Kenny Everett
I never seen this guy until I saw this clip and he is so funny, I will have to start watching more of him from now on lol. In this video he simulates an interview with the Bee Gees and they answer through the medium of song, great comedy
AIDS spreading filth.
@FRANKIESHANOWSKIY2K0
Nothing to do with Mary Whitehouse sir- otherwise neither Not the nine o clock news of the young ones to name to name but two would have never been made,
substitute “freshness” for running out of ideas and thats nearer the mark. Everett made some brilliant shows but by the mid 80s his time had gone
@dlamiss
yes because at the time the bbc was going through a harsh
time because of the mary whitehouse movement was monitoring
every show on the channel to see if it were too risque to show
at peak time if the show was too risque it would have being watered
down or pulled of the air shows like monty python ended because of this
movement of television complainers but the itv got away with risque shows
and films but the bbc did not but now they make safe tv shows.
it goes to show that a person so dedicated of finding this
vitage clip and posting it on this site for everyone to watch
and enjoy Hawkins1989 done an outstanding job of finding
this video and it is great and i thank you.
The Gibbs are such miserable bastards they couldn’t see the funny side of this. Brill Ken, you were a star
this is absolutely flawless.
The man was indeed a genius – especially if he did all the singing in that clip.
I wonder where Jenny Jamx is getting his/her ideas from. I’d like to refer him/her to a famous quote from Derek Jarman – “Understand that sexuality is as wide as the sea. Understand that your morality is not law. Understand that we are you. Understand that if we decide to have sex whether safe, safer, or unsafe, it is our decision and you have no rights in our lovemaking.”
Charlie says…
@FATBELLYJONES1 And you mate, are quite ignorant. Do you read the Daily Mail by any chance?
@JennyJamx EVERETT WAS NO MORE THAN A PREDATORY PERVERT, AND AIDS RIDDLED SODOMITE.
That’s impeccable timing. Shows what a legend he was, and still is. I salute Mr Everett.
Are all three Bee Gee’s played (somehow) by Kenny E?
a+ i havent seen this in years .a total genious and think how hard it must have been to do this type of video editing back then
@krakenwave
but you were also wrong about the channels as well sir
he went FROMThames TO the BBC . the quality of the BBC shows declined dramatically after the first couple of years. Everett (in his autobiography)and Co writer Barry Cryer said they felt restricted at the BBC and lost a lot of the freshness of the thames years
@dlamiss
I may have been wrong about his motivation *but who knows…?) but I stick by the argument that it had a pitiful result on the quality and originality of the show. The ITV Ken Show was just an over-indulged Russ Abbotts Madhouse ffs.
@krakenwave
you have that completely wrong. Everett was at thames tv until 1981 when he went to the bbc. he went primarily because thames wanted to schedule his show against top of the pops so he took his show to the corportation and made it for the beeb till 88
Kenny e
What a loss to a bad ass genius
Respect from Stoke
@redwhitch17 Totally agreeeeeeeeeeee ,,,Kenny was pure LSD
HA HA HA HA…….Just pure brilliance..,,Kenny was the best:))
The audio for this was recorded by Kenny, himself, in his department in London using reel-to-reel audio tape machine. Over-dubbing was his hobby, and he always sets up a station where ever stays. He took the tape to the studio just to give them an idea he had in mind. The recording was so good they used it.
@FRANKIESHANOWSKIY2K0 okay?
@BeeGeesLover84
the correct spelling is stupid people and apparently
the bee gees loved it if you thaught that was stupid
people who disguise as elvis should be stupid but i have
no convictions of people copying thier idols look at star trek
fans they live thier fave characters everyday if you were
offended by this why bother watching it then.
@madabbafan
it allso means police constable in the british metropolitan police
and the other meaning is a personal computer
pure genius how he pulled this scene off the real
bee geeswas blessed at this sketch infact they
thaught it was funny but kenny reminds me off
robert englund aka freddy kruger but pure genius though.
OMFG! Major flashback! Thanks for sharing this!
