I grew up watching him as Blakey, on the buses wouldn’t have been the same without him ❤
Loved on the buses, great old fashioned humour and he was brilliant in Last of the Summer Wine ❤😂
Hi paul. I’ve visited he’s grave too as my parents are laid to rest in the same cemetery. Great work.
On the buses is a classic I remember Stephen Lewis in that programme Its so sad all the original cast members are no longer with us. Stephen Lewis thank you for the great memories
Grew up watching on the buses with my grandad. Loved the show. RIP Stephen ❤
He was brilliant in on the buses .. was one of my favourite programes ..thankyou paul
Can’t wait to see this one
Stephen Lewis was just a brilliant actor and so funny
RIP Stephen
Loved on the buses. My dad who passed away 6 years ago love it and got me into it. Great memories. Blakey was my favorite. Unbelievable actor. Rip! ❤
My mother past away in 2010 aged 88 yrs, she had been a clippy on the buses back in the 1950's. She lived in Australia having been a £10 POM back in the 60's and absolutely loved the series Especially Stephen Lewis as the Inspector. She always said it was very well researched and reminded her so much of those days on the busses. About a year before she past away I had bought her the boxed set on DVD of all 74 episodes. When ever I see anything about the series it reminds me of those days back in the 50's when I was a young lad.
ITV have over the years aired episodes and they are still as funny.
My neighbour was a clipper in the 50’s and 60’s having married an Irishman who drove buses in Birmingham.
Both sadly dead now
I am a 10 pound Pom 😃
@@JohnEdwardBerry my late mother🙏had many friends whom she met during her working life and in retirement had 3 best friends. One of whom was a £10 POM to Australia
This was the early 50’s but she was ‘homesick’ and returned to UK.
She married and had a family but died at the age of 52 of a massive heart attack in her kitchen
Many did return for whatever reason
😭😭🏴🏴❤️❤️🏴🏴🏴🙏🙏👍 👍
@joanne26 I was a wee Bern when I arrived in Sydney in 1964, my family stayed here until 1968, we moved back to England, we returned on 1986 where I've been ever since, but you can take the Pom out of England but you can't take England out of the Pom, I still mis it after being away for so long, but I do love Australia, it's a beautiful wonderful country, im so lucky to be living here.
Home sickness is the main reason for people returning to the UK. @@JohnEdwardBerry
Even his gravestone confirms his typecasting ! 😀
Blakey was always my all time favourite actor from On The Buses, what a legend! 👌 and also loved him in Last of the summer wine. He was born to be an actor. I always wished i could of got to meet him.
RIP Stephen Lewis 🕊🙏❤ gone BUT NEVER EVER FORGOTTEN!
Thank you for all the laughter.
Thank you for the upload Paul, much Appreciated 🙏
I remember meeting Mr Lewis on Wakefield Station some years back he cut a very forlorn figure. I told him how his character Blakey was a good part of my childhood. Its frightening really, I am now an old aged pensioner. He seemed a very humble person.
A very talented and funny man, I remember watching on the buses and loving it , it was my dads favourite. Loved the words on his headstone.
LOVE "On the busses". Always makes you smile. Still watch it a lot. Thank you Paul for going to see his grave. You're great !!
I loved Stephen as a child watching On The Buses. My daughter a millennial loves the 3 on the buses films and we watched them at Xmas, Easter etc.
This one was quite emotional for me as he reminds me a lot of my dad , what a packed cemetary and what an unusual memorial on your way in, always remember watching on the buses and how they used to give ' Blakey ' the runaround loved it.
Thanks Paul as usual learnt more about the man behind character .
St Patrick's Catholic cemetery is in Leytonstone London E11, there are a few other known people who are buried there.
Stephen Lewis last lived in a care home in Wanstead East London.
Everyone loved him when he was acting as Blakey on the buses.
Thank you for honouring this lovely man.
Great video.
"I hate you Butler!!!!!"
& my all time favourite.
"You Lecherous Beast, you!!!!"
😀😀😀😀😀
"Come on you's two,get that bus out!! 😄
I remember watching on the buses with my grandparents and parents, so much laughter filled our house

I actually met Stephen Lewis and Bob Grant at the back door of the New Theatre Cardiff . They were both in Panto there, I must've been 10 / 11 at the time. They both signed my Lions mask ( not sure what the Panto was , so long ago ) .They were great with us kids and gave his " i will have you Butler " catchphrase. Great childhood memories.
Saw Stephen in pantomime saw him afterwards got his autograph which I will treasure it forever, loving the videos
I loved Stephen Lewis in on the buses as Blakey he made the show and all so in last of the summer wine as smiler Thanks Paul 👍👍👍 well done
When I was a youngster I grow up watching on the bues and was my favorite ( I hate you butler ) thank you for visiting his resting place 👏👏👏👏🏴
I'm so glad you've done Stephen Lewis's resting place Paul.I love On The Buses,I watch the TV Series and the three movies regularly.Thanks for the info you gave on his career, and lastly what lovely words on his gravestone.
Love the new opening sequence, Paul. Stephen Lewis was always "Blakey" for me. It was great that such a talented, intelligent man would always entertain us by playing gormless characters. Thank you for the laughs, Stephen.. RIP.
What a beautiful tribute to old “Blakey” Thank you Paul For doing this one. My favourite saying of his was “I ate you Butler”
RIP Stephen 💙
That's made my day that has...get that bus out!!!
It's due to Blakey I learned (at a young age) the meaning of 'Lecherous". No one makes comedy like the British. Always has been, always will be.
Loved Stephen lewis he was brilliant funny in everything he was in so sad when he passed3
A marvellous actor who brought so much laughter. Started on OTB as a cast member and quickly became Co Star alongside Reg Varney.
I met stephen Lewis on a open top bus in Birmingham in the 1970 s a very warm friendly and funny man a lovely man who never forgot his roots RIP

He wrote the story sparrows can't sing, which was made into a film in 1963 starring Barbara Windsor.

Such a great man thanks for the video paul
I enjoy your clips keep up the good work.
Stephen lewis is a brilliant actor my favorite program he was in On the buses really enjoy that. He was really funny in that, one series on the buses he went to the zoo with the bus driver can't remember the driver's name, the lion opened door came on the bus and they heard something behind them when they look around they both screamed and went up stairs lion followed them, also that monkey drive the bus as well also that's funny. Great series. Great video Paul
I still watch On the Buses it was a favourite growing up & now
Stephen was a great character both in the series & in Last of the Summer Wine
