      @betteroffdead Рік тому +3

      Ground breaking. He had his fingers on the pulse of what was contemporary. And , had it been a few years previous, the beeb wouldn't have allowed it. However, with the beginning of Thatcher 's britain, he took the opportunity and ran with it.

      ​​​@@andysalter7192it only works as comedy if you understand the greater social situation in the UK at the time. And while these skits are old, done and a bit naff now, at the time it was both groundbreaking and hilarious.
      Edit also, a lot of up and coming comedians got their first tv appearances on the Kenny Everett Show. And he also lead a revolution in what was allowed on radio a decade before he was on TV.

    • @painstruck01
      @painstruck01 Рік тому +1

      he was more influential than comedy. he revolutionised local radio by recording all local slots from his home in a home studio. George Harrison and Pink Floyd thought that was a grand idea. The home studio was born, driving a trend that continues to this day - the democratisation of music.

      @stevenoneill7166 Рік тому

      @btsb60 yes, Kenny moved from Thames to the BBC in 1981. There was a lot of this channel swapping with entertainers around this time. Mike Yarwood did the reverse in 1982, but the big one was in 1978 when the BBC lost Bruce Forsyth to LWT plus Morecambe & Wise to Thames. In return, the BBC poached Larry Grayson from LWT & also Little & Large from Thames
