    The late, great Frankie Vaughan was handsome, suave, well dressed multi talented….dancer, singer, story teller and comedian who’s smile could light up a room. He was a faithful, devoted family man and charitable and encouraging always. Proud of his Jewish heritage as his gravestone shows and a faithful supporter of Israel, the Jewish State. Shalom and RIP Frankie.

    His charity work amongst boys clubs and retired show business people was legendary. 1961 I was living as a young teenager In Blackpool when he was appearing at local theatre for the summer. My father couldn't attend so I went to see him with my mother and a young woman work colleague of hers. I was more into pop singers but his performance was well and truly for the ladies. We were in a private box and from where I sat I could almost touch him. A wonderful man who's death was quite tragic

We met him at the stage door, he shook hands with my mum and kissed her cheek (swoon swoon) and signed this small autograph book which I had. He had the most wonderful smile and eyes.

    I enjoyed watching him and listening to him singing on tv when I was younger, but I’m quite moved to hear of what he did with those four gangs in Glasgow-surprised they would listen to ANYONE intruding their world, but then I read the comments made by other viewers of this tribute video, and have tears reading how he changed the lives of some youngsters..giving them a chance,something to do, go to, and relieve boredom, which I believe is the problem with a lot of ,sadly, todays knife wielding youngsters. If Frankie were still here I’m sure he would have done his best to help there too, but to read of grown men now, who still feel gratitude after all these years warms my heart.
    Thankyou Frankie, and your lovely wife Stella who sounds to have been your staunch supporter and love of your life. rIp 💕🙏🙋‍♀️🦋💐💕

    Another absolutely brilliant video. So well presented and everything so well researched down to the smallest detail. Being born in 1963 , I was a child watching him on telly. He was top of his game during that time and appeared many times on various showtime programmes. He was always immaculately dressed and nothing out of place. He was such a good looking man and had a really nice way with him. He was so cool and layed back when he was performing and he certainly could sing a good tune. I really enjoyed watching this.

    When I was young around 11 we had every year on the Cricket we had someone come and perform,
    and Frank came and sang, it was a shame I only got to see him going to his car being chaced by a Lady fan with long hair, he stopped turned around and gave her his Autogramm and a kiss on the cheek, the Lady turned around and she was in her 60s, I must say she was fast, that was the first and last time, thats funny it's just brought back a memory my hair dresser was almost the double to Frank, thanks for your Videos keep up the good work.

      Hello John, You are a prime example of what really makes me channel feel rewarding for me to remember such a wonderful moment when Frankie has been so kind to this lady and you to notice it is so special. It's a moment in time, but it reflected the way that he thought it was kind and a massive. Thank you for writing this 🙏 I'm welling up and that's the truth. I hope I see you again on the channel. Thank you, Alan

    You certainly do your research thoroughly, always delivered with integrity and an honesty which shines through everytime, the respect you show is to be commended, by enlarge most people wouldn't know the other side of many celebrities so it's great you can educate those who have an interest...well done!

      Hi Asbury I find it a real pleasure the bit before the video because I usually try to watch at least two documentaries and then you get to know what the people are liking, the people around them, thought, etc. And then it allows me to be able to feel I know the person and do the video with feeling. But I appreciate your comments and I do genuinely enjoy it. If people do that's great! Thank you so much! You've spared me on Best Alan

    I grew up in a suburb of Liverpool and attended a boys club that was opened by Frankie.
    His association with the club was always respected by the youngsters that passed through the club.

    My Gran had an old wind-up gramophone. One of her favourites was Frankie and the Kaye Sisters with 'Gotta Have Something In The Bank, Frank'. I was allowed to wind the gramophone, sometimes with disastrous results (think Chipmunks). I just found the song on UA-cam and was transported back to the days when I had my whole life in front of me. Thank you.

    Another good tribute Alan, I think he was UK, s version of Dean Martin.. He was a lovely man, and singer, I remember watching him with my dad when I was young on a Sunday evening.

      Hi Maureen its true, there was a lot of similarities. Won't they accept? You didn't go on about drinking all the time but they had the same style. I've actually seen Dean Martin's in las Vegas many years ago in the same place as Marilyn Monroe and Billy wilder. See you again soon I hope Alan

    I remember back in the very late 60s early 70s working as an overnight garage forecourt attendant on Newport Pagnell services on the M1 from time to time Frankie would bring his Bentley around the back of my little Portakabin with his wife would come in and have a coffee with me and a bite to eat rather than going to the services he was such a nice man he must’ve come in maybe 10 or a dozen times

      Hello Greg, what a fantastic memory for you. You met him on numerous occasions. It's always so lovely when somebody has personally known the subject of the film to some degree and you stand out having met him quite a few times. It's nice to hear that he was just nice a guy as everybody else says. Very interesting and thank you for the comment. Regards Alan
