This horrible Thames Television show made 'O. T. T' look like 'Russ Abbot's Madhouse'. 'The Kenny Everett Video Cassette' was a mush-up of threadbare sketches, over-the-top musical segments and crude animations. The show was not recorded in front of a studio audience, nor was a canned laughter track used, instead the laughter from the production crew was used. It did the show absolutely no favours at all.
'Video Cassette' seemed not so much a comedy show but more an excuse to showcase musical artists such as Kate Bush, Suzi Quattro, Freddie Mercury, Cliff Richard and Rod Stewart. Billy Connolly also made regular appearances but like I said, this still did nothing to benefit the show. It beggars belief that this show managed to run for four series. Kenny ended the show in 1981 to cross over to the BBC to do 'The Kenny Everett Television Show'.
