This review is from: Benny Hill:King Lear (Hardcover)
I really enjoyed "Benny Hill" when he was on TV here in the USA. I really enjoyed reading about him about his life, behind the scenes, etc....Such a shame we lost a funny man way before his time!

Outstanding biography of a TV eccentric,
By A Customer
This review is from: Benny Hill:King Lear (Hardcover)
Outstanding biography of one of the world's most eccentric and reclusive TV heroes. Novick pulls no punches in his examination of just why such an oddball rose to the top in the world of Tv spanning 30 years.
