Benny Hill Revisited

Presenting: one of my favorite closing scenes from The Benny Hill Show. I probably saw this around the age of  thirteen, and needless to say, it left a profound impression. Back in the early 70s, TBHS was well-known for its saucy double-entendres, but this was the first time I'd seen the show's voluptuous co-stars disrobe before the camera. At first I didn't realize what was happening, then was hit with the stunning revelation that the girls were stripping down to their bare knickers.








Summary: 

The Langley Base Army Camouflage Unit is a British special forces division specially trained in the art of camouflage. They are staking out a glade in the Heathrow countryside where when three young ladies (Sue Bond, Cheryl Gilham and Dennie Bayliss) decide to go sunbathing in front of them. The members of the unit take snapshots as the girls strip down to their lingerie and depart for the clearing, leaving their clothes hanging on some nearby branches.

The scene is interrupted by the arrival of Tredder and Son woodcutters (Bob Todd and Jackie Wright) who proceed to try to saw down one of the tree-trunks, sending the disguised troops into a panic. The unit takes off down the grassy slope chased by the woodcutters and the young women.
