Loved Kenny Everett and still makes me laugh over 40 years later. He would send up his guests but what I really liked was that he was never cruel. RIP Kenny.
Kenny was very close to Freddie Mercury and was instrumental in getting Bohemian Rhapsody radio airplay. In fact he was the very first to play it when he was on Capital Radio in London.
I loved Kenny Everett. It all seems so juvenile now but at the time there was nothing like him. I remember thinking he couild be the next Spike Milligan. He obviously isn't in the same league as Spike but I still remember him with great fondness. I loved his comic strip-like characters and never missed a show.
That's what's so great about the KENNY EVERETT VIDEO SHOW from THEMES TELEVISION, there's no studio audience, the laughter you hear is from the crew and the cameramen.R.I.P, Kenny.
Used to watch him backing the day. Thought I'd have a look at this not with much expectation, being much older now, but , bloody hell I couldn't stop laughing .
A pure genius who made us all laugh this was comedy at its best. week by week his shows were great entertainment .we all were blessed with fantastic comedy in the 70s and 80s .RIP Kenny
Totally Zaney, and this is what I loved about him. We really were blessed in those days with so much true comedy, since then all has steadily been going down hill.
There was one Sid Snot scene where he caught about 5 or 6 cigarettes in his mouth in one throw, and even Kenny smirked before he sashayed out of shot. It was all done in the best possible taste of course.
@@peterkerr4019 I’ve been doing variations on that joke since I was a kid, you just replace the brick with whatever regular item you’re handling at the time.
I was about 9 when I started to watch "The Kenny Everett Video Cassette" and it made me laugh a lot 🙃. Umm then my Mum saw what I was watching and said "that's not very nice" So I enjoyed it even more .. watched it with the sound turned down when she was cooking dinner.
As a kid, as we probably all did, it was Captain Kremen on the radio each week with John Peel to fall asleep to. The fun at school back then, you used to wait for him on once a week on TV then blurt it all out. Great times.
Thanks for this . I miss this guy so much. Thanks to some kindred souls at PBS12 I got to watch really silly funny shows like Kenny’s, The Pythons, the Goodies and others that totally went contrary to public tvs image up to then. They were run late night long enough to become hits before the powers that be became aware of what was going on. So this is the kind of sense of humor I grew into, in my tweens.
@@crazysoupforever He was definitely funny, adored by people of all ages, a stand-up that captures his own time and era perfectly, and his comedy transcends generations wonderfuly.
Many thanks for this compilation which has brought back so many memories of laughing my head off at the genius of Kenny Everett - the Thames TV shows which this selection of hilarity were taken from are the better comedy than his BBC shows IMHO - the laughter of the crew and the risque sketches just sets them apart. Brilliant stuff!!!
Two of the lines I remember from Kremen if the Star Corp was.. "Carla you look tired. Didn't you sleep well?" She replied " the people next door kept me awake. They were banging on the walls." Kremen said " They should do it in bed like everyone else." The other one was that someone said to Kremen that they were a country member. Kremen said "Yeah, I remember."
He did a movie with Pamela Stephenson. One of the scenes had the camera heading down a path towards an outhouse to the theme music from JAWS. The toilet door gets flung open just as the music rises to a climax and Kenny Everett is sitting there playing the music on a cello.😁 Great comic. Not any like him nowadays.
I really miss Kenny's zany humour. There is nothing like it on tv today, just endless game shows, and reality shows. There is a guy on You-tube called Stevie Riks, he should have his own show. He is brilliant at taking off just about everyone in the music business.
Some of the best memories of my childhood, along with the Goodies and the Goon Show, unfortunately, there is nothing today that can compare with that humour👍😃
Sid Snot. They told me to fill in a questionnaire, so I beat up the doorman. That and the first time he caught the cig in his mouth are the 2 sketches i laughed hardest at. It was all done in the best possible taste!
Loved Kenny Everett and still makes me laugh over 40 years later. He would send up his guests but what I really liked was that he was never cruel. RIP Kenny.
So true.
Thanks. Tv is dull as ditchwater now. RIP Kenny. You total legend.
The best form of comedy Laughing at one's self and the whole world as well🙂
Kenny Everett was a legend
I wish I did.
And it was all done in the best, possible, taste!
He was a breath of fresh air.
Oh Kenny,we miss you; your humour, your warmth, your humanity. RIP. 🥰
👍🏻 Maggie I’m seeing thousands of views now. Just wondering how did you get to hear about the video I made? Where are all the brill views coming from?
@@AlansVideoCollection Techmoan did a video about Kenny Everett's radio work and some cartridge tape idents for Victory Radio some time ago.
Just the best
Its just a shame he voted Tory...remember that?
He was so genuine.
Hard to believe that he had all the music legends on his shows, Freddie Mercury and bee gees, police, Mick Jagger, the who, never see his like again
he started off as a disc jockey on bbc radio
After spells on pirate radio and Radio Luxembourg in the mid-1960s, he was one of the first DJs to join BBC radio's newly-created BBC Radio 1 in 1967.
Kenny was very close to Freddie Mercury and was instrumental in getting Bohemian Rhapsody radio airplay. In fact he was the very first to play it when he was on Capital Radio in London.
@@66PHILB yeah they were good pals. Are you not familiar with the story of how they both ended up dead.
@@carlosmunganos9080 Carlos, unfortunately I am familiar with that situation. Such a sad time. I was devastated when Kenny died.

*THAMES* auntie been would not allow many things that Thames would. Much better show, I think.
Kenny was truly brilliant..........way ahead of his time.
Ah nope. About thirty years after the Goons.
@@zapkvr The Goons were crap! All they did was make funny noises on radio and pull funny faces on tv.
Good ol cuddly Ken,back in the day,never missed the show 😆👍👍👍
Yes, he was so cuddly.
Ah those were the days...
Us kids back in the day loved his humour.....
Hello…Sid Snot here! He and Cupid Stunt always had me in stitches…obviously, all in the best possible taste!
Today's kids would love him
Well the ones brought up by none woke parents.
Taken Me back to my teens.. British humour has always been the best!
And all with the *best possible taste*?

Don't and can't make em like this anymore cos of ?
Absolutely a comic genius the likes we sadly won’t see again such a iconic funny guy still 😂 at his antics to this day 😅
when i was a kid kenny was one of the best things on TV
Kenny's genius + Barry Cryer's & Ray Cameron's writing + the studio crew's genuine laughter = comedy magic.
Genius is the only word, nothing like it before or since
@@kins749 There was of course Spike Milligan, but I agree that Kenny was a genius.
Thanks for sharing this 😂😂
Brings back some classic laughs.
“Piston broke” 😂😂
I know, but what happened?
@@gorillaau 😂😂😂😂
What a legend all we got today is crap come back kenny.
Bit hard, he's been dead a long time
@@reezy6677 wally!
Kenny was just hilarious 😂👍🤩😎🥳🤣
Totally Zaney, and this is what I loved about him. We really were blessed in those days with so much true comedy, since then all has steadily been going down hill.
Kenny was and is my favorite comedian, loved watching this show when it was originally aired.
One of this country's "Best nutters" Miss him!
Nothing quite like this. I miss Kenny
ALL DONE IN THE BEST POSSIBLE TASTE!!!.😎💕🇬🇧🇺🇦
Pure effing genius! Love ya Kenny.x

You think I'm made of bricks?
I remembered that sketch my whole life. Young me thought it was the funniest thing ever.
I was walking along yesterday & remembered that joke & today I get to watch it again.
@@peterkerr4019 I’ve been doing variations on that joke since I was a kid, you just replace the brick with whatever regular item you’re handling at the time.
For some reason I have a vivid memory of Cleo Rocos flogging the audience into laughing. Can't think why...
Thanks for this trip down memory lane :) I'm old enough to get more of the jokes now ahahahah
🤣🤣🤣

Same here. I was tiny when this was on, but me, mum and dad LOVED Kenny. Still do.

I remember Kenny’s show like it was yesterday. We all loved his humour, he was one of a kind and his show was really cutting edge at the time.
Morecambe and Wise, Dennis Pennis, Shooting Stars and dear old Kenny. No one takes the piss out of celebrities anymore
Kenny Everett was great, i always picture him walking down the stairs in the audience with the massive hands, made me laugh every time.
Brother lee love!!!
My brother and I use to put our mothers oven gloves on and do the Brother Lee Love dance whenever he came on!
@@Heidi_Bradshaw
That's funny lol.
Kenny Everett was just a funny guy, every sketch and character brought a laugh or at least a smile.
@@JD.78 He was genuinely funny, not like a lot of today's so called comedians.
@@crazysoupforever
He was definitely funny, adored by people of all ages, a stand-up that captures his own time and era perfectly, and his comedy transcends generations wonderfuly.
Dear old Kenny - and all done in the Best POSsible taste.

Absolutely quality comic.
I met him briefly in the 70's.
I was painting some prop sets in bbc television studios in wood lane.
Such a funny man😂
I could imagine him being very shy in real life.
@@crazysoupforever just a normal guy really. He was funny in group situations.
Made q joke about me n my gaffer painting the film sets.😅
Absolutely brilliant ahead of his time
Many comparisons with Spike Milligan off the wall humour with deep meaning brilliant 😅
I watched this as a kid growing up in Kalgoorlie Western Australia.
Two of the lines I remember from Kremen if the Star Corp was.. "Carla you look tired. Didn't you sleep well?" She replied " the people next door kept me awake. They were banging on the walls." Kremen said " They should do it in bed like everyone else."
The other one was that someone said to Kremen that they were a country member. Kremen said "Yeah, I remember."
I remember the line 'Is that Hortence?' 'No, she looks pretty relaxed to me'!
I loved the Kenny Everett shows

Saturday the 14th?
Bloodbath at the House of Death. Brilliant bit, that was...
At the 40min point here: ua-cam.com/video/IO_eA20H0D8/v-deo.html
KE absolute legend. I'm crying with laughter now .
He was so great. Far back days when Kenny was on Radio Caroline. Yes, those were the days ❤
Loved this show. Was awesome.
Brilliant show, Cliff was a brilliant sport too.
I used to love Kenny, great times.
GBH of the ear 'ole. Have to remember that one.
Still makes me laugh, . We miss you Kenny
Brilliant show!
Another brilliantly original show that would not be commissioned now. We were very lucky.
F yeah.
Sadly reality TV replaced great comedy like this.
That’s cheered me up on this poxy Monday morning!
Sid Snot and Angry of Mayfair,two of my fave Ev characters.
My favourite Kenny character.
Kenny always made me laugh hard never get sick of it need more videos
I really miss Kenny's zany humour. There is nothing like it on tv today, just endless game
shows, and reality shows. There is a guy on You-tube called Stevie Riks, he should have
his own show. He is brilliant at taking off just about everyone in the music business.
I concur Stevie Riks is brilliant.
I agree. Still, who needs boring TV when we have UA-cam. Stevie Riks is way too good for today's TV.
For a d j he was a good comic, still funny all these years later.
Kenny Everett born in 1944. If he was alive today he would be 80.
I was to young to appreciate this legend first time around.
“Mental Cripples” 😂😂😂😂
Almost got thrown off a bit when he asked, “Anyone got a rubber?” until I remembered that is what the UK call an eraser!
The 'bird cage __it' joke is in The Two Ronnies Crossword sketch.
4:08 ... "Oh! Roy Rogers" ... "Doesn't everybody?" LOL.
Still brilliant: and funnier than anything in the last 5 years.
He was one of a kind extremely talented and funny comedian he died to young RIP
"OI! How much is it?" 😆
How I remember that line...
It was all done in the best possible taste.
Haven't laughed so much for a long time 😅 Kenny a legend, plus brilliant script writing,but it was the way Kenny delivered the lines,he was the best 🤩
He was so anarchic.
Yeah he was awesome. We grew up watching him.
brilliant
Aw god I miss his humour, a genuinely funny man and loved by so many. Died far to young.
On occasion, he actually managed to catch a cigarette in his mouth. 😅
🤣🤣🤣
I love when told the joke about feeding the pigeons in Trafalgar Square... to his cat.
Sid caught the cigarette in his mouth... and ate it!
With the cost of cigarettes today, that could be expensive when outside on a wet street. Cool move though.
Love the show infact I grew up watching Kenny 😂
I loved watching his show
He still makes me laugh
Some of the best memories of my childhood, along with the Goodies and the Goon Show, unfortunately, there is nothing today that can compare with that humour👍😃
Most of it wouldn't even be allowed nowadays.
Funny how we went from prudish, to daring right back to prudish again.
@@ThieflyChap oh so true my friend, oh so true😖 it's got me buggered🤨
@@ThieflyChap Sadly you have to be very careful what you write and say these days. People are so easily offended today.
😂 i used to looove this show!
fantastic guy i piss my self with laughter god bless you Kenny 🙏 ❤
David Essex sat on a bike, great!
How we need his comedy now! I'll bring the corn plasters!
Classic comedy
Sid Snot. They told me to fill in a questionnaire, so I beat up the doorman. That and the first time he caught the cig in his mouth are the 2 sketches i laughed hardest at. It was all done in the best possible taste!
