Description
The Benny Hill Show sent shock waves all over the planet and brought audiences to their knees with laughter. Now, Benny is back by popular demand in BENNY HILL: COMPLETE AND UNADULTERATED: SET 6--THE HILL’S ANGELS YEARS 1986-1989, the final installment of his rowdy, raucous, and rollicking smash hit on DVD. Never before seen in their entirety in the States, the eight original full-length episodes in SET 6 explode with the saucy wit and flamboyant humor that made The Benny Hill Show an international phenomenon. Armed with his naughty, nubile Hill’s Angels and the adorable The Hill’s Little Angels, Benny sails into new stratospheres of hilarity, whether it’s with Fred Scuttle and his daily newspaper or Lana and her gaggle of Performing Men. Classic sketches such as "The Crook Report" and "The Halitosis Kid" show off the slapstick silliness that made Benny the undisputed king of comedy. BENNY HILL: COMPLETE AND UNADULTERATED: SET 6--THE HILL’S ANGELS YEARS 1986-1989 is an outrageous and uproarious grand finale to one of the most unforgettable programs in television history. DVD Features: "Hill’s Angels: In Conversation" Featurette; The Benny Hill Cheeky Challenge Trivia Quiz #6; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection

Benny Hill Simply the BEST!, Jan 17 2007
By Dr Lim Michael "thetravellinggourmet" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hill;Benny 1986-1989 Hills Ang (DVD)
MASTER Comedian Benny Hill is simply the BEST! When I was a student in University in England, The Benny Hill Show was guaranteed to brighten up my day especially when there was thick snow and ice outside my room in the Hall of Residence. As for Hill's Angels, a play on the words - "Hell's Angels", what can I say? They are really SAS! Sensuous and Seductive, voluptuous, curvaceous, nubile, beautiful...words fail me. Be sure you have a strong heart before you watch them as their graceful gyrations may just give you a heart attack, if you don't have a stroke laughing till your belly aches. To this day, I have a personally autographed photo of Benny Hill with his trademark cheeky grin, on my office wall with his handwritten words, "To Michael, Cheers!" I am one of his biggest fans and he is sorely missed. "People who are not broad minded always complain that Benny's jokes are in poor taste and too raunchy. However, I always believe that minds like parachutes work best when they are open. I know, I used to parachute myself. As Benny would pronounce in his hilarious guise as Chinaman Mr. Chow Mein, who bears a striking resemblance to the former Chinese Premier Deng Shiao Ping with his slicked back black hair, "Stoopid irriots!!" HA! HA! Enjoy! By Dr. Michael Lim The Travelling Gourmet who is a famous Travel, Food & Wine Writer/Editor in Asia.

A great finale, Feb 4 2007
By Reader B "avid reader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hill;Benny 1986-1989 Hills Ang (DVD)
Of all the ones before, this is the best. It is fresh, no repeat skits, and the inventiveness is wonderful. There are some new faces, and the Hill's little angels are great. For Benny Hill fans, it is sad this ends the series, but wonderful it ends on a high note. What I found so special is that none of the material was shown before on commercial television in the US, so I was seeing it for the first time.This is an essential set for Benny Hill fans.
The bonus interviews with three Hill's angels was rather weak; hardly worth the effort, and inferior to the other interviews in the earlier sets. I also found it difficult to hear all the words (or make them out) during some of the songs. Either the accents had changed a bit, or the sound tracks were poorly mixed. But this is minor.

Too restrained, Jun 13 2007
By Mark James Drummond - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hill;Benny 1986-1989 Hills Ang (DVD)
Benny Hill was obviously feeling pressure from political correctness at this point, as the Hill's Angels segments are far less raunchy and more covered up than in the previous sets. Benny obviously tries to go for cuteness by using children in the filmed comedy segments(they aren't bad,but they're no substitute for a bald guy getting his head slapped). It gets kind of tiresome after a while.
