Fantabulosa! The Kenneth Williams Story (2006) - Martin Sheen, Cheryl Campbell, Peter Wight, Beatie Edney,

BBC television play. "This was effectively a 24-carat performance of the sort for which those base-metal acting gongs aren't ever quite good enough." (The Guardian) Nonetheless, Martin Sheen won the 2006 Royal Television Society best actor award for his heart-breaking portrayal of Kenneth Williams, a consummate entertainer who was loved by everyone but himself. From the intimacy of his diaries and other sources, Martyn Hesford's Fantabulosa! creates a portrait of a fastidious performer who hankered after recognition, adulation and companionship throughout his career. Yet although he could create a thousand voices and characters, he was unable to live comfortably within his own skin.
