At last justice has been done. Has is really reached such a stage that a guy can't even have a luxury house in the phillipines stacked full of children's videos without people automatically thinking the worst? I for one will be looking forward to his next Stars in their Eyes children's special.

Trial by media. It's a disgrace. He's a happily married man with two grown-up kids for fuck's sake! So what if he's a bit camp. It never did Kenneth Williams any harm, did it? And anyway, these accusations happened about 30 years ago. Everyone did crazy things back then. It was the 70's!! Come on, remember the clothes and the zany hairstyles?

Well, Kenneth Williams spent most of his life torturing himself with self-loathing--so I'd say campness did him a lot of harm.

And I thought this thread would be about a new solo Matthew Kelly record...
Kenneth Williams was a prototype for unfunny Julian Clarey/Graham Norton type camp comedians. Not very funny at all.

Kenneth Williams was a hell of a lot more than a cheap forerunner to Clarey and Norton.

He was better, but still unfunny in my opinion. It was his only gimmick- double entendres and campness...

That wasn't the real Kenneth Williams. He was an EXTREMELY intelligent, well-read, philosophical person, and a great stage actor, who was unfortunately railroaded into a pigeonhole.

Railroaded into a pigeon-hole???!!!!????? What a fucking mixed metaphor that is. I think I understand what you are getting at, though. He was his own worst enemy was poor kenneth.

Bit like Michael Caine? Very good actor, but he got stuck in the same role after the Harry Palmer films...
Christopher Lee would be another good example. I thought he was just some B-movie actor from Hammer Horror until I saw him in interview.

You ever saw the Wicker man with Christopher Lee? Scariest fucking film I have ever seen in my life.

Yes, I just got it on DVD (£8 for 2 dvd version including directors cut at play.com- bargain).
That was the interview I saw.
Brilliant film with a superb soundtrack.

We saw the same thing with Roger Moore. He was never really afforded the opportunity to show his full range and will forever be, James Bond 007.
