@@andypsa5131 He never actually admitted to being ever gay. He was fascinating character. "Williams often said that he was asexual and celibate, and his diaries appear to substantiate his claims - at least from his early forties onwards. He lived alone all his adult life and had few close companions apart from his mother, and no significant romantic relationships." He was more in love with himself and the idea of sex with a man or woman repulsed him. Its a mistake to think he was gay. Unlike Charles Hawtrey who was openly gay and had many lovers a week.
@@andypsa5131 I alway believed he was but apparently not. In the documentary and his diaries that he wrote all his life showed nothing. He was in love only with himself. Like i said he was a complex character. The idea of sex repulsed him. Not saying he was not an odd ball but he was not gay.
So true, I'm 55, grew up laughing along with the Carry On Gang, The 3 Stooges, The Goodies, Aunty Jack, On The Buses etc, and for all of those- more is better to this day, could never get too much.
@@martinjones5965 He was a very astute man and could hold an audience captive with his amazing wit for hours. Agreed his sexuality does not matters. He was addicted to himself and had little time for peoples opinions. He was apparently very self obsessed.
I used to work for a tour operator located round the corner from Williams' flat. He used to book with us and though I never spoke to him directly, he would entertain everyone in the shop while he was there. He had his demons but he made so many people incredibly happy. We don't seem to appreciate characters these days, everything is bland and uniform, but I'm glad he and I were alive and in the same area at the same time. Thank you, Kenneth.
It's occurred to me that these days, I believe ppl in the limelight have it too easy in some ways or think that it's too easy and then just play the game to make it, hence we lack the true originals who know how hard it was and had to strive to make it happen. Williams was a perfect example of someone who strived through his own torture and made it happen and lived for it without having an ostentatious living abode.
Yeah bland. A really good word to describe today's entertainer's. What a character he was. When he read stories they were brilliant and carry on. One of a kind❤
I grew up in the late 70’s /early 80’s when Jackanory and the Carry On films were staples on TV. Watching Kenneth Williams in 2024 I’m still bowled over by how good a reconteur he was. I could listen to him for hours and indeed thanks to RUclips I have done. It’s not an exaggeration to say he was a true original.
This man inserted syllables where they had never before existed and made us all wonder why we hadn't thought of pronouncing words like that. What an absolute delight.
I can't imagine a chat show today that would let someone speak this long! What a fantastic storyteller and how great that he is given the opportunity to let loose....
Well parky was the best ever at giving the stars a chance to shine ,Michael Parkinson is still living and is in his 87th year like Attenborough and a handful of others he is a true international treasure
Yes, Parky just let them talk. The guests he had on mostly were wonderfully entertaining (Meg Ryan being an exception). Kenneth could/would ramble on for ages. Thoughly entertaining
What a talent Kenneth Williams was. On talk shows & interviews I could listen to this guy for hours with his elegant & witty stories. Very few like him around these days. Great articulator.
How wonderful was that, I'd travel to be in that man's company, such an entertainer and every story heavily tinged with truthful accounts. So glad I grew up listening to and watching him 👍
Absolutely wonderful. Watching this in 2022 and its still really funny. What a British treasure he was and may he now Rest In Peace. Thank you Kenneth ❤
What an absolute brilliant entertainer with impeccable timing and beautiful gestures . Kenneth Williams will never be replaced as he was simply unique . I am 63 and regularly watch carry on movies again and again …they were simply brilliant and so britishingly marvellous
Nowadays most whites kids in London speak English with a hybrid Jamaican dialect which is very different from the anglo saxon dialect of English which was spoken by Kenneth Williams. In the early 2000's, young white kids on council estates in London became JAMAICANISED. This is when they starting speaking with English with a hybrid Jamaican dialect. For example, Essex county is the only place in Britain where the cockney dialect/and or accent is still spoken.
Kenneth Williams still warms the hearts of us who had the pleasure watching this unique and beautiful talented man when alive and to this day what he left behind puts a smile on our faces. I hope the new generation can appreciate his special talent and his personal and hidden pain that he made light of for the next 100 years. He should never be forgotten and always be a bench mark for similar actors who strive to overcome their demons.
I had the great pleasure of meeting him at the Royal Festival Hall in London December 1985 at a book signing for his new book 'Just Williams' £8.95. I found him fantastic just for a couple of minutes and an occasion I will never forget. he was very nice, kind and civil and extremely witty. I am sure that we all miss him and of course Michael Parkinson who has just left us. I really loved Kenneth William's favourite anecdote about Mae West who was given explanation about all-in wrestling, the half nelson, the full nelson etc and started to get bored and retorted 'Honey, if it's all in why wrestle'. Very clever I thought. Sincere Regards Peter Starr North London UK
Most excellent upload. Parkinson didn't ask many questions because Kenneth Williams was the master of anecdotes, double entendre and innuendo. Russell Harty, another great interviewer during the same period, referred to Williams as 'sublime'.
He had such a great memory of events..never pausing..with great wit and respect....and such a career from Carry on to Shakespeare and working with Orson Welles ! And his insights of what really happens behind the scenes is hilarious! Would have loved just to have dinner with him for an evening with friends..priceless!!
As an American, I only know Kenneth Williams from the Carry On films which I find hilarious. It's a shame that he's not more well known here, he was an extraordinary talent to be sure.
@@nkt1 You sure? Heard they got Phil Silvers in for “follow that camel” to appeal to American audiences but it didn’t work. Are Americans really going to get that kind of British humour?
This man was brilliant! So quick witted and immensely entertaining. We miss you Kenneth. RIP. A legend to say the least. We have to remember Parky though 'as he is affectionately known'. Always at the top of his game doing interviews. Brilliant!
I loved him when I was a kid and occasionally watch an old Carry On just to see him. Never saw him interviewed until watching this. Listening to him speak naturally it strikes me what a formidable intellect he had. I had to look him up to see what kind of education he had and was very surprised he had no tertiary education at all, which makes how articulate he is even more exceptional.
The phenomenal Kenneth Williams really must have been an interviewers dream. Ask him one question, sit back and he'll talk fluently, amusingly and effortlessly for as long as you need him too. Genius 👌
Kenneth Williams and Quentin Crisp were two people i could listen to all night long and never get bored ,both had the same captivating manner about them .

If ever I’m down this is one man that makes me smile. I loved Kenneth he was a treasure, I would love to Have met him and no doubt be told to Eff orf by him but I would forgive him anything. We miss you mr. Williams so much in these dreary times.
A big shout also for Parkinson. Still by far the best “chat show” host. The quality of the conversation from his guests is largely a result of Parkinson
I'm glad they're gone - they lived at a time when there was more freedom in the UK and you could be yourself. If they lived nowadays they'd be cancelled, harassed by the authorities and SJWs and kept out of showbiz. They had the best years, if they could see the UK today they'd be horrified.
There are only 2 people i really admired for their wit and immediate replays with humor or double meanings.One is Kenneth Williams and the second is Robin Williams.Both the best of the best and the top of the tops.Never be another 2 like them.Pure geniuses.
What i loved about Parkinson was that he never interfered with the guests once they got going. This is typical example of allowing the very great late K.Williams do his stuff. Not like these days when most hosts are allways butting in!
Loved Round The Horne and Ramblin Syd. I've always been a big fan Kenneth Williams and was thrilled to see a blue plaque showing he lived in a flat close to Madame Tussauds in London.
Brilliant. Aside from Kenneth Williams’s overwhelming talent it’s important to remember how brilliant Parkinsonnwas at bringing the best out of his guests. When it comes to interviewing, less is more.
WHAT A GEM OF A MAN SIMPLY THE BEST I COULD LISTEN TO HIM ALL DAY BUT HIS LIFE WAS TINGED WITH SADNESS WHAT A LEGEND THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE QUITE LIKE HIM AGAIN R I P KENNETH 🙏🌹
Wonderful stuff such a down to earth story teller . I didn't see the Western Judge voice coming. Full of surprises and fun . So comfortable in his skin. Refresh 😁😁😁
When i was growing up i used to watch the carry on films ,kenneth Williams, Barbara Windsor, sid James and all the others in that comedy band ,i used to laugh until i cried ! ,the comedy in those days was much better than the comedy of today . Thankyou mr Williams, may you rest in eternal peace.
An ex boyfriend of mine, a member of the Salvation Army took me, as a visitor to the UK headquarters of the Salvation Army in London...It was not a quarter of a mile away from Kenneth's final apartment, where he died...It was a supreme honour to see the humble, yet last place that such a legend as Kenneth suffered his mortal demise. Requiescat in Pace, Kenneth: You were loved ❤
Just brilliant entertaining stories and impressions from Kenneth. Brought me much mirth, he is just the tonic for a grey day.! Thank you for upload. Bless you.
A chat show host's dream guest. I didn't know Parky had done a chat show in Australia also, but was pleased to see this appear in my youtube. Kenneth never fails to amuse, love it.
Love how he speaks precise, and concise. How we need people like this in society. Love wordsmiths like this, as they know how to entertain by words. By the way, he was not joking about the red-hot needle up the nose to culturize. My brother went through the same as he suffered from nose bleeds.

Largely down to the fact that modern presenters don't know when to shut up.
With Parkinson it was all about the Guest whereas today it is all about the Host - I think that is what makes Parkinson stand out so much

He absolutely loved the attention, if no one acknowledged him in a restaurant, he’d loudly hum and hah till they did. A truly talented star. 😊
A true original, much loved, and I miss him.
Just A Minute. I've come all the way from Great Portland Street
@@seanmaher7733 😂
When you realize you've been watching for 30 minutes of sheer genius .
I was smoking weed and this snidely whiplash dude kept going on . His voices were adding to my buzz. Funny
When this man is on a roll there is no stopping him and why would you want to... he just gets better and better. Incredible.
What a pearl of an interview!
Never seen this before - some cracking anecdotes 🙂🙂
All this energy and enthusiasm he puts onto telling you a story is amazing 👏
One of the memorable voices of my childhood thanks to Willow the Wisp! Great man, what a storyteller!
In his diary KW says he can't understand why Willo The Wisp was so popular. I wish I could have said to him; it's because it's YOU!!!

Kenneth a brilliant mind and a legend ...story tell par excellence....R.I.P
It's fantastic how Parky barely says a word and Kenneth just does the whole interview on his own.
That was Parky's great strength , knowing just how to keep it free and flowing and if you notice , keeping an eye on the other guests . Great bloke .
@@stephenrice4554Absolutely.

He was certainly one of a kind. A character of his time. God rest him.
I've always loved the way his accent weaves between RP and cockney
It is absolutely one of the most remarkable voices I have ever heard. Love it!!
Same! It's delightful!

My God I could listen to this man talk forever. So posh, deep and classy

We will all try to forgive you for being an American as it cannot be an easy task
This is the first time I’ve heard an American who knows the carry on films

@@nkt1 You sure? Heard they got Phil Silvers in for “follow that camel” to appeal to American audiences but it didn’t work. Are Americans really going to get that kind of British humour?
His impersonations are no lees accurate and broad than those of Robin Williams. Absolute world class mimic.

I could listen to Kenneth Williams all day and all night and all day again
Absolutely loved Kenneth Williams, what a sense of humor and intellect. He was a genius💖
What a treat for the audience, to sit there listening to Kenneth while studying the stunning Marti Caine
Kenneth Williams' voice was once used(likely imitated by Keith Scott) for a TV ad for *"Bloo"* toilet cleaner - a very appropriate placement.
I loved him when I was a kid and occasionally watch an old Carry On just to see him. Never saw him interviewed until watching this. Listening to him speak naturally it strikes me what a formidable intellect he had. I had to look him up to see what kind of education he had and was very surprised he had no tertiary education at all, which makes how articulate he is even more exceptional.
For many reasons: Only something special makes me laugh
Kenneth Williams, was and still is something very special ❤
The phenomenal Kenneth Williams really must have been an interviewers dream. Ask him one question, sit back and he'll talk fluently, amusingly and effortlessly for as long as you need him too. Genius 👌
Wind him up and let him go!
Kenneth Williams, Peter Ustinov and Stephen Fry, all three great raconteurs, each one with his own style
Can't stand Fry - the liberal smug is too much.
@@thadtuiol1717 😂 🎯
Stephen Fry doesn’t deserve to be placed amongst those greats. The bloke is not a good man.
What a beautiful storyteller he was. And the sounds of his voice!
I’m trying to compare him
To maybe bobcat goldthwaite. All over the place voices . His own personal movie playing in his head
I could listen to this man all day his play on words and how he alters his voice to suit his stories is just brilliant,
Priceless! What a genius.
The Words paint his memories on a canvas for our gazing pleasure.

What a treasure he was. So many , mostly gone now. Uk Comedy will never be the same
I'm glad they're gone - they lived at a time when there was more freedom in the UK and you could be yourself. If they lived nowadays they'd be cancelled, harassed by the authorities and SJWs and kept out of showbiz. They had the best years, if they could see the UK today they'd be horrified.
I've seen a lot of interviews with KW, but I think these was one of his best. The theatre anecdotes were hilarious. :-D
There are only 2 people i really admired for their wit and immediate replays with humor or double meanings.One is Kenneth Williams and the second is Robin Williams.Both the best of the best and the top of the tops.Never be another 2 like them.Pure geniuses.

Kenneth Williams and Stephen Fry ..I could listen to them all day
Me too
Nah, not Fry, the Lefty liberal smug is too much to bear.
He was wonderful and a great story teller. So articulate and witty. Irreplaceable
Intelligent and the recollection of his life was amazing! A gem!
All credit to Parkinson he allows his guests to shine and brings out the best in them every time.
What i loved about Parkinson was that he never interfered with the guests once they got going. This is typical example of allowing the very great late K.Williams do his stuff.
Not like these days when most hosts are allways butting in!
Loved Round The Horne and Ramblin Syd. I've always been a big fan Kenneth Williams and was thrilled to see a blue plaque showing he lived in a flat close to Madame Tussauds in London.
Unique talent, a true entertainer, irreplaceable ❤
Always guaranteed lots of laughs with Kenneth when you saw a carry on film
Brilliant. Aside from Kenneth Williams’s overwhelming talent it’s important to remember how brilliant Parkinsonnwas at bringing the best out of his guests. When it comes to interviewing, less is more.
True. Someone needs to tell that jizz sock Fallon.
Legendary talent, been no one like him since
A few like him but just not funny ,Robin Williams / Jim Carey ,for instance
I could listen to him all day

THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE

This is a new one for YT - most of us haven’t seen this one before. Thank you.
This was recorded 41 years ago when KW was much younger than I am now ( in my 70s) there will never be another KW the broke the mold.
Absolutely wonderful!

Comic genius. What a pity his personal life was so sad. I hope he realised how loved and admired he was.
All the greats are gone from the TV golden days, Kenneth was a treasure .🇬🇧
I listened to Just A Minute radio show at work in the 80s. Kenneth was so funny at times I could't work as I was nearly ROFL. Wonderful entertainer. ❤
