Nowadays people wouldn't bat an eyelid at her choice of career, she was definitely ahead of her time 💕
Oh just some to Northern Ireland and announce your a pornstar and you'll be front page of the local paper being called a pervert.
Yeah plenty of reprobates .
I grew up as a spotty teenager enjoying Mary's content ( boys will be boys) and I am sure there will be the usual people out there who will criticize her for the way she earned a living, but I feel she had a kind heart and she did what she did for the right reasons particularly looking after her mum, she was without doubt a vulnerable person who had a tough life and as is often the case in life unscrupulous people took advantage of her, I also think she stood for what she believed in and was a fighter, I think the establishment were out to get her, the police in particular and in the end she couldn't deal with it all. Rip Mary, bless you. xxxx
May I be the first to criticise?

David Sullivan was very careful not to have photos of his dick all over magazines. He encouraged her into things he would never do himself which is how you know somebody is manipulative.
Mary was very beautiful and her lifestyle was hers to choose which was fine. The manipulative men in her life deserve most of the blame for Mary's demise. A hypocritical society also held a lot of blame. Many women in the 60's appeared nude in movies but because it was 'artful' that was OK apparently.
Many young adolescent guys in particular appreciated finding a discarded magazine containing Mary, helping many through teenage years. She was ahead of her time in her bravery but suffered greatly from the hypocrisy of society. The prudish elements of society set out to destroy her, the 2 faced politicians who used her services did the same, allegedly including Harold Wilson, then Prime Minister, the bent coppers charging her protection money for her sex shop also ended up doing the same and for what, choosing to do with her own body that which was her right to do.
Sadly, when someone becomes a commodity, there is always a vile 'businessman' seeking to exploit that commodity. Beautiful Lady gone far too soon.
I'm old enough to remember her from the 70's. As a young man I knew her for all the 'young man' reasons, lol But as an adult I watched the tv documentary about her life, she really was a trail blazer, yes she had a chequered life but I'd encourage folk to watch the tv doc and find out more about Mary. She was a human being and certainly didn't deserve the trouble she attracted from the likes of Mary Whitehouse and indeed the Police. The Harold Wilson connection is very interesting too. RIP Mary Millington.
Really?
But what if she'd been a member of your family?
@@steffanhoffmann8937 I'm not sure what you mean exactly ? Are you asking if I'd be proud of her ? Or maybe disown her for what she was ? I can't honestly answer that as she wasn't a member of my family. We all make choices in life, none of us are perfect.
Wasn't the truth sad.
Yes I remember her in the 1970s. I must say that her movies and her career were a bit lurid in that era but the movies were not explicit , in fact in some ways boring and tame by modern standards. Mary was a beautiful woman , tragic unhappy life.
@@steffanhoffmann8937 Get a life you sad article , Mary was well loved and not at all boring like you .........
What a fantastic lady who stood up for what she believed in. She is remembered for her beauty & compassion. She led a short, somewhat sad, but never boring life.
RIP Mary Millington🌠
Interesting very H
I feel you could be right I think Diana would love to be around people more so her family. We will never know if Diana is in this beautiful church or not until it would be confirmed by her brother or the prince of wales her son. If Diana is layed to rest in this church then she is in such a beautiful place and not on her own. 👍👍🙏🏻🙏🏻R. I. P. Diana 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥲
Alternatively she is remembered for good head.
Laid down you mean
Thank you for this Paul. A victim of circumstance indeed, poor girl. I am glad the church no longer buries suicides out side the graveyard as they used to. R I P Mary.
Thank you for that Paul. You presented a difficult story beautifully and gently. I felt so very sorry for her and wished that the "establishment" had left her alone. It would have also been good for her to have someone to confide in, someone who she could trust not to exploit her.
Great stuff! I'm a fan and stop by Mary's grave regular and make sure it all looks nice as it can be for any other fans and visitors.
At one time it was overgrown and at risk of dissapearing under the grass like the stone next to it. I uncovered it to what you see now. Thanks for visiting Mary. 👍
Thanks David. It nice to see someone who cares. Mary deserved so much better in life. RIP
Thanks Mary, you were wonderful, you kept my spirits up through 3 tours in Northern Ireland and my service in the Army RIP girl
Oh this was such a sad story.I have never heard of this lady,she led a very interesting life in her adult years.She never deserved to be treated like she did by the police,and in her early years it was so sad to hear that she was bullied when she was in school and a teenager.She sounded like a lost soul bless her,hopefully she is at peace with her mum in heaven.Thankyou Paul,this was very interesting and that church was lovely.❤️❤️❤️
Susan Lennard I agree whole Heartly with everything you wrote here well said. Mary Millington as was by stage name was trying to find her life and care for mum when society were trying to demoralize her for her morality and the industry life, she worked in. rip. Mary Ruth Maxted (née Quilter)
I remember seeing pics of her in British adult magazines in the 70's. Didn't realize she had died so young- what a tragic lies. I don't regard her as a heroine but as a victim & I regard the who made money from her as pimps. She was a lovely looking girl. No one would wish this type of life for a sister, daughter, niece or grand daughter. May she rest in peace.
i'm a man of a certain age and as a kid in the 70s remember her only too well courtesy of magazines found in bushes
What we're you doing in the bushes?!!!
@@nikmason6873 as a kid in the 80s when we were out playing we would always find magazines like that in bushes just left there
@@bigend07 OK.
Pages were probably stuck together 😆
That was so true in the UK 😂
Almost 50k that's brilliant paul, your channel will continue to grow, you deserve all the success.
Thank you as always Tayeeb 🙏
@@UnusualThings1 Have you ever done Richard briers I do love him in the good life and ever decreasing circles I still watch it today put it in the evenings like last night . I know where he's resting place is with his wife the cemetery but nothing more .
@@nicolasimpkins3640 good idea. I really liked him too👍
I agree. Paul seems a v nice genuine bloke too. Best of luck to him !
You are a very kindhearted man and it came through clearly when you were talking about Mary. She is at peace now. 🌸
Bless her I had never heard heard of her before, she certainly had a unfortunate time of police harassment especially when she was struggling with mental illness. And she nursed her mum for ten years. And yes Paul you are so right Mary needed to pay for her mums care what a wonderful person she was. And that industry paid well I definitely don't blame her for that. Good for her I say. Thank you Paul for yet another remembrance so very nicely done. You are undoubtedly the very best.
I had a couple of magazines with her in that I kept hidden in my camp in the woods when I was about ten years old, gutted when someone nicked em!! She was my favourite then and is still my favourite now 45 years or so later. RIP Mary
Outstanding as always paul. I had no idea she took her own life that is so very sad .RIP Mary. Thanks paul 👍
She had a tough start in life. So sad that she took her own life when she was so young. Thanks for making a respectful video, as always.
R.i.p Mary people do what they have to do great video Paul many thanks for sharing with us 👍 👍
Great episode, Mary was hounded to an early death but she will always be remembered as a fighter for freedom of speech R.I.P.
You summed her up very well. I didn't know she took her own life so young. With hindsight it seems she took the wrong direction in life probably a lack of parental support which is often the case. Great looking girl. A sad story with taking your own life included. Thanks for the video 👍
Thank you Paul, for once again doing an honest and respectful grave visit.. I’ve been to Mary’s grave a couple of times, and saw her classic film .. Come play with me.. at the Moulin cinema in Soho. I’ve spoken to Simon Sheridan who did a film of her life called Respectable,, and we both agreed she was a really lovely girl caught up in a witch hunt because of her choice of work.. Such a sad story of a really beautiful girl with an inner and outer beauty.. Rest in peace Mary… Thanks again Paul..
Respectable, what a porn actress,? oh yeah
Another brilliant video thanks Paul. Looking forward to seeing the next one.
What a beautiful little church ⛪️ 💕
Very interesting background information about Mary, I have never heard before. I did meet her once at a photo shot. She was the most lovely person. So petit . RIP Mary . You did not deserve to be driven to take your own life .
How the UK media vilified her even to the grave claiming undertakers would not touch her body as they (media)decided she was so diseased . As usual a "good headline" to the end and beyond . RIP Mary
This was a really sad one, the reason why she was hounded to death was she probably threatened if she named names about the sordid goings on of certain high profile individuals, hypocrites the lot of them. didn't realise she was so short she always came across as really tall in her photographs. so sad she was forced into taking her own life. makes you wonder if she did take her own life under the circumstances. Thanks for this Paul, you do these with respect and passion. well done mate.
If you threaten to expose the establishment then there is a price to pay. We only have to look at what's been going on with elite level child abuse and the cover ups there.
@@Viator19 we might as well have the mafia running the country
We have. ! This lot make the krays look like choir boys
I'm not old enough to remember her. What a sad story. The graveyards you visit are so pretty. the view are fantastic.
I’d honestly never heard of her before, but it’s always interesting to learn about new people who lived interesting lives. She sounds like a good woman, caring for her mother and standing up for her beliefs, it’s a shame things didn’t work out better for her.
Very well done on a great, informative and respectable video about Mary's life and her sad death.
She was a British icon, so sad she died so young, this is a wonderfull tribute, I just subbed for your Halloween video of Peter, well done on these amazing tributes 😊👍
Icon? Porn actress you mean
How interesting and what a beautiful church and graveyard. I had never heard of her but yes it looks like she had a v troubled life. How sad she died so young too. Respectfully covered as usual Paul. RIP Mary 🙏🏼
Thank you for featuring Mary.
Yes shows how much other people's actions ruin it for others to the brink of ending their life that's very sad . Rip Mary and speaking up for the animals too .x
You clown .
I don't recall her at all and I'm in my late 60s. Story nicely covered though and the church was lovely inside. Thank you xx
Respectfully done as Always Paul xxx
A good one about Mary,Paul,I'd never heared of her,but from what you said about she had a very hard life,and was judged by people because of what she did,I say her choice,we all choose our path in life,and shouldn't be judged for it,RIP MARY ❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️respect shown as usual Paul thank you 😊 stay safe and thank you 😊 xxxx
Hard life in a way she enjoyed , she did what she wanted to do and wasn’t forced as some people will tell us, many people will tell they wanted to help her with her problems…
Thanks Paul, such a sad story.
Mary spent such a long time looking after her sick mum maybe tells
the true story of the real Mary Millington .
..and the fact she raised money for the PDSA. Perhaps with a better start in life she would have taken a very different path.
@@ChoppingtonOtter I think you could br right. 👍
I've read about this before, interesting & sad story.
Thanks.
A lovely tribute to a lovely lady.
Is there any chance you can find the resting place of 1960's/70's actor Allan Cuthbertson? He died in 1987 and lived at Surbiton , London, but all searches for his grave have come up blank. months and months of searching have been fruitless. A real mystery.
I have not heard of Mary Millington. But I would imagine she was a feisty lady, certainly very pretty. How terrible to have to go through what she did, and because of this she ends her own life at a young age. What a shame there was no evidence of visitors to the grave. Thanks Paul 💞
Such a sad story towards the end of her life. Thanks for sharing this Paul
SUCH A SAD STORY PAUL
GLAD YOU TOLD US ABOUT HER
ALTHOUGH I NEVER HEARD OF HER
MAY SHE REST IN PEACE NOW
R I P MARY 🥀
Excellent presentation again Paul, I was around at this time (in my 20s) but cant remember this very troubled and pressured young woman hassled by society and persecuted by the various enforcement people...peace at last although yet another young life ended way to soon..respect Paul till the next one..
It's nice that you visit,final resting places & also give out the history of persons we're curious about .Well done;you serve an important link!
Intriguing 👍 such a life cut ✂️ short ..bless you Mary ❤️
Another great video Paul. I really liked this particular cemetery, beautiful.
I also very much liked the old church, especially the ornate, well I think they're ornate lol, steel hand railings leading up to the main door.
Although I'm not a very religious person, I find old churches so peaceful. It's the calmness that encapsulates the dwelling. Ideal if one is wanting to escape a crappy day for a minute or two.
Like Mary Millington, I to suffer from depression, and on one occasion in my life i came close to cashing in my one way ticket to the big sky, but fortunately I coward out.
Sad to see ppl leave this world due to extreme stresses of life.
This video touched me more than any other so far.
And I'm sorry that at times i'm sharing so much on your comment section. Thing is I really don't have anyone that I feel comfortable enough to share these thoughts, not that I would anyway as I'm that type of person who keeps all that locked in, but for whatever reason I can open up and talk about stuff on your channel. Maybe it's the anonymity of it. Be heard but not seen.
In any case I find doing so cathartic for me. It helps.
Thanks again Paul. Dig your sense of humor..keep em smiling.
-Jerry
Another fantastic video Paul thank you for all the hard work you put in. And looking forward to the next video x
I remember, as a young soldier stationed in Germany during the late 70s, listening one morning to BFBS radio. It was the 'Rick Lunt show', (Patrick Lunt) the flagship show of the station. He interviewed her. I had no idea who she was at the time. She went into explicit detail about two items that she always kept in her handbag and where she would place these items, I couldn't believe what I was hearing on a live radio show.
that was a great video of a decent woman and as usual with dignety
She was the same height as me, 4ft 11. Bless her. I vaguely remember her and her death being in the news.
Pleased you actually were able to visit the church this time, Paul. Well done. 👍😃
My Nan was 4'6"
Tragic story Paul. I remember the name but not the face. What a beautiful Church and graveyard, typically English. I also loved the brick and red tile house next to the Church, probably the vicarage.
Hi Paul lovely church looking forward to the next video 👍👌
I got the DVD Respectable 'The Mary Millington Story'. 👍🏽 It's sill available on DVD now (2022).
Hi Paul..I don’t remember this lady but it’s so heartbreaking and very sad to think how she was treated ..So young as well …So respectfully done ..Thankyou Paul I really enjoy your videos..I’m so glad that you eventually got in to a church…I have the same problem doing my genealogy …Best wishes 👍
Although I have never heard of her, once again Paul you made her life sound interesting. What a lovely church ⛪ thanks Paul for another interesting video ❤
Died so young
Another great video has always Paul 👍
god bless Mary she made many a young man happy
i can remember Mary like yesterday
but did not know much about her
a great video made with compassion
thanks and all the best
Lovely video Paul as always, i showed a lot of Marys films in the 70s and 80s when i was a Cinema Projectionist they all did excellent business very much like the Confessions Films did at the time, and yes a record run of nearly 4 years for her film "Come Play With Me" her biggest success at the CLASSIC Moulin Cinema Soho London. I feel a lot of people at the top made a lot of money out of Mary this is how it goes sometimes in the Entertainment industry. Thanks for all the information what a sad life she had Bless her now at peace out of this mad world! - Thanks Paul always enjoy your very intersting videos - Stay Safe. - Mark
Thanks Mark… 🙏
Very well done brilliant video Eddie thank you👍👍👍👍👍
Great show Paul enjoyed lt nice one 👍 thanks BRIAN UPTON
Hi once again a great video. You truly do give everyone you cover the greatest of respects. I googled Mary Maxted and found that she starred in On The Buses playing Irises mother. The episode is called Private Hire. Best wishes and keep up the great work. Matt
So much empathy..So sad bless her she must have been beside herself. Thanks for telling her story. You are a shinning light for our lost ones..Thanks dawn
There is a Mary Millington special edition box set of her films which came out. Saw her documentary on TV. Died young very sad r.i.p 😔
A lady who lived life to the max. No one could ever deny her that. Intriguing vid, Paul. 👍
I never knew who she was before the video thanks for sharing and doing the video a sad end ,she went through a lot .
So interesting to hear thank you ,such a sad life she had RIP Mary xx
Enjoyed as Always.
I Remember her.
God rest her soul.
Thank you Paul.
I had never heard of this lady. What a sad life. RIP.
She was excellent viewing whilst on active service in Northern Ireland for this Mary Millington l say thank-you and Rest in Peace
Another well filmed and produced film as always.
I appreciate your commentary and respect ... Thankyou
I always enjoy watching your videos. If you stumble over your words... You just go back to what you're talking about, and carry on. Down to earth, and to the point in your thoughts. Keep up the great work.
Cheers 🙏
R.I.P Mary….great piece and very well done..
Hi Paul just subscribed to your channel I'm addicted lol awesome 👍 just love your work on covering these people lives ' the respect you show,if people were more like this we would live in a better world,I was extremely touched by the fanny Adams,so so sad I'm looking things up now more than ever now so thanks again for your dedication, blessings to you!!!!
Thank you Shaz, appreciate that. Hope you continue to enjoy all the previous videos too. 🙏
Very nicely done with respect as always
Very good video Paul, she had a very sad life. There’s a excellent documentary I’d highly on her on the Together tv channel Sky 170
Brilliant video again Paul. Your videos are very informative you show so much respect in your videos..
Every one has a story. And you have a big heart telling them god bless you. You will be fit all the walking exorcise you get. Keep it up. My gran was the same she while I was in the RAF went to every cemetery I was based near in many countries as well. She died at 96. Was delivering babies in her eighty’s
Good show as allways paul good interesting viewing and well documented..
I'm old enough to remember her. What a shame! She was years ahead of her time. Today, no one would bat and eyelid, but way back then, "Well I never", the prides would say. Well, in private, they would never admit to their own feelings. Would they? She was dragged before awful news headlines as a wrong person. But no! She was a human being like the rest of us. Some folk pretend to be whiter than white. Hmmmm? God bless you Mary,
Thank you For This Insight( Watched A Great Documentary) Recently On Mary Millington GRH) Very Very Sad 😢🎉
Hi Paul thanks for another interesting in depth explanation of the late Mary Millington 👍
Brilliant as always Paul, well done.
The hypocrisy and ironies of society have not been lost on me. I truly believe she was what one would consider to be a good person! She was paying the police for protection, yet getting raided in spite of this.
I've heard her name but didn't know all this about her. What a shame at such a young age and so quickly after her mum poor lady. RIP Mary, I hope you have finally found peace.
Never heard of this woman but you do a good job mate another brilliant wee documentary :)
Another great video 👍
Lovely church sad end for Mary nice of you to tell her story loved her Mother a kind daughter if she had a chance in life it could have been so different my she rest in peace thanks for your visit today sending you best wishes for the new year and all watching Marie Dublin Ireland
Thanks Paul for all your videos you put so much time in bringing them to us looking forward to seeing more of the lovely places you visit lots of success in the future Marie Dublin Ireland
Hi Paul,
Thank you.
I guess Mary's life reflects that of many, that started life struggling from the outset.
She had to survive on those few opportunities that came her way.
Without perhaps realising it at the time she found injustice and tried to right these wrongs.
Perhaps if she lived longer she would have seen justice finally reward her.
Lovely church inside , keep trying the door's, we appreciate it.
Excellent
Hi Paul,love your work. You are such a natural in front of the camera. When you do a grave was thinking you could also do a little story of who is at rest in the next grave (would that be possible....just a thought ) love your channel
Hi, thank you for watching and for your comment….. The problem with that is that I would arrive to do my filming, I would then have to look at the grave next to it go and do loads of research I wouldn’t then be able to come back and Film that due to logistics and travelling. Also, I have to be mindful of what people will watch. Thank you for your suggestion though. 🙏
Very respectfully done. xx SF
I have just stumbled onto your channel by a very lucky coincidence. I also love british comedy and graveyards. Some people may think thats weird, but hey.
I have now fell into a youtube black hole that threatens my ability to get up for work tomorrow.
I'm just wondering if you could possibly try and find and do a vid on Rik Mayalls grave. I;m sure you know him, and you seem to be a lot closer in the UK than I am.
Loving your channel, keep up the good work.
Thank you for watching…… sadly Rik Mayall is buried on a family farm and there is no access to it.
This was a fascinating life story and full of irony. Mary lived a good life despite the circumstances and loved and tried so hard to care for her Mum. Wonderful courageous woman being a woman in the 70's was full of dangers. Liberation for women was an illusion really!
Gorgeous cemetery. Ty for sharing. Subbed
Very interesting, would have been nice to have left a small bunch of flowers 💐
Another fantastic video Paul thank for for the hard work you put into making these videos I do have an idea for a future video for your crime files to visit the grave of Derek Bentley the lad who was wrongly convicted hanged for the murder of a police officer
He’s already on my list of future ones cheers Joshua. 🙏
Very good video as usual I follow you you’re a very nice person Eddie UK I say that because I’ve just come back from Italy after many years and other countries before but you’re so sincere in what you do thank you
Yes, very interesting. I always find past infamous and famous peoples autobiographies really interesting. She had a very sad life. I take my hat off to her for nursing her Mother for 10 years, anyone who has to look after an elderly parent will know its bloody hard work. She done what she had to do at the time, so fair play to her and was probably a lovely person to be around. God bless and I'm sure she will be blessed in heaven. Don't judge unless you yourself want to be judged. Their ain't a man on this planet that hasn't enjoyed a video naughty. Lol
Thanks Paul for the video once again
It's so sad when someone takes their own life I know exactly how they feel. Because I have mental health problems myself and have spent many times in hospital from the age of 14. I am now 56 years old and most days for me are a real struggle. And all this because of something terrible happened to me when I was just 6 years old.
Stay strong Nick, and talk to the right people if you can. 🙏
Me 2 nick. Repeated childhood trauma ruined my life. Amazing what trauma does
@@Tracey..H Trauma is a terrible thing Try and keep positive.
Such a tough and sad life! May she finally Rest In Peace 🙏🏻
She lived the high life don't worry 😂
