Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Benny
Hill Show. And here is Benny Hill.

Now you go down to the ballet and you're
eager for

a dance. You see a lovely stranger and
your eyes meet white boy chance.

She's warm and she's desirable with a
figure meant to hug. So you stand eight

feet apart and do the frog.

But in the tango, you get the chance to
hold her out so near. And you gaze into

her lovely eyes that bloom.

And while you're dancing, you whisper
sweet nothings in her ear.

And she says sweet nothings in her ear.

Now you give her here a nibble. You give
her cheek a peck. You've got her in a

grip of steel. You're breathing down her
neck.

And then she says those magic words that
thrill you through and through.

You've been eating big old onions,
haven't you? Oh, poo!

Once I met a girl called Titty who was
pretty as could be. She lived up in the

city and she asked me round to tea.

But pretty, witty, pity, she tried to
pull my leg. So I hit her, what a pity,

with a soft -boiled egg. Then the
wireless made a tango and I out.

as we swayed and we glided round the
room.

And when her dad come in, we carried on
a laugh I didn't know. He was deaf and

he couldn't hear the tune.

Oh, he punched me in the ear hole and he
hit me with a vase.

He chased me down the garden and I
slipped up on the grass.

Well, I'm finished and threw a stars
above with a tango.

Ladies and gentlemen, darling, nice to
be with you once again. Now, for those

you who are spending your holidays this
year in France, here is an item of

special interest.

Bonsoir. Good evening.

Ah, il y a quelqu 'un à la porte. There
is someone at the door.

C 'est Claude. No.

He is my friend.

So I say, entrez, come in. But if I did
not like him, I would say, allez -vous

-en and slam the door.

But I like him. So I say, entrez, come
in.

Now I must make him welcome.

So, where do I take him?

Dans la cuisine, in the kitchen?

Non. Dans la salle de bain, into the
bathroom?

No. Dans la chambre à coucher. Into the
bedroom.

No, no, no, no. That will not do.

No. I will take him dans la salle à
manger.

Into the dining room.

I should say, asseyez -vous. Sit down.

Là -bas. Over there.

Il fait chaud. It is hot.

Devrais -je enlever ma jaquette? Should
I take my jacket off?

Non, parce qu 'il ne fait pas assez
chaud. No, because it is not warm

Perhaps he is hungry.

Nous avons ici un délicieux gâteau de
chocolat. We have here a delicious

chocolate cake.

Is he hungry? A -t -il faim?

Yes, he is hungry.

Will he have some cake?

Non, parce qu 'il est déjà trop gros.

No, because he's already too fat.

Now it is time for Claude to go.

As he is my friend, je vais lui donner
un gros baiser. I will give him a

big kiss.

And notice, we say gros baiser and not
grand baiser. There is a subtle

difference, but of this we will talk
later.

Donc, je vais lui donner un gros baiser.
I will give him a big kiss.

But of course in the negative, it is je
ne vais pas lui donner de gros baiser. I

will not give him a big kiss.

Now then, what shall we do the next
weekend?

Le week -end prochain.

Shall we spend it together in my house
in the country?

Dans ma maison à la campagne?

Non. Shall I spend it in Claude's
apartment?

Dans l 'appartement de Claude?

No, no, no, that won't do.

Non, nous irons chez les nudistes. We
will spend it together in the nudist

colony.

Ah, tout le soleil dans la campagne, c
'est magnifique sous le ciel bleu. How

lovely it is to frolic, Claude and I,
all naked in the countryside under the

glorious sunshine.

Now, don't forget.

Switch on next week, same time, and hear
how Claude breaks his leg and cannot go

with me.

Laughter.

Okay.

Irvin, how long have you been in show
business?

Ever since I was 17.

Eight years.

Eight years?

Nearly eight years.

And what position are you holding at the
moment?

I'm sort of like upright but relaxed,
like you said.

No, I meant in show business. Oh, I'm
sorry.

I beg your pardon. I'm a chorus boy.

How did you start?

Well, you see, it all started for me
down in Bournemouth.

When, unbeknownst to myself, my then
-fiancée took a snapshot of me while I

at the water's edge having a paddle.

She sent the snap up to the town hall.

The next thing I knew, I'd been entered
for the knobbly knees contest.

Well, I didn't want to let my fiancée
down, so I went through with it, but I

can't tell you how I felt stood up there
in front of all those ogling women with

my kneecaps.

Completely naked.

After the competition, which
incidentally I won, there was a party

my downfall.

Yes, I tasted the sweet life.

I tasted the dolce vita of Boscombe and
Poole.

Is there any truth in the rumour that
there is a certain amount of cheating in

the Noblinese contest?

I'm ashamed to have to tell you this,
but some of the men wear falsies.

What?

Flesh -coloured plastic kneecaps.

Got to the stage now where before every
competition a nurse goes round with a

little hammer, tapping them and testing
them.

I can't tell you how embarrassing it is
when one of them drops off.

Getting to be like a cattle market now.
It's no wonder I joined the men's

liberation movement.

You found yourself in several touring
plays. I believe you played Lee.

Yes, I did, in Manchester and
Birmingham.

Oh, yes.

I was a bit of a hell -raiser in those
days. They used to call us the Rat Pack.

Not just me, there was Athene Siler,
Edith Evans, Kathleen Harrison,

Robert Morley, all our drinkers, you
know.

After the show every night, we'd go into
the Queen's Arms there.

Many's the night I've downed as many as
seven pints of shandy straight off.

You lived life with a big L.

And sometimes I suffered pain with a big
P.

Like when I met this terrible agent.
This lady producer.

She said, I'm having a surprise party. I
got a surprise when I got there, I can

tell you.

Carrying on like that was disgraceful.

It's like that film about Gomorrah and
that other place, you know.

A tower of barbell there it was. It was
full of beatniks with long sideboards

full of drink.

I mean, they had sideboards full of
drink.

Some of the men was just as bad.

I tell you, they were witches there.
They were practising witchcraft. Not

lady witches, but men witches. They had
men witches there.

Wallops. It's true, I think.

waiting for you in her den. So, of
course, I went straight in.

Well, you were really taking an awful
chance.

I mean, you're really very attractive.

I know.

I thought I'd be all right, because
everyone said she was a Lebanese.

Well,

I got in there, and she was all dressed
up in this, like, leather gear, you

know. And she said, here, put that on,
and she'd give me a Russian army

officer's uniform, give me a copy of the
TV Times, and said, hit me with it.

Well, she spoke fluent English.

Well, I come out of there and all these,
like, rich people, they was all, like,

stood around, you know, and they said
they was going to have a symbolic

sacrifice. They was going to go out and
get an 18 -year -old virgin.

Where was it?

Chelsea.

That's what I thought. Some hopes, you
know.

Anyway, then they all started looking at
me.

And what steps did you take? Bloody long
ones.

future? Well, I hope to get into a nice
show with some decent people.

I've been on with this part in
Ocalcutta, you see.

Ocalcutta? Yes. Well, it'll be full of
Indians, won't it? You know.

And I've seen them on the television in
the documentaries when they barf in the

Ganges. They don't even take their night
shirts off, so there won't be any

nudity or anything like that, you know.

Merding cruddy, thank you.

Did you really find me attractive?

No, I didn't know as you did.

Thank you.

I just wanted to pop in to explain
something to you. You know, in the

did a little while ago, it looked like I
got on an old lady's back and she

carried me all over the countryside, you
know.

What it really was, was this, actually.
If I step into that, you see, and run,

and these legs are put round here, it
looks, for all the world, like it's an

lady carrying me.

I just thought I'd tell you, that's all.

Well, I didn't want you to think that
I'd expect, you know, an actress like

to run all over the countryside with
nearly 11 stone on her shoulders.

But, no, ladies and gentlemen,
seriously, there's a lot of things, you

about television that people, I'm sure,
don't understand. You know, for example,

some people think that sketches and
songs and little interviews like we did

now write themselves. I think we make it
up as we go along. We have a script,

you know, from... Have you got my...
Could you get my...

Isn't it there, Dennis?

I think I left it up in Jenny's room.

No, Bettine's room, I think.

Or maybe the ladybird's room, I'm not
too sure.

Not a funny show, but a happy show.

Seriously, ladies and gentlemen, you
know, I mean, a script, as I say, it has

be written. I have to write it myself.

And sometimes, you know, to meet a
deadline, I have to stay awake, you

with black coffee and ice packs on my
head till, you know, maybe half past

five o 'clock in the afternoon.

Ah,

have you got one? Yes.

Now,

I can't see, ladies and gentlemen, you
know, how much you can see. I don't

Did his hand come into shop then?

No, you see?

And I know why. Because if his hand had
come into shop, they'd have had to pay

him five pounds.

I have to think, yeah, it is true.

Anybody's hand comes into shot, five
pounds.

Foot, eleven pounds.

They figure that the foot is more
important than the hand, and the more

important the part, the more the money.

That's what I thought.

They'll never have old Calcutta on
television.

Never. Anyway, this is a script, ladies
and gentlemen. It's about, what is it

now? 32 pages long, and across the front
there, you know, it says the Mike and

Bur... The Mike and Bernie Winters show.

Just there.

Ah.

And they've done it.

Which one goes out?

We go out first.

Bernie in drag.

That means dressed up as a woman.

In case you didn't know.

Any man who dresses up as a woman can't
be all bad, does what I say.

You are Bernie as woman. Great, great,
great.

Mike as policeman. Don't you mean rape?
No, there was a bunch of them.

What do you call a man who marries
another man?

A vicar.

How do male elephants find female
elephants in the long grass?

Very nice.

He's another example of how, you know,
explaining things in television. Now,

down here, it says, what do you mean?

What do I mean? What do you mean?

Guh, guh, guh, guh, guh, guh, guh, guh,
guh.

Now, you wouldn't know what that meant.

But that means, doesn't it? It means,
what do you mean, what do I mean? Yee!

Now, I'm being naughty.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's my very great
pleasure to introduce three delightful

ladies who really do scintillate,
sometimes till ten. Here they are, the

delightful Lady Bird.

Why do birds suddenly appear every time

you are near?

They long to be close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky
every

time you walk by?

Just like me, they long to be close to
you.

The day that you were born, the angels
got together and decided to create a

dream come true.

And he's guided to create a dream come
true.

Things don't turn out right.

I know I'll be all right.

I'll just keep sunshine.

Oh, it's a beautiful night, isn't it?
It's not half as you are.

That's the nicest thing anyone's ever
said to me.

I don't think I've seen you on the boat
before.

No, I spend most of my time in the...

I saw you this morning walking along the
top deck, and I couldn't help noticing

you had a very, very beautiful behind.

I've had it for quite some time.

I had it made for me in Crete.

They don't make them like that nowadays.

Do you have a nice cabin?

Unfortunately, no.

I couldn't get one with a bathroom.

Must say I'm getting a bit fed up having
to out of the porthole.

influential person.

His mother is Edward Heath.

She sounds quite a woman.

Of course she is.

Here comes that lady from Hancock.

Oh, is she Chinese?

She lives in Cincinnati now. Hi, Jenny.

I'm living in Cairn with my chauffeur
and butler.

If you'd care to join me for a cocktail,
I'll be in the bar.

I say, I must fall.

I'm awfully sorry.

How dare you? I'll call the steward.

How about a song, Roger?

Yeah, how about it, sir?

Oh, no. You don't want to hear me.

Tiptoe through the tulip.

But only if Jenny will with me.

I'd love to.

Tiptoe through the tulip. That is where
I'll be. Come tiptoe through the tulip.

Tiptoe through the tulip.

Oh, you can yourself.

That's him, over there.

Excuse me, sir. Ticket.

Very well, I... Second class.

Oh, no.

I'm afraid so, madam.

I must ask you to leave this first class
saloon immediately, sir.

Very well.

Is it true?

Are you really a second class passenger?

I'm most terribly sorry. Do forgive me.
I'll go.

Is it true?

at 2 o 'clock

Don't forget me. I'll go.

How on earth did you start the nickel? I
knew it was funny from the start. Best

man's funny, but not a cat. Yes, perhaps
you're right.

Jenny, darling, what are you doing down
here?

I changed my ticket for a second -class
one. Oh, darling.

I'm terribly sorry about that, sir. I
had no idea you were the owner.

The owner?

Oh, yes, madam.

Mr. Rogers shipped all over the place.

But it are not only the British gentle
ladies men that

go and sketch.

Isn't it?

Ils sont délicieux, des oeufs.

Allez travailler sur un oeuf.
