Des and Kenny Everett from 1990 - ITV
A little gem from ITV. Des O'Connor chats to Kenny Everett who is, for him in a really sensible mood!

Sadly missed but not forgotten, both on radio and TV, R.I.P. He was the best and years ahead of your time, just so talented...
if I could go back in time Kenny would be the one person I would save, he's my comedy hero and still sadly missed

An utterly brilliant comedian. Sharp as a blade!
A comedy hero for those of a certain age,like myself. We all couldn't wait to see his video show and talk about it in school the next day,like Not the Nine o clock News too.
RIP Kenny Everett , sadly missed x

If he were around now he'd be using Facebook, Twitter and likely still being hilarious on the Radio.
Kenny Everett and Rik Mayall my favourite British comedians.

Love Kenny Everett.Great comedian.Loved his show back in the 80s & when he was a guest on Blankety Blank.Very much sadly missed.RIP Kenny ♥️♥️
A true one of a kind. Still sadly missed.
Man I loved the KE show, especially Captain Kremin
Loved watching Kenny Everett
This has all been lost these days, so happy I grow up in the 80s
I loved Everett, especially when he did his "Angry of Mayfair" sketches.
@Fender1976uk Yes I agree the signs of his illness are beginning to show. Kenny was a 'one off' in comedic terms, the man was simply a genius. There are very few if any comics these days that are half as good as he was. He was a genuinely nice person too., Thanks for your comments.
Even when I was 11 or 12 I always listened to his radio show every week on the BBC. I used to be the only one at home that did that. I think it could have been on Saturdays, but I may be mistaken, my memory isnt that good now. Then of course there was his TV show we always watched as a family and hearing the film crew laughing in the background was kind of ground-breaking. Nobody had ever done that before, it was almost a shock to hear it at first. It was always the stars of the show would be heard and you wouldn't hear a sound out of the crew, or you'd have to do another take. I just loved his style of comedy, it was so mad, it was what made it brilliant and I loved that. His style of comedy is much funnier then most comedians today and he was such a lovely guy too. I would put him on a par with Spike Milligan. I would have loved to have had him around still today, but he just died way too young. RIP Kenny. 😭
You know when people ask, if you could host a dinner party with 5 guests who are no longer with us.....who would you pick? Kenny has always been my number 1. I was a child when was at the height of his fame, but I used to catch his shows as a sneaked on to the top of the steps and watched it from my vantage point as my parents went about their business downstairs, completely unaware. Kenny was an absolute genius. So funny and so interesting. He went far far too soon.

Amaan Storm Check out the radio programme “Dream dinner party” on BBC Radio 4. It’s exactly the concept you mention. Kenny was included in this episode. It’s not a real dinner party of course but the programme is brilliantly made. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0008h3n. All the episodes are worth listening to.
Damn I miss Kenny,he was taken far too young. He was An absolute natural
Des O'Connor Tonight was a fantastic show on ITV - it always aired mid week, when there would be a lull in programmes, and the weekend was still far off, this was a perfect pick me up show for mid week, and now in 2019/2020 what do we have on Wednesdays ITV - Coronation Street and Emmerdale ...... That's nice.
Bloody comedy at its best love Kenny part of my childhood!!
A true Legend sadly missed x

A very funny man I watched him as a teenager missed by everyone.

Kenny was diagnosed with HIV in 1989, so he knew that in this 1990 video--yet he still put on a brave face.
He died far too young. 50 is nothing. I'm 78.
Classy tv show, gold standard guests from the zenith of tv.
@TheMusicman12ize Yes he certainly was a 'one off' a much loved guy, and comedian, presenter, DJ you name it, Kenny could turn his hand to it. Thank You fior sharing yout thoughts. GLF
Kenny and Whitney, two immortals who left us way, way to early. Thanks for the clip GLF.
I'm not gay but I would cuddle him for all of us,we miss him so much.😘
Such a rib achingly funny man. The KE Show always had me gasping for breath. Cupid Stunt, Gizzard Puke, Syd Snot, Marcel, Kaptain Kremmin et al. Seeing Thelma Barlow at the end there reminds me of her role as Dolly in Victoria Wood's unmatched 'Dinnerladies'. Another genius of comedy who left us way too young, like Kenny did.

Difficult to compare, they had vague similarities, but Robin was more of a machine gun and a lot of his act was thriving on riding his nervousness. Kenny's insecurity was covered more by the taking of risks (the infamous Let's Bomb Russia moment) some of which paid off. I've done similar, said something which has shocked everyone but I always went to the person afterwards, then explained that it was for effect. I loved them both because they had their unique traits that nobody could imitate nowadays because it would look shite and clichéd. I'm glad I grew up with Ken and discovered you never truly had to stop being childish altogether.
It was taped on Wednesday 12th December 1990.

My goodness we were so blessed back then. Kenny Everett & Whitney Houston. Wonderful TV compared to now........... 🙄

I get the feeling that comedians loved going on Des' show, because he knew exactly how to help them get the biggest laughs. Plus, he always seemed to laugh like a loon at their material. Top bloke.
I was not contradicting myself at all. I was merely pointing out the right of others to express their opinions, yourself included. I suggested you learnt to be tolerant of the opinions of others. I did not say you had no right to express your own opinions. I am pleased you enjoyed the 'upload'.
Typical Kenny, comes on for 6 minutes and steals the show with his unique storytelling and ability to see the absurd in life. A man who often got the rough end of the press but who his fans miss even 28 years after his passing . A unique guy who left us way too early.
Ohhhh...I wish you had the part with Brian Connelly too. Always had a crush on him and especially after his short stint in "I'm A Celebrity"
Blimey, both Kenny and Whitney are now no longer with us...life is short folks, enjoy it while you can.
Nice clip....Good ol' Ken.....then Whitney...both gone :-(....I wonder if the medication that is available for HIV that is available now would have kept Ken going 'til now? He would have loved the net!

Yes it would have, he missed out by only about 2 years.
If I remember correctly it was shown on a Wednesday evening at 9pm, but I am willing to be corrected! GLF
I remember this Des O'Connor chat show, what time was it usually shown? I seem to remember having to watch it, when my mum was at work late, and we had to stay longer at the childminder's.
Hi, Thanks for your comment. GLF

cupid stunt 🤣
Sir kenny
1989 he was told he had HIV, so he knew he was in trouble here hence why he began body building etc
"Relevantly short career - Whitney Houston." Trust Des...(God bless ya Kenny!)
Absoloutely. GLF
Two wonderful people , you will never see their like again, TV dont want them , thats why its 100 channels of cheap crap!!

I agree the subject is rather morbid. Having said that, freedom of speech/writing is enjoyed by most people these days. Perhaps you should learn to be tolerant of the opinion of others, whatever the subject matter!.
