Plot Summary:A sketch-comedy series in which Hill would often play multiple characters and satirize popular British and American performers and stars. Common themes in the show were the husband-beating wife, buxom women, and silent, high-speed chase scenes between Hill and the other characters.
班尼·希尔(Benny Hill,班尼·黑尔),原名Alfred Hawthorne Hill,英国著名喜剧演员。这位生于20世纪20年代的喜感胖子曾带给人们无数的快乐。他于20世纪50年代登陆电视荧屏,在其著名的The Benny Hill Show中,他百般变装,时而憨态可掬,时而狡黠鬼马,时而愚蠢拙朴,即使一脸严肃也令人忍俊不禁,捧腹大笑,其高超自然的搞笑功底甚至令喜剧之王卓别林都敬佩有加,成为其电视节目的忠实粉丝。二人互为偶像和拥趸的关系着实有趣,堪称笑坛佳话。1991年,班尼·希尔荣获瑞士韦维喜剧节查理·卓别林国际奖,实可谓对其演艺事业的无上褒奖。 1992年4月20日,68岁的班尼·希尔坐在家中的摇椅上与世长辞,一代传奇笑匠永远合上双眼。
