First off in Nine Networks new series on iconic Australians, "The Entertainers", is Graham Kennedy, who has
won more TV WEEK Gold Logies than anyone else, with a whopping seven of the awards to his name.

In the cavalcade of television personalities, a bit like Australia's Hollywood, the name Graham Kennedy shines brightest. He became one of Australia's first big TV stars when he began hosting In Melbourne Tonight in 1957. During the '60s he was a household name and was soon recognised as Australia's King of Comedy, bringing a bawdy, vaudeville style to the small screen.

He's hosted Blankety Blanks, co-presented Coast To Coast with journalist John Mangos and in the early '90s he hosted the popular Graham Kennedy's Funniest Home Video Show.

In recent years, due to failing health he has withdrawn from public life. In 1998 he was inducted into the TV WEEK Logie Hall Of Fame, and his award was accepted on his behalf by his old friend Bert Newton.

Nearly half a century later, he is still called 'The King'. During this special presentation of " The King of Television", you'll get a rare insight in this accomplished performer as he talks about his life. Plus classic Kennedy comedy from IMT, Blankety Blanks, Coast to Coast and the Graham Kennedy Show. There's also skits and sketches from the early black n white footage AND the very first IMT in its entirety.

Graham Kennedy will always be remembered as our first and probably only King of Television. Graham made Australians laugh and now you can relive those classic moments in this special presentation. Enjoy!
