ROBBED BY EDITING YET AGAIN
First off let me say that: DAMN I LOVED WATCHING BENNY HILL BACK IN THE 1980s ! Those were the days before being PC, and when the editing on most American TV stations was not as severe as it is in these days of lost free speech. If you believe that UNRATED and UNADULTERATED labels on your DVD purchases will bring you the complete and unedited versions of the original BENNY HILL SHOWS then be prepared to be disappointed. Shame on A&E and others for selling me a severely edited version of one of my favorite shows of all time. Where's the naughty bits??? Must have lost those on the cutting room floor. Feel free to watch this edited version with the kids because they removed the "adult" from "unadulterated" and so now you can play these at your local church social without hardly raising an eyebrow. Poor Benny will be rolling over in his grave.
One of the funniest comedian's of our time
I have watched the Benny Hill show since I was a younger man, what a pleasure he was. I still use a lot of his lines today to get a laugh. Most of the time I have to explain the humor or say that was from Benny Hill...most people go, "who?"
I am half british, and I can grasp the humor and the wit very fast. The slap stick humor and skits were always keeping me in stiches. The shows always made my day!
If you want a great collection of humor and risky prevocative woman, then add this to your collection, you will not be dissappointed.
Overpriced Edition... The Complete and Unadulterated is for half the price..
I bought this 18 disc set for double the price (This one has the discs in individual cases, and maybe a bonus documentary here and there FOR MORE THAN DOUBLE THE PRICE!!! There is a cheaper version ("Complete and Unadulterated")available with 18 discs as well... if I knew that they had the same set of episodes I would have gone for that one. I paid a lot more for extra packaging...
