A lovely tribute to Comedy's favorite short bald guy (or was he Comedy's second favorite short bald guy? I always thought Benny Hill was channelling Hyman when he used the perennial Jackie Wright, the famous Irish Bynunsky Hyman impersonator.).

There's not a lot known about Bynunsky, but I always figured that he had a circus or carnival background as I've seen him play fire eaters and clowns in several films.
