    When was he cancelled.

    Yeah, comedy series come and go, the Benny Hill Show’s time had passed with alternative comedy helping refresh the humour landscape. It wasn’t cancelled it just faded away.

    In the next two weeks, similar documentaries will look at the ‘cancellation’ of Kenny Everett and Fawlty Towers, despite the latter barely being off screens.

    Same for Kenny Everett and my understanding was they didn’t want to do any more, I imagine they had offers to do more.

      Again my memory may be flawed.

      But I think Kenny everate had some issues. I remember him moving from the BBC to itv and back because he pissed of staff at the BBC. But can’t remember the details.
