I’ve been searching for this forever! I remember seeing it at the time. Julian was my idle and got the pleasure in meeting him when he picked me out of the front row collecting coats and bags. I wanted to be like Julian at college so much that I started to wear outrageous costumes and makeup until I nearly got beaten up! That’s my story. Thanks PP 😌
You should check out the others he mentioned. Frankie Howard, Larry Grayson & Kenneth Williams.Though they weren’t out, homosexuality was still illegal when they started their careers, they were all highly camp performers fronting prime time tv shows. A big difference between the US & UK is that in the UK there’s always been queer & highly camp performers in mainstream entertainment, going back to the 50s..
I always remember Julian clarey being known as the Joan Collins fan club and he had a dog called fanny a grey hound I think it was or a whippit and he would wear tall sky crappers on his shoulders and I swear to God it was probably him that put ideas in Gary Neville and his navvies heads to build them mahoosive humungus monstrous bluddy sky scrappers in Manchester city center 😠
One thing I read about him years ago is his dad's a policeman and his mam is a social worker no idea if it's true I read a lot of mad stuff and folks tell me mad stuff
The real puchline of the joke ("talk about a red box") was very clever, but unfortunately lost amid the furore. I still think that, if enough people had heard it, the reaction would not have been so OTT ....

I’m in the US & have found, Julian & the late, Paul O’Grady since, Paul’s passing. 2 amazing entertainers & nice men.

I found him through Taskmaster. Like so many other British comedians I have come to adore. Now I watch anything and everything I can find about him.
Such a beautiful soul
Holy shit it's Captain Peacock!
I love this man.xxx
I love you Julian. You are so gentle in a mean way
“Early attempt at cruising” 😂😂
Totally adorable.. and I’ve read his Young Man’s Passage

He’s gorgeous
great. adore him.
"The homosexual community"! Ha. Man, we have made serious social progress in the last few decades.
Hahahahahaha! Mike Smith was well-known for being a prick ;)
@@ppotter a cheesy one at that.

Mum was a probation officer, and dad a policeman, true.
😍😘♥️ and he's a fit bit still

Thr hetro crime rate view was spot on.
Why was the joke censored from the documentary? Not from UK , so what was the fisting joke?

@@mAiSiEbOOOO Which is nonsensical.. JC's character was established and the context made it clear that it wasn't factual.
11:46 it got WHAT?
"Blown out [of all proportion]"
@@ppotter sorry, it was meant to be an innuendo
@@csurname sorry, I thought you were a confused American (or similar) 🤭
Julian Clary has most talent in his little finger than Paul Merton has in his whole body!
And yet Merton wrote with him for a decade.
They were friends. Merton wasn't being serious.
he is alot funnier then Paul Merton ha lol
I think Merton was being playfully scathing. They were friends and often worked together.
WTF!!!...LoL-o..Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa........NOT!
