BBC America says so lengthy to Benny Hill

Obviously, a lot of citizens liked the series, and how many of us can watch a scene shot in high speed and not start humming that goofy Benny Hill chase music?

I have to ask: will any of you miss Benny once he’s gone? Or is he an artifact of an earlier age and no longer relevant?

The decision to remove The Benny Hill Show from the channel’s lineup is just part of a new makeover that’s discarding many older shows for newer ones.

If you’ve been enjoying the antics of Benny Hill on BBC America, I have sad news for you: the series is being removed from the channel. The channel hopes to give American audiences more contemporary shows instead of older fare such as Hill and Are You Being Served? and replace them with newer shows like Torchwood and Hollyoaks.

I must say, I never really understood the appeal of Benny Hill, though that certainly doesn’t mean it was a poor show.
