	THE KENNY EVERETT VIDEO SHOW \| A TELEVISION HEAVEN REVIEW
		The Kenny Everett Video Show was by no means his first attempt to transfer his particular brand of quick-fire zany humour from radio to television, but it was beyond a doubt his most successful.
		By 1978 it mercifully had, and Everett, in only the way that Everett could, grasped it with both hands, turned it inside out, upside down and on its head and used it in a way that no one had before to produce truly groundbreaking comedy of the highest order.
		Kenny Everett's mischievous humour often got him into trouble and several times this led to a termination of his employment.

		Kenny was a genuine original; a rare talent who managed to break all the broadcasting rules and yet somehow make it work...
		He was Maurice Cole for the first twenty years of his life, taking the name Kenny Everett (the surname borrowed from the American comic actor Edward Everett Horton) on legal advice before making his broadcasting debut on pirate Radio London, the slickest of the stations that ringed the UK's coastline in the mid-sixties.
		The success of ‘The Kenny Everett Video Show' and its successors, in which his fascination for what could be done with the fast-changing technologies of television echoed his earlier audio improvisations, meant that until his death in 1995 he divided his energies between both media.

		In early 1967, Kenny quit the pirates and approached the BBC again, who provided him a programme on May 20th presenting a preview of a new Beatles album.
		One of the highlights of the early Radio One schedule was Kenny Everett's weekend morning show (started January, 1968) which featured a number of comic characters, including his butler, Crisp, and Gran (voiced by Kenny himself).

	Radio London Kenny Everett Tribute Pages P1
		Kenny Everett was a DJ very much responsible for the great success of Radio London, and for changing the face of British broadcasting for ever.
		During a surfing expedition in 2000, it was surprising to discover Kenny Everett to be top of the list of favourite presenters of retired CBC presenter, Art Rockwood, in Newfoundland, Canada.
		When Kenny died a few years back, I did a tribute to him on my show here in Newfoundland and included a couple of samples of his work, even though I knew my listeners didn't know of Kenny Everett.

		Kenny Everett's zany, irreverent humour and his Liverpudlian charm were complimented by his stunning creativity.
		When the Marine Offences (Broadcasting) Act outlawed pirate radio in 1967 Kenny joined the BBC and with their facilities at his command his creativity reached new heights.
		Eventually Kenny admitted he was suffering from AIDS and his decline was rapid.

		I had been a fan of his Big L programmes, of course, but it was a joy to discover that he was as much fun to work with as I had always imagined.
		Kenny used to have a feature called the 'memory module' on his weekend shows.
		Kenny came over the talkback and said, "God – they made some awful records back then!" and without thinking I replied, "You should do a whole programme of them." When the tape finished, Kenny invited his listeners to send in the worst records in their collections.

	BBC - Comedy Guide - The Kenny Everett Video Show
		Further, for a man who had pioneered truly creative audio entertainment in the pop field, visual technology had finally caught up with him by 1978, and Everett was able for the first time to be almost as inventive on TV as he was on the radio.
		The shows were recorded in front of a minimal audience and the crew behind the cameras were encouraged to break their silence and laugh, call out or even be seen during the recordings, a technique new to almost all viewers but much copied since.
		As with his radio shows, Kenny Everett presided over an array of characters and sketches that would appear each week, their very familiarity helping the comedy to work.

		Both shows kept their edge and it was Kenny's own decision to give it up and concentrate on radio before the TV show got stale.
		Unfortunately when he got to the last series, Kenny Everett wanted to do a sitcom, but the Beeb (as Kenny was the first person to call the BBC) wanted him to do more sketch shows.
		I had no idea Everett was a deejay until a couple of months ago when a friend of mine played me a tape of the Beatles singing a song about him to him on his old British radio show in the 1960s.

	Kenny Everett : Comedian Profile
		Kenny Everett (Born Maurice Cole) came to prominence in the 1960s on the pirate radio station, Radio London.
		This was a vehicle for Kenny's characters and sketches, interspersed with pop hits of the day, which were often presented through the very risqué (for the time) dance group, Hot Gossip.
		While his radio shows continued in the same vein and were as popular as ever, by the late 1980s the TV show format had run its course, and Kenny's personal life was becoming increasingly complicated.

		The risqué humour, special effects, overtly sexual dancers and gamut of local stars (Lionel Blair, Cliff Richard, Bernard Manning, David Essex et alia) propelled the former radio DJ Kenny Everett (born Maurice Cole in Liverpool in 1944) to the realms of television superstar in the UK.
		Kenny Everett - The Complete Naughty Bits is another example of television comedy which served a purpose at the time.

		Not so with Kenny - this classic collection of sketches features all the well-known characters we've come to treasure, going from crude to worse and yet, due to some undefinable gift, Kenny manages to bring it off IN THE BEST POSSIBLE TASTE; there are even some astonishingly precise and sensitive characterisations that come quite unexpectedly.

	"The Kenny Everett Video Show" (1978) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Kenny Everett Video Show, lays down the blueprints for the zany comics later and more influential Television show, but in its own right is as funny, innovative and as welcome as anything Cuddly Ken had ever created on the airwaves or the tube.
		Although Everett had flirted with the medium before, most notably on TV Sketch Series like The Kenny Everett Explosion, Making Whoopee and Ev, it was only by 1978, that the technological advances of Television had found its way up to his unique level.
		The impact of the series was so strong from the public, and the viewing figures so great that Everett was blasted in to Superstardom, and the outcome of wich was the later and better Television Series.

	DVD Web - Review:Kenny Everett - The Complete Naughty Bits! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In the early 80s, Kenny decided to concentrate more on comedy/satirical TV shows and this DVD set samples some of his 'best bits' from 'The Kenny Everett Show' TV series.
		There are some problems as well with Kenny's studio based footage, ranging from image ghosting, colour bleeding, digital noise reduction artifacts, edge enhancement effects, some moire type effects, some aliasing...
		This DVD is clearly a great tribute item to Kenny's vision & humour but it has to be said that the humour is very 70s/80s, using ideas & sequences which were generally controversial for that era.
