programme
Always the way he made them a fortune over the years .and that’s what he got for it ..absolute one of benny ..
Yes, his style of comedy fell out of favour, so he was just discarded like yesterdays newspaper. such a shame.
He was bloody brilliant, he brightened up my childhood :)

Second Unit Aerials such a shame the pricks at Thames / itv dropped such a talent.
Let’s not forget Henry McGee playing Ted, probably one of the best straight men to a comedian. His accent was so clipped and precise.
I Probably haven't heard this for at least 3 decades and yet I still know it word for word . . .
Hugh Fathers me also, especially the last bit from the fight onwards.

Here in Australia, it hit #1 the week of February 19, 1972. I distinctly remember hearing it on the radio in the morning before school.
Wonderful, wonderful. There'll never be another Benniy - nor Henry McGee, his perfect foil.
He was great as a guest character in Rising Damp too, wasn’t he? “Could you see your way to lending me a tenner, Rigsby, old chap?” 🤣
This is magical ✨
Or Jackie Wright for that matter - who knew a bald head could create so much humour.
And Jan Butlin, who was "the widow Sue" here. Probably the last thing she did for Hill.
another loss,no bad language, just pure entertainment, thank you Benny R.I.P.
Just a class act.
LOL. Low class maybe, yes.
No bad language? What about that cocoa?
