Last Of The Summer Wine is a great show with very skilled actors. The writer Roy Clarke, is a brilliant writer, he also wrote "Open all Hours," with Arkwright in charge of a shop.
I remember the red double decker that was converted to a café as it was round the corner from my work in St Leonards. It had a small collection of pictures of it being used in the series on-board. Sad to see it go when it did, was very nice to have a bit of Summer Wine history nearby.
Thanks for the great information, love some of the old vehicles, some quite rare now. You work hard to gather your facts, thanks again love watching them all the best
Still loving your Stella work Leigh, 👏👏👏👏👏 keep em coming, cheers from a very chilly🥶🥶🥶new🥝🥝🥝zealand, where it’s beer o’clock of an evening 🍺🍺🍺🍺, cheers fellow, and other summer winos 🍻🍻🍻🥳🥳🥳
I'm realy enjoying these and recently been going to my mums and showing her these episodes and she loves them. Plus watching LOTSW on drama each night. Which made me buy the box set so I'll never miss out.
Loved every second of this excellent video, but hope you will add a part two to include more vehicles and fun moments. Foggy first appears on a bus and the show where Howard and Marina are caught build a greenhouse in there are gypsies, . . .
Pleased you enjoyed it David. You've got about a dozen other episodes to watch, that include Foggy's return and Howard and Marina's various escapades, plus another vehicle related video to come!
I am so Thrilled ! Remember "Oh Howard ..." when Wesley built the motor powered bed, actually you may have mentioned it in other most excellent videos. From USA, we love you !!!@@upstagedbyadog
Laughing to myself thinking about all the episodes that involved hearses used for more than their original purpose . Auntie Wainwright finally bought Tom & Smiler "better transportation" than the handcart - turns out it was an old slow hearse. Tom was horrified but Smiler liked the "little vase in the back that you can put a flower in."
Thanks Leigh I very much enjoyed this I seem to remember the lads digging out a car from a barn a one stage it has something to do with Wesley if I remember correctly, I think it might have been named The Loxley Lozenges,does this ring a bell with you ?.
You should do a episode of your favourite episodes, Getting Sam home, Serenade for tight jeans and metal detector, The kink in Foggys niblick, Who made a bit of a splash in Wales, and episodes mostly from the first eight or so series.
I might... but without mentioning it I must have covered all my favourites! ... and I have more videos in this series and I have to make a start on the next video project!
Seymour must've had a driving license in his youth, as he drove a three wheeler in First of the Summer Wine. I'm willing to believe he didn't renewed it after he started his school since he believed he'd be successful enough to hire his own driver.
Good point, he was just the right age to need to take a test, required from 1934, before then you needed a licence but there was no test! Driving was definitely below Seymour!

i've been watching LOTSW for several years now and have seen every episode at least twice. these characters have become my old friends.
So do I ❤🇩🇪🇬🇧💗
Thanks for another good one, keep em coming👍👍👍🙈
Amazing amount of research Leigh, I’m impressed how you discovered the make, model, and history of the many vehicles that appeared in the show.
Thanks - I didn't include all the details ... that might be too geeky!!
@@upstagedbyadog Too Geeky? You?
Never!
@@jayoneill1533 😆🤣
Brilliant thank you Leigh, I remember seeing Bringing Sam home back in the day and it remains one of my favourites. Best wishes. Gérard.

Than you Peter! I have always been interested in Transport, but mostly the aesthetics, not the mechanical bits! Ironic, as dad was a mechanic !

Hi, the 'Phantom's' steed looks like a twist n go 49cc Honda Express shopper bike. Love the presentations, many thanks : )
Hi Andy, thanks for that. 😀 I'm more familiar with sports bikes!! 🏍
I enjoy your videos. One correction though is the steam locomotive was built by the GWR not BR

Well remembered!
Connor and Graham was taken over by EYMS in 1996 IIRC. I believe their depot in Easington still stands though it isn't used as a bus depot any more
According to Mike Welton it was in February 1993, but the vehicle used in the show was sold by C&G before the takeover by East Yorks.
@@upstagedbyadog Apologies I had remembered wrong.
@@sameyers2670 there's no forfeit!

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, the Loxley Lozenge is in the "The Pegden Motorcade" video ua-cam.com/video/FwVdDUk1pNA/v-deo.html

You forgot the car Cleggy was hostage in. The episode with Mrs Jack Attercliffe
I didn't forget ... it's in a later video!
in the fist of the summer wine Seymour Utterthwaite has a licence ?
If that's correct - well spotted! There are quite a few anomalies like that between the two shows!
I remember that odd three wheeler Seymour drove. In LOTSW he apparently no longer posseses a licence.
if it was a 3 wheeler it could be be driven on a motor cycle licence.
