Henry McGee

Henry McGee was a British actor closely associated with The Benny Hill Show, where he served as an announcer and a straight man for Hill’s characters. His measured delivery and reactions gave the show a familiar foil, whether he was conducting an interview or playing an official caught in a ridiculous situation.

McGee trained at the Italia Conti school and worked in repertory theatre before building a television career. His other credits included The Worker, The Saint and The Italian Job. He was also recognizable from Sugar Puffs advertisements with the Honey Monster, extending his comic presence beyond the sketch show.
