Kenny has the sweetest smile. I just fell in love with him here in this interview. Such a sweet man. Shame he had to die so young back in 1995, a year were we said goodbye to so many great British stars - Jeremy Brett, Paul Eddington, Peter Cook, Larry Grayson among many.

Such a brilliant interview. Mavis never failed to manage to make celebrities feel relaxed. She also gave an interview with Kenneth Williams which was equally fascinating to watch. Always allowing the person she was talking to time to answer, whereas these days interviewers seem to be forever interrupting the person they have before them. To see Kenny Everett relaxed in her company is compulsive viewing.

An interesting interview. He seems a bit uncomfortable but still bares his soul here and I wonder if this was because he was aware of his Aids diagnosis when this was recorded. The journalists who hounded him into coming out should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves as it was nobody's business but his. He certainly didn't deserve the treatment he got but I guess this was a third of a century ago and it was a different public mentality. At least he responds well to Mavis (who only died a month ago herself) so he felt he can talk to her, I certainly didn't know his ex-wife (who also died this year) had previously been involved with Billy Fury. Kenny was such an interesting chap, the world is a poorer place without him. His impression of Michael Winner, another larger than life character, is also spot on.

liam whitcombe ... so nothing to do with Nikolai or indeed the Pepe Flores - a Spanish waiter that later moved in to join them? Nikolai Grishanovich succumbed to hiv in 1993 of the same strain on hiv as killed Kenny (you may be unaware that there are several distinct strains of the virus). Kenny was also reportedly a fairly regular visitor to the Coleherne pub (now has a new name) which was at the time at the heart of the leather scene in London. You couldn’t behave that way in 80s/90s London without a huge degree of risk. I don’t know what your issue with Freddie Mercury is, but as you can’t speak factually, maybe you should just keep your bile to yourself. Just as Mercury was a master at his art, Kenny was technically brilliant and in a field of his own, multitracked vocals, and even more subtle tricks like “the lying lyric” from his later capital gold shows illustrate what a fantastically talented and completely underrated broadcaster this man was, and how much poorer the British broadcasting industry is for his loss.

Some of my earliest memories are of Kenny Everett. I was too young to understand why he was funny other than I remember being entranced by his wacky antics and seeing my Mum and Dad crying with laughter. He was responsible for a few of the happiest moments I can remember in my early childhood, He's the only big personality of that time in my life that I cherish other than David Attenborough. Kenny felt like the fun crazy uncle that you only got to see occasionally and David was the kindly wise uncle. I've watched a few tributes and documentaries about Kenny recently and been pleased to find out that he was a genuinely crazy beautiful man that I would have been proud to be able to say was a family member.

As a child I used to watch his show. Innocent soft spot (crush maybe) on KE. Loved his show although my Dad didn't like us watching it. (Come on between KE and Benny Hill). We just never knew as fans his sexuality. As with why were we really surprised with Freddy Mercury, Marc Almond ,George Michael? It never mattered when it came out then.

They were probably Gay themselves, that seemed to be the theme back then. Nail somebody else up in order to protect yourself. Remember that Kenny was married to a Woman and yet was probably not Bi, it was just common practice to protect oneself against the homophobic majority. Whether right or wrong is open to discussion, but it was just the way it was.

As the black British comedian Richard Blackwood says. “ it’s not the same as being black, because when he reached 19 he didn’t have to say to his parents. Mum , Dad , I think I’m a black man.” Unfortunately they both have their individual difficulties because of narrow minded bigoted people. Hopefully one day the words of the Emperor of Ethiopia to the League of Nations. Until the colour of a man’s skin is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes. The same can be applied to the bedroom practices of a human. I have heard there was no prejudice until Queen Victoria lost Albert and decided to make homosexuality between men illegal but she didn’t mention women. They promote these prejudices to keep the majority population divided and fighting each other. To prevent our unity as we might notice that they are extorting us and take the control and money off them.
