1979&80s Kenny Everett Funny Bits

- A few of the best bits I captured from Kenny's TV shows. I compiled this collection of Kenny sketches back in the early 80s for a video party I was having.
I created a 3 hour vhs tape of my favourite and popular songs at the time from TOTP, OGWT and various other music performances to play at the party instead of vinyl. To make it more interesting I edited in a Kenny segment from his tv shows I had recorded in between several of the songs. For example the Cliff bits were spread over the 3 hours. My selection was based on his Sid character. Of course his other characters are hilarious too but I just wanted Sid for the party. The party was a great success. When clearing out old vhs tapes during lockdown I found the tape and decided to bring all the Kenny bits I used together in one piece and post it to my collection so I had it online. The video party idea was ahead of its time just like Kenny. Enjoy!
If sharing please credit bit.ly/alansvcollection thx. Capturing cool bits & pieces as I transfer my 70s&80s+ VHS collection from tape to Mac. Enjoy! (All rights respected. Sharing for pleasure and not for any financial gain. Happy to remove if requested) / alansvideocollection - เพลง
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.
The best form of comedy Laughing at one's self and the whole world as well🙂
Kenny Everett was a legend
@Nicola Fenton Do you get paid to laugh ?
I wish I did.
And it was all done in the best, possible, taste!
He was a breath of fresh air.
Thanks. Tv is dull as ditchwater now. RIP Kenny. You total legend.
Ah those were the days...
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.
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.
Good ol cuddly Ken,back in the day,never missed the show 😆👍👍👍
Yes, he was so cuddly.
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.
*THAMES* auntie been would not allow many things that Thames would. Much better show, I think.
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 .
Us kids back in the day loved his humour.....
Kenny was truly brilliant..........way ahead of his time.
Ah nope. About thirty years after the Goons.
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.
Absolutely a comic genius the likes we sadly won’t see again such a iconic funny guy still 😂 at his antics to this day 😅
Hello…Sid Snot here! He and Cupid Stunt always had me in stitches…obviously, all in the best possible taste!
Thanks for sharing this 😂😂
Brings back some classic laughs.
“Piston broke” 😂😂
I know, but what happened?
@@gorillaau 😂😂😂😂
when i was a kid kenny was one of the best things on TV
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
Don't and can't make em like this anymore cos of ?
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.
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.
Saturday the 14th?
Bloodbath at the House of Death. Brilliant bit, that was...

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.
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.
For some reason I have a vivid memory of Cleo Rocos flogging the audience into laughing. Can't think why...
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.
ALL DONE IN THE BEST POSSIBLE TASTE!!!.😎💕🇬🇧🇺🇦
Thanks for this trip down memory lane :) I'm old enough to get more of the jokes now ahahahah
🤣🤣🤣
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.
Same here. I was tiny when this was on, but me, mum and dad LOVED Kenny. Still do.
One of this country's "Best nutters" Miss him!
“Mental Cripples” 😂😂😂😂
Kenny was and is my favorite comedian, loved watching this show when it was originally aired.
Another brilliantly original show that would not be commissioned now. We were very lucky.
F yeah.
Sadly reality TV replaced great comedy like this.
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!!!
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 TH-cam. Stevie Riks is way too good for today's TV.
"Pissed and Broke"
My Fking beer through my Fking broke Nose !
KE absolute legend. I'm crying with laughter now .
I loved the Kenny Everett shows
GBH of the ear 'ole. Have to remember that one.
Morecambe and Wise, Dennis Pennis, Shooting Stars and dear old Kenny. No one takes the piss out of celebrities anymore
He was so great. Far back days when Kenny was on Radio Caroline. Yes, those were the days ❤
Still makes me laugh, . We miss you Kenny
Sid Snot and Angry of Mayfair,two of my fave Ev characters.
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.
I used to love Kenny, great times.
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.😅
kenny corrupted my tiny little miinnnd and I grew up to be a knock off sid snot.
rest in peace kenny
Dear old Kenny - and all done in the Best POSsible taste.
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.
For a d j he was a good comic, still funny all these years later.
Still brilliant: and funnier than anything in the last 5 years.
The 'bird cage __it' joke is in The Two Ronnies Crossword sketch.
Classic comedy
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.
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.
Brilliant show, Cliff was a brilliant sport too.
brilliant
I was to young to appreciate this legend first time around.
"OI! How much is it?" 😆
How I remember that line...
I watched this as a kid growing up in Kalgoorlie Western Australia.
That’s cheered me up on this poxy Monday morning!
Loved this show. Was awesome.
It was all done in the best possible taste.
How we need his comedy now! I'll bring the corn plasters!
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.
Yeah he was awesome. We grew up watching him.
😂 i used to looove this show!
He was one of a kind extremely talented and funny comedian he died to young RIP
Brilliant show!
David Essex sat on a bike, great!
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!
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.
Love the show infact I grew up watching Kenny 😂
Brilliant
The film crew had the best job in the world 😁
Love him! 😜
'Sid Snott 'ere...'.....classic
fantastic guy i piss my self with laughter god bless you Kenny 🙏 ❤
Just brilliant
Aw god I miss his humour, a genuinely funny man and loved by so many. Died far to young.
In the 70s I have whatch this it's pity they dont regrow this again
Love love Kenny, but David ESSEX what a looker !!!!
Only one Kenny,RIP Sid❤
Comedy legend!
The best
4:08 ... "Oh! Roy Rogers" ... "Doesn't everybody?" LOL.
Loved Kenny ❤
Wonderful :)
Today's kids would love him
Almost got thrown off a bit when he asked, “Anyone got a rubber?” until I remembered that is what the UK call an eraser!
Cliff Richard has an amazing sense of humour.
Amazing artist well hilarious 😆
Great Telly..
He was brilliant
David Essex was very good on the show.
David Essex on a bike !!!!!!
What more do you need ??????
Where have all the decent comics gone all been cancelled every one.
A legend in his own lunch time. Good old fashioned comedy you can actually laugh at not like the snowflake comedians we get today.
It was actually considered pretty raunchy back in the day, but far more innovative than the tired old Benny Hill and Two Ronnies stuff that was still getting reruns (and whom Kenny poked fun at on occasion in his own show). Kenny was a pioneer in the use of then state of the art video FX in his sketches. Nobody else did that at the time. I mean, check out the Egghead sketch here (2:52), which still cracks me up (pun intended)!
@@NuGanjaTron i love kenny everetts humour and comedy but ronnie barker is the goat in his own way and love benny hills comedy too...i think kenny did too
@@tonyb5884 Of course there was also the sophistihumour (is that a word?) of "Yes Minister". As a 11-yo or so, it completely escaped me back then!
Kenny was a lifelong SCOUSER.
THE MAN that simple funny as ####!!!
If he was alive he’d be Sir Kenny Everett no doubt in my mind.
I also like his Brother Lee Love character. It's a hoot 😁😁😁😁😁👌👌👌👌👌👌
“I’ve never seen a sardine playing a violin before”… “I’ve seen one playing bagpipes.” 🤣
Ohh the good old days when you could have ACTUAL humour without offending anyone😂😂
