It's good to know that I'm not the only soppy old sod out there, I really miss tuning into that program on a Sunday as I did for over 30 years, it's not same watching the dvds. Cheers for the tour.
Greetings from the US. LTSW was shown on my local PBS station until it became too old fashioned... like me. The theme song still brings a tear to my eye.
I loved the pilot of 'Last of the Summer Wine' and the following Series 1 and 2. Long before the days of Foggy, Howard and Marina and Edie Pegden's coffee mornings, these are the days when the trio was Clegg, Compo and "less of the Cyril" Blamire, and the days when Compo and even Ivy swore, "well bloody pay for it" Ivy yells at Compo who hasn't paid for a current bun from the cafe and Kathy Staff's character was referred to and credited as 'Mrs.Batty'. Loved these early episodes!
I don't know if this is the same for other people who grew up in the 70's & 80's but I noted that it does recur. LotSW came on on a Sunday night when you were getting stuff prepared for school next day - weekend over! For me, the theme tune always evoked that sense of mild disappointment through association with these fretful circumstances. Same as Songs of Praise mind you! Now that I'm over 50 I have been re-watching the old episodes and love them. I enjoy a hike so always see the landscape as an additional character if you like. And wouldn't we all like a return to childhood and sheer stupidity when we are up to our necks with work and stress!
Great work guys, The original threesome created a different "feel"in the early episodes. Iv,e watched LOSW from start to finish and loved it all whatever the changes that happened over the years. I have watched the entire box sets so many times and like you guys I can probably qoute most of the entire scripts from some episodes..Please keep up the good work..
Fabulous. Keep ‘em coming. Sat on the tube watching series 13 on my iPad and in this hectic and rapidly changing world, LSOW is a daily comforting escape. Little did they know that all these decades later, they’d be bringing so much joy and peace to so many.
I've just started watching series one for the first time in over four decades and it's interesting just how different the characters are especially glegg who seems very brave and even insults Nora to her face now that's bravery..
Been to Holmfirth twice. It is a lovely little town, and many of the locations are easily recognisable in real life. No wonder they chose to film the series there.
Ey Oop chaps, loving the passion for the show! Here's my drone vid of some of the sites from the show taken a couple of months ago, it includes Entwistle's Pick Up which the Beeb must have put there for the anniversary, sadly vandalised overnight🙄🙄
I Used to Enjoy this show when it was new with my Dad he would be 103 .I'm 55 . It still want to step into the screen Bicycle around the Village sit in the Pub Pint and listen to those old Caracters tell a embellished stories and walk or stumble out the door from age or drink looking for a bit of other fun.😁
I'm American and I Love "Last of the Summer Wine" not least of all for the Fact it has Soooooo many Episodes. I don't think I've watched them all yet. I Love the other Roy Clarke shows as well. No Curse Words or Sex and Nudity just Good old Fashion Double Entendre.
Just watched the episode downhill racer, thinking of the locations and ppl who have been and gone, disappointed to see how busy it is there now was hoping it would still be a quiet village
@@summerwinos2341 Very much doubt the fish was caught there - it doesn't look right. The river was declared officially dead for over 100 years and I lived next to it in the 50's and 60's. There was no grass or any vegetation anywhere near the river. Nothing at all could grow there. That shot shows lots of grass. Next time, why don't you look up Marks Bottom (if you'll excuse me). It's a lovely area between Netherthong and Upperthong. It's not changed much at all in 50 years. I think the fish was caught there.
We have to be a little mindful of intruding on some residents' privacy, but here are some for you: The Path and Stairs that the girls walk down: Between Sid's Cafe and Church Terrace The Chapel and Graveyard: Holy Trinity Church Burial Ground The Laundrette: 17 Victoria Street, Holmfirth The Library: 104 School Street, Holmfirth (Walk 30 seconds between here and the river and you will see the steps that lead down to the tiddler drop off point) We hope that helps!
Absolutely love LOTSW, I found the early days they seemed quite frantic and slowed down the pace a bit as the series went on, much missed programme and even more missed are the cast....
Looking up old episodes on Utube is sooo disappointing, the quality is crap? Do you know why, most other sitcoms are ok on Utube. Why don't you start uploading better quality episodes?
I have found a good way to make sure your kids remember you when you’re gone, bore them daily by watching LOTSW , my lot hate it but as soon the tune starts they whistle to it….. and then moan……Not Again !
It's about relationships, family, friendship, ageing, reminiscing, love, life & laughter .. the fundamental things in life. Done in a gentle slapstick kinda way but timeless & endearing. Cheer up petal 😂 😉
@@wandyy8078 you are missing the point of my comment: “Last of the Summer Wine” and “Seinfeld” share the unique quality of finding humor in the mundane aspects of life. They both excel at turning everyday situations and ordinary interactions into entertaining and memorable moments. It was way ahead of curve and way ahead of shows like Seinfeld.
Thanks for keeping the memories alive after 50 years.
My favorite show of all time. Thanks to DVD's, I watch it every night.
I have just seen this video and I loved it. I love Last Of The Summer Wine.
It's good to know that I'm not the only soppy old sod out there, I really miss tuning into that program on a Sunday as I did for over 30 years, it's not same watching the dvds. Cheers for the tour.
And so it goes history of family and humor. Sure miss this show.😅😊
What an extremely unique series absolutely excellent

I do love and appreciate what you guys do. Hopefully you do more very soon.

Thank you so much . I treasure my dvd collection of the series. This video was fantastic!
You're very welcome!
Absolutely superb. Great use of the music.
Love it, Stephen.
Sensational, hope you manage more than 4 more of your great videos over the next 10 years!
Very nicely done. Come on , Royston Clarke is now 92 and still no biography. No one can do it better than you two.

Another winner from Bob and Andrew. Such a shame the chapel is no longer there.

Wow what a great surprise! Thanks!

Absolutely brilliant. I haven’t seen the other three videos……yet. But I’ll be putting that to rights asap. Thanks fellas 👍
Thank you for these enjoyable episodes Love the show and am glad to get new fun
I've just started watching series one for the first time in over four decades and it's interesting just how different the characters are especially glegg who seems very brave and even insults Nora to her face now that's bravery..
What a lovely tour! Thank you!
i remember in the 90s as a kid watching last of the summer wine with my parent on a sunday before dreaded school the next day!
Big Shout out for the score of the series. It really makes your video pop.
het was zo mooi en lief en ondeugend .

Fantastic! Made my day, thank you.
I delivered amazon round there for a few month. used to love driving up and down those steep windy narrow streets 🙄👍
Thank you. I look forward to the next installment 😊
Such a great show, fifty years since the show aired. ✌️☺️
Great video! See you next year!

So grateful for your videos and keeping us fans memories alive. ❤️ you guy's are brilliant thank you 😊 🙏

Just remember that the BBC were also able to organise moving cars out of the way for shooting. Holmfirth is busier now, but it's still a lovely place.
Fantastic!
Great stuff.
Love this!
Excellent work! I've looked around the area for the stream in the past and not found it.
Just head for the south east corner of the co-op car park and you will find stairs that take you down to a calm little paved area by the river.

You have an apprentice. Take a look at Evan Marney on his channel.
Looking up old episodes on Utube is sooo disappointing, the quality is crap? Do you know why, most other sitcoms are ok on Utube.
Why don't you start uploading better quality episodes?
Thanks so much. I realize all things change but I don't like it. Great video.
I have found a good way to make sure your kids remember you when you’re gone, bore them daily by watching LOTSW , my lot hate it but as soon the tune starts they whistle to it….. and then moan……Not Again !
the original show about nothing.
It's about relationships, family, friendship, ageing, reminiscing, love, life & laughter .. the fundamental things in life. Done in a gentle slapstick kinda way but timeless & endearing. Cheer up petal 😂 😉
