Like quality healthcare, justice is for those who can afford to buy it! Additionally, if the case hasn't been solved in 26 years, it probably never will be! The Police are USELESS!
like in 🇺🇸 , in 🇬🇧 too you need a lobby to ppl ( friends relatives whatever ) to 🦵 kick the justice system in the butt to get aany serious investigation going.Sadly 🇬🇧 stopped being the 🇬🇧 of Professional detectives found in the likes of Inspector Morse & ya da .... everything there work's with social force & influence.... & that IMHO comes from 🇬🇧 offering up itself as an attractive dumping ground for other counties ill gotten gains. Who knows if this #JeremyBrown murdered trends the yard may decide to open the cold case files
Mind your language was all Barry Evans. His portrayal was unassuming, kind and very down to earth. I will never stop watching this show as this serves as the perfect antidote for all my travails in life. R.I.P Mr Evans and all the supporting cast who made Mind your language a class of it's own.
@@FactsVerseUKi won't really like to classify any one episode as my favourite. All the three seasons and the respective episodes were equally wonderful. Thanks again for a perfect homage to the wonderful Barry Evans.
He was a wonderful actor who exuded warmth and kindness and, of course, he was a total heart throb. I have to admit that I knew nothing of his later life. That was often the way with sitcom stars, they`d disappear only to reappear( or not) several years later, usually after attempting theater or other related roles. Barry disappeared from our screens but his smiling face will be part of the memories I carry to my own demise. It`s so sad to discover that he had such a sad end, he deserved a longer and much, much happier life and career. R.I.P
I met him a few times he lived near me He was friendly and quite shy and had a dry humour he was working as a taxi driver and was unable to get acting work on tv after years on the telly
Barry Evan deserves justice. This case should be reopened. He was a great actor. His genuine emotions has created a strong bond with ordinary people ❤️ It is rare to find a person this much nice as him.
True. Wonderfull words Yes, he deserves justice . But it's already 27 years, I guess ago ... who knows if that happens one day. I hope so . Mind your language was great, wonderful, lovely .
@@user-sangsangd1v Let's keep faith in the investigation team. Now we have smarter people and technologies have also developed a lot. I still think It's possible for Barry Evan to get justice 🥺🌺
The original story was that Barry Evans was abandoned as a baby and *nothing* is known about his family. If Barry was still alive today, he could have had a DNA test to find his closest relatives. He became famous and a heartthrob with his role as Michael Upton in _Doctor In The House._ His youthful looks meant he was often typecast which depressed him. RIP Barry Evans. 🙏🏻
I've often wondered when his parents used to watch him on television, did they know that he was the son they had abandoned? Barry must have resembled one of his parents so there's a good chance that they must have known who he was.
@@georgfriedrichhandel4390 I'm pretty certain he was mixed race (maybe Bengali or Burmese) based on his similar complexion to celebs like Jamie Cullum, Richard Beckinsale, Cliff Richard and Engelbert Humperdinck who all have South/Southeast Asian blood. I don't know how many mixed Anglo-Asian babies were abandoned in Guildford during World War II but if his mother ever read about him later I suspect she might have guessed.
@@kaysmith8992 Barry didn't look like he was of mixed race so that's an interesting theory but not probable. Since we don't know who his parents are and in all likelihood they are deceased now, we'll never know why they abandoned their child but considering that Barry was born in 1943 in the middle of WWII, it's possible due to rationing that his parents simply didn't have the wherewithal to raise him which is why they made the fateful decision they did.
A great actor the world forgot and turned its back on. This is a cruel, hard and ruthless world we are living in people. Make the most of every moment of happiness and joy and god bless!!!
It's the nature of Barry Evans' profession. Unless they're Michael Caine, actors never know when their next job will be. Even at the height of his popularity, there were times when Barry had to receive public assistance because he had been out of work for so long. It's a very unstable industry and you're only as good as your last job.
Absolutely love him! I didn't know he died so young when I first started watching Mind Your Language. His natural acting and sweet smile instantly got me hooked to the show. Not to mention set of talented actors who joined his class. ♥♥ Halfway through the show when I learned through the wiki what happened to him. It's awfully sad when a talented artist meets such tragic end. They should re-open his case and launch a thorough investigation to find out who murdered him. The least they can do for the man to honor his legacy!
he has a heavenly sweet smile and an affectionate warm heart, right? when first sae him in MYL, didn't find him that attractive, just an average teacher.But as i went deeper and deeper watching more his caring, loving anf affectionate warmth towards his students, I completely melt for him. Then, me, like you, started to look for him and found out he was murdeeed and died so young, I felt like vompletely breaking down. like his other fans.
I thought he was the cutest guy I had ever seen. I was madly in love with him when Iwas a teenager. Was so sad to hear about his unfortunate death. 😢😞💔
I'm really sad to hear the story about 'Mr. Brown'. He was my favorite actor because I used to be a teacher. I know how difficult it was to be a teacher. RIP Mr. Barry Evans.😢
I am a diehard fan of late Barry Evans since my teens! He was a superb comedian in the British serial Mind Your Language! For nothing in the world would I miss a single episode, such was the craze at that time ! So sad to take cognizance of his demise in those particular circumstances! RIP PROFESSOR!
I am absolutely in love with Mr.Brown.I have seen this sitcom so many times.All the characters of this series is awesome and seems they are all so real and spontaneous in their roles ❤
we know him as mr. Brown , being an ESL teacher his role helped me to be calm lovin' and well tolerant towards students,love his sweet personality.God bless his soul 🙏 amen.
No words to describe about Mr Brown 😢. He is such a great actor. I can't believe how can people so cruel about him 😢. Wi miss you Mr Brown , you will always be our English teacher
This is so sad and horrible! He died 3 years before I was born. I just recently discovered him and I don’t have an idea that he was dead, and to his story. I love his character in “Mind Your Language” and even the other actors and actresses in that sit-com. I personally think that it’s a great show to watch specially when you are having hard time, and then suddenly I watched this 😢.
I know he had depression but I don't understand why he would ask a friend to call him back just to cut his phoneline himself if he was going to commit suicide later. The obviously planted aspirin, the stolen items, the disconnected phoneline and lastly, the head injury all lead me to believe it was a murder. There were no sign of struggle so either he knew the perp or he was ambushed or maybe even both. The only thorn here is the written will but if the thief found his will while they were robbing his home, that'll give them the perfect cover up to murder him which is why I think the aspirin is the most important clue here. If Barry died of alcohol poisoning or even suicide, how and why would he have the aspirin spilt near him? I say the thief probably didn't know he'd been drinking a lot and planted it there along with the will to stage a suicide.
certain forensics were not available then that could have connected the suspect to the crime scene. no swabs taken so no evidence. I think there are many crimes like this which go unsolved and the only reason we know about this one is because the murdered man was famous.
No need to make think pieces bro he was murdered by the industry. Dont you see how organized and smart it sounds? The police didnt even try to reopen the case and they began cremating the body immediately.
Usually, alcohol poisoning happens to people that either do not usually drink (I have heard repeatedly that he was an alcoholic, but that would be too difficult since he had to earn a living as a cab driver) or consumed alcoholic drink laced with 100% pure alcohol. Another possibility would be he was fed the alcohol - at least the excessive amount, though alcohol poisoning cannot stand since it's not the sole finding. Aspirin was a stupid additiobn by the perp, since no such substance was found in his system. it's areal wonder how the authorities let out so many contrtadicting evidence, and then ignore them altogether.
It’s entirely possible the aspirin weee there because he’s had a headache. As they weren’t used they may just be a red herring. But the blow to the head makes it murder. Presumably the man held ‘did it’ but was able to provide an alibi and with no real forensics in those days I suppose the police couldn’t charge him.
I loved Barry as a child watching 'Mind Your Language'...(and the whole cast)..thought it was very funny...it's so sad to know what happened to him and how from being fairly successful to going so downhill and ultimately then being murdered!...it's just so trajic and as shown by this download very dearly missed by many people..😟...
Many of my friends went to Medical school just because they used to watch Dr in the House in their teens it was a great show with Barry Evans, Robin Nedwell , Geoffrey Davies and the rest of the guys ie Richard O’Sullivan later in the show. RIP
in India he is very well known for his television show Mind your language. I even watch it now since I had last watched it when I was a child. Sad to know this is how his life has to end.😢
To my grave I will take you with me my Beloved Mr Brown Im sure many around the world feel the same,my son and me watch Mind Your Language almost everday ,it takes away so much of pain, your loss cannot be expressed,you gave us so much,you are loved greatly and missed beyond measure In this Christmas Season,I will play a Carol for you,greatly loved from India!!🙏🙏
It was London Weekend Television, not London Network Television which does not exist. This was the the franchise of ITV that looked after the London area from Friday evening to Sunday night. I only know that because i live in the area. All i know is that he was hilarious in mind your language. Is sorely missed.
Im glad someone shed light on his life and death. He was murdered but was fialed by the law. Its so sad. I wish he gets justice and gets ri rest in peace ASAP
Was a fan, Mind Your Language was my childhood. He had such charisma... its a shame he couldn't get roles after, I feel like he would've made a good Doctor Who.
Glad to come across this content because I was and still am a big fan of Barry Evans. Really sad such a good and humble man died such a violent death and worse in a robbery. That 18 y.o. certaintly had something to do with the murder. The case should be reopened and investigated using modern technology.
Barry died in February, 1997 but the inquest into his death was conducted more than a year later. I find that very bizarre. Why did it take so long to do the inquest? If it had been done shortly after Barry died, it's just possible that the cause of death would have been determined. If anyone knows why it took so long to do an inquest, please let us know.
I think that inquests can take a long time, Someone I knew died about six months ago and it has gone to an inquest but we are still waiting to hear results, I live in Scotland but I wouldn't think the system will be very different. Presumably all sorts of specialist investigation has to be done and that will take time.
@@evelynwilson1566 In the UK maybe but in the United States an autopsy is performed as soon as the person has died and they only take a few hours including the toxicology reports and whatever else is needed. Granted, I'm not an expert but I would imagine that if you wait too long and decomposition sets in, it makes it harder to determine cause of death. Therefore, I don't understand why an inquest should take so long.
@@hedgemist691Thanks for that information but it still begs the question; why did it take so long to do the inquest? After so much time, valuable evidence would have been lost.
Barry was born in 1943 a year before I was born, I am now 80 and feel very sad to know how young he passed away, to me he will always be Mr Brown from mind your own language, his death is a mystery what was the real truth it should have had far more investigation bad police work, he remains in my heart as one of the best comedy actors he seemed so kind and gentle he could have still been alive today, some say he had a wife some say he was a loner, and is there really a son somewhere, so many mysteries still surround this wonderful actor in my heart you are not forgotten Barry Evans.
I'm a 2nd language student in 90s and 91. It's so impressed how he act. I love him. It's show all my experience when I were studied. My teacher were Joansa and Sally at uxbridge college in uxbridge. we were School outing, chrismas party and Joanna's home party and so much memories.
He was a great actor and good looking too. What a sad life he had in reality. Thanks for the video. I had heard he had committed suicide. But this puts a fresh take on it. It's interesting even today to watch the Mind Your Language series which I enjoyed in childhood! Good looking star too. Had much promise as an actor.
What a sad ending to mr. Brown. He is one of my favourite actors. I like him since mind your language. Why would somebody kill him, he was a nice person😢.
Loved his work in “Doctor in the House”, which also aired here in the U.S. in the late 1970’s. Hilarious cast. Those British comedies were “Brilliant!”, as our English friends like to say! 😂
I was in love with Michael Upton[ Barry Evans ] in Doctor In The House and then Mind Your Language'..loved both shows, so sad that he had to die like that, sounds like a murder to me, so tragic that they didn't look into it further. rest Peacefully Barry Evans
Daniel Ward must be sick to death of me asking about the book on Twitter but I really can't wait to read it. I hope I'm not disappointed after the wait...
@@Irene-qe5hu he's been writing a biography of Barry Evans. I've been hearing about it since 2020 but apparently due to publishing issues it keeps getting delayed.
Still don't understand why a murder investigation never occured when Barry Evans was discovered in his house with head injuries and his taxi had been stolen? 🤔
You'd be surprised at how selective the police🎉 can be about what to look into and why. Its less common than you'd think for them to look the other way.
Police were busy persecuting citizens for "wrong" thinking. Typical in Britain..no police doing real police work. That's exactly why I left that shithkle that is the toilet of the world nowadays.
It truly is a sad end to a wonderful personality who was loved globally.Scotland Yard should open his case and find those responsible as he was a kind and beloved personality who deserved better.May God May justice be served and God Rest his soul.🎉
He was a brilliant actor. I enjoyed all his roles. His death is a murder mystery that's never been solved. It's still an open verdict. I hope he gets the justice he deserves. RIP.
I discovered this talented actor in the sitcom Mind your language and I love this actor👏👏👏👏. Jeremy was a unique character of Mind your language , of course not only Mr. Brown
Totally wrong Britain was a lot dirtier then. Pollution was terrible all the buildings in cities were stained black ,raw sewage was pumped straight into rivers. If you don’t believe me watch some of the British films made at the time and see how clean Britain was. I was still playing on bomb sites .People didn’t walk there dogs, they just let them out in the morning and back in at night.There was dog muck everywhere.
@@fromtheflightdeck252And the foreigners They are looking for revenge! I am more than sure those !nf!de|s are here to take back this country our ancestors build for ages! Why is our leader a non Christian brown man? Why are the muslims demanding Sharia laws? And why are we a minority in London? Think about it!
Yes I was fan of his. In India we never got news of their lives. Now thanks to you tube I can see the old episodes over and over again. Very sad to know about their life and death.
He was amazing actor. I was not born when the "Mind Your Language" show was on air. I watch all seasons on RUclips. I like Berry Evan's acting skills. All actors are good, and their performances are excellent.
Absolutely! We feel the same way. Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
RUclips suggested me some mind your language shorts and I started watching them. I loved this actor very much. Just researched about him and I found this video. Very very sad 😢
Acting is quite tough carrier to pursue and a lot depends upon luck there...still Barry was a remarkable actor but if he never did any project other than mind your language, that show alone is enough to keep him alive on screen forever🌹
I had no idea this very talented man had such a very sad beginning and a terrible end, I have always enjoyed him in Mind Your Language, as he did no family there was no effort into finding out how he died of if there was anyone involved with his death, I hope someone cares enough to reopen his case he certainly deserves justice.R.I.P. Mr Brown ,as he will always be remembered as.
Im not even born at that time but came across his show in the shotz accidental. But in absolute love with it. Missing his charisma n sweetness. So sad for him rip
I loved watching him in the 'Doctor' series' he was a total heart throb, it's such a shame that actors fall out of favour with TV companies, especially based on looks. RIP Barry :(
Thank you for making this video. I dont believe he killed himself, everything prior screams foul play. If it was proven no medication was found in his system how can it be suicide? He was clearly robbed and murdered. We all know uk police dont like hardwork when it comes to murders, you just have to research how they dealt with the Yorkshire Ripper and the Wests. I pray he knows now just how loved he still is, how he left us fans with a lasting smile from the joy of watching his wonderful acting. ❤️
He was murdered but by the industry. You think a robbery and the perpetrators would be ignored if they were really random peasants? We all know it dont work like that.
@@taftybufty Why? What would be their gain? And so many years after he was washed out by the industry itself, they should consider him a burnout. God knows he never bothered anyone through the media of the time... why do this to him? and in such an insulting and painful way?
I think there was a lot more to his death if i remember correctly - the clue being in the 18 year old guy leaving his house at 3 am - However if dragging all that up again isnt going to have the mystery of his death solved there is no point in doing so - Having said that things have moved on as far as detective work is concerned maybe the case should be looked into again and get Barry the justice he deserves - R.I.P.
Iways have been a big fan of Mr Brown . He was my role model in teaching English. Although my students managed a few times to release the Miss Courtney hidden inside 🤦🏻♀.
He died young and too soon. I think he drank too much that night and someone took advantage of it and hit him on the head. I remember him well. Very sad.
Whenever i enjoy a show or movie, i like to look at the cast of the shows or movies, when i look at his death, it was very sad and shocking to me how he died. He looks so innocent. 😓😢
He must have been so disillusioned getting his first break in 1968 until his last success in mind your language in 1986 by the 1990s he was probably not just disillusioned with his career but also the way he perceived the world
Accidentally I "discover" MYL on you tube a couple of weeks ago and immediately I read the tragic death of this wonderful man. Unfortunately in Italy he isn't known but I want to know more more and more about him. I want to see everything I can find. Anyway I think that after 26 years, it would be easier to know the truth today. This cold case must absolutely be reopened.
This cold case of possible murder needs re-opening. He deserves justice.
Like quality healthcare, justice is for those who can afford to buy it!
Additionally, if the case hasn't been solved in 26 years, it probably never will be!
The Police are USELESS!

Hmm why not. Like Tupac

RIP Barry...you will be forever remembered.🙏🙏
Rest in peace, Mr. Barry. I enjoyed your films
Im glad someone shed light on his life and death. He was murdered but was fialed by the law. Its so sad. I wish he gets justice and gets ri rest in peace ASAP
Was a fan, Mind Your Language was my childhood. He had such charisma... its a shame he couldn't get roles after, I feel like he would've made a good Doctor Who.
Glad to come across this content because I was and still am a big fan of Barry Evans. Really sad such a good and humble man died such a violent death and worse in a robbery. That 18 y.o. certaintly had something to do with the murder. The case should be reopened and investigated using modern technology.
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse UK?
@@FactsVerseUK we need more unsung hero stories
One of my all time favorites.
Hom and John Ritter my two comedy actors.
he was a great actor and he deserved a much better life but it was his hard luck that ended him too soon!!! RIP
Reopen his case. Give justice to this loving heart.
Barry died in February, 1997 but the inquest into his death was conducted more than a year later. I find that very bizarre. Why did it take so long to do the inquest? If it had been done shortly after Barry died, it's just possible that the cause of death would have been determined. If anyone knows why it took so long to do an inquest, please let us know.
I think that inquests can take a long time, Someone I knew died about six months ago and it has gone to an inquest but we are still waiting to hear results, I live in Scotland but I wouldn't think the system will be very different. Presumably all sorts of specialist investigation has to be done and that will take time.
@@evelynwilson1566 In the UK maybe but in the United States an autopsy is performed as soon as the person has died and they only take a few hours including the toxicology reports and whatever else is needed. Granted, I'm not an expert but I would imagine that if you wait too long and decomposition sets in, it makes it harder to determine cause of death. Therefore, I don't understand why an inquest should take so long.
An inquest is an investigation an autopsy is cause of death
@@georgfriedrichhandel4390 An autopsy is performed to determine whether an inquest should take place. They are not the same thing.
@@hedgemist691Thanks for that information but it still begs the question; why did it take so long to do the inquest? After so much time, valuable evidence would have been lost.
Barry was born in 1943 a year before I was born, I am now 80 and feel very sad to know how young he passed away, to me he will always be Mr Brown from mind your own language, his death is a mystery what was the real truth it should have had far more investigation bad police work, he remains in my heart as one of the best comedy actors he seemed so kind and gentle he could have still been alive today, some say he had a wife some say he was a loner, and is there really a son somewhere, so many mysteries still surround this wonderful actor in my heart you are not forgotten Barry Evans.
I'm a 2nd language student in 90s and 91. It's so impressed how he act. I love him. It's show all my experience when I were studied. My teacher were Joansa and Sally at uxbridge college in uxbridge. we were School outing, chrismas party and Joanna's home party and so much memories.
He’s a Legend-Mind your Language was Amazing ✨
One of my favorites
He was a great actor and good looking too. What a sad life he had in reality. Thanks for the video. I had heard he had committed suicide. But this puts a fresh take on it. It's interesting even today to watch the Mind Your Language series which I enjoyed in childhood! Good looking star too. Had much promise as an actor.
He is missed
May God rest him in eternal peace 🙏
What a sad ending to mr. Brown. He is one of my favourite actors. I like him since mind your language. Why would somebody kill him, he was a nice person😢.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
Loved his work in “Doctor in the House”, which also aired here in the U.S. in the late 1970’s. Hilarious cast. Those British comedies were “Brilliant!”, as our English friends like to say! 😂
I was in love with Michael Upton[ Barry Evans ] in Doctor In The House and then Mind Your Language'..loved both shows, so sad that he had to die like that, sounds like a murder to me, so tragic that they didn't look into it further. rest Peacefully Barry Evans
Yes Daniel ward is writing a book. Still so so very very sad no matter what we know or how many times we hear it!!
Daniel Ward must be sick to death of me asking about the book on Twitter but I really can't wait to read it. I hope I'm not disappointed after the wait...
@@kaysmith8992 Who is Daniel Ward ?
@@Irene-qe5hu he's been writing a biography of Barry Evans. I've been hearing about it since 2020 but apparently due to publishing issues it keeps getting delayed.
@@kaysmith8992 have you read the book Kay?
@@kaysmith8992 whats his username on Twitter?
Still don't understand why a murder investigation never occured when Barry Evans was discovered in his house with head injuries and his taxi had been stolen? 🤔
Maybe the police were busy with other crimes that day.
You'd be surprised at how selective the police🎉 can be about what to look into and why. Its less common than you'd think for them to look the other way.
Sounds like a gay thing to me.
Police were busy persecuting citizens for "wrong" thinking. Typical in Britain..no police doing real police work. That's exactly why I left that shithkle that is the toilet of the world nowadays.
@@stuartmenziesfarrant how?
I'm a big fan of this great actor. I love watching Mind Your Language and i view all the episodes again and again. May Barry Evans rest in peace.
he was great actor of his time۔ his role in mind your language as English language teacher will not be forgotten۔
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
I got recomended this sitcom from my english teacher course, but he passed away bcause of accident 3 years ago, RIP both are great teachers
You'll always be our favourite Mr Brown 😢
i don't know why i am crying watching this video . i feel so heartbroken for him. Life puts us all in sudden paths that we feel so lost n purposeless
It truly is a sad end to a wonderful personality who was loved globally.Scotland Yard should open his case and find those responsible as he was a kind and beloved personality who deserved better.May God May justice be served and God Rest his soul.🎉
He was a brilliant actor. I enjoyed all his roles. His death is a murder mystery that's never been solved. It's still an open verdict. I hope he gets the justice he deserves. RIP.
So, sad to know that this brilliant actor, dying at a young age. God bless you ❤ Mr. Barry Evans....
I discovered this talented actor in the sitcom Mind your language and I love this actor👏👏👏👏. Jeremy was a unique character of Mind your language , of course not only Mr. Brown
I remember when England actually looked like this. Sad death of an actor and country.
Look how tidy the council estates were
Sad how UK fell because of these so called leaders..
Totally wrong Britain was a lot dirtier then. Pollution was terrible all the buildings in cities were stained black ,raw sewage was pumped straight into rivers. If you don’t believe me watch some of the British films made at the time and see how clean Britain was. I was still playing on bomb sites .People didn’t walk there dogs, they just let them out in the morning and back in at night.There was dog muck everywhere.
@@johnmulligan912 it’s much worse now. Like being on holiday in Eastern Europe
@@fromtheflightdeck252And the foreigners
They are looking for revenge!
I am more than sure those !nf!de|s are here to take back this country our ancestors build for ages! Why is our leader a non Christian brown man? Why are the muslims demanding Sharia laws? And why are we a minority in London?
Think about it!
Such a talent! Mind your language is and always will be a classic
I agree 👍 very funny show.😭🤣😂
He was a very charismatic actor! Still watch his videos almost every day!💙
Yes I was fan of his. In India we never got news of their lives. Now thanks to you tube I can see the old episodes over and over again. Very sad to know about their life and death.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing your life story! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
He was actually a fantastic actor with a winsome smile.
In my spare time I love watching his show mind ur language
Love from India
He was amazing actor. I was not born when the "Mind Your Language" show was on air. I watch all seasons on RUclips. I like Berry Evan's acting skills. All actors are good, and their performances are excellent.
Absolutely! We feel the same way. Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
RUclips suggested me some mind your language shorts and I started watching them. I loved this actor very much. Just researched about him and I found this video. Very very sad 😢
Acting is quite tough carrier to pursue and a lot depends upon luck there...still Barry was a remarkable actor but if he never did any project other than mind your language, that show alone is enough to keep him alive on screen forever🌹
I had no idea this very talented man had such a very sad beginning and a terrible end, I have always enjoyed him in Mind Your Language, as he did no family there was no effort into finding out how he died of if there was anyone involved with his death, I hope someone cares enough to reopen his case he certainly deserves justice.R.I.P. Mr Brown ,as he will always be remembered as.
What a loss to all??? Barry Evans was an excellent actor eventhough I only got to watch "Mind Your Language".
RIP
Loved his acting,he was very handsome too,poor Barry ❤x.
Im not even born at that time but came across his show in the shotz accidental. But in absolute love with it. Missing his charisma n sweetness. So sad for him rip
May his soul rest in peace. How sad!
Will always miss him.my favourite English teacher.i am again so sad to hear about his life.he was such a nice person.
I’ve always believed he was murdered. He was the perfect foil for the foreign students in MYL. RIP Sir, thanks for the laughs. 🙏🏾
İ didn't know and I am very sorry to hear it hasn't been unsolved to this day. RIP Barry. I still enjoy Mind you language in 2024👏👏👏👏
Barry Evans needs justice and fair play. The case remains inconclusive as well.
RIP Barry...sure made me laugh when I was so young😢
I loved watching him in the 'Doctor' series' he was a total heart throb, it's such a shame that actors fall out of favour with TV companies, especially based on looks. RIP Barry :(
Thank you for making this video. I dont believe he killed himself, everything prior screams foul play. If it was proven no medication was found in his system how can it be suicide? He was clearly robbed and murdered. We all know uk police dont like hardwork when it comes to murders, you just have to research how they dealt with the Yorkshire Ripper and the Wests.
I pray he knows now just how loved he still is, how he left us fans with a lasting smile from the joy of watching his wonderful acting. ❤️
He was murdered but by the industry. You think a robbery and the perpetrators would be ignored if they were really random peasants? We all know it dont work like that.
@@taftybufty Why? What would be their gain? And so many years after he was washed out by the industry itself, they should consider him a burnout. God knows he never bothered anyone through the media of the time... why do this to him? and in such an insulting and painful way?
Always terrible to lose a great talent
What a real & great actor 👌🏻
I love him .his acting in mind your language is impeccable .
Glad to know that your're a fan of Barry. Thanks for sharing! What other types of video would you like to see?
What a shame to his end of life. I have always liked him because he was a brilliant actor I regularly watched… ‘Mind your language’ 🙏🏾🙏🏾. RIP Barry .
I think there was a lot more to his death if i remember correctly - the clue being in the 18 year old guy leaving his house at 3 am - However if dragging all that up again isnt going to have the mystery of his death solved there is no point in doing so - Having said that things have moved on as far as detective work is concerned maybe the case should be looked into again and get Barry the justice he deserves - R.I.P.
Iways have been a big fan of Mr Brown . He was my role model in teaching English. Although my students managed a few times to release the Miss Courtney hidden inside 🤦🏻♀.
I liked him v much he was and the entire cast an exceptional actors and Barry indeed a v lovely Chrismatic personality
Its award winning show, his acting was fantabulouly fabulous❤
He died young and too soon. I think he drank too much that night and someone took advantage of it and hit him on the head. I remember him well. Very sad.
I think Leicester police need to reopen the "cold case" files on this.
I was a fan of this character. I never knew about his death.
Me too
Whenever i enjoy a show or movie, i like to look at the cast of the shows or movies, when i look at his death, it was very sad and shocking to me how he died. He looks so innocent. 😓😢
Such a good actor, feel sad to hear about his unfortunate death in such unfortunate way. He deserved a better life.
We're saddened too. May Barry find peace. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
May God bless him and rest his soul in eternity peace
He must have been so disillusioned getting his first break in 1968 until his last success in mind your language in 1986 by the 1990s he was probably not just disillusioned with his career but also the way he perceived the world
So good-looking and a really great actor. 🙏💖🙏
yes, i must say that Mind Your Language is all about Barry Evans. RIP dear Mr. Barry Evans. 17/01/2024
He deserves justice the case should be reopened
Accidentally I "discover" MYL on you tube a couple of weeks ago and immediately I read the tragic death of this wonderful man. Unfortunately in Italy he isn't known but I want to know more more and more about him. I want to see everything I can find.
Anyway I think that after 26 years, it would be easier to know the truth today. This cold case must absolutely be reopened.
Great actor indeed, his unfortunate and untimely death is very tragic and sorrowful. May his soul rest in peace
Very sad indeed...a wonderful actor...loved Mind your language.. there is no one who can replace him.. very natural and talented actor...Mr Brown...
I just recently discovered Mind Your Language on Tiktok and it is heartbreaking to know what happened to Barry Evans. 😢
