The skit that I'm looking for was one of his fast-forward style skits. In this one, Benny I believe played the gardener for an estate. The woman fed her husband cake (crunchy, of course), booze, cigarettes and made him play tennis. He soon died, which allowed her to carry on with the gardener. Soon after they married, she started feeding him cake, booze, smokes, tennis etc. The skit ends with him looking at the camera realizing she's doing the same to him as her former husband. Thanks!

The skit is titled "A Marriage of Convenience" or "Marrying for Money." Episode 34 (s10 ep2).

I seem to recall another version where the tables are turned and the new husband does it to her.

That's the one I remember. What I found really funny was the woman was coughing with a man's voice!

Annoying the world since 1960!
