The autobiography of Ugly Dave Gray is a memoir of a kaleidoscope of achievements in the entertainment industry. The fact that Ugly Dave Gray is a household name is a testament to the enduring talent.
From humble beginnings in the UK to his meteoric success in television in Australia in the 1960s and 1970s, Ugly Dave Gray changed the landscape of comedic entertainment. After Graham Kennedy left Melbourne Tonight, there was only one man that could take his place and move the show forward, giving the show a new name, after his own. There was only one man in the 1970s that Kennedy could call on to ensure the success of Blankety Blanks. Ugly Dave Gray was a close confidant of Kennedy's, so much so that when Gray wanted to leave Blankety Blanks, Kennedy left as well.
Throughout their lives, Gray and Kennedy remained very close friends.
