I met him & his wife in Manchester Press club in the early 90s. He gave me his autograph. Very nice man. So young to die. Respectful video. Thank you. RIP.❤
What a shame that nobody trims those bushes. It Ain’t Half Hot was a favourite in our house when I was a kid. 50 is no age, life is fleeting. A good one Paul,
Looking at him I think that Was a showbiz age!
Kenneth's daughter in law messaged me and said that William & Sheila loved the video and how accurate you was and they will be down soon to trim that bush.
They thank you for your caring and respectful approach in your videos
Thank you so much for letting me know. I really appreciate that and it’s lovely to hear. Please send them my thanks 🙏 and thank you too.
he was a brilliant actor. I remember him well playing mike in only fools
And in It Ain’t Half Hot Mum .
Please someone trim those trees on his grave, what an amazing headstone true to his passion in life, acting.
Only fools was a better series for having him in it and one of the best series ever made.
Life is to short, so make sure you tell your loved ones how much you love them each and every day.
Paul, thank you for your respectful way of showing your audience these amazing graves.
I like the ending the way you always say thanks as you touch the headstones, well deserved respect
for the entertainment artists have given us all....nice touch Paul
I was telling my daughter the exact same. To watch him, and he allways touches the head stone and says thank you !! Nice touch with heaps of respect. 🌷
Can not wait for this one .... only fools and horses has a special place in my Heart for a number of reasons .
So sad to see a resting place unkept. Remember him well as an actor Rest in peace
What an amazing headstone my past time is going looking at old graves . It's strangly relaxing 😌
Glad to hear that the bush will be trimmed as it’s a really lovely headstone. Good actor. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This pops up just as I'm watching good old Only Fools and Horses! Looking forward as always.
Same here! Only Fools marathon today 👍🏻

@@leeludlowart237 Oh me too! Got the boxset and I love that episode! Obviously got to love Del Boy falling through the bar episode too but yeah, love them all.
@@leeludlowart237 I've got Miami Twice part 1 on at the moment!
What a nice tribute to Kenneth ! Forgot he was in “It ain’t half hot mum’, he was a great character in Only Fools too,my favourite comedy of all time 😊Tragic that he was taken so young in life. So true what you say about family, you never know what’s around the corner. Thanks for sharing Paul.
Hi Paul, Thanks for another great video, Kenneth was a great actor. Can't believe its been 21 years since he passed. God love him taken too soon.
I loved him in only fools a comedy natural and brilliant actor RIP Kenneth
Enjoy everyday I’m 51 time flies , make the most of everyday
Yet another great find, dearly missed by his family I bet.
We've got some half price cracked ice, miles and miles of carpet tiles, TVs, deep freeze and David Bowie LP's 🎶
I remember watching only fools and horses growing up Kenneth was a brilliant actor .
Looking forward to this. Absolutely love Only Fools and Horses! Would just like to say that I could watch your videos all day, your gorgeous 😍
🥰
Great actor,beautiful grave.Thankyou for sharing Ken's grave respectfully done.
Your words after visiting Ken McDonald's grave resonated with me quite strongly. So true that you must make the most of each day and love those close to you.
A men
Another respectful and profound video,Paul.It is a sobering thought that beneath everyone of those graves,there was a person who lived a life,who had hopes,dreams and loved ones.
Thanks Paul 😊 x
You are so right about what you said. I nearly lost my life age 50 to a rare form of leukaemia in 2018. It's made me look at things very differently. This actor left us far too soon. A real shame 😔
So sorry to hear that and I hope things are better for you now. 🙏
@@UnusualThings1 I am absolutely fine, thank you. I refused to leave my family and fought like crazy. I am very lucky to be here. 👍😁
After 21 years I'm still shocked he passed away. He was a legend in Only Fools. RIP Kenneth McDonald.
Another Class Video my friend , He was a diamond in only fools and Horses , Sadly missed and left us all at such a young age 😢
Remember him living in nearby Hampton,
Lovely cemetery at shacklegate Lane,
He was in the best British comedy ever
R.i.p
I came across the other day because I live in Devon
Admiral Nelsons wife buried not to far from where I live.... be good to hear about this one.. x
What a mess how can thay live it like that I never know pure soul he worked hard for a messer grave
Wise words my friend lovely video very respectfully as always 👍
Thankyou Paul , you’re such a lovely guy and it’s a absolute pleasure watching you and you are so respectful in what you do ,much love as always xxx
Great video on a great actor loved It Ain't Half Hot Mum and Only Fools and Horses both classics never to be repeated and to be associated with either let alone with both is a real achievement, liked the philosophical thoughts very true life owes you nothing and it not till you get way passed you prime that you start to appreciate the time you got but the young think they are bulletproof 😄and why not, make the most of it young padawans may the force be with you.
Hi Paul, hope your keeping well 👍
Yet again another great video. Definitely make the most of your loved ones, you never know when your numbers up!
Love your videos mate, keep them coming👍💯
I did t even know he had passed bless him Ill. Be watching xx i commented on another of your visits thaat id like. To see freddy mercury plaque but one of the other sites say its been stolen.
Loved Kenneth Macdonald's video, I wish I lived closer to some of these graveyards, they're all a long drive from Bristol😔
Ken was brilliant as Mike. Do many great memories of this lovely man. Thanks for sharing.
I loved this actor especially as Mike in OFAH. R.I.P ❤️
I’ve got a great idea for you. Please would you visit some war heroes graves (all war veterans are heroes) but I think you will really touch a nerve with your subscribers if you were to locate some Victoria / George cross recipients and tell us their harrowing stories of suffering and sacrifice for the freedoms we all have today. It would be so interesting and very moving. Who agrees?
They're not celebrities. No thanks
Another great video in another great cemetery.Another cemetery that we visit on a regular basis as my friends family are all buried there.Next time we are there we will pay our respects to kenneth and thank him for all the laughs he gave us in life. Another person buried there is Art Wood and although he may be not so well known to some he does have a very very famous brother.Ronnie Wood of the RollingStones.When his brother died he was touring in America and at one point they thought the stones would have to cancal some of there dates so he could be with his family. Love Love all your videos Im a great fan .
Loved him as Mike in only fools and horses. Another great Video Paul ☺️
Wow. Watching this, I'm just 3 days older than ken was when he passed. Makes you stop and think. Loved him in only fools. Rest in peace old boy and thanks for the laughs.
Catching up now
What a brilliant actor, another class & respectful video mate 👌👍
Brilliant as always Paul 👌 👏 👍
Thanks for another great video Paul , Kenneth was a fantastic actor . Always remember him on the OFAHorses episode “ Jolly boys outing “ .
You made my day I remember Kenneth so well in only fools an it sint half hot mom both spectacular comedies once again loving an respectful bless you 👍❤🤳👍🙌👌👌🙌
You make death appear calming and joyous. Channel 4 need to commission a series with you🙏🏽🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks for the laughter...rest in peace
Brilliant actor, R I P Kenneth 👍
Another well presented video Paul. Well done. I used to work in Turnham Green, near Chiswick, and opposite was a park with tennis courts, and most mornings, during nice weather, Ken would play tennis with a friend. He would often chat either before or after playing. A lovely guy. As you say, sadly taken too soon. R.I.P Ken 🙏🏼
Exactly, as my Dad once said famous people just more known and a more expensive coffin. Rich or poor we all going to the same place.
Had the pleasure of meeting him in 1987 in Teddington. I was an apprentice carpenter on a job in the high street. He knew the builder and came to have a chat. He said they had the episode of Only Fools and horses 'Jolly boys outing' coming up to film plus he was in a Fox's biscuit advert. Other than that work seemed to be thin on the ground. Quite common for many actors. He was a lovely man to talk to. His builder friend supplied him with some materials he needed for a job I seem to recollect. Such a sad loss at a young age
Thanks for the bio,was an interesting watch,and o always look forward to them words "I think we found it " 🙂
Great video well worded paul I love your favourite saying saying which they should make has your catchphrase (guess what I think I've found it ) very good Kenneth macdonald the legend died like so many greats to young love to know were he was born in manchester has I'm from Manchester dosent tell you when you google it anyway RIP Kenneth great video thanks

Massive fan of only fools and horses and it ain't half hot mum
I love the kindness and humility you show in your videos.
Thank you for all the hard work you put in to making these videos, you always introduce the departed with a beautiful dedication to their lives.
Very good actor. Taken far too early at 50. That's no age. Poignant video. Thanks Paul
Sound like rooks to me Paul lol Great video thankyou xx
Another great video Paul, thank you. Best wishes
You did us proud again with a thought proking video.
Ken was a great actor and I totally forgot he was in Brush stokes , that was another great series 👍
Interesting and respectfully done. I’m new to your channel. I knew he’d passed, I just didn’t realise how young he was. So sad for his family.
Great research..brought back many memories of my youth..❤️ loved watching it ain't half hot with my grandparents.Grandad spent time in India during the war..he laughed and told me stories ..my GT uncle RAS Pagani was the only European to escape from the infamous ‘Death Railway’, where he endured brutal torture at the hands of the Japanese military.To date there are three books about him
I remember him in only fools and horses but didn't realise it was him in ain't half hot so thanks for that info. Well informed as usual Paul
loved watching it ain't half hot mum as a child wow l didn't know he went so young such a great actor in all his roles r.i.p kenneth.
Great video he was a fantastic actor and Only fools and horses it was the best sitcom ever ❤️
I like to see Winsor Davies and Donald Sinden pay tribute these two great actors! what a nice tribute to Kenneth .Thank you
Nice video Paul well done 👍 and what a stunning headstone ❤ he was great loved him in only fools and horses.
Cheers 🙏
It’s so sad the grave needs tending to. Hopefully somebody will come along this summer and tidy the grave so we can see the lovely gravestone again. Thank you Only Fools and Horses is what we still watch to this day, as the tv is so rubbish.
This British actor, was very good man, I remember watching him in Ani’t it Half hot Mum & only fool & horse’s, died far to young . Lovely grave stone. And respect to you and your followers and Edward family.
He was a great actor didn't realised he had passed away so young so sad.Brilliant video Paul 🙂👍
Top job pal.
Another great vlog, and really true words at the end. No one knows how long we have left!
Great video keep up with the good work 👍👍😁
Another great video Paul, wish you could do a lot more, but I suppose that darn thing called work gets in the way 🙄😄 loved the little pep talk at the end, reminded me of a few of George's song lyrics: 'Life is there for the taking' and 'it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no one' 💜 Looking forward to the next video, have a fab week.
Another legend Paul very informative and nicely done. Mike from the nag's head. Say no more he was brilliant and so sad he's gone bless him. 🙏 first class video
Great video cheers Paul see u at the next one 👍
Find it fascinating walking around graveyards love watching your videos
Well done Paul, another great video. Mike Fisher was my favourite character in only fools and horses, taken too soon RIP x
love this ,what a great youtuber
Paul, would like to know which grave did you first visit ,and the very latest, and the next
Get ya coat Paul you've pulled my son !!
As del boy would say 🤣 sorry could not resist that.
Loved him in
ain't half hot mum,also as the bartender in only fools and horses,sadly missed,RIP,I know what your saying Paul,I'm on my third time with cancer in 8 years,life is for living so live it your way xxxx❤️😊
Lovely sentiments Paul. Great work as always 👍
So sad seeing Kennith McDonald grave left like that,could someone who lives near there go and tidy it up? It’s so sad to see the headstone neglected
Keep up the good work mate 👍👍👍 love your videos
Was told movie actor Richard Burton is buried over there somewhere. I loved that man.😉
Awesome paul amazing videos 👍👏
Rip Kenneth 🌹🌹🌹 , you were a great actor , always be remembered x 🙏
Great actor thanks for sharing
Respectful and reflective. Thanks Paul.
A very interesting and and in depth resume about the late, Kenneth Macdonald.
I think that the presentation is very, very well constructed, and I look forward to another visit, somewhere.
Another good vid!...my Grandparents are buried there.
Been waiting for this one as a fools fan. Well done Paul very respectful as usual.
Fantastic videos on here. My friend and I regularly visit grave yards. They're so peaceful and interesting. It's good to know, we're not the only ones. We've had some sideways looks from others at times. They don't know what they're missing!
"Every day when we wake up is another beginning!" ...so true!
I'm bitterly disappointed with myself for not realising who Kenneth MacDonald was, he was a legend in both It Ain't Half Hot Mum & Only Fools & Horses, Please forgive me Ken, RIP
I didn't know he was in 'It ain't haf hot Mum' and of course Don Estelle who also appeared in that show is buried in our cemetery. Kenneth was a very versatile actor. Thanks for sharing Paul xx
It looks like the heather that is low growing has been neglected and grown out of control, my own family plot in Windsor is now kerbed with marble chippings due to the fact my family is now living far and wide, and having volunteers tending a grave could be problematic if it offends or upsets close family, which is why plots that are 30 plus years old are better maintained by cemetery volunteers.
I like cemetery’s too...the crows are just aware ur there, and warning the others,ive got some noisy crows too.
lol. So much wildlife in cemetery’s..as it’s mainly Undisturbed for them.
Kenneth was a great actor:especially in fools n horses.
Thanks Paul for another respectful actors visit.
