This show was way ahead of it's time, nothing like it on TV today, RIP Kenny.

Kenny Everett was a genuis,I'm 32yrs old but can remember some of his shows before he died,the guy was a LEGEND!! wish he was still around,and the Squeeze nuff said R.I.P Kenny you truly are a comic Legend

Joke at the end is a bloody classic!

This whole show seems like a huge fever dream and I absolutely love it!

Squeeze are an ace band

oh I remember this well!! I loved Kenny Everette so much, he's sadly missed.

Kenny Everett and Squeeze, doesnt get better than that.

Honest to God..Just this whole upload is one I watch at keast 2 - 3 times a month. It just has me howling with tears running down my face because it's so wonderfully silly. Then add in a fantastic song, & great VT..especially with The Sweeney. One of those rare uploads. I can be feeling like shit, but watch this and despite untold views before, it just cheers me uo instantly, and makes me cry with laughter. Rare thing. RIP Kenny. Legend.

Bloody hell this takes me back!

a true blast from the past

I love how Glen is so connected to his guitar.

Kenny E. Much loved and missed genius.

We want Squeeze back together !!!

Love Cool for cats, and Kenny.. Ahead of his time!!! :)

0.43 our fave part of the kenny everett video show it is off the lone ranger by quantum jump kenny had some stunning bands on his show and squeeze i love them.

I SAW THIS EPISODE BACK IN THE DAY! I've been thinking about this all day - stunning to discover it's here!

Where would we be if hadn't had Sid Snot in our lives?

In good old Aussie, I fondly remember the Thames TV intro before the Match of the Day played over here on a Monday night with Brian Moore way back in the seventies. Happy days.

Wow! The back projection during the Squeeze song is so much like something that would be made on a laptop today!

Only Kenny had the balls to play Bohemian Rhapsody in full on Capital Radio.....it made Queen!!

KEYBOARD PLAYER - LIKE A BOSS

Great that thanks, there'll never be another syd snott

Brilliant! Thanks for posting.

Really catchy song! Hooray for the 80s!

fuckin class at its best

Just saw them live in Dublin- great performance, real pros.

I can't see Kenny Everett and the Thames ident without thinking of you know what.

The Intro….” …Tama….” is Quantum Jump’s The Lone Ranger….0hhhh those were the days my friend….😻😻😻😻😻💃💃⚡️⚡️💃💃⚡️⚡️🌹🔥🌹

Who could ever forget Sid Snot & Cupid Stunt? And the Rod Stewart butt-growing skit?

Kenny Everett - delightfully silly, and a very sad loss for entertainment. RIP

I really hope someone in 25000 years from now finds this video.

Yep def Jools!! Loved Squeeze q:o) hahaha Sid Snot!!!...... So like my m8s ex back in the punk days! hahahaha RIP Kenny...sadly missed :(

I retract my comment , in fact despite being born late 85 I'm heavy in to NEW WAVE music , it fact the middle part of this song ( the instrument solo) sounds very advanced for the late 70s differently a mid 80s new wave sound .

i house-moved chris difford today, random random random! never even heard of squeeze til a couple of weeks back

Tilbrook's playing the Gibson ES-150d that you can see Difford with in the official video

@xxxKINGFROGxxx I remember once Kenny had taken the Thames TV bit & replaced the london skyline with cartoon breasts... cant think why I remember that so vividly!

"hello' mouth on a stick here!" i love it

They're clearly miming to a different recording to the hit version, which is an edit of the full-length album version. Was this one of those Musician's Union rerecordings that had to be done to prove the band didn't mime?

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

gostei muito bom ,não se faz musica como antigamente, essa esta na minha coleção.

GREAT!!! Best regards Guido

Best song new wawe!

good one AYE !!!

Last 10 seconds is Russel Brands entire facade isn't it?

I agree with the comment on the Thames TV logo ! much missed

Personally I always thought Kenny Everitts links into other stuff were the best bits of the show. Never thought much of his characters really, though 'best possible taste' and sid snot did have their moments. He was actually better when he was just talking to the camera himself. Gotta love squeeze, bit anti p.c as well with the old 'oombongo' link there...probably wouldnt be able to get away with that these days despite the fact there is obviously no malice meant.

Sorry, it's just not the same without the legendary dancing girls who appear in other videos of this. :(

Priceless, the best show on earth and twenty five years on political correctness killed the video show IE, british comedy

In this video, he is John Thaw, who was in a car

There's Gilson's nice 20" TAMA bass drum again....hang on...it might be a Ludwig,,,,

twas fanatsic !!!!

Jools is smokin!!

Can anybody believe the guy on keyboards is jools holland :O

Ahhh... a tune from my young days... was it 79´ or 1980.... I dont really remember.

thanks for the delicious new look at jools. ahhh, i'd like to be a cigar for just five minutes...!

@gemimasaliva Have never heard this version, either. It's not on any of my records.

i thought it was - The Escape Club 'Call it Poison' but after watching the clip on youtube, i was pretty close but no cigar!

What for the Sid Snot sketch ? Its the Peter Gunn theme by Duane Eddy. As this show is pre 1986, i guess it must be the original version as opposed to the later recording done with the Art Of Noise.

the audio @ 0.44 is taken from The Lone Ranger by Quantum Jump

@zarathustra2k1 I've also got the single. Pink vinyl in a picture sleeve. It seems like it was only yesterday.

I think it may have something to with the released recording had Harry Kakoulli (sp?) on bass, he left just as CFC was a hit and was replaced by the guy in the clip; John Bentley. So perhaps they had to re-record it to prove they could!

Kennys great. Wonder which one of squeezes pants he got in to

In this Cool for Cats video, the background has two cars and a couple of a man and a woman

@JohnnyLovely2 Brit humour is at its best when its wierd. Monty Python prime example.

Geez, they look like kids!

I see the video in 3:32, what is it?

You know the bit where the face goes "before you can say..." What is that song???? plz help it has been buggin me for months...thanks

What recording is this?

The Indians send signals from the rocks above the pass The cowboys take position in the bushes and the grass The squaw is with the corporal, she is tied against the tree She doesn't mind the language, it's the beatings she don't need She lets loose all the horses when the corporal is asleep And he wakes to find the fire's dead and arrows in his hats And Davy Crockett rides around and says it's cool for cats It's cool for cats Cool for cats The Sweeney's doing 90 'cause they've got the word to go To get a gang of villains in a shed up at Heathrow They're counting out the fivers when the handcuffs lock again In and out of Wandsworth with the numbers on their names It's funny how their Missus always looks the bleeding same And meanwhile at the station, there's a couple of likely lads Who swear like how's your father and they're very cool for cats They're cool for- Cool for cats To change the mood a little, I've been posing down the pub I'm seeing my reflection, I'm looking slightly rough I fancy this, I fancy that, I wanna be so flash I give a little muscle, and I spend a little cash But all I get is bitter and a nasty little rash And by the time I'm sober, I've forgotten what I've had And everybody tells me that it's cool to be a cat Cool for- Cool for cats Shape up at the disco when I think I've got a pull I ask her lots of questions as she hangs onto the wall I kiss her for the first time, and then I take her home Invited in for coffee, and I give the dog a bone She say she likes the discos, she's always on her own I said, "I'll see you later," and I give her some old chat But it's not like that on the TV when it's cool for cats It's cool for- Cool for cats (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Very kind Thank you very much Thank you

what is the intro to the song after cool for cats??

Isn't the music in the "Mouth on a stick" bit ", Goodbye Girl, by Squeeze?

Where's the blondie?

Anyone know what version this is? Sounds different to the single version I know.

why at :25 does it start playing "Goodbye Girl"?

Not the same without the two girls though

2true m8 i live ear.

1:35

THAMES

В конце он сказал: "соps! прячь!"?
