The Kenneth Williams Diaries

Product Information

Eating a mince pie saved my life - it led to my breast cancer diagnosis: 39-year-old mother tells how she. The 43 volumes found in Williams's flat on the day he died now belong to his friend and legatee Paul Richardson.

Born Brilliant states, on the subject of Charlie Williams' death, that it was not - as has been long believed - an accident, but a debt- and drug-ridden suicide to allow Kenneth's mother to claim his life insurance.Cook's " One Leg Too Few" and "Interesting Facts" were part of the show and became routines in his own performances.

The full transcripts remain locked away in a vault, with only the editor and Kenneth's trustees being fully aware of what was not chosen for public view.That book is his diaries which he kept from the age of 16, not too diligently at first but more seriously as his life went on, ultimately became a force that governed his actions. The biggest revelation for me was just how cyclical the process of Williams growing disenchanted with absolutely every piece of work he became involved with was.
