I rekon Kenny would have loved living in the future of 2021..He was a mile ahead of his time...I never went out until I'd watched this show..especially his 81 new years eve show...
I was born in 1981, Kenny doing Rod Stewart has always been one of my favourite clips. I had never seen him as Milton Keynes, currently crying with laughter in 2024 at the glasses getting bigger and bigger. Genius. The world needs more silly.
I used to rush home from work when I was living in Australia to see this on TV. Wouldn't have missed it for anything. Great show with soo much talent every week. Kenny died too young.
Kenny was a fantastic guy who's mind constantly raced at a million miles per sec, he was a true genius and is greatly missed, I watched all his shows as a little un as he started when I was 3 in 78 and ran throughout the early to the late eighties .
You are a year older than me. I too remember watching this programme as a little un' as my parents loved it. The episode I remember best is the one with Rod Stewart's ass blowing up "Do you think I'm sexy?" whenever that was.
God bless Ken. And even the adverts were better in those days. Before all this demented woke bollocks that currently plagues TV. Great to see the lovely Marti Caine too.
RetroCool, Thanks for this look at the Kenny Everett Video Show with special appearance by saviour of the universe Captain Kremmen and scandalous 'naughty bits'!
Wow!! I had a bit of a thing for Kate Bush back then. I think "besotted" is the word. LOL!! I was only 10 years old though. As for Kenny the man was a genius. Irreplaceable!!
I loved this man he was brilliant I grew up watching him all summer when I lived in England. I'd call up my friend ci Clifford Ebrey on the phone and talk about Kenny Everette And laugh all the time I miss my friend and Kenny Everette We talk on the phone for your about the skirts we saw on Kenny Everette i cried my eyes out when I heard he died of A,I,D,S I lost my idle and a great childhood friend who made me laugh Everyone is going APESHIT over Carona but it's nothing compared to A,I,DS I lost a lot of my friend s to that dredfull Disease Kenny Everette helped me come to terms with being gay As a kid I felt alone in a straight world but Kenny Everette gave humour to my life and I never told Ebrey I was gay he never knew I loved him like a brother I never thought about telling him Kenny Everette was my ultimate hero and Clifford Ebrey I miss him big time RIP Kenny Everette love you Clifford Ebrey
The naughty innocence, or innocent naughtiness of Kenny and his sketches, a very multicultural Hot Gossip, Darts, Kate Bush, Elton John, Lindisfarne and that other band 🤷♂️ What's not to like about this?! Great memories of my childhood, major thanks to the uploader 😉👌🏽
I remember having to take part in a Junior school play just after watching an episode of This brilliant show. I don’t think I said my lines clearly because I couldn’t stop laughing my little head off.
Today is the 25th of December, 2022 It would have been Kenny Everett's 78th birthday. If he had been alive in 2020... ...Just imagine the Lock-down Livestreams he would've done!
We and our mates couldn't wait for school to be over so we could go home and watch the Kenny Everett video show. We used to piss ourselves laughing. Probably only 12 or 13 at the time.
This show was on when i was in 5th yr (last year) of school. OMG I wish could go back there, i have no idea what i would change though. Over 40yrs ago, where did the time go??
Hard to believe that before she gained recognition as a classical singer with an outstanding vocal range - Sarah Brightman danced in pink on Kenny’s show and many others.
Yep, she was in Hot Gossip. Their choreographer was Arlene Philips who was one of the original judges on Strictly Come Dancing. And don't forget about Sarah singing I Lost My Heart to A Starship Trooper.
Cerrone - Supernature can be played via Spotify. Which I find awesome. I find the lack of Kenny Everett on Spotify a woeful lack of respect for a radio legend that has left us with the non-funny shock jock from the 80's and 21st Century.
@@ebneigh5191 Do you mean the Thames Television ident? Or the incidental jingle music played over the introduction? If the show recordings exist they're kept under seal with in a refrigerated vault. A bit like Walt but with far more life and comedy potential.
Yea Bring Back the late 70s- 80s when most girls were Slim n hot with a mind of their own and a non Pc attitude. Kenny Everett and even better Benny Hill was the Best, and Women were Real .
As soon as The Kenny Everett Naughty Video Show, started in NZ, it was top of the hits with my freinds & me - mum & dad watched it a couple of times, & decided it was on "to late, for us".
Early 1979. There were a lot of strikes but, even taking that into account, life was so much nicer in those days. There wasn't the division, social and sexual lunacy and environmental fear that pervades current society. People didn't walk around with their noses stuck in smartphones either. When I say smartphonrs, I mean stupidphones, of course.
That is such a load of bull! "Life was nicer" for whom exactly? No division? No protests about racism and sexism back then, eh? The National Front was on the rise, with 1000s of members. They marched through Southall, an Asian area of London, just to stir up trouble. And they did! The Police should never have allowed it. But one of them (The Police) is responisble for the death of an anti-nazi protestor at that march called Blair Peach. Look him up. It's never been solved. That was just one of the many nasty events of 1979. I'm guessing you don't recall the winter of discontent either? Millenial perhaps?
Gosh i remember Yellow Dog They came from america But they were unknown in America never recorded one song in America I knew they were from the american the first time i saw them was on top ofthe pops They did a song called Just one more night They were zany and awesome But actually unknown in America they came from america To have a singing career in England and they hit it big There. But as i said before Nobody heard of them in America i asked my friends In America at that time 1977 And nobody heard of yellow dog It was ashame because Yellow Dog was a great band
They could have been big in America if only people had got to hear their zany and awesome music, but no one ever heard it there so they remain tragically unknown there. They could have changed the face of American music forever, but sadly it was not to be.
Great American Soups was a sub-brand of Heinz soups, that was launched in response to Campbell's recently-launched "The Manhandlers" sub-branding of heartier soups. The sub-brandings are long-defunct, but some of their soups still exist as part of the regular Heinz and Campbell's lines. This commercial was such a huge production that TV Guide did a "Making of" feature on it. Freberg wanted to take the mickey out of commercials that used overblown production numbers to hype mundane products, so he decided to make this soup commercial the mother of all overblown production numbers. It was shot in an MGM soundstage, and Freberg got in trouble when they found out he'd had a hole cut in the floor for the soup can to rise from.
This is the kenny Everette Video show i loved as a kid That crap from 1982 on BBC 1 Poor kenny Everette the social Warriors got to him that is why it was crap If i was kenny Everette I would not have put my name On that crummy garbage Poor kenny had no creative freedom like he did on ITV it stinks what the BBC Did love seeing Darts Reminds me of Martin Genaway And seeing kate bush I have this album the kick inside
i watched this back then..... looking back it's kind of lame. the musical acts in this show were B rate apart from Kate Bush who sang one of her crappier songs coz it was current. script writing was poor, and even the brief appearance of Sid Snot was yawnable... makes me wonder what i seen in it back then.... fortunately later episodes improved and it became watchable. Kenny also found the button marked X.... the exact opposite of Red Dwarf where the first episodes were legendary and the later runs were rehashed rubbish.
