Hill's health began to decline in the early 1990s. Weighing 17 stone (238 lbs or 108 kg) at 5 feet 10½ inches (1 m 80 cm) tall, he suffered heart problems related to his obesity. On February 11th, 1992, doctors told him that he needed to lose 28 pounds, and recommended a heart bypass. He declined, and was diagnosed a week later with renal failure.
Benny Hill died on or about April 20th, Easter weekend 1992, alone in his flat at 7 Fairwater House, Twickenham Road, Teddington, at the age of 68. On 24 April, concerned neighbors had called the police, who then found the deceased Hill sitting in his armchair in front of the television. On the day that Benny Hill died, a new contract arrived in the post to him from Central Independent Television.
The cause of death was listed as coronary thrombosis. (His death closely coincided with that of another British comedy icon, Frankie Howerd, who died on April 19th aged 75.)

I'm sorry to say that Benny Hill died sometime in the 90's, I think, at age 60. He was still a bachelor. A great loss to the world, his humor is unique. I still watch his show a couple times a week.

Nope. Benny Hill died when I was in high school, in 1994 or 1995.

Unfortunately Benny Hill is dead. He passed away several yrs. ago. I don't remember how he died. He was a very funny man and a dirty old man.
