The most common running gag in Benny Hill's shows was the closing sequence, the "run-off", which was literally a running gag commonly filmed using "under-cranking" camera techniques. #YaketySax is so strongly associated with the show that it is commonly referred to as The Benny Hill Theme. I mashed up Beach Blanket Bingo for this because Nobody Beats Buster.
