Kenneth Williams: Fantabulosa! (BBC 4 Tuesday 27 June 2023)
Kenneth Williams: Fantabulosa! airs Tuesday 27 June 2023 on BBC 4.
What can we expect from this episode
Drama based on the witty writings of Kenneth Williams’s diaries. The mind of one of the most beloved, odd, and hilarious performers in British radio, TV, and film is revealed in this fascinating look inside his head. One of the saddest events in history.
This biography spans Williams’ entire life and career, providing an intimate look at the man behind the music, as well as a candid and moving glimpse into the professional aspirations, personal disappointments, and sexual frustrations of a man who felt uneasy in his own skin.
The script is crude, witty, self-important, and hilarious. Michael Sheen’s performance as ‘the man of a thousand voices’ is masterful.
Originally broadcast Monday 13 March 2006.
Martin Trenaman plays Tony Hancock, David Charles plays Charles Hawtrey, Beatie Edney plays Joan Sims and Cheryl Campbells Kenneth’s mother Lou.
