That send up sketch of rod Stewart singing with his bum getting bigger and bigger until he floats into the air ALWAYS CHEERS ME UP AND MAKES ME LAUGH 😅🤣
I know! It was just so very silly - but incredibly funny! In a way, by being so very over-the-top, it made it less offensive somehow? Just so ridiculous, like cartoon humour! I hope that Rod Stewart got a laugh out of it as well, because Kenny was never malicious, he was only ever mischievous.
Not often I get tears on RU-vid but Kenny was about my age & said & acted out so much that’s inside me, I love the crazy type of humour which was unique to him! Bless him, dear Kenny😅😂😅
Kenny Everett was a complete legend, whose comedy was completely unique, both then and now. He always cracked me up. RIP Kenny and thanks for your talent.
Too PC unfortunately. The world is killing off independent views. Now you can't say or do anything without offending some armchair warrior or other, especially those who are constantly offended on behalf of others! Today they wouldn't know what to do with poor Kenny, on the one hand his sketches were edgy enough to get banned but on the other hand he was gay so they would have to show the cared about gay rights and equality. Not mean it of course just parrot some well practiced and politically correct words on some social media platform to show a false social conscience.
I was ten when his show was on tv and u can imagine a ten yr olds head, I adored the zany beautiful soul of a man.had all his annuals. The great shame is that he went because of bad timing. To think that years later It was no longer a death sentence is saddening.he had much to give in all aspects of life.. thankyou Kenny.
Kenny was just soooooo good. The dichotomy is interesting and very common with geniuses and he was a genius. All I know is that I thank him for all the joy he shared with us commoners. Amen.
Such a talented man funny and quick witted he cheered me up both on the radio and tv, very much missed and tons better than today's maronic so called entertainment.
Kenny you're very much missed you're probably making the angels wet themselves with laughter, gone but never forgotten rest in ever lasting peace with Freddie xxx
When they mention underrated performers, Kenny had to be near the top, but he was kept down because he had the unfortunate habit of telling the truth. Something which the BBC didn"t understand!!
I have a very happy memory of being 10 years old and during a School play, laughing my head off instead of speaking my lines. I did watch Kenny Everett’s Video Show the night before and all I could think of during the play was this bloody funny sketch where Kenny had a constant runny nose and sprayed the running snot with a spray that froze it like ice.
Kenny was a riot - an absolute madman People say I'm a bit of a loony - but being born in the 80's & growing up watching him on TV, It's where I get my weirdness from & I thank him for it. R.I.P Kenny, you absolute fucking legend. Gone but not forgotten.
So ahead of his time and so risqué for the BBC back then. On TV and radio, he pushed boundaries, introduced so much creativity into the industry. He definitely broke the mold. A great talent without any doubt
As an 8 or 9 year old, I never understood Kenny's comedic humour. I would laugh at his jokes, but I never really understood. Now I'm 49 years old, his sets, humour, characters, and lines just crack me up...Thank you, Ken, and may you rest in eternal peace ❤
One of the unique and talented people that defined my youth. Come home from the club and watch Kenny before heading to bed, good times :) The sad thing is a lot of what he did would be censored or criticized today despite people claiming there is more "freedom" and "openness" in the world :/ The really sad thing is that the gay community did so much to define the 80's in terms of music and culture and still got treated so badly by the society of the time.
there were 2 shows, I had to watch every week without fail, the young ones, and Kenny! both of a similar vain, pushing the boundaries, and really just to make us laugh! He did that! how he got away with some of it, I will never know??? R.I.P YOU SKINNY LITTLE MAN,I AM ONE TOO! BUT YOUR TALENT KNEW NO BOUNDS A GENUIS , WHO JUST WANTED US TO LAUGH! THANK YOU KENNY!
He was so incorrigible but so sweet natured & naturally funny, such a sad ending for this brilliant man. I don’t think he would want to rest in peace? ❤
As a Heterosexual man I cannot help but be a slave to my instincts . I have known Gay Men who told me it was exactly the same for them. Commanded to be Whole but failing to be Not Broken ... who knows what the plan is ? If even there is one ... Kenny was a genius ...
