We British are a subtle bunch Chris.

As evidence, see the works of Benny Hill, Monty Python, and the
gentle-yet-poignant understatement of The Young Ones.



What have the Romans ever done for us!?

Poor old Benny Hill. He was huge here, and then overnight he was considered
not to be PC, and unceremoniously ditched from prime time TV to nowhere.
These days, he is seldom even mentioned in the media. I can't admit to being
a fan, but I do feel sorry for the way he was off-loaded.
