Born: 31st August 1923, Banbury

What an absolute wonderful man Larry was. I spent the first 18 years of my life in Nuneaton and still have family there. As well as having members of my family in this very graveyard. Larry lived around the corner from me and I would see him most days walking his dog. He never failed to say hello when passing. Nuneaton still misses him ♥️
We all miss this very special man .
That’s nice so nice my love from scotland 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I've always wondered, in what road in Nuneaton did Larry live?.
Larry Grayson was one of those naturally funny people and a colourful character, loved him! ♥️
Larry Grayson was the best thing that ever happened to the generation game, is camp comedy and innuendo was second to none. Aways fondly remembered
He was good but Bruciecwas the king of the gameshows!🤔
Larry Grayson just got on with his life whatever his sexual preference. Something todays idiots should do instead of harping on about it .
RIP Larry a very natural entertainer who made it all look so easy.
Very well done & tactfully done as ever
Best wishes & thanks for all your hard work .
He didnt have much choce
👏👏
There was a reason people didn't go on about being gay in the past . It was illegal . You could be arrested, put to jail and/or chemically castrated for being caught engaging in of age, consensual, gay and lesbian sex . Im not refering to child abuse which is a diffrent issue altogether .
Read the story of mathematician Alan Turing to see what i mean .

My uncle died at 89 years old 3 years ago . He was gay . Never once did he come out . We all knew it and my family never had an issue with the 2 partners he had in my 47 years of life .
The tragedy about his generation of gay comedians is the they actually believed the worst kind of homophobic propaganda about themselves ... he once told his agent that he was a walking talking mistake. I know he isnt popular with the LGBTQ+ rights movement but I adored him, I have warm childhood memories of my nanas reaction to him watching The Generation Game.

I used to absolutely adore this man. I was a child and he really made me laugh. R.I.P you great man x ❤️ The Generation Game was one of my favourite shows ever.
I admired Larry throughout my childhood. After learning more about him, I am endeared to him profoundly. A lovely, lovex, humble, genuine, gentle, missed unique gentleman. Bless you sweet man, always in our hearts, mind, laughs. X
Lovely tribute Paul.... Met Larry years ago while working at Birmingham Airport in the baggage hall. There was a baggage delay. Spent ages talking to him, a lovely quiet fella. RIP Larry

Greetings from wiltshire
As a kid growing up and watching him on tv he made me laugh. He had that naughty glint in his eyes. Oh the days! RIP Larry but I think you are around somewhere! xx
Such a beautiful person.. his personality was one all on its own.. r.i.p. Larry.. thanks for the joy and laughter you spread around the country
Fond memories of Larry and Isla xxx
Thank you for taking the time to find one of the people who made me laugh as a kid. He famously never rehearsed a lot of the things he was asked to do on The Generation Game as it helped the contestants look better. He was the best one to present TGG and with Isla St Clair made it a must watch. RIP Larry - now shut that door!
He truly was a funny man bought joy and laughter to a lot of people thank you for doing this you really are a dedicated and respectable man RIP Larry Grayson ❤️
Well done in finding the grave
He was very successful for an extended period
Great memories! A very funny man, thank you for finding him.
Glad you enjoyed it

The generation game, larry grayson & isla s't claire. Brilliant.👍
Thank you Paul for this very interesting presentation.I loved Larry Grayson's camp humour.He really made me laugh, he was just so outrageous.
Larry Grayson was a comic legend I will always Remember his catch phrases " shut that door " and look at the muck in here and his very camp humour and him in the Larry Grayson Generation game and his stand up comedian talking about his friends "Slack Alice " basically he was a iconic comedian and host of game shows many many happy memories I have of him a true legend in every sense of the word such a funny man who could make the audience's laugh without resorting to profanities true legend Larry Grayson R..I.P 😍😍🌈🥰😍
A true entertainer from a time when television had real stars unlike today
Super entertainer and hugely missed
If you ever get a chance go to Camberwell new cemetery there is a grave there belonging to Freddie Mills the boxer next to him is Cadillac Johnny and the Richardsons the rival gang to the Krays
He was close freinds with Noel Gordon from crossroad’s
Great show Generation Game. Rip sir

He was lovely,rest in peace Larry
I worked in a car wash when I was 14.larry drove in and had meg richardson driving him.he gave me 5.00pounds .I thought I had won the lottery. ❤️This was 1970.im 66now.
Brilliant video, I loved watching him all those years ago, his humour was hilarious
RIP Larry shut that door in heaven 💐
Loved watching him, very funny man.
Lovely tribute from you Paul to a Comedy Giant much missed he always made us laugh, he made the Generation Game his own always made the contestants feel at home such a kind gentle man. Over 18 Million viewers every week to watch his show, he would fill 2000 seater theatres wherever he appeared I'm afraid we will not see his likes again but what a legacy he left behind, he loved all the Classic Hollywood Films and loved talking about them. Thank you, Larry, for all the laughs, a legend in his own time gone but most definitely not forgotten. Thanks, Paul, so lovely top see Larry's final resting place, I hope he is still having a ball up there! RIP. Will you - "Shut That Door!"

I pass Larry’s grave when I visit my parents resting place. God bless Larry ❤
Brilliant comedian my brother painted Larry's house my brother was a proffessional painter and decorator. Larry told my brother a few days before he died that he was getting pain.
So sad he was a lovely person
Cant believe they let him out so early to probably fend for himself .
@@stevenwade7466 they did take the appendix out but the poison it was to late it had gone into his system,he asked to go home I heard.
Brilliant Tribute thankyou.
My mum and stepfather ashes are scattered in the Garden of remembrance nearby Lerrys grave. I spoke to Larry a few times in the town when he was walking his dog.fame came to Larry later in life and it never whent to his head. He stayed close to his roots RIP
He was such a lovely chap
I loved alarry Grayson a lovely man and so funny god bless his soul
Very respectful video. I was talking to someone at a party years ago who had met Larry Grayson several times and he said he was a wonderful man who never said a bad word about anyone.
wow, what comic genius, britains funniest comedian ever, as far as i am concerned,
Loved Larry thanks for your clip I would love to visit his grave RIP Larry love you xxxxx
God bless Larry and “Shut that door”
Gone too soon! R.i.p. Man
Some very good people have come out of nuneaton....my aunty new Larry.. RIP
Such an interesting video.Larry was a favourite of mine. He was good friends with Noele Gordon from Crossroads. They enjoyed a lovely friendship for years.
Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure!
A pure gentleman and and a 1st class comedian loved his show's. RIP🙏
Just a wonderful entertainer so gentle and loved watching his shows. Very sorely missed a one off never to be replaced
He was a truly truly lovely gentleman, I remember him and Noele Gordon at the Grosvenor club on hagley road a very discrete members club “ code word for gay club “ and the pair of them really was great fun and extremely down to earth people who stuck together like glue . Brilliant times and many a party went pack to Nolls place up Handsworth Wood .
Awwww Larry Grayson grew up watching him on tv his humour and warmth just captivated you, what an absolute star. RIP Larry sadly missed.
I loved that dear man,
You could just tell he was a gentle soul.
Rest in perfect peace loved you xxxxxx
God bless Larry Grayson. A wonderfully talented man who gave so much joy to so many. My children now laugh at the antics I found so endearing and funny so many years ago. X
God bless rip
Still revered and spoken of fondly in Nuneaton.
Just a lovely, lovely man.
Larrys comedy timing was pure genious. A wonderfull entertainer.
It's sad to think that no matter how popular or great we are, we all end up in he ground (or cremated). Larry made us laugh, yet there is no special privileges, we are all the same after death. RIP Larry.
I'm from Nuneaton Warwickshire Larry was a funny and down to earth man
I love your channel thank you sharing
I used to love him on The Generation Game. At one point he lived in the hills in Torquay and drove a Rolls Royce. I listened to a podcast, I think on BBC sounds about him. He said that it took him 40years to become an overnight success.
I also remember when he was in hospital and was then released. A few days later press called Isla St Clair to say they were sorry about Larry. She told them he was gone and recovering only to be given the news that he had died.
Apparently in his dying moment, he stared into the corner past everyone, sat bolt upright and then passed away
He was a really funny man
Used to love watching him on Saturday night telly. I remember him also on The Good Old Days.....Loved his sense if humour. Not like the stand up of today. His comedy was more innuendo......Always rememberd with laughter ....Thankyou Larry..
Someone has taken very good care of that stone..it’s beautifully clean and polished…I always try and do the same for my parents stone, so appreciate when other people do. It’s sad to see graves in disrepair , no flower etc. Thankyou for finding his grave for us…he gave a lot of pleasure to many audiences. RIP William (Larry) 💐🙏
Thanks Paul, super interesting, Top Guy! Best wishes from Birmingham, a stones throw from Nuneaton!
I like your narration on these there very polite and respectful.
Boss video mate 👍
Thanks 👍
@@interestingplaces1 Can you go by the Chichester Crematorium and Garden of Remembrance and do a video on Thora Hird (1911-2003)’s grave please? Thanks.
@@jameswillis1763 Hi she was cremated theres no headstone
@@interestingplaces1 Oh, never mind then.
He was a personality unique and now never to be replaced. Rest in Peace Larry and SHUT THAT DOOR..
Rest in peace
Thank you Paul for sharing your very interesting videos, some excellent content 😀
Good video paul. would have been nice to see a small bunch of flowers on his grave looks like no one goes to it... Just a thought Paul.
that is rather sad, isn't it?
Well done finding him
Mary elizabeth roberts was flo sister and alice daughter she married Charles J Roberts in 1925 she was born 8 July 1907 her father was James Catcliffe who died in the war hope this helps you
Love your channel Paul
VERY SPECIAL....ALL THOSE THAT MADE HIM WITH HIM....GOD THE ENERGY !!!@
A humble man with a kind heart, sadly missed
My hero ♥️
Just a BTW the guy I worked for bought Larrys house on Hinkley Road Nuneaton. He then had moved down south to Torquay but I don't think he settled there, missing his home town.
Nuneaton should be ashamed that they never put a statue of Larry up in the town centre : he loved that place
L love him so funny great own tv funny oh stunt that door amazing man
What a lovely video Paul you do a wonderful job I adored Larry Grayson so funny and lovely man sadly missed thankyou for all your effort 😊

My pleasure!
Thank you so much. I loved this guy.💐
Very interesting video Paul, I always wondered where Larry Grayson was buried, many thanks for all your hard work you put in to bring us these interesting video
My dad was very good friends with Larry Grayson (Billy brean ) as they were sometimes performed at the same variety acts around the country.
Mary Roberts was Larry's sister the daughter of his adopted parents.
I thought only three could be buried if cremated or coffin on top of each other. Rest in peace Larry Grayson,famous phrase ooo shut that door
They may be interred elsewhere and remembered on this memorial.
Shut that door! And his specs x
👍👍👍
He suffered loneliness &depression
