Graham Kennedy and Others Revealed

Henry Gay shares a few of the letters Graham Kennedy wrote to him during their 50 year friendship.

It began in 1951 but, as so much has been written about the King of Australian Television , Henry decided to reveal a few odd things about other people who crossed his path and a little bit of history about working in radio when it was called wireless.

Graham Kennedy…if you live outside of Australia you may never have heard of him….to Australians in the pioneering days of Television in the mid to late 50’s Graham was an absolute legend.

I once was in the studio audience of a leading Melbourne Television station….Graham was hosting his “In Melbourne Tonight” a top rated live variety show….he worked both the studio audience and those out there in television land at the same time.

His blue eyes sparkled……much of his patter was unscripted…he did the unexpected and his audience loved it all. Graham kept out of the public eye in his private life….of course as he did not marry this led to all sorts of rumors, and now a person who knew Graham very well Henry Gay has released this fascinating look into Grahams’ innermost thoughts.

I know Henry personally and he has been working on this book for many years…..it is well worth reading and perhaps THE only genuine account of Graham Kennedy every put to paper.
Henry Gay is an accomplished author…He also writes plays and for many years was also in the Melbourne Radio / Television Industry.

The show started with the catch cry “and now, Here’s Graham” and within minutes we knew what sort of night we were in for.

Graham in a lot of ways was an open book.  If he had that cheeky grin happening then we knew we were in for a night to remember,
