Kenneth Williams
Kenneth Williams(1926 ~ 1988)
Kenneth Williams was born in London, England. He was known as a famous British
comedian who mostly contributed his life for
Carry On films but it has not been well-known with what he contributed in Just A Minute,
BBC panel show. As a writer
of this website, I'd like to share this with anyone who may be interested in him and his
contribution in this show.
Kenneth Williams in Just A Minute
As I mentioned on my main page, Just A Minute has three kinds of rules and this
rule is very simple and delightful. In case of Kenneth Williams, when he really
keeps going for 60 seconds, he often dragged his speech to spend more times and
usually made funny voice which he often employed in his Carry On films. Kenneth
Williams story in Just A Minute was mostly picked out from his own knowledge based
on English literature he loved, such as Shakespear's works. Sometimes, Kenneth
often blamed other panelists when they challenge with indecent manner. He was
rather obedient to the chairman, Nicholas Parsons decisions in Just A Minute and
often protect the chairman from other players dispute on final judgement. Kenneth
Williams often used the phrase, of course and sometimes also used
the word, well which is Peter Jones idiosyncrasy. That cause other
players to challenge with repetition and also he usually used the expression,
disgraceful!!, Great fool!, Great nit! to anyone who
challenges or disputes with indecent manner.
