So, 'Ernie (The Fastest Milkman in the West)' is this quirky little piece of comedic nostalgia from 1971, showcasing Benny Hill's knack for humor. The whole vibe is cheeky, filled with playful innuendos that are really his trademark. It's not just a music video; it’s got this fun, carefree energy that captures the spirit of the early '70s. The pacing is brisk, keeping you engaged as you follow along with the whimsical tale of Ernie. It's distinctive for its blend of catchy tunes and comedic visuals, a kind of time capsule of British humor that doesn't take itself too seriously. And Hill's performance is spot on, making it a real gem for collectors who appreciate that unique style of comedy.
This film has had a pretty limited run on home video, with few physical releases over the years, making it a slightly elusive find for collectors. Some editions feature additional Benny Hill sketches, but the primary cut remains the most sought after. Given its novelty status and the era it represents, it garners a fair amount of interest among fans of vintage British comedy, especially those who appreciate Hill's unique style.
