Benny Hill: Too Racy for TV?
Benny Hill: Too Racy for TV?
A profile of the 1970s and 1980s comedian, who fell out of favour when his once-popular TV sketch show was criticised for containing sexist, risqué and vulgar content that would be considered unacceptable by today's standards. The documentary delves into Benny's past and the work that made his career, and asks members of the younger generation to review his sketches to find out if they find them funny or offensive
Benny Hill: Too Racy for TV? airs on 5 at 10:00 PM, Friday 31 October. (Subtitles, repeat.)
