In this documentary portrait of Kenneth Williams, who died in 1988, the much-loved comedy actor's diaries are drawn upon to illustrate his life and career.

David Benson, who won acclaim for his one-man show in which he portrayed Kenneth Williams, reads extracts from the diaries, whilst archive clips from such programmes as Round the Horne and Beyond Out Ken show the madcap versatility of Williams the performer.

This Radio Collection version features material additional to the original Radio 4 broadcast.

'What makes this worth listening to...is David Benson's readings from Williams's diaries.' Radio Times
