Lovely tribute. I watch almost all British TV shows via Britbox here in America. I discovered Paul O'Grady two years ago from his show about dogs from Battersea Dog and Cat Home and instantly fell in love with him. I was incredibly gutted by his passing, His like is rare indeed. He spent his life helping people and animals.
Very sad seeing so many of my childhood heroes passing - saddest about Paul O'Grady though - his love and concern for the well-being of innocent animals was an inspiration to anyone with a heart 😻😻🐺🐺
I was fine until Paul O'Grady appeared and then I lost it. I cannot explain why his death hit me so hard but it certainly did. You have produced a very good tribute piece to all these talented performers and I thank you for it.❤
@@Richard-fv7rqLove your comment! I said to myself, since I was a young kid, "if someone doesn't love animals, I won't like them", and it stayed with me...forever. x
When viewing the memories of my childhood in England from here in the United States, there appears to be almost nothing I can relate to. Saddest thing evermore. 😪.
i said to my son not long back, How do you know when you're getting old. ANSWER your favourite childhood actors pop stars and sport stars start popping off
Some really memorable people going last year. Ones that I grew up with. Micael Parkinson. David McCallum. Lilly Savage. Glenda Jackson hit hard. She was such a consummate actress. I know we all have to go but always sad to hear of their passing. Normally I don't recognise a lot of the people shown on the screen as passing but I knew a lot of these actors. RIP all of them. Thanks for sharing.
Yes but many of those obnoxious, snappy little turd excreting horrors, do require a daily swift kick up the petunia, if for no other reason but to keep your "hand in". Or foot, whichever might be the case.
@@Richard-fv7rq No, it wasn't. And you may call me clever as much as you wish. I don't know where the clogs come in (bet you wish you could tell me !).
I know where you are coming from. Ias realy gutted when Paul o,grade passed. He had such a big Big heart for all Animals. He is so missed I never got bored listening to is chit chat.😢😢😢😢😢
This is an excellent ‘in memoriam’ video to those that have sadly passed. The presentation and narration is perfect, a very fine tribute. Thank you for taking the time to make this tribute and sharing. All the very best to you and yours.
Here in the US, I recognize some of these actors, but most of all, David McCallum. Loved him in The Man from UNCLE and NCIS. Ducky was the best character in that show
Yes . She was great in whatever happened to the likely lads . So young back then ,and that's how I remember her , when we see them a lot older it's hard to grasp ,but then I realise I was only a young boy then and now 62 myself. Time is a flyer that's for sure
only just found that out watching this videoi knew paul agrady had passed as i watched his show the love of dogs may they alll THEM ALL REST IN PEACE i have had to deal with loss my self over the last 2 years or so its not easy (my MAM march 2022 aged 68 and my stepdad PAUL july 2023 aged 64 (MAM AND PAUL MISS YOU BOTH DEARLY EVERY SINGLE DAY NOW YOU BACK TOGETHER YOU BOTH HAVE INTERAL PEACE REST IN PEACE LOVE UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN GOODNIGHT GODBLESS XXX)
RIP and bless all of these lovely souls. I am particularly devastated at the passing of Tom Wilkinson. He was so brilliant in every role, and my absolute favorite actor. A once in a generation extraordinary talent.
It is so sad to think that all those stars had passed away in 2023. I can remember quite a few. Was so sad when John motson passed away, he was one of the best football commentators we ever had. RIP to all those stars that sadly passed away in 2023
Thanks for that Stu. 😊 Some of those deaths I had actually not heard about…incredibly sad but for the most part -they made old bones and they are remembered very very fondly. That’s the most anyone can hope for in the end I think. Thanks again.
No ads, no AI PC generated voice, a great vid. well produced and well narrated. Whenever an actor I knew well, such as Joss Ackland or Paul O Grady came up I couldn't help being moved by the hours of enjoyment I got from them.
So sad when you lose anybody in the home and our wounderfull actors and sport stars but all there talent kept the the world going gone but ever forgotten plus’s out wounderfull Queen last year
Heartbreaking when you see the talent that we have lost. I wish they could live forever & in the future, many will watch them & remember how good they were, how they made us laugh, cry & appreciate them. RIP. All of them….
Very nicely done, although I personally wish you’d included Benjamin Zephaniah. Although primarily known as a poet he was an actor having appeared in Peaky Blinders. Paul O’Grady and Len Goodman broke me though. Both lost too soon, especially Paul who could and should have had at least another 20 years left. I watched a similar video about American stars we lost last year and yours was a million times better and more respectful. Thank you x
I left the UK in 1983, but I remember many of these actors growing up. I didn’t even realize that some of them had passed away. They have left a lasting legacy on film. An expat in Florida.
Same here.I was a huge 'Tomorrow People' fan growing up in the UK, and was saddened to hear of Peter Vaughan-Clarke's passing. We're losing so many stars now...
Whenever I watch tribute videos of those no longer with us, especially those who I watched as a young girl, it makes me think about life and what we should prioritse. "The flower that once has blown, forever dies". Lest we not forget.
It's so full of nostalgia and flashbacks to endless hours of entertainment, laughter and joy that all these stars gave us over the years. I'm filled with sadness of the happy kind and most of you will know what I mean. When we watch something like this, we think of our own time here on earth and all the wonderful experiences as well as the tragedies and anxieties that we must all face. But one thing I believe with as much conviction as anyone can possible have, is that there is never an "end". It is just a doorway to the next thing - whatever it may be. Our memories, experiences, pains, loves, thoughts and actions are all perfectly preserved in the eternal library of consciousness. There are no whys or hows in the infinite - just more additions to the endless circle of life. May they all rest in peace.
I was shocked about Haydn Gwynn, she was also in Peak Practice [ as was Sylvia Simms as Isabel deGines in the earlier seasons ] as Dr Joanna Graham for 2 seasons, I also remember Bridget [ Forsyth ] being in Playing the Field too. We lost so many talented people may they all RIP :( PS You forgot Annabeth Giles whom also died this year of a Brain Tumour at 64 she was.
I was very saddened to learn of the death of Michael Parkinson. I remember the interviews he conducted with Robin Williams...sheer chaos, with an eccentric flair only Robin could provide. They seemed to play off each other so well with Michaels probing questions leading Robin to showcase his fine improvisational skills. Michael Parkinson was an exceptional gentleman.
Brilliant salute to these wonderful people, so very sad that so many passed away when still relatively young. RIP dear Folks. Also thanks for the very good background music, seemed to suit the mood perfectly.
Respectfully presented and a beautiful tribute to a plethora of talent - remembering too some of our stars that ( am I allowed to say … ) would likely not have had their passing mentioned on mainstream TV. Thanks Stu
I’ve always said, this channel is such a fantastic window in to our past, yet always touches me with a tinge of melancholy. One minute I was playing knock down ginger, scrumping for apples and playing conkers, I blinked and am now 55. Where did the time go? Love your channel Stu, happy new year to you and yours Sir. 🙏🏾
Nice to see you got Dr Who actor Richard Franklin in. I knew him briefly in the early 1980's and when he went to London for his cameo in The Five Doctors (1983) he kindly took an autograph book for me. In one fell swoop, I got Jon Pertwee, Patrick Troughton, Peter Davison, Anthony Ainley (the Master), Nicholas Courtney (Brigadier), Elizabeth Sladen, Carol Anne Ford (Susan) & Janet Fielding (Tegan).RIP Richard.
R.I.P Tom Wilkinson one of my all time favourite actors plus born and bread up the road from where I was born. A great actor, We will miss you. Thank you Tom for all the delight you brought to our lives.
So so sad seeing all these beautiful people who were great actors who gave us joy throughout their careers. The end seems such sorrow to us all and especially to their family and friends. We only knew them on the screen but to have known them would have been beautiful. Goodbye dear friends parting is such sweet sorrow. RIP. 😢
I didn’t realise we had lost so many stage and screen icons. Particularly sad about George Alaghiah, David McCallum, Michael Parkinson and Paul O’Grady. A lovely tribute.
This is the best tribute to all these famous and adorable people. I was very fortunate to go and see Paul Ogrady's grave and I feel so privileged to have been there. Rip to all these wonderful people.
Yep I was the same coping ok with sadness and loss of so many but the reminder of Paul's passing hit me the most he was such lovely man. Thank you for putting the
What an amazing tribute to all the stars of stage and screen featured here,i know of them all but whati never worked out was that ducky in NCIS was in danielle and steele! Thankyou stu and much love to all their familys this year
Thank you for mentioning my favourite actor and musician, David McCallum! He also wrote a book "Once A Crooked Man". I'm glad I got to meet him in Atlanta Ga, in '76 and '78 after 2 plays he performed in at the Peachtree Playhouse. He was a kind and warm man! RIP, David.
Thank you for posting this. Over here in Canada, while we do broadcast Brit shows like Coronation Street, we mostly see American memorial videos that only mention actors who were big in American films. Parkinson was always a riot to watch. A forerunner for Graham Norton. (Both of which I was only able to watch via vids on RUclips. Would be amazing to watch Parkinson on TV in his heyday.)
Paul o Grady was a very gentile man unlike his alter ego LILY savage his love foranimals endeared him to many more fans I personally loved him as Paul o Grady
This is just amazing to watch these outstanding humans have left me some at avery young age others has taken life by the balls and achieved perfection wow!!!!! Congratulations I stand by you
Every year, so sad. In particular to me, Paul O Grady, Parky, Mike Yarwood, George Armstrong, Richard Franklin, David Kernan and I can't believe Haydn Gwynne passed. She was utter quality. And everyone else to be fair. All in their own way parts of my childhood and life. Thank you all of you. Heart breaking the lot of them. RIP.
These tribute videos are just so darn sad. They're nostalgic in that they remind me of my youth, sitting on the livingroom floor of my grandparents watching TV. We all die at some point, I guess, but it still feels so tragic when we pass. Without an end there can be no beginnings.
Thank you so much for this tribute to some brilliant British stars. This video was full of people I knew well on the TV in my youth. It was pretty sad those great names from a simpler time are gone. Thanks again for some brilliant memories.
What a beautiful and respectful tribute video. Heartbreaking to see how many wonderful actors, actresses and presenters we've lost in just one year! More heartbreaking was the age of some of them. So sad. The one that hit me most was Michael Gambon. Thank you for a really lovely tribute ❤️
We lost so many greats last year, names i grew up with and remember so well, it makes you realize none of us are getting any younger!, may they all rest in peace.
It is so scary. When a kid you grow up with these actors on your TV set & suddenly they are old and pass away! Life is very short. 😢
Yes agree!
Amen.... where are they now?? blessings... :) Think Yeshua... take care
So much so when they pass in their 50's .
Nice tribute, RIP to all gone but not forgotten
Mike Yarwood was massive back in the 70's and early 80's...big viewing figures with his impressions!
A sad walk down memory lane. Many fine British stars remembered.
Makes you think. Don't it?
I found Michael Gambon when he starred in an English-language version of Maigret. He is such a treat to watch.
It was The Cook The Thief His Wife Her Lover and The Singing Detective for me
Yes, for me he is the definitive Maigret.
I hadn't realised just how many of our film and TV favourites had passed away in the past 12 months.
Thanks for invoking some lovely memories.
I didn’t either.There are so many that I really enjoyed watching,through many years.
Lovely tribute. I watch almost all British TV shows via Britbox here in America. I discovered Paul O'Grady two years ago from his show about dogs from Battersea Dog and Cat Home and instantly fell in love with him. I was incredibly gutted by his passing, His like is rare indeed.

Paul was unapologetic and sincere.
He's having a lorra laughs with Cilla now; they were very close
Paul was a good man. I judge people on how they are with animals. This guy was a legend.
Same. x
@@Richard-fv7rqLove your comment! I said to myself, since I was a young kid, "if someone doesn't love animals, I won't like them", and it stayed with me...forever. x

May they all R.I.P.

Sad but very true. At least for most people.
I've lost 6 of my friends over the last 2 years and I'm getting pretty f-cking sick of it ♠️
Starting with Ronnie Corbett in early 2016, the last seven years has been like watching my childhood memories disappear in front of me.😟
Its like someone is raping my favourite years.
Agreed ✌️
When viewing the memories of my childhood in England from here in the United States, there appears to be almost nothing I can relate to. Saddest thing evermore. 😪.
i said to my son not long back, How do you know when you're getting old. ANSWER your favourite childhood actors pop stars and sport stars start popping off
That's old age for you, all part of life.
Beautifully presented, thanks for sharing this respectful tribute.

So sad that the enterta inment industry should have to lose some of the best 9:27 9:27
Always so respectfully presented. It was a very fitting tribute to the many lost stars of 2023.
Thank you.
Paul O'Grady was brilliant with animals, very caring. Was it Ghandi who said a man should be judged by how he is with animals. So true.
No, it was Gandhi.

Adolf Hitler was a dog lover...
@@Richard-fv7rq No, it wasn't. And you may call me clever as much as you wish. I don't know where the clogs come in (bet you wish you could tell me !).

I know where you are coming from.
Ias realy gutted when Paul o,grade passed.
He had such a big Big heart for all
Animals.
He is so missed
I never got bored listening to is chit chat.😢😢😢😢😢

Stu always sets the right tone for the videos.
Agree.
Dale Meeks was a friend of mine and this brought the sadness of his passing back to me. Will never be forgotten ❤
Here in the US, I recognize some of these actors, but most of all, David McCallum. Loved him in The Man from UNCLE and NCIS. Ducky was the best character in that show
Didn't one character ask Gibbs what Ducky looked like when he was young and Gibbs replied "Illya Kuryakin" with a sly grin?
Yes, and I laughed my a** off.
Man from uncle....was that invisible man?????
I don't remembering seeing him in the programe @@michelledrew4688
😉😆
@@michelledrew4688 No. His MFU character name was Illya Kuryakin.
Bloody hell! I never knew we lost that many! Brigitte Forsyth was a shocker.
Yes .
She was great in whatever happened to the likely lads . So young back then ,and that's how I remember her , when we see them a lot older it's hard to grasp ,but then I realise I was only a young boy then and now 62 myself.
Time is a flyer that's for sure
I was shocked at Angela Thorne and Sylvia Syms.
There's no need to swear.

@@thadtuiol1717 Get over yourself, our language is based upon swearing and profanity.
To me Michael Parkinson dying was very sad I went to some of his shows at the BBC . He was the best talk show host on television. Rest in peace.

May all these beautiful people RIP, they brought so many joyful memories to many….💐
A very sad but respectful tribute to so many , who were fondly remembered as part of our growing up years.

Not something I would usually say I am looking forward too but you are so calm and respectful I am with this, sad as it may be.
Thank you for this tribute stu, all sadly missed.
Thank you for this - lost it a couple of times, especially seeing the two wonderful ladies from The Likely Lads - happy memories of the 70's.
Len Goodman was a shock! Always liked him in Dancing With the Stars
Lovely tribute to all those who sadly moved on...makes me sentimental and appreciate what we have now....cherish the moment.
Sad times. Thanks for this very respectful tribute.
Oh mate, that was tough one...
Thank you for such a measured and respectful tribute. 👏❤️👍
Many thanks.
Very well presented - both sympathetic and professional. Brought back many happy memories of those programmes. Thanks Stu and happy new year.
Many thanks. Much appreciated.
I never realised so many people from showbusiness died, when people you watched as a child die, it makes you feel your age.
Deep down I'd think Glenda would of hated Tony Blair ,and his new labour she was a very caring person ,all things considered 😢
That's it, I'm definitely retiring. Life's too short!
Geat tribute and the narrator was spot on. So good not to hear the robotic dull tones of AI
How true.
No ads, no AI PC generated voice, a great vid. well produced and well narrated. Whenever an actor I knew well, such as Joss Ackland or Paul O Grady came up I couldn't help being moved by the hours of enjoyment I got from them.
Thank you.
So sad when you lose anybody in the home and our wounderfull actors and sport stars but all there talent kept the the world going gone but ever forgotten plus’s out wounderfull Queen last year
Great tribute. Although I am in New Zealand I still recognised most of them.
Me too

Some I did not realise had passed. Strange really a piece of me died with them. Bittersweet memories
I left the UK in 1983, but I remember many of these actors growing up. I didn’t even realize that some of them had passed away. They have left a lasting legacy on film. An expat in Florida.
Same here.I was a huge 'Tomorrow People' fan growing up in the UK, and was saddened to hear of Peter Vaughan-Clarke's passing.
We're losing so many stars now...
Wonderful Tribute to all remembered...Huge thanks for this one...
Many thanks.
And the new year starts off with another loss, Glynis Johns (1923-2024).
Whenever I watch tribute videos of those no longer with us, especially those who I watched as a young girl, it makes me think about life and what we should prioritse. "The flower that once has blown, forever dies". Lest we not forget.
