Thank you for joining us for a laugh while we react to Benny Hill's hilarious "Wife-Swap" sketch! Did this classic comedy sketch crack you up as much as it did us? If so, please give this video a thumbs up, subscribe to our channel, and don't hesitate to share your favorite Benny Hill moments in the comments below. Let's keep the laughter and good vibes flowing, friends!
The last entrant to the sketch - and greeted with rapturous applause - was Kathy Staff, very well known at the time for appearing in a soap opera called Crossroads and as Nora Batty in the classic comedy series Last Of The Summer Wine. The husband, Henry McGee, had appeared in several roles with Benny Hill and was in a commercial for Sugar Puffs breakfast cereal along with the Sugar Puffs 'Honey Monster' and appeared in many comedy movies.
There is one skit where they are giving out GANGSTER awards and Fred Scuttle (Benny Hill) plays a sheepish hustler interviewed and they show examples of his hustle. Prior to the awards a Police Bobby played by Fred Scuttle speaks about those Gang awards. It is piffle it is full of piff.
The opening joke is maybe of it's time. Wurlitzer made organs and jukeboxes (the music players that were in pubs and clubs in the 50's onwards, you see them in all the old rock n roll movies of the time) and Xerox made the old fax machines and photo copiers. So reproductive organs? Do you get the joke now? lol.
the woman who was the neighbours wife is one of the best loved actresses of her time in the uk every one knew her for playing nora batty in the long running tv show last of the summer wine. with over 300 episodes in 15 years
Benny Hill used to be a milkman (someone who would deliver milk from the dairy to the home every day) in Southampton. At his height he was one of the funniest comics around but was gradually cancelled by political correctness. Just north of Southampton is a town called Eastleigh and he is remembered there by having a street named after him - Benny Hill Close. His history as a milkman may have influenced his record, and show sketch, called Ernie, he drove the fastest milk cart in the west. You can probably find that to react to.
Seeing as you are such a Benny Hill fan can you tell us which is the funniest episode you watched after he ditched Hills Angels (note that it was Benny who stopped using them as his ratings were going down) and started featuring 'Hills Little Angels'? I am willing to bet 90% of what you know about Benny Hill revolves around Hills Angels sketches and you know (or care) little about his 1950s work at The Prince of Wales Theatre or his 1960s TV shows. Show me you are not T&A obsessed.
@@michaelkenny8540 I don’t have a favourite Benny Hill sketch and the reason I know the above is because I come from Southampton. I don’t care what you think but you come across as an a..hole.
The Benny Hill show was a variety show with tons of skits and entertainers, dancers, singers, etc. Benny was a genius. He also wrote the music and lyrics as well as the skits.
Ernie he drove the fastest milk cart in the west is a character Benny Hill played.... If you love Benny you'll love Freddie Starr well worth a reaction.
Fun fact: Benny was was invited to stay at Charlie Chaplin's house in Switzerland, when he got there, Charlie showed him into a room that was dedicated to him with every reel of film that benny had ever done and begged him for an autograph leaving benny stunned,, charlie was his biggest fan...
yeah his name is Benny Hill, was a great show back in the day, pretty sure this is from Bennie Hill in America, which came a few years after The Bennie Hill Show...he has some good songs as well...checkout his song 'Ernie' think it was around 70-71-72
Benny Hill...one of the most talented and funny entertainers ever. He did an All in the Family sketch that was hilarious and Benny was a PERFECT Archie Bunker! Ironically, there was a "swingers" episode on All in the Family too.
Benny Hill was what would be thought of as risque seaside comedy. Lots of scantily dressed women and slapstick humour. A lot thought it was sexist (I never did) but the ladies on the show, even after it was cancelled and Billy died, said that he was always a gentleman and did his best to look after them and treated them right. In fact he was godfather to at least one of the dancers children. He had his own dancing ladies, The Hills Angels, who would do musical numbers during the show. The theme tune to the show became famous and was and still played a lot for comedy circumstances, the theme tune being Yakety-Axe or Yakety-Yak. A lot of the silent slapstick sketches are speeded up and there would normally be a chase at the end of the show. Another reason why I never thought it was sexist was that the men always in the end are the ones who end up looking like fools or losing. The Benny Hill Show was actually very popular in the States and a lot of Americans of the time would know about Benny. I would suggest you look at some more Benny Hill and maybe some of the silent slapstick stuff.
Hills Angels were introduced to try and increase his ratings and were a based on Kenny Everett's Hot Gossip. They did not help stop the slide in his popularity (his audience had halved in 10 years) and after a while they were dropped as they got him bad reviews. He introduced 'Hill's Little Angels' to replace them (children, some of them kids of the dancers) but it did not work. His audiences still declined and he was cancelled. Strangely no one EVER posts clips of the shows with Hills Little Angels and its nearly all 'Hills Angels' sketches. I wonder why that is? (cue endless rants about 'politically correct/woke' revisionism......
There are at least 2 women who say they were asked to 'look after him' to get to be a dancer. Hazel O'Connor also said he propositioned her when (as a young girl) she went to his flat to try and become a dancer.
@@michaelkenny8540 I personally have never heard of those rumours so I can't comment on them unless you have some evidence to back up your claims. He did propose to 2 women in his life time, both refused. One was Annette Andre who said he asked her in the early '60's (she was born in 1939, so would have been in her 20's). As far as I know there were never anybody come forward during the investigations after Jimmy Saville case when they looked for past sexual predators. He became Sue Upton's (Hill's Angel and later would have a hand in suggesting dancers suitable to become a Hill's Angel) children's Godparent and was close friends with Sue and her husband. There were also rumours that he was gay, as her was a lifelong batchelor but he always denied this.
@@paulmaxey6377 a simple Google will get the 2 women's names. Hazel O 'Connor is also available via Google. Its not 'rumour' its accounts from the women themselves. Also look up what Bob Monkhouse says about how Benny and his sex life. It was considered standard practice for stars to abuse their position and even well-known names for example Norman Wisdom, made no attempt to hide their abuse.
Xerox - famous for copying machines (one of those brand names which is used as a verb - you Xerox a copy of a document); and Wurlitzer is, of course, the famous organ manufacturer.
Love Benny, & glad to see you younger folk enjoying this sketch. BTW… This routine actually predates Married With Children, & Benny had dine it, at least once before, in his early B&W shows. (Did you know that he also played the Toymaker in, “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang”?) Anyway… You might want to check out his full shows, but if you’re not into the entire experience, he has some really fun sketches like, “The Wishing Well” (Briefly featuring Dave “Darth Vader” Prowse!), “Bo Peep interpretations”, featuring “Naked Lust in Sinful Sweden”, Gavin Blod: The Man & His Music”, “Woodstick”, “Spot Black”, “The World of Sport”, & so many more! Enjoy!
I used to sing Ernie ( the fastest milkman in the west) to my daughter when she was just a toddler, she is all grown up now but she still loves it when I sing it. The b side to the record was ' Tingalingaloo ' such good memories we both hold dear.
Benny is a national treasure, even though he’s no longer with us. His comedy sketches are pure gold. Some half-baked feminists protested about his show being sexist (even though the girls on the show spoke very highly of him) and it was taken off the air in the U.K. but went on to become highly successful abroad. The decision to take it off air was not received well by the public here, we loved him, with his hilarious facial expressions and delivery, and his hilarious (if somewhat risqué for the time) sketches. Every show seemed to end with a speeded-up clip of him being chased by a horde of scantily clad women, to the iconic Benny Hill signature tune. His song “Ernie (The Fastest Milkman in the West) reached No.1 in the charts for Christmas 1971, with its accompanying video, and is well worth checking out.
The show you were thinking of with Archie and Edith Bunker was All In The Family, which was actually an American remake of the British show Till Death Us Do Part.
Xerox made photocopying and printing machines. Wurlitzer used to make old school electric organs, the type you used to find in cinemas and music halls back in the day.
Now ya going down a rabbit hole. Very funny times growing up as a kid. Dont forget the Paul Hogan show from Australia. The Paul Hogan Show: "Modern Living" (with Hoges and Strop)
You ought to react to two sketches from another UK comedian - Dick Emery 'The Driving Test' & 'The Milkman' - Jess should enjoy them, she's got a great laugh.
Benny Hill was aired at 7 or 8 pm and considered family viewing. Currently, he's considered sexist but ultimately he's the butt of all the jokes. In a business surrounded by scandel, there has never been any allegations of wrong doing and his female actors considered him a good family friend. His humour would create a lot anxiety among the fragile youth of the UK and the US,
I couldn't tell if they thought every episode was like an episode of married with children or if they understood that every episode had multiple skits with totally different characters and premises.
I loved this show it was on public tv in the US. Hard to explain but he was a really creepy guy(by todays standards) but was funny as hell at the same time. The supporting cast was awesome too.
Hi guys I love jess’s reactions you’ve got an addictive laugh . And both got a great sense of humour . As one off watch mick Miller the noddy sketch (booze related)and Sean lock my favourite comedian ever there’s heaps of stuff on utube and will get your subscriptions up by a mile
The two male characters were regulars and appeared on the comic hit single "Ernie - the fastest milkman in the west" Henry McGee playing the caddish rival in the comic love triangle tragedy.
Both Benny & Henry McGhee had a bit record in Britain with "Ernie the fastest milkman in the west", defo worth a watch.😂 The actress at the end was famous in her own right , Kathy Staff(I could be wrong with the surname. Aye thing 😂). She was in a programme that ran for aaaaages called Last of the summer wine and I'm pretty sure that was a cameo appearance as her character Nora Batty. And it's understandable thinking it was the 70's as that's when Benny was absolutely huge in the UK. Keep an coming guys, this is like regression therapy for me.😂👍
How was his accent for you guys, I mean I know he played an OTT New Yorker (and a OTT sitcom style one a that) but for back then and on UK TV that was a pretty epic American accent!
The opening joke "Wurlitzer and Xerox Merge / Reproductive Organs" refers to Xerox being the inventor of the photocopier (just new back then) and Wurlitzer being a musical organ and jukebox company.
The benny hill show ran from1964 till 1988 it was a sketch show benny hill was cancelled almost overnight woke feminists mainly as a kid of the 70s&80s i loved his sketches especially when he pat the little man on his bald head,i believe benny hill had a big following in the states.benny was in a number of films,chitty chitty bang bang,the italian job 1969.check out the halitosis kid,&the bank robbers sketch.
I grew up with Benny Hill, Love thy neighbour, mind you language, the dick emery show, man about the house, carry on films, dads army, it aint half hot mum, and other such great British comedies 😂
The Wurlitzer, musical instrument company was most famous for making electrical organs Xerox was the original and biggest maker of photo copy machines ( ie reproducing documents ).
The Benny Hill Show was on in Australia as a weekly TV show in the 70's I believe I used to watch it, maybe it was the 80's but that doesn't sound right to me I'm sure most of his work was before 1980
Basically Benny was from the 70s, this was not quite like his 70s stuff, which was usually quick hits, 3 minutes, 2 minutes, 5 minutes, an sometime no words just music and a sped up film.
Married With Children was the American take of a British show called Til Death Us Do Part. Basically another idea you stole from us, like The Office.🤣😂

.....also "America reacts to Benny Hill Learning all the Time". 70s
Type in BENNY HILL FRED SCUTTLE. Get ready to salute LMAO
Type in "how to cook Chinese (benny hill) 😅😅😅
I used to watch this show religiously, and I still find it very funny. Benny was a great comedic actor.
And writer
Benny was one of the greats!
True Benny Hill shows usually have multiple scenes, famous music, sped up funny chases, i can only recommend it.
Benny was a very funny man. Please watch more of him. xx
Benny Hill played the toy maker in the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang .
And the lecherous 'Professor Peach' in original "The Italian Job" film with Michael Caine.
The opening joke is maybe of it's time. Wurlitzer made organs and jukeboxes (the music players that were in pubs and clubs in the 50's onwards, you see them in all the old rock n roll movies of the time) and Xerox made the old fax machines and photo copiers.

Yes the Xerox photocopiers would be the reproductive part and the Wurlitzer would be the organ part.
the woman who was the neighbours wife is one of the best loved actresses of her time in the uk every one knew her for playing nora batty in the long running tv show last of the summer wine. with over 300 episodes in 15 years
Cathy Staff will always be ... Nora Batty!!

he also lived in a road that was a road that joined on to hill lane in southampton
The Benny Hill show was a variety show with tons of skits and entertainers, dancers, singers, etc. Benny was a genius. He also wrote the music and lyrics as well as the skits.
Werlitzer was a well known producers of organs (musical that is) and Xerox is a copier maker, thus produce more organs.
Or reproductive organs to be exact. So many great British comedies on TV. Another favorite is Are You Being Served.
The funniest part was both of you not getting that joke.
thank you for explaining this initial 'joke' to Mike and Jess - was dumbfounded they didn't 'get it' !
He was the Christmas number one record in 1971 with 'Ernie'. 'The Halitosis Kid' was a good sketch of his.
This predated Married With Children which ran from 1987 to 1997.
After I stopped laughing at you thinking this was a late night show, we’ll, back in the 80’s this was shown mid evening say 7:30 / 8:00 😂😂😂😂😂
Benny hill went back further back than the 70’s
Mid-evening? On our local PBS station it was 4:30 in the afternoon.
This was on at peak times like seven or eight and also weekends!
I was one of the lucky ones. Saw this all the time.
Hello there mr. And mrs. Gd eve and thanks to all your reaction.... from philippines we love you.. and gd bless everyone ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Benny hill was out long before married with children, a long time before
Used to watch this at a young age (less then ten years old) wouldn't get away with that nowadays!
I never noticed before but this is very similar to 'Married with Children' which I loved.
The correct name of the theme song is Yakety Sax.
Ernie he drove the fastest milk cart in the west is a character Benny Hill played.... If you love Benny you'll love Freddie Starr well worth a reaction.
Fun fact: Benny was was invited to stay at Charlie Chaplin's house in Switzerland, when he got there, Charlie showed him into a room that was dedicated to him with every reel of film that benny had ever done and begged him for an autograph leaving benny stunned,, charlie was his biggest fan...
Benny Hill is a legend of a comic.
Archie Bunker - i think was a US version of Alf Garnett (Till Death Us Do Part)
yeah his name is Benny Hill, was a great show back in the day, pretty sure this is from Bennie Hill in America, which came a few years after The Bennie Hill Show...he has some good songs as well...checkout his song 'Ernie' think it was around 70-71-72

I met Benny once I was tricked into sitting in on a production meeting once in the 80s ,just went along with the flow
National treasure
Best British comedy ever
It is hard to choose the best from Benny Hill, Monty Python, or Are You Being Served.
Please do more Benny Hill...he is SO funny! And you did a good reaction on this...
I always absolutely loved watching the Benny Hill show, but a lot of Americans don't get into the British humor.
Benny Hill played in the movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
So you don't want us to see the show otherwise you'd have made it visible instead of blending two screens. Brilliant.
Morecombe and wise making breakfast is an old but funny sketch
Xerox made photocopying and printing machines. Wurlitzer used to make old school electric organs, the type you used to find in cinemas and music halls back in the day.
Now ya going down a rabbit hole. Very funny times growing up as a kid. Dont forget the Paul Hogan show from Australia. The Paul Hogan Show: "Modern Living" (with Hoges and Strop)

Watch Benny Hill wishing well, it's only about a minute long but it's hilarious.
What now you get Our sence of humour in England cheers
I couldn't tell if they thought every episode was like an episode of married with children or if they understood that every episode had multiple skits with totally different characters and premises.
All In The Family; Archie & Edith Bunker.
Watch Harry Enfield the South African pharmacist you will be in tears with laughter
Benny the great in great British comedy 🎭
aah the almighty Nora Batty, actress Kathy Staff, great character actress, which brings us to a recommendation, "Last of the Summer Wine"
I loved this show it was on public tv in the US. Hard to explain but he was a really creepy guy(by todays standards) but was funny as hell at the same time. The supporting cast was awesome too.
Fun Fact: Benny's wife was played by Helen Horton, she was the voice of the ships computer (Mother) in the movie Alien.
You should also check out another British comedian; Dick Emery! His driving instructor sketch is hilarious!

Ah Benny Hill... her "I've never been so insulted in all my life!" him "That's 'cuz you don't get around enough!"
😂 brilliant 😂
The opening joke "Wurlitzer and Xerox Merge / Reproductive Organs" refers to Xerox being the inventor of the photocopier (just new back then) and Wurlitzer being a musical organ and jukebox company.
Benny Hill has tons of great skits! Lot's of cheesecake. Also, Paul Hogan (Crocodile Dundee) had a similar show in Australia about the same time.
you should check benny hills the birds and bees poem
British comedy don't use laugh tracks (ever). It's recorded in a studio and shown to a live theater audience.
All in the Family was the show you meant with Archie and Edith Bunker, played by Carrol O'Connor and Jean Stapleton, Sally Struthers and The Meathead.
The benny hill show ran from1964 till 1988 it was a sketch show benny hill was cancelled almost overnight woke feminists mainly as a kid of the 70s&80s i loved his sketches especially when he pat the little man on his bald head,i believe benny hill had a big following in the states.benny was in a number of films,chitty chitty bang bang,the italian job 1969.check out the halitosis kid,&the bank robbers sketch.
"Woke Feminists." Just goes to show you what a scourge the woke movement and cancel culture is.
In Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968) Benny Hill was the toy maker...
Love ur reactions to comedy,check out Catherine Tates,Angry Nan anger management.hilarious & the offensive translater.
The best!
I grew up with Benny Hill, Love thy neighbour, mind you language, the dick emery show, man about the house, carry on films, dads army, it aint half hot mum, and other such great British comedies 😂
Benny Hill got his start as a teenager entertaining people who were hiding in the London subways during Hitler’s WWII bombing campaign.
xerox is a photocopy machine and wurlitzer make musical organs
Please Please review Freddie Starr doing his vincent routine. Classic comedy
Never say never😉
The Wurlitzer, musical instrument company was most famous for making electrical organs
Xerox was the original and biggest maker of photo copy machines ( ie reproducing documents ).
The Benny Hill Show was on in Australia as a weekly TV show in the 70's I believe I used to watch it, maybe it was the 80's but that doesn't sound right to me I'm sure most of his work was before 1980

That is Nora Batty from #LastOfTheSummerWine a brilliant family series from my youth.
Kathy Staff aka Nora Batty wife at the end.
Married With Children was the American take of a British show called Til Death Us Do Part. Basically another idea you stole from us, like The Office.🤣😂
Try Morecombe and wise ,with Andre previn in the piano sketch.
