Benny Hill being a sexual predator wouldn't surprise me. His show was really all sort of making sexual predatory behavior something to laugh at, any way.

and there have long been rumours about the true nature of his sexuality

In real life his sex life was always a sketchy, speculative area, and conjecture was high that he was either a closet homosexual or some marauding devotee of the dirty mac. In the 20-odd years that Kirkland knew Benny, he didn’t have one serious girlfriend, offering the explanation that women wanted to mother him, “maybe give him a cuddle and laugh at his jokes, but they didn’t very often want to sleep with him”. Benny often took ladyfriends away with him on foreign trips, but they were usually disappointed that his idea of a perfect night in Paris would involve sitting in the hotel room watching French TV in search of comedy ideas.

That's not the real story here.

what is then?

Benny Hill is long dead and the sexual abuse accusation against him is quite minor. The woman who accuses him has a very colourful past and as I noted was introduced to the film industry by a filmmaker who seems to have been a pornographer and possibly filmed the pedophiles at the notorious London pedophile haunt Elm Guest House. I believe that the elite pedophile rings are currently putting out stories in the news which are accusing dead celebrities of abuse but are really serving as warnings to people not to 'out' them.

Or, throwing dead wood on the fire, hoping to put it out...

Yes. Indeed.
