Melbourne Macmillan Australia, 2003 1st. ed. or.cl. d/w. 8vo. pp.486 Graham Kennedy, the King of Comedy, reigned over Australian television for forty years as talk-show host, game-show presenter and iconoclastic jester. He shared the microphone with Nicky Whitta on Melbourne s favourite radio program, Nicky and Graham, in the 1950s, then went on to become the shining light of Australian TV, hosting In Melbourne Tonight, Blankety Blanks and Coast to Coast. Looking for a new challenge, Graham Kennedy moved into films and starred in Don s Party and The Club among others. Graeme Blundell elegantly traces the career of the star from working-class Melbourne, who tilted Australia s television to an unforgettable angle with his disrespectful buffoonery, then mysteriously disappeared into the Southern Highlands of New South Wales. King is also the story of the styles of comedy that Kennedy drew on and made his own in front of the TV cameras, and of local television itself.
