Roy Castle, Buddy Rich, Kenny Everett & surprise guest on "Parkinson" '82 (pt.5/7) HQ

This is part five. You REALLY need to watch this COMPLETE SHOW from part one (for PART SIX, hit • Roy Castle, Buddy Rich... ).

[@eugenefarrar1959]

This is just class, and although Buddy and Sammy are first rate, it really has to be said, that Roy was one of the best this country ever produced. A brliant entertainer who always came across as a really nice guy, one of the best and certainly not out of place in that company!

[@matimus100]

Depressing music jazz and seems to fit with alcoholics

[@eugenefarrar1959]

What's remotely depressing about this? Can't you just feel the joy?

[@eugenefarrar1959]

Bloody superb. Tempting to think that Buddy and Sammy steal the show, but what A Star Roy Castle was. One of this country's finest. Seemed like such a really nice guy, boy did we ever need a few more like him!

[@markmaniatt1825]

A wonderful moment in time.Four great characters,much missed!

[@matimus100]

Disagree

[@elliottg.1954]

What a great event and a pleasure to see all these people together. The great Roy Castle could obviously hold his own with the best of them, back when it was all about talent and not just politics.

[@paulfletcher3454]

There is Roy Castle (RIP) doing his tap dancing thing and out walks, his hero, one of the greatest tap dancers ever, Sammy Davis Jr. Superb.

[@pentuplove6542]

Buddy is also Roy's hero. He said "I would have swept the floor just to be here to see Buddy Rich."

[@pentuplove6542]

Sammy Davis Jnr great man and entertainer surprises his best friend Buddy Rich.

[@eugenefarrar1959]

Make no mistake, Roy was there on merit. One of our finest talents.

[@garrywood8836]

They should show this episode at schools across the UK purely as an example how some very talented and interesting stars have total respect for their fellow entertainers. One of which is none other than the most talented people that ever lived Sammy Davis junior.😎

[@eugenefarrar1959]

Garry Wood Agreed. These guys made it the hard way too. Kenny was a real problem on this too. Played his part and didn't overcook it.

[@eugenefarrar1959]

Mean to say a real pro. Bloody predictive text.

[@josephdaly3327]

I think you meant to say "Meant to say", not mean to. Bloody predictive tent....oops, er.... unpredictive tent....no that's a teenage problem. Sod it, beak me up Scotty.... and RIP Parky!!

[@badger774]

[@RacManRhythm]

What a guest lineup, Rich, Davis Jnr, Castle & Everett, you just don't get that kinda talent these days.

[@That_Random_Bloke]

Brilliant, brilliant video. Thanks for uploading!

[@lesgeorge9166]

So much talent on one show

[@aaronreeves8376]

Did not see all that coming!! Great show!

[@salvadormarley]

How fucking brilliant is that ending folks?

[@matimus100]

Disgraceful language your reported

[@salvadormarley]

@@matimus100 Thank you. Who did you report me to? Don't tell my dad, he'll ground me.

[@resultsofchange]

@@matimus100 get off the internet grandma!

[@danielguy1963]

Fun times! Great Talent!

[@alanwitton5039]

What a fantastic lineup! Such great talent

[@filippofontana8248]

What amount of talent was collected together!

[@rotonda4068]

And now they give us The Chase Celebrity Special on Saturday nights.

[@jamesheath7601]

Best drummer ever

[@paulpeartsmith]

Brilliant!

[@alanwitton5980]

Fantastic

[@gregorychants]

I watched this as a 15 year old. What a sobering thought that now I'm older than Sammy was then...

[@keithatkins4033]

Roy Castle showing off as he often did

[@MINIMOTOMADNESS]

epic tv moment.i miss kenny so much,

[@clivem24]

Wen Saturday night entertainment was something!

[@brianlove8353]

Those were the days

[@Braglemaster123]

Too cool

[@matimus100]

Garbage

[@pauljannone123]

Now that's what i call entertainment!

[@eugenefarrar1959]

GOLD!

[@matimus100]

Stamping on a head! and hate pure garbage

[@user-ty2oe8jb9q]

1:36 Imagine never having heard western music before; and the first thing you experience is Buddy Rich's big band?

[@davegadge1]

Sammy Davis is the coolest M F ever!

[@davidwrightatloppers]

@TheKenfig True - and Sir Mike is now 76...

[@prp3231]

Talent draining away from the world, right before our eyes. Left with Robbie, Adele, sheeran...then we had the covid outbreak and now war in the Ukraine.

[@jameslong3509]

With Michael Parkinson's death in August 2023, all five men have now gone. End of an era. Buddy Rich 1917-1987, Sammy Davis Jr 1925-1990, Roy Castle 1932-1994, Kenny Everett 1944-1995 and Michael Parkinson 1935-2023.

[@nickturner5943]

Wow 💪

[@1alsturgeon]

Poor Kenny wasn't a part of the good ol' boys club here was he. I'd of had him dressed as one of his characters from his show lol.

[@davidpascoe6161]

He was the first guest on the show but did his interview as Cupid Stunt. He changed back into “civvies” during Buddy Rich’s musical number. The Cupid Stunt interview is on KZbin.

[@kennethhodges3187]

What a marvellous combination of talent. Kenny Everett looked out of his depth though which is hardly surprising when in the company of such legends! Nice to have these programmes, but why scatter them when they can all be put out in one complete programme!

[@hobes9]

what song was that? for when he was playing on the change?

[@gs032009]

Hello Is Buddy Rich in part one of this show???

[@homeone4054]

Heaven knows what he would think of country music thesedays

[@robsco1249]

What Is the show where he talks about Ian Paice? Any video? Thank you.

[@barttheanorak]

@TheKenfig That's what I was just thinking.

[@eugenefarrar1959]

Beat that!

[@matimus100]

Like an egg

[@Morgan_Bush]

Roy Castle once went ballistic when a club refused Sammy Davis Jr. entry due to the colour of his skin.

[@KennethRose-st2sk]

Sammy was the coolest of the rai pack

[@bobbowlby1787]

Without the hairpiece too!

[@davidwrightatloppers]

Bob Bowlby I was a life-long fan of Buddy - loved everything about him - except those DAMNED rugs!

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

davidwrightatloppers What kind of rugs were they : Top quality Persian rugs??

[@paulherlihy9290]

God, all dead now! Once upon a time as musical talent past, there would be new faces to take their place. I'm not so sure that's the case anymore.

[@Aouxiz]

What did Kenny do to Lionel Blair???

[@semajttam]

On his Video show he had this thing called "Star Quiz" where various celebs (on this occasion Michael Aspel) sat under a tube of gunge and attempted to play a ni-on impossible quiz. Interdispersed between Aspels questions, it cut away to Blair saying how the shows rigged and alludes Aspel will "get away with it". Aspel doesn't and Lionel, cheering the loss, also gets gunged at the end.

[@jasonmcdonnell8546]

poor kenny

[@davegadge1]

They don’t make tv like this anymore is a cliche but it’s true because there’s little talent!

[@jimmyuk007]

All dead RIP

[@matimus100]

Not all Christians your wrong

[@vova47]

Love Buddy, hate tap dancing!

[@matimus100]

Utter nonsense comment
