    To understand just how funny this was back then bear in mind the dull crap normally on TV and how life for most people in the UK was pretty naff. Kenny came in with a combination of visual gags and the provocative 'Hot Gossip' dance troup which pretty much ensured every UK male 12-30 would be watching. I know I was!!!!!!!!!!
    *Bonus content* - Kenny appeared in drag with huge breasts and full beard in his 'in the best possible taste' sketches. He was always referred to as 'Cupid' or 'Ms. Stunt' but never the two together on grounds of TV profanity rules. He origionally wanted his charactor to be called 'Mary Hinge' which the TV execs rejected outright.
    Kenny was an absolut riot and bloody comedy genious!

      He had to deal with homophobia all his life due to the sociological factors which normalize bigotry and prejudice, and for which "woke" and progressive culture are the conscious antidote. And like many comedians, his humour was an expression of complex emotions which result from dealing with that casual bigotry and prejudice. So you claim to like him, but you don't give a damn about what he had to go through, or anyone else? Typical, selfish right wing apathy.
