Wildly popular all over the globe thanks to his trademark smirk and affinity for comic naughtiness, Benny rejuvenated the sketch-variety genre with his multi-award-winning THE BENNY HILL SHOW. Satirizing everything under the sun, but sanitizing nothing, Benny and his crackerjack team of entertainers invented a squadron of crazy caricatures: lovable imbecile Fred Scuttle, avant-garde French filmmaker Pierre De Terre, and the verbally challenged Mr. Chow Mein. Backed by Benny's half-dressed flock of frisky foxes, THE BENNY HILL SHOW continues to stand the test of time by making the world laugh itself silly.THE NAUGHTY EARLY YEARS: SET TWO features all 10 riotous episodes from 1972-1974. DVD Features: "Benny Hill: Laughter and Controversy" Episode of A&E’s Award-Winning Series BIOGRAPHY; The Benny Hill Cheeky Challenge Trivia Quiz; "Liner Notes" DVD Insert Booklet; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection | | | |

 Very funny Aug 23, 2009
Although I kinda like the 1982-1985 angel years a little better. This set is also very good. I think Benny is younger and his comedy has a bit more wit to it.

The best of Benny Hill Jan 07, 2009
This is my favorite set of all the Benny Hill collections. It's the funniest and the pace is right. Benny and the crew really hit their stride in this time period.
Also the special features section, containing Benny Hill's biography is a nice addition.

The source of some classic bits. Aug 15, 2007
This is one of the better sets in the series, including the "Trumpet and Two Trophies" sketch. The raunchiest episodes are the 1973 ones, including exposed booty in a Fred Scuttle sketch and Lee Gibson's first appearance in an outfit as naughty as those later seen on Hill's Angels. On the minus side, we are subjected repeatedly to the annoying Ladybirds and a bit too much Chow Mein. Worth buying anyway.

More outstanding comedy Jul 12, 2006
Volume Two is a worthy and logical follow up to Volume One and just as funny. The emphasis is still on hilarious imitations and mimicry which is so much better than the vulgarity of the late Benny. Note too the excellent production values which Thames Television provided. The supporting acts are first class, which Benny always insisted upon.
The prints of the programs are really excellent, like new in fact. There is also a good Biography program on Benny which scotches any rumours surrounding his death.
Endless enjoyment to be had here.
