Remembering Kenneth Williams

This compilation brings together wonderful highlights of Kenneth Williams’ career. For more than 30 years, Kenneth Williams kept the nation in stitches with his outrageous gallery of comic creations and an effortlessly brilliant barrage of repartee and innuendo on radio and television. In 'Beyond Our Ken' and 'Round the Horne', Kenneth Williams brought us the popular characters of Rambling Syd Rumpo, J. Peasemold Gruntfuttock and Sandy (of Julian & Sandy). 'Remembering... Kenneth Williams' wouldn’t be complete without his legendary contributions to 'Hancock’s Half Hour' and 'Just A Minute'. And there’s more: songs, sketches, clips from 'Parkinson', 'Just Williams', and Williams himself reading from his witty autobiography. Also featured are Clement Freud, John Betjeman and Simon Hoggart. It’s a lifetime’s-worth of laughter-making in one recording. It’s Kenneth at his campest. This recording was previously released as 'Kenneth Williams at the Beeb'.
