1. Kenny Everett (The UK Radio Hall of Fame).
The success of ‘The Kenny Everett Video Show' and its successors, in which his fascination for what could be done with the fast-changing technologies of television echoed his earlier audio improvisations, meant that until his death in 1995 he divided his energies between both media. By doing so, he reinvented the role of disc jockey as a springboard to broader areas of entertainment. Kenny was diagnosed as HIV Positive in 1989, and died of an AIDS-related illness in 1995.(Submitted on September 18, 2026, by Ian Lefkowitz of New York, New York.)
