Benny Hill: Should He Stay Cancelled?

Once a global comedy icon with over 21 million viewers, Benny Hill’s legacy is under fire. His humor—once considered hilarious—is now called offensive, sexist, and outdated. Channel 5’s documentary, The Cancellation of Benny Hill, reintroduces his most controversial sketches to Gen Z audiences, who give unfiltered opinions.

Some moments hit, others shock. The debate isn’t just about Hill, but about how far comedy has come—and what we lose or gain when it changes. Was Benny Hill a victim of cancel culture or simply a symbol of his time?
