Keith Harris - A Tribute - Eyes & Teeth The Specials - Season 16, Episode 4, Part 1
Description
Keith Harris was one of the most successful ventriloquists in Great Britain's show business history.
With record sold out summer seasons at Blackpool's Grand Theatre and pantomimes Keith's Saturday Night TV Show was watched by millions of families in the 1980's and after Orville's Song written by Bobby Crush was released in 1982 it shot Orville into many hearts of children and adults selling a whopping 400.000 copies.
Keith worked through the declining decade of variety into the 1990's and then re invented himself for a new audience in Universities and Top Holiday centres across the UK. With his new adult show 'Duck Off' Keith enjoyed booking through popular demand and even worked top tv shows starring alongside Harry Hill, Little Britain's Matt & David, Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Peter Kay and Ricky Gervais.
I also talk about my connection with Keith and our time meeting and working together on my first nationwide TV show in 1993.
He was a legend until the end, but the end came way too soon.
