Graeme Blundell discusses acting with Graham Kennedy in the films Don's Party (1976) and The Odd Angry Shot (1979). He describes some of the antics Kennedy got up to on set and his attitude to film as being superior to television: 'he used to call film acting "travelling first class", compared to television, which he loathed'.

Blundell wrote the book King: The Life and Comedy of Graham Kennedy in 2003. Margaret Leask interviewed Blundell in 2013 for the NFSA’s Oral History program.
