Historically, when it comes to Pisces peeps the water sign’s complex personality traits have given the world numerous notable names, and February 22 has been a date with more than its fair share of Born On This Days, among them…
George Washington, Drew Barrymore, Steve Irwin, Connor Storie, Julie Walters, Kyle MacLachlan, John Mills, Christine Keeler, Luis Buñuel, Bruce Forsyth, Sheila Hancock, and Katharine Worsley, the Duchess of Kent who died in 2025. However, one famous face in particular is celebrating his centenary somewhere at that great comedy club in the sky.Â
Kenneth Charles Williams was born in London 100 years ago, in 1926. Yet his record-breaking reign as the most featured ensemble performer in 26 of the 31 Carry On films feels, in many ways, a lifetime away.
Marking Kenny at 100, we celebrate the man who could be so mean he’d probably go next door to gas himself. Still, you’re about to discover a ton of reasons why we’re still remembering this witty razor-sharp raconteur, a word for every year in fact…
