As Kenneth Williams is a daily joke on CL (always makes me smile/laugh), I thought some may be interested -

  • His diaries are some of the best books I’ve ever read . 
  • A very complex man.

    Agreed, great read 
  • The Carry On King -  I grew up loving Kenneths comedy
  • Well knacker me rimbo and nurdle me thatch.
  • I'll be staying up for this  ;)
  • A unique talent. 
    The landscape has changed now, maybe for the better, but in any case there will never be another like him. 
  • I've got a soft spot for this one:
  • I've got out of the habit now but i used to listen to old comedy on radio 4 extra as I was falling asleep. Really enjoyed the seaside postcard style humour of Beyond Our Ken and Round the Horne, full of cheesy jokes and double entendres. 
    I'm Julian and this is my friend Sandy...

    I've seen the Parkinson "package" of KW so many times but will watch it again as KW was a one-off.

    And for someone who deemed himself "asexual" he did like a double entendre or 3.

    This was the last bit of the Parkinson highlights show, which is where I probably saw it originally. Even better with the facial expressions :)
  • Stayed up and watched it all.
    It just fascinates me how he can go from sounding so BBC to then sounding like an old cockney wash women in a single sentence.
    I loved seeing where he grew up.
    He wouldn’t recognise it now.
    Brought back memories of the back room of the Corner Pin………..insert gif here 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Thanks for the heads up @Covered End

    "And we have a criminal practice in Brighton" - The solicitor's sketch was Gold.
  • Once saw Kenneth Williams coming out of Lillywhites. I was just behind him. (Ooh matron) Thing that struck me was that he was a quite small very dapper, immaculately dressed man. Certainly a very complex and unique man and entertainer. There will never be another.

    made me wonder what sports equipment he would be buying? perhaps a Niblick?

  • He used to live in Alsop Place (side road to Madam Tussards). There’s a blue plaque there.
