Kenny Everett's love life is subject of BBC Four biopic The 90-minute drama is said to focus on Kenny Everett's relationship with his wife of 12 years, the singer Audrey Valentine Middleton, known as "Lee." Coronation Street's Katherine Kelly will play the part of his wife in the drama, which also charts his rise to fame and his Sid Snot character. BBC4 controller Richard Klein said: "Kenny Everett was a genuine original: wild and unfocused maybe, but also deliciously anarchic and always entertaining. In many ways Kenny was a very modern celebrity, wearing his heart on his sleeve while coping with a complex life. Re-evaluating this talented and exuberant personality, enabling audiences to reconsider Kenny's undoubted impact and legacy, makes this a very BBC4 drama. Middleton, also a spiritualist known as "Crystal Clear," was still dating singer Billy Fury when she first met Everett. The comic, who died of AIDS-related illness in 1995, remebered his colourful first meeting with Middleton at the home of The Beatles' manager Brian Epstein, in his autobiography. Lee was sitting chatting to Ringo Starr, Klaus Voorman, John Lennon and George Harrison. I, apparently, was just sprawled out on the floor... Billy and Lee were nearing the end of their time together and she and I got quite chummy over the next few months. I'd pack up every weekend and go down to their house where we'd all sit in the sunshine, taking LSD by the bucketful. They were married for 12 years before their divorce in 1979. It was Everett's profound depressions, rather than his homosexuality, that Miller blamed for the breakdown of their marriage. The BBC feature is to be scripted by Tim Whitnall in his TV writing debut.
