Kel Knight is a fictional character in the Australian television show Kath & Kim.
Kel is played by comic actor Glenn Robbins and comes across as an honest, respectable, reliable man who finds out he has many talents throughout the episodes. Kel Knight is a gourmet butcher and is married to Kath Day-Knight, played by Jane Turner. One of many Kel's interests are books (just like Kath) but seems to have a soft spot for Australian author Bryce Courtenay.This is evident in many episodes for example in episode 3 he is reading 'The Power of One' at a butchers convention(failing to make communication with the other butchers, thus pulls out his book). In episode 4, he references the author twice.Kath is reading the 'Anti Candida' diet book, and Kel mentions the author Bryce Courtenay, although Bryce didn't actually write the book(far from his genre).Later on, Kel complains of Kath participating in the musical 'The Hours' (Kath recommends he joins the play, in which he does, this was due to the fact that they had busy schedules, looking for some time to spend together).Kath explains to Kel that it was a book/movie adaptation in which Kel responds 'That was that Bryce Courtenay book,wasn't it?' However Bryce did not write this book either.
