And now for another (in)famous chase scene from The Benny Hill Show!
By the end of the eighties, the starring cast must have been stripped
down to their underwear in every manner humanly possible, but
apparently, the Old Reprobate still had a few tricks up his sleeve.
This
1986 closing sketch finished with Benny fleeing through the Dimpton
countryside with the obligatory Traffic Wardens in hot pursuit.
Inevitably, a chance encounter with a barbed wire fence leaves the girls
in nothing but their bras and knickers, at which point the tables
abruptly turn and the WPCs find themselves sprinting half-naked through
the woods.
On the run again...
The
skit appears to have been a fun shoot for everybody concerned;
evidently the girls found running around in their stockings and garters
as much of a thrill as we do. Interestingly, the scene posted above originally had the closing credits rolling over the action. We'd be very
interested to know how they removed the titles for this animated gif.
It seems to have been lifted from an old video compilation (as opposed
to DVD), maybe there's an alternate source concealed somewhere on the
net :)
