TV trivia: Who played Chandler Bings father on the TV show Friends?
On Thanksgiving when Chandler was nine, his father announced that he was gay and that he was getting a divorce from his wife, because he would “rather sleep with the house-boy than [her].” The house-boy says, “More turkey, Mr. Chandler?” in a very feminine voice right after this announcement. (Charles Bing later moved to Las Vegas where he opened up an all-male burlesque called ‘Viva Las Gaygas,’ featuring such musical numbers as “It’s Raining Men”, where he became a drag queen named Helena Handbasket (played by Kathleen Turner).
