The newly-disvered memoirs reveal much about his one lost love – Tom Proctor, who was killed the Send World War – his later clash wh gay activists at the height of his reer and his plited upbrgg. Grayson was famo for his tch phras that clud ‘what a gay day! Dpe beg very private about his sexualy, he was one of the first televisn edians to suggt an openly gay persona.
“His risqué humour and tchphras remd of a post-gay liberatn moment popular culture durg the 1970s and 1980s where gay humour uld have mastream appeal and a visibly gay man uld succeed at the hight level the world of light entertament, as long as he was prepared to perform his sexual inty ‘for lghs’.

OH WHAT A GAY DAYLARRY GRAYSON LYRICS
* what a gay day shut that door *
What a gay day! Better-known (here the Stat) ntemporari of his Brish gay mp humor, Kenh Williams and Frankie Howerd, were certaly faiar nam to me, though (Williams’s snooty, superr queen was my favore character om the Carry On gang). Not really outrageo mp—no drag, no feather boas, no makp or wigs, as he had done before on the stage—but is the kd of “fx-stealth” 70s gay TV humor that today would enrage humorls gay/P.
Tryg to fd a ntemporary edian here the Stat, to give you an ia of how Grayson operated, the obv choic would be Pl Lyn and Charl Nelson Reilly, the two most proment gay edians of 1970s Amerin televisn.
Signifintly, like Lyn and Reilly, Grayson never off as “weak” his obv-yet-unstated gay orientatn (a goofy, totally off-the-mark charge gay activists make all the time). Intertgly, Grayson gets away wh them (and ed, gets the dience on his si), by projectg, at the same time that he’s suggtg randy wish for gay sex, a disda for the actual physil act self (acrdg to some on the docs, Grayson was celibate real life).
