Loved Richard Griffiths. Pie in the Sky is still one of my favourite series ever.
So talented. Comedy or drama, good guy or bad guy, he could play them all.
Thank you for this visit. 🤗
Richard Griffiths was a bloody good actor as shown by his versatility. We owe a debt of gratitude to the work colleague who advised him to complete his education. Lovely church too.
Yep we do yes it was
I think he was a lovely man and a brilliant and stylish actor.
He was brilliant
He was superb in Withnail and I, playing the lascivious uncle.
Such a lovely church and the blackbird song, peaceful. I do love old churches. He was a great actor and what a lovely graveyard to be at rest in
I’ve just started watching Pie in the Sky from the beginning again and feel sad he’s no longer with us, he was a very versatile actor
Yep I like him pie in the sky
Gosh! I didn't realise he had done so much. Lovely little church and a lovely tribute.
What a lovely little church. To live in a village in uk and have your own church, heavenly. I’ve lived in Australia for over 40 years, homesickness never leaves you, especially when you show me these beautiful places, and believe me they are still beautiful. If I could start over again, well that can never happen Thankyou Paul for bringing me home even for just a visit). (Jennifer). 😢
An amazing man, such a wonderful actor
Its just amazing how much this talented man accomplished it just shows coming from a poor background how hard he was prepared to work to gain success Rip Sir 😢
My daughter and I went today, went Stratford and then popped in to see Richard’s grave on the way home, so peaceful xXx
I adored him in Pie in the Sky he was brilliant in that he bought lots of pleasure in our house RIP lovely man ❤️
Yes indeed.
I couldn't agree more,I loved him as Henry Crabbe in Pie In The Sky.Maggie Steed was wonderful too as Margaret.
He was outstanding in “Withnail and I”.
I can't believe it's been ten years since we lost the brilliant Richard Griffiths.. He had a violent, dysfunctional upbringing and went on to become an internationally acclaimed Shakespearean actor. Then earned an OBE for his services to the British entertainment industry. Talk about rising from the ashes like a Phoenix..One of my favourite movies is Withnail and I, as it's the most hilarious black comedy. The highlight of the film is the wickedly funny, randy old Uncle Monty. Richard steals every scene he's in and his performance was unabashedly outrageous. It's hard to reconcile he's the same actor, who played the no nonsense, dry witted, yet kindly Detective/Chef Henry Crabbe, a few years later in Pie In The Sky. This television series also showcased Richard's diversity as a character actor. It was such a unique police drama, centred around a charming restaurant. Detective Crabbe showed his creative culinary side by getting busy in his kitchen. Yet, also solving seemingly impossible murder cases, while serving mouthwatering dishes from a bygone era each week. The plots were imaginative, with twists and turns galore. My late father loved watching 'the pieman' and said only an accomplished actor like Richard Griffiths could do the role justice..Anyway, I miss my dad and Richard. The world is a poorer place, without people of substance in it. I enjoy watching your videos too and I've subbed. You're always respectful and have such interesting facts about these famous, departed celebrities. Cheers from Australia.
He played the bishop in the vicar of dibley. He said to David Horton “I didn’t realise you was giving her one” classic line
Thank you for presenting us Richard Thomas Griffiths. The movie I first noticed him and then got me to watch everything he ever did was Blame it on the Bellboy with dudley moore.
Such a great loss and what a busy career he had , thanks Paul .
Such a talented actor, lovely setting. Stratford upon Avon is beautiful. RIP Richard. Thankyou Paul
I remember Richard Griffiths he played inspector Henry crabbe in the programme pie in the sky he owned a restaurant he was chef as well as a policeman keep up with the amazing videos Paul I always look forward to them thank you
Richard was a Very good actor in his own right. Thanks again Paul for being you. And I'm pleased you managed to get in a church this time around 👍
I have watched a lot of things with Richard in it and he’s an amazing actor. Loved him in Harry Potter and played Vernon really well. I love the church and the ceiling is like something from Hogwarts. RIP Richard 💕
Evening Paul just qatched the latest video didnt realise Richard had been in so many shows and films and a rare sight of you actually getting into a church nice name St mary the virgin....thats the name of out local church...anyway thankyou as always
Another brilliant delivery Paul. Hallelujah the door is open, thank God. It is man who prevents prayers in places of closeness.
I loved him in the Harry Potter franchise. He was great in everything he did. In a Private Function he was so funny. god bless you Richard xx
Another great actor taken to soon. I enjoyed his small part in Bleak House he played it brilliantly. Thank you. PS I was in Mount Jerome Cemetery here in Dublin and came across the grave of O.Z. Whitehead he was an American actor who was in The Grapes of Wrath and was part of John Ford stock of Actors. He moved here in the 1960’s. ❤
St Mary the Virgin was open for you Paul!!!! The view from the gallery was amazing to see.
Your gifting us with many beautiful countryside church yards, who's residents have very good taste atm. Richard was a good all-round actor it was a pity he took his wings at 65, I could sit and watch him in many films and tv programme's.
Take care of yourself young man 👻
Beautifully done Paul . A bit late im afraid tonight. Pie in the sky! 🤣🤣
Hi Paul liked the video lovely church looking forward to the next video 👍🙂👌
Richard Griffiths was a great actor .Was nice that the church was open .Thanks for posting this 👍
Querky and amazing as always Paul , such a well established actor was Richard Griffiths RIP . Such a stunning church , im so pleased you got in it . 🥰
Hi Paul, like you I come from Portsmouth too. My aunty use to live in St Mary's Road so I often played in Kingston Cemetery with my cousin. When I was in my early twenties I worked in Milton Cemetery for a couple of years cutting grass and digging graves so that has given me a fascination for Cemeteries. So I find your videos are great to watch and very informative so keep up the good work.
Cheers Paul, I grew up next to Kingston cemetery and played in there as a kid too… used to feed the crows
Great actor, big character and so sad he no longer is with us. A great little spot to rest in when the dog is asleep! Pie in the sky was fab, set in Old Town Hemel Hempsted in Hertfordshire. He gave us the gift of receiving such great acting with the performances he gave in all he undertook.
The dog scenerio😂 . Nice little church. Another good video 👍🙂 always sadder with great actors like this one. .
What a beautiful church. Withnail and I is one of my favourite films. Richard Griffiths is so hilarious in his role. He was exceptionally brilliant in all his roles though tbh. Thanks for another great video
I met Richard Griffiths years ago, around the time he was filming the Harry Potter films, he was in the hotel room next door to me and held the door open for me when walking back to the room, he got a call on his mobile as soon as he reached his room door, it appeared to be his agent from the way he was speaking.
You always make amazing videos. ❤️😀🎥📺Unusual things thank you so much🙏❤️😀 Paul he was a amazing actor RICHRD GrIFFITHS❤️ in Harry Potter 🎬🎥❤️🍿movies he will always be recognised for amazing movies looking forward to your next amazing video and your amazing lifestream take care Paul stay safe🙏❤️👍👍👍😀👋 have a nice Sunday evening🍾🥂 are you a big Harry 🧹Potter fan❤️😀 and do you own the movies🎬
Er hat mir auch gut gefallen als Schauspieler. Und wow war das ein toller Anblick, die Tür ging auf, es war wieder wunderschön.
Danke Paul, für dieses Video 🙏👋👍
Hey Paul, that’s a nice tribute to Richard. He’s buried in a peaceful place and the church is beautiful. Pie in The Sky was fantastic as was Maggie Steed alongside Richard with Samantha Janus too. Good times. Ruhe in Frieden Richard ✝️
RIP Richard Griffith. A very talented actor. Funnily enough, I looked up all that died from the Harry Potter films, my favourite actor, Alan Rickman, and the saddest Rob Knox, stabbed protecting his brother.
I've been there a couple of times,it is very peaceful, didn't know Richard Griffin was buried there ! R.I.P. Richard. Hi Paul 🙂.
Richard Griffith`s an absolute giant of Films,television and theatre.
Did not matter what he was in, if his name appeared on the cast list it was worth watching.
A great loss to the entertainments industry.
❤❤Thank you so much for showing the grave of one of my favorite actors richard griffiths. Absolutely brilliant actor. Gone but not forgotten. May he rest in peace. Thank you once again Paul ❤ ❤
A fine actor. Incredibly diverse in his ability to take on such interesting characters. Thanks for this Paul. Fabulous.
Loved him in Pie in the Sky, Harry Potter and Vicar of Dibley. Such a versatile actor. May he rest in peace. It is great to see the interiors of some of the churches you visit. A pity there isnt an organisation we could donate to for the upkeep of celebrities' graves.
Cant wait see this
He really liked him because he was a fellow Yorkshire man ,like me 💓 he was a great actor, my fav was Gandhi as well as all the amazing acting roles in the harry potter series as well Rest in Eternal peace forever Richard Thomas Griffith's 🙏🙏🌹🎥🎬🎞️➕ Thank you Paul your dear friend always Rodney Roger brook 😎🎸🤘👑
Yes me too! I'm Yorkshire born and bred! ❤
I didn't know he passed. Such a remarkable actor. It is good to see these video's as it gives us the opportunity to remember and pay respects from a distance.
I had a strange day in my home town way back when they filmed a scene from A Private Function. Found myself standing around with Richard Griffiths, Denholm Elliott and Michael Palin - all great guys. Thanks Paul. Great vid, yet again 👍🏻🤗
I always liked Richard Griffiths in anything I saw him in but I didn't know he'd had such an interesting life. Being the son of two deaf parents must have been rather challenging.
Nice little church too. I assume the bunting is for the coronation?
I loved Richard Griffiths in Pie in the Sky ❤
An absolutely brilliant all-round actor. So sadly missed by many, many people. Obviously loved him in Harry Potter and Pie in the Sky. Thank you Paul for a lovely trip down memory lane.
Looking forward to seeing this one
Thanks Paul very nice place very peaceful chunch nice too. Great actor R.I.P
Great actor Richard Griffiths's.. Love him in pie and the sky..Also Whitnail and I..
Thanks again Paul, a great review. He was a very good actor and played the part of a barrister etc very well, he had the demeanour. Again, I find it a bit hypocritical that his grave is marked ‘Beloved’ but yet is very poorly maintained. Even if his relatives live far away, there are contractors who do this type of work.
Hi Paul, I don't remember names of people, but faces. Boy do I remember him. He was in so many wonderful movies. Thanks for choosing to show us his resting place.
Take care and stay safe till next time. ❤️
Richard Griffiths what an amazing actor, I find it very sad when you visit a grave of an actor/actresses etc and their grave has no flowers 💐 on there 😢
What a great actor he was , pie in the sky was my favourite.
Keep up the great work you doing love the videos
A beautiful humble church. Love Richard in everything he did. Love this UA-cam you have created.
You got in ,they are places of peace for people to pay respect to those who have passed. Thanks Paul.
A very small part in Chariots of Fire but he made his presence felt. He took the lead role in The History Boys.
A great and versatile actor he had such an amazing career ,loved Pie in the sky and his part in the Harry potter films.
Yeah an open church, simple but lovely Thank you for sharing.
Hello Paul 👋😊 Richard Griffiths grave looks great, thanks for sharing and your respect. May Richard Griffiths rest in peace 🕊️😢
IM SO GLAD YOU ARE SHOWING THIS ONE PAUL I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED THIS ACTOR HE IS WONDERFUL IN WITHNAIL AND I
WITH RICHATD E GRANT ITS A BRILLIANT MOVIE AND ALSO SLEEPY HOLLOW AND GORKY PARK
CANT WAIT 🙏🥀
Absolutely amazing actor
At 53 I would have thought I would associate him with earlier films but no! I loved his role in Harry Potter...no mail today it's Sunday!!
Thanks Paul, it was as good as all your other videos. Nice cemetery, nice church, but his grave looks like nobody takes really care about it😮. Have a nice Sunday evening and take care of yourself. Greetings from Germany Melinda
Richard Griffiths....what a great Actor. I must admit didnt knw his full acting CV...Shakespear parts as well. That says it all of his acting abilities.Pie in the sky fitted him like a glove. Made for him...Another perfect part in Harry Potter.....such a versatile Actor he was. A very peaceful setting for his final resting place...Thanks again to you Paul for all the many miles you travel in bringing these crlebrity graves to this platform ...your a 🌟....
Hello Paul, Thankyou once again for an interesting yet sad commentary on the life of Richard Griffiths. He was a great actor and entertained us for a very long time. So sad that all the flowers on his grave are dead. What about putting a small bunch of
flowers on a grave that you visit in remembrance to them to say we shall never forget you. I know you pat the graves and say Thankyou which is a great honour for you to do. Anyway everything you do concerning these wonderful actors is much appreciated by us all. Thankyou Paul. Your kindness always shows through. ❤
" I would rather die a meaningful death, than to live a meaningless life "
Great vlog as always Paul, admittedly I was never a Harry potter fan, but.. have seen his great talent in movies & other TV series, the church & grave looked a nice spot tbh!
Cheers 🍻
I was really looking forward to this video, and learned so much about Richard from it. Great research Paul, and respectful as always. The church is so peaceful. Thanks
Watched him in Pie in the Sky in Brisbane. Thanks for visiting his grave for us.
Well done Paul! (We share that great Hammer tshirt)! Very interesting, thanks so much, and the church was open . You do perfect video's, love em. X
Thank you, Paul, for all that information on Richard Griffiths. Very interesting, and what a life he had in films and TV. May he RIP ✝️🙏🏽
💔 🙏
Hi Paul. Another great video. Seems impossible that it’s ten years since Richard left us. Such a versatile actor. In amongst his vast catalogue of work he stared in an episode of Lovejoy in 1993 called ‘They call me Midas’ where he played Dutch art collector Hans Koopman who bought up collections of up and coming artists, never to see the light of day until they had increased hugely in value. It seemed to be a role made for him, can’t imagine anyone else creating the character like Richard did. Keep ‘em coming!
I remember Richard Griffiths From Harry Potter he played Vernon Dursley in Harry Potter his Character was really Mean to Harry . He was a Good Actor. I think he died of Cardiac / Heart Surgery . RIP Richard Griffiths 😢 How are you Paul were you a Big Harry Potter fan? I was, but now I'm a big Ant and Dec fan
Hi, I’m not a massive Harry Potter fan, but I have seen the movies…

Richard Griffiths was such a good actor. Harry Potter was the first film I saw him in. In the vicar of dibley he was hilarious lol. He spoke softly then loudly 😂😂 may he rest in peace. Such a loss
Great video as usual Paul and a great choice of an amazing actors grave to see, because I liked his cameo in Naked Gun 2 and a half, flying down the stadium steps and flying off the end 😂 and Harry Potter of course, so the guy is a legend, and your information about each grave you visit is top notch as usual, so thanks for such a great video again 😊🙏
