Wasnāt there a recent plot line where Ken was āoutedā as the
fan who shouted āJudas!ā At the legendary FH gig?
“I don’t believe you, you’re a liar” as Blanche said
āPlay fuckinā loud, Deirdreā¦..ā

It works though, Ken was quite a lefty in the sixties.
Thatās brilliant – both the blogpost, and the fact that someone on the scriptwriting team (presumably a Dylan fan) has slipped that rumour in not once but twice.
