Brilliant a comedy genies Can watch him over again now I found him on u tube God bless you Ken heaven will be a even happier place with you there😂😂😂I 😂❤
I never heard of this guy before today,I saw a few clips just out of blue, Ken was very funny ,laughing at his own jokes is what makes it so great. I think Ken was awesome and seeing him live would have been such a great time. He told a joke about walking into a store and saying, I would like to try that suit on in the window..you can’t you will have to try it on in the cubicle.😂 Thanks Ken for the laughs even so many years later.
just been reminded of ken from the good old days on bbc 4. what an adorable, original, brilliant comedian. loved him as a kid in the 70s. Even better now I'm a grown_up! Loved Ken Goodwin as a kid in the 70s, but really appreciate the man's gentle genius now. Fantastic style, originality, totally adorable man. Fab! Very sad he's gone.
You don't get comedians like this anymore! He's just so funny god rest you ken! When I'm down I always play your sketches I hope you're having a good time up there and keeping them all laughing ❤️
Just watched this, had to wipe the tears from laughing to type this !!! Ken was fantastic remember seeing him onstage and my face aching from laughing for a couple of days after, as someone else said, if this isn't the cure for a bad day, I don't know what is ! Bless him.
My mother (RIP) used to say a good comedian never laughs at his own jokes, but when I first saw Ken HE HAD ME IN STITCHES He was just a funny guy, So no matter what if a comedian makes you laugh , then he's done his job. RIP Ken Still love you man
He was brilliant..he was infectious.i remember in the '70s just in fits of laughter ..so good he's being recognised again. And ..he was a great uke player ! God bless him Steven
saw ken at the cresta club solihull in the mid 70s,,,,,,,,,he got a standing ovation,,,,,after doing 70minutes non stop......he was brilliant ,,,,,an unforgetable night,,,,,,,,,,,,,john griffin,,,,,,,
I loved Ken. When he laughed i would laugh. I loved the joke he told about the woman before the Judge.The judge asks the woman why did she kill her husband with a crossbow ? She answers " I didn't want to wake up the kids ! "
What a lovely bloke Ken was. I always wondered what happened to him in his later years. There seems to be no trace of him whatsoever working in the 1990's as a stand up comic or even a singer. I tried to find some information on what happened to him in his later years but I couldnt find anything meaningful. As a comic, his style was clean and innocent which was actually great for the type of audiences he performed for. Each to their own I guess. The best comic in the 1970's was a bloke who never actually made it big. He was an alternative comedian who was 25 years ahead of his time. His name was John Paul Joans and he was amazing and completely different to the standard working mens club acts like Bernard Manning and George Roper. His persona on stage was like a mad warlock. In the 1970's John Paul Joans was the most talented stand up comic in Britain. But he did not know how to market himself to TV executives. As for Ken, he also messed up by not doing enough to promote himself on TV. Apart from appearing on the TV show called "the comedians" Ken did very little TV work in the 1970's or 1980's If he would have marketed himself properly to the TV executives I'm sure that they would have given him his own mini TV show as he was an all round clean stand up comic. Or at least they would have given him a slot here and there on other entertainment programmes Ken did not have a very good business brain, just like John Paul Joans who was light years ahead of his time. But Ken was a lovely bloke who will be missed dearly. Im sorry I never got to meet John and Ken personally, as me and them would have had a great laugh hanging out with eachother and playing pool at all the local pubs where ever they performed.
Does anyone know where the first minute and a half of material comes from? As a kid I heard it on a record in that order. I'd love to see that entire specific show ...
I saw a documentary about him. There he tells that he got his jokes from his daughters - and that he just copied them - using the same childish way they were presented to him.
Quasi modo had a appointment at the golf club, the manager said that i can see that you have a ball in your shirt pocket, quasi replied pisshh off its a picture of me mate
Clearly you wasn't born in the 70's and your useless mum and druggy stepdad were probably too young to remember this comedy gold. Go listen to your Ricky Gervais, Russell Brand, James Corden or whatever - all about as funny as two punctures in a spastics wheelchair or woodworm on an OAP's walking stick.
seanie002 - must have took you a long time to make up that answer eh duuuuuuuuuuu. I have my opinion of what I perceive as funny and you may have yours - if you know what an opinion is lol. Have a nice day - you deserve at least one in your life. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha - now THAT was funny ha ha ha ha ha
Clive Bindley ha ha ha ha haaaaa the replies are funnier than the video ha ha ha ha. And you all took the bait hook line and even funnier sinker ha ha ha haaaaaaaaa mugs
