MJD here...just watching this on tv and found it on You Tube Go to 25 secs to 30 secs and cuddly Ken pies someone who looks a bit like Sarah Kennedy ....prob late 1970's. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4t2Bp4jhTaQ
That pieing is originally taken from a programme he did for LWT in the mid 70s called 'Ev'.
About 18 months ago, I went to a Kenny Everett retrospective at the British Film Institute on the South Bank and they showed that episode. There are a couple of other female pieings that go with it - I didn't know that was in the show before I went so it was a brilliant/awkward surprise! Hopefully a copy is out there in private hands somewhere.
I will always associate Jessie with Kenny Everett now as when I did my session with her, he was the correct answer to my first question, earning her a pie in the face
Cool....he was a legend. Those BFI days are great...too a few stars to them over the years....prob the best was Tony Curtis. Do you reckon that is Sarah Kennedy in the phone box. I have a mate I'll ask about the BFI copy and see if it can be borrowed.

Hmmm, hard to tell, I'll have to pass on that - I suspect they were LWT staff from the old Wembley Studios.
I usually find out about those BFI things too late but managed to get to a good one about the Sweeney as well, with a couple of the old cars parked outside.
The one I can't find is from a show called OTT, a Tarrant late night version of Tiswas. At the tender age of 9 I had my first TV in my room and remember a girl bringing a note to Tarrant in a bikini, a bath of custard was pushed on to stage behind her, and at this point my parents ran upstairs and turned the telly off. There were only 3 channels in those days and I guess they were watching the same show as me!!
I love all your amazing work btw, you are simply incredible! xx
It's not MJ (Messy Jessie) . It's MJD her pal as Jessie is in hospital as per the Health Updates in Off Topic. Thanks for the nice comments about Jess though. Jess was only born in 1981 to Tiswas and OTT were before her time but I remember all those first time round!
Love you, too
