The interviewer is by far the best I have seen! She masterfully changes subjects so naturally and REALLY LISTENS to the subject. This is one of the best interviews I have seen with Kenneth Williams.

Thanks for posting this wonderful interview, the first part as much as this. I absolutely adore him. Anyone who has read the diaries will know what a sharp mind he had but to see him here in full flow is mesmerising. And as for being unhappy with his looks - I wish I could have told him he is absolutely beautiful. Look at him here: 1974, 48 years old, and long before botox too. Lovely in every way.

aldridga611 You have a lovely kind heart my friend.I agree with you 100 % Kenneth had it all the looks the charm the sense of humour...the quick wit...and he lived his life the way he wanted to quiet and he had every right to have what ever he wanted in life including loving who ever he wanted to love even a pink elephant with two heads....he should have been knighted by her Majesty and I hope he was. My dream was to meet this lovely Man...unfortunately I am disabled..and not in a financial position at the moment to go to London to see the Queen and all the hollabarloo as I call all the famous people...but I do have a Telegram in my possession...that I bid for and paid quite a price...I just had to have it and he has signed it its Kenneth saying I am sorry I can't attend the party..on Saturday night but will still meet up for drinks on Friday at some Pub he names I am so happy I have it xx

Despite your comment being 12yrs old, I feel compelled to say that there is no such word as 'interspection'. The word you mean is 'INTROSPECTION' ! A small error some might say, but never the less it is important to use the correct word, as it erodes your credibility and renders your comment irredeemably stupid.

It's really interesting to see the great KW speaking at normal speed rather than the 500mph he often did. Perhaps he was more relaxed here, or he hadn't quite got to the point where he felt he had to behave like a caricature of himself, as he did so often on TV towards the end of his sadly short life.
