Nice to see Jimmy Nail again - I’ve always liked him immensely - he’s a great singer too- much missed from our screens. I lived in Newcastle for 4 years - and I loved the place - and I miss it a lot. Great, kind people with lovely characters.
Goodness me, so glad to happen upon this clip as it's been so long since I've seen or heard anything about the wonderful Jimmy Nail!. Re-watched Auf Wiedersehen, Pet maybe about a year ago and it made me think about how Jimmy seemed to have dropped out of sight. Such a great series though, which I remember watching fondly with my brother and parents when it first came on all those years ago, and such great characters!
The churmins ! Bastads bombed me grannee .... unbelievably brilliant . The guys must have had a riot filming those scenes ..I did watching them . Thanks from the bottom of my heart for the entertainment .Best wishes from Scotland
I have warched every series multiple times, still watching it now. The best Geordie based series along side "When the boat comes in". PS I'm from the south.
We are all watching it in the evenings on itv 4 fantastic viewing it again,happy anniversary folks,forty years ,excellent band of lads and still popular.rip those members passed ,we will treasure the memories.
I remember watching it when it was first on TV, I would’ve only been 4 or 5. Loved it. I was even bought the Joe Fagan 7” single of the theme tune “That’s Living Alright”
It's the best TV series iv ever seen-and my favourite series ever too 👍. I watched it back when it was first broadcast in the early to mid 80s-and I knew brickies who went over to work in Germany myself-so I knew these characters really existed. It was just completely real. 👍
Auf weidersehn pet is the finest piece of tv ever made. The acting, the characters and writing from the 2 geniuses that are dick clement and ian le frenis. I never get tired of watching the episodes again. Funny,sharp and entertaining 😁
Kids growing up in 1980s in england, many of our dads were builders, and that was probably last real generation of kids growing up in uk, where there dads were totally working class builders Thats why it worked, it resonated so much with the white working class male, and what the last real generation of kids in 1980s to grow up as white working class Really at end of cold war, white working class was being shoved off the status as the hero person. White males who were builders in 1980s, was really the last real generation of males who could work hard. Todays kids growing up just cannot work like that anymore, due to many factors
So true. I started my bricklaying apprenticeship at 16 in 1981 and spent the next 3 years running up and down a ladder with a hod on my shoulder. I left the trade in 2009 and now at 59 my knees are gone, I have tennis elbow in both arms, and fallen arches in both feet. As OZ said "a hard job for hard men".
It takes me back to good days, everything was possible then. Every character in this program was realistic and earnestly played...Gary Holton RIP was a very good actor and had lots of potential...they were all great and in the days before iPlayer and box set viewing you had to wait a week until the next episode....long lost days, sad for those now passed..!!!
"why aye man BXLLXCKS" music to my ears cannot tell you how many times ive watched this show ,had dreams of following the lads out only to find they build eastends haha
Jimmy mentioned eastenders set built on the set of awp…..and if anyone remembers there was a character in the admin hut called dagmar……and also a bar/club the same name in eastenders….. coincidence?
The first time I saw people on TV like the ones I was growing up with around me. That's what stood out to me and the second series was made down the road from were I live, Caunton and Thornley Manor was actual Caunton Hall. My mate lived at the back of it and met the cast he got the scripts off them the they used and gave them to me when I was at college with him. Best programme with two of the best writers out there clement & le Frenai they have a cv that is proven an all with porridge and the likely lads to name a few.
I was a bit Disappointed in not mentioning Gary Holton and his Music Career before Auf Wiedersen Pet Jimmy should include some of his songs with the Heavy Metal Kids and his solo songs Gary was a force of Nature with the Heavy metal kids you have never seen such a live performance in your life
"The geordie mafia" as the rest of the non geordie magnificent seven used to refer to em, great series, cast and story lines, and after working on sites for many years not so many that far fetched 😂
Jimmy nail was in a series of minder as a gypsy and it was absolutely brilliant he is a fantastic actor as were the rest of the team they worked very well together very believable and always funny to see oz pottering about in his dirty white wye fronts... hilarious
why not a new auf wiedersehen show ?....i remember sly stallone saying why he did all those rocky sequels , he said he wanted to document rocky,s whole life ....this is the same for this show....we seen them as kids , then middle age ...so whats happening now to this famous group ?
Made other soaps look totally fake in my opinion,..sets were crap but looked real,some of the acting was crap but looked real,or was that down to good acting?,rather than actors just playing parts,...and story lines were good,....and the show was gripping,...so all in all 12 out of 10...
Yep, with other iconic shows that first came out in the 80's like: Boon, Taggart, bergerac, Bread etc - been watching the Repeats of Bread on: BBC Four 😎
One of the best tv series ever never gets old I’ve watched it over and over love the characters miss pat roach all the best to these two guys legends
The Mrs won’t allow me to watch it.
No way

Jimmy Nail was a fantastic Oz and Spender.
What a wonderful acting.
Well done, Jimmy!!
Spot on that! Still the best series ever!
Fabulous show. Iconic 👌
I grew up watching the show, and still catch one now and again on ITV 3. It's got to be the best show of the last 40 years.
Brilliant series.. It depicted the 80s for the working class.. Like Boys from the Black Stuff..

Watched AP loads of times. Love it. Also enjoyed crocodile shoes and spender. Wish Jimmy would reprise one of those.

Wayne was a Ronnie Wood lookalike 🤣
And Bomber..
We are all watching it in the evenings on itv 4 fantastic viewing it again,happy anniversary folks,forty years ,excellent band of lads and still popular.rip those members passed ,we will treasure the memories.
If you Google the cast list a hell of a lot of original cast are gone, some early on some more recently.
Loved watching Oz and the boys ❤
One of the best for sure absolutely love the series especially the first 2 .
I remember watching it when it was first on TV, I would’ve only been 4 or 5. Loved it. I was even bought the Joe Fagan 7” single of the theme tune “That’s Living Alright”
AWP and only fools. my 2 favorite shows. both stand the test of time
Jimmy Nail , Legend❤❤❤
It was a real quality TV series and is still funny to this day 😂 Jimmy Nail is a quality singer and actor 👍🏼
Brilliant loved it, poor old Barry every series he some how through no fault of his own would be arrested , sometimes due to Tatiana.
Oz and Barry my favourites
It's the best TV series iv ever seen-and my favourite series ever too 👍. I watched it back when it was first broadcast in the early to mid 80s-and I knew brickies who went over to work in Germany myself-so I knew these characters really existed. It was just completely real. 👍
Greatest tv show ever ,actually became a brickie✌️
One of the very best television series 👍
one of the greatest shows ever
Auf weidersehn pet is the finest piece of tv ever made. The acting, the characters and writing from the 2 geniuses that are dick clement and ian le frenis. I never get tired of watching the episodes again. Funny,sharp and entertaining 😁
Splendid show, whey aye man 🖖✨️😊
Jimmy hasn't changed a bit, which is incredible, considering it was filmed over 40 years ago !
Kids growing up in 1980s in england, many of our dads were builders, and that was probably last real generation of kids growing up in uk, where there dads were totally working class builders
Thats why it worked, it resonated so much with the white working class male, and what the last real generation of kids in 1980s to grow up as white working class
Really at end of cold war, white working class was being shoved off the status as the hero person.
White males who were builders in 1980s, was really the last real generation of males who could work hard.
Todays kids growing up just cannot work like that anymore, due to many factors

It was the show that made me want to become a writer ✍️
A fantastic show I still watch it on tv

There will never be a tv show like auf pet ever again now it's time less jimmy nail made the show along with Tim healy and Kevin Wheatley
Gary holton . brilliant character.
i agree
Great great English show. They don’t make em like that anymore for sure!
I wonder if Jimmy regrets his pre GOOD MUSIC career? He’ll always be Oz…ain’t no doubt! ( pardon the pun ) Top man!
Heh hehe- I see what you did there 👍
Best show ever made, the real reason it was popular ( imo) is you can see a little bit of yourself in every character.
Brilliant show great characters in it superb they don't make them like that anymore
Fantastic series 😅
The first time I saw people on TV like the ones I was growing up with around me.
That's what stood out to me and the second series was made down the road from were I live, Caunton and Thornley Manor was actual Caunton Hall.
My mate lived at the back of it and met the cast he got the scripts off them the they used and gave them to me when I was at college with him.
Best programme with two of the best writers out there clement & le Frenai they have a cv that is proven an all with porridge and the likely lads to name a few.
Close, it’s Beesthorpe Hall, Caunton. 😊
@@AufWiedersehenPet yeah that's right mate
I still pass it most days working if I have to go out to Chesterfield or that way on
Jimmy's looking great for 70.
Sad that many of the cast are no longer with us
Oh my goodness he is still gorgeous
I think when jimmy watches himself as oz hes embarrassed because that was thetrue Jimmy nail back then
Spender, and crocodile shoes, ohh ohh oh crocodile shoe's, she's lying
I like to think that when Pat Roach - Bomber passed away, somebody ended their eulogy with '..... Auf Wiedersehen Pat'.
same with gary holton who passed away during filming of serie's 2
Love Aufpet ❤
Jimmy lookin great we need him back on the tv bring back Spender :)
The best there will EVER be.
Shame Barry didn’t make to the reunion.
Went to the show, it was brilliant
One of the best characters ever oz
I cant be myself when im with you 👌
Love Jimmy singing live with the great guitarist Gary Moore.
On the album, we want Moore.
I was a bit Disappointed in not mentioning Gary Holton and his Music Career before Auf Wiedersen Pet Jimmy should include some of his songs with the Heavy Metal Kids and his solo songs
Gary was a force of Nature with the Heavy metal kids you have never seen such a live performance in your life
Quite a few Geordies are always on ITV.
When TV was great
We used too tape it in a Friday night on vhs with a remote attached too the vhs player 😂😂😂😂
Jimmy also an extra in get carter…. His very first role.
Brilliant prog nothing like it now best ever
Ray used to pass the collection plate at our church.
I believe that he was an altar boy too.
Awp,only fools and minder 3 best 3
Programs ever
"The geordie mafia" as the rest of the non geordie magnificent seven used to refer to em, great series, cast and story lines, and after working on sites for many years not so many that far fetched 😂
Auf Wiedersehen started in 1983 , so it was 40 years last year . This must be an old news clip .
This is from December 2023, we’re still celebrating 40 years.
Jimmy nail was in a series of minder as a gypsy and it was absolutely brilliant he is a fantastic actor as were the rest of the team they worked very well together very believable and always funny to see oz pottering about in his dirty white wye fronts... hilarious
Brilliant tv
Great clips that they didnt show.
The North East most accurately represents the best of real Englishness in the 21st century.
I went to ray Laidlaws wedding I was 3 at the time, gave his wife Leslie a horseshoe ❤have a photo TP, prove it
Wey hadaway man!
Haha. Google offered to translate this comment to English 😂
@@MobilePW And it translated it to: "It's not a man" !!
why not a new auf wiedersehen show ?....i remember sly stallone saying why he did all those rocky sequels , he said he wanted to document rocky,s whole life ....this is the same for this show....we seen them as kids , then middle age ...so whats happening now to this famous group ?
Clips cut out !
Yes for copyright reasons.
In the words of Wayne 'this doris interviewing Oz aint got a scooby has she'
Jimmy nail in eastenders. He needs to go back into acting
it was very entertaining not like the crap they want us to see for the last 20 years or so
If Ray is involved with the music for the proposed reunion, will it be "Nicely out of tune"?
Why do they not show the clips ?
Edited out for copyright.
Made other soaps look totally fake in my opinion,..sets were crap but looked real,some of the acting was crap but looked real,or was that down to good acting?,rather than actors just playing parts,...and story lines were good,....and the show was gripping,...so all in all 12 out of 10...
I personally believe, and it’s just my opinion, that the short lived bbc comedy parents of the band ruined his tv career😢
I hope Jimmy does not treat his fans as about as a welcome as an fart in an astronaut suit.
These presenters have no idea who Jimmy Nail is 🙄
They just got up and followed a script.
That's really sad.
Was shite 40year ago😂
Just admit you didn't get it.
You have to be a Geordie to appreciate it 😂
Such an iconic show just brilliant. They don’t make shows like this anymore mores the pity 🥲
Yep, with other iconic shows that first came out in the 80's like: Boon, Taggart, bergerac, Bread etc - been watching the Repeats of Bread on: BBC Four 😎
