Ain’t working for Kenneth. Anyone want to explain ? Help a brother out A series of films from the 60s and 70s at their peak called the Carry On series. A star of them was Kenneth Williams, he was also famous for his comedy radio work. He used double entendres liberally and often, as a homosexual they also leaned towards that, but only through implication. His lines drew out any innuendo.

PieFacE Posted July 24 VT Supporter Share Posted July 24 @blandy - This will mean nothing to you but I feel compelled to tell you. For a long time (possibly years?) I've always known I recognised your avatar but couldn't recall what it's from. Today I finally realised it's from a Grinderman album. Which is also an awesome album. That's all 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
