My jaw hit the floor when you said you spend 10 hours per video replying to comments. You are an absolute diamond Gary. I have severe mental health problems and you honestly give me a bit of a light in a difficult time. Thank you for everything. I appreciate you so much.
I am sorry for all with severe mental health issues, love and hugs to you all. Yes, agree you and your son Gary a class act. Deeply sorry about your mum. Love to her too. Kind regards Gerry Low
@@alexhay7446 brilliant … this whole time you call him camera man and I’m dismissing your content to only see nuance many shows later … let’s have a go…
I love your vlogs Gary I had a bit of a suspicion thought that the camera man was a relative of yours, fab q and a, you will have to try the north east up from Whitney you will love it, you could do a fish and chip challenge or pub challenge 😀👍❤️
Hi Gary, I am an ex BBC radio presenter of 25 years now with commercial radio, my first editor told me to imagine all my listeners were blind as it will help me in my style of presenting and help me paint a picture with words, you my friend have this in abundance, please keep on with your enigmatic style you are an inspiration, best wishes, love all the videos, Dougie from York.
Man, that was just great. I am sure I speak for 99.9% of viewers when I say the reason I watch this channel so avidly is because I just like Gary. A decent, honest man in a cesspit of narcissism and so much the better for it. As many of us will be fathers, I know I won't be alone in. tearing up a little to learn that it's Gary's son. I got a lump in my throat at that revelation. All I can say is keep going. You don't need to spend 10 hours replying, although you always do. Gary Eats is great. Gary the man is better Love - that's the thing.
This is exactly how I feel about it. Gary is like a familiar friend. You are so right about him standing out in a cesspit of toxicity and narcissism. He's the first person I look for on UA-cam for an unwatched video now. God knows what I'll do when I've 'completed' his channel 😂😂
May I say Gary, I hope I speak for the majority of us here, this Q&A with you deserves and standing ovation for you (and the cameraman) This has been so so refreshing to see a UA-camr being so personal with your fans and it almost feels like we’re sat with a friend. I know I feel like I’m sat with one. Many thanks Gary.
I think the reason your channel is doing well is simply, you come across as a genuinely nice guy. You are not out to bad mouth restaurants. You say what you find. That is so refreshing on UA-cam
Well put. UA-cam is rife with click bait, quick edits, fake drama nonsense. Gary is playing the long game and taking the high road. It’s about having respect for the audience and the restaurants.
Gary is truly honest & genuine, you couldn't meet a more honest person, he's addictive to watch over & over & I recommend him everywhere I go, my family, local rfc & work, Gary your ears must be permanently on fire 🔥 haaa x
If more people were as polite, humble and genuine as you Gary then this country and society in general would be so much better for it. Keep doing what you’re doing and don’t change a thing. Absolutely brilliant that after being away with your job that you and your son have reconnected with the launch of the channel ❤️
In a world with so much cynicism and pessimism, to which I contribute my fair share, you are a shining star. Wholesome, honest, down-to-earth content for the average person. You reviewed a small local business in my home town and gave it a shining review, because you understood its purpose and earnestness - You have integrity and love for what you do, and that's what makes us come back and love you. Keep going Gary, you're fantastic.
Finally we know the cameraman is Gary’s Son. How lovely to spend time together. I’m probably the youngest subscriber to your channel and love watching your videos. Keep it up Guys 😊
Food review channels are ten a penny on UA-cam but the reason this channel works so well is because of Gary. He's one of life's good guys, which can be hard to come by, and is just so likeable. He's the kind of person that after you've spent even ten mins with them, you feel better afterwards. His positivity is infectious and he doesn't take himself too seriously. Even when he has something negative to say he's almost apologetic for it. This is why the channel is popular. Let's not forget the cameraman aka Gary Junior! Their little banter is funny and adds to the videos too. Keep it up guys 🙂
Correct Gary is great honest etc. Unlike many who a)can't appreciate good food b)moan about quantity in cheap throw away over processed supermarket food c)winge about price etc quantity in the processed cr*p and ooh why does it take so long in oven, example Lancashire hotpot ready meal should crispy potatoes on top, idiot puts in microwave and then wonders why potatoes are soggy. Budget supermarkets Aldi and Lidl sell fresh food erm why not cook that
I'm sorry but who would have the audacity to troll such a respectful person. Even when you go to eateries you dislike you always always always try to pick out the positives. Such a positive and uplifting guy. Keep doing what you're doing it is clearly working for the majority.
@@GaryEats honestly Gary I worked with my dad for many years, and it was wonderful. Really do miss him now. The way you spoke about your son hit me harder than any youtube video I've ever seen. Have a good one sir 👍
I don't see how Gary can be astonished he's accrued his UA-cam success. He's so terrific with his upbeat personality, his excellent reviews, and the exquisite video presentation. This channel deserves hundreds of thousands if not millions of subscribers.
I’m stunned Gary. I don’t know what to say. Cameraman is your son! I remember joking asking if you were in a relationship with cameraman. But you actually are. Your son. And you look after your poor mum I’m in tears. God bless you both.
I stumbled across his channel a few months ago and I've watched quite a few of his videos by now. I cannot believe he has had trolls or bad comments said to him! I mean this guy is just so genuine, nice, polite; what's not to like??
How could anyone not like and respect this gentleman. I was touched when you mentioned how you care for your mom. And how great that you have such a loving relationship with your son to where you even work together. I’m so happy that I found your channel. You’re a great guy that provides great videos for us, your audience, to enjoy. I wish you all the success in the world. Cheers!
The camera man is your son ... how wonderful, has really made me smile for the evening. Sorry to hear about your mum Gary. My dad had dimentia... it is very hard seeing a loved one suffer in this way and my utter respect goes out to you. On a brighter note I have been busy working this week so I have a few reviews to catch up on this weekend so will enjoy those. Don't mind the sponsorship at all to help fund your trips. I know you will only endorse things that you believe in. Really getting the merch going I think could help as well.
So sorry to hear about your mother. I cared for my father and found it one of the toughest but most rewarding things I ever did. You get to know your parent in a different way, which can be challenging but I was so glad I was able to do that. I hope everything goes well for you and your mother. Obviously, I don’t know you but you come across as a genuinely nice person, kudos to you for being there for your mum!
I'm sorry to hear that about your Mum. Bless her and bless you. As busy as we knew you were, you're actually even busier. You are truly amazing at everything you do.
Hello Gazza , you hate mushrooms 🍄 I hate celery, the taste , texture, and smell . My favourite crisps bovril , glad I found your channel a few weeks ago , followed you since . More power to your eating elbow
@GaryEats Bless you. As always, it is my pleasure and you are very welcome. You are a truly amazing gentleman and the content that you provide is absolutely outstanding.
Right then Gary, you're 35 years old, got 30 years in the industry, so you started out at the age of 5. Did your parents also send you up chimneys? I really enjoyed your vlog today, it was a good chuckle. Hope your Mum is as well as circumstances permit. Until your next vlog keep giving it a go.
I left school to look after my nana for 6 years with dementia…every time she went to sleep multiple times a day she would wake asking where her husband was and wouldn’t stop asking till you told her he had passed away..so going through being told the person you love is dead multiple times a day,very cruel disease,but I was lucky she never forgot who I was..she couldn’t remember the day or year or who prime minister or what happened an hour a go,yet she could remember the price of every shoe she sold as 17 year old girl…so respect for what your doing with your mum,it’s hard but when you love them what else can you do but return the love they gave you growing up..
My heart goes out to you. I was thinking the same myself last week at the nursing home: how can my mother-in-law remember her childhood in the war but she couldn't tell you what she had to eat half an hour ago? If we're sitting outside in the grounds she'll go in to use the toilet and forget we're even there.
Wow what a credit you are to your Nana. Such a hard thing to do so young. I hope you've been able to go on and experience your own life to the full now. She would have wanted that.
Wow, thanks for the shoutout Gary, and also for giving a shoutout to some others doing really good things in this little corner of UA-cam too. So the cat is let out of the bag there for our upcoming collaboration, looking forward to welcoming you to Dorset 😃
On a serious note, respect that you look after your mum. I respect anyone who does what you do in that situation. How you are able to film around such a commitment is pretty impressive. Also, really lovely that you work with your son. You genuinely come across as a "decent bloke" and we could all do with being one of those a little more in our own lives. So good luck on the continued growth of the channel, you deserve it. On the sponsorships side, you are going to get the small minority of subscribers who think they can dictate to you what you should and shouldn't do because they've subscribed to you for a while. It's your channel and if they don't like it they can always go elsewhere.
I am English man living in Sweden (50 years now!) And I think you are a breath of gastromic air! Keith Floyd would be,PROUD of You!!! You are great! 😊😊😊😊 and..LIVERPOOL.F.C.too!!! All the BEST!!🎉
Don’t change Gary. Your formula is clearly working for both you, and for the audience. Class and authenticity are inherently within.. or absent. Kudos.
Just returned from a week in America and while sat here jet lagged I can tell you that there is nothing more relaxing and satisfying than getting up to date on with the missed Gary Eats videos! This is probably my favorite video too, honest and as truthful as ever Gary but what I really loved the most was discovering that the cameraman is actually your son, makes the whole channel even more special. Get a tight grip, you guys are absolutely flying!! Brilliant, just brilliant.
Crack on Gary. Down to Earth, sensible, normal... it's very refreshing to see someone on UA-cam who isn't crazily dragging out their presence for views, views, views. Close to 100K subscribers now and very well deserved - when you get there! Regardless of how many subscribers, to see this video has 10K view in 3 hours is a huge vote of confidence in what you're doing.
How lovely that your son is the cameraman! You two are a good team! I am so sorry to learn that your mother has dementia. She is lucky to have you! Thank you for all the videos. You and your son are doing a great job. It is much appreciated.
I love Floyd too, he drank more wine than he put on the food. I knew some builders that worked on his houses and they said he was the nicest bloke ever and were treated like kings.
Back in the 90’s fitted Kieth’s lounge carpet,What an absolute gentleman he was 👍Done us bacon sarnies at lunch and insisted we sat in the rather large kitchen to eat them, Top Man tipped us £50 for the job too 👍👍
Made me all teary eyed when you talked about your son and dear old mum, mate. Lots of love to both of them. I’ve followed you since you began and couldn’t be happier for you, Gary. This was my favourite video you’ve ever posted. I remember your battle to stop saying ‘naan bread’, and I told you then, as a Pakistani, as long you enjoy the food with a smile on your face, nobody cares! Here’s to 100k. Cheers, mate!
Well, well Gary, that for me was your best video so far, The "Son" moment actually brought tears to my eyes, as a Dad myself. The only thing you need to do from now on is ........ Exactly what you have been doing since day one fella, be you and we watch ... 🥰
I’m a Brit living in the U.S. and I watch your reviews. I suppose you help to serve me as another connection to my homeland. I like your no nonsense reviews and your kind and gentle personality. Sending you, your son and mum all the best. I, too, have a mother with dementia and it’s no easy life for her or for those of us who care for her.
i think this is probably the first comment i’ve ever left on a youtube video but gary, you truly are one of a kind! there’s something so familiar having you on my screen that brings me great comfort; i thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and it’s even lovelier knowing that your son is the camera man seeing as i watch these with my mum! i can’t even begin to wonder what possible negative comments you’d get on any videos because you come across as such a kind and genuine soul :) your animation as you speak and your honest opinions make you feel all that more real rather than just a man on a screen reviewing food- keep being gary!
A Liverpool supporter, Irish stew and Guiness and total respect for the workers and servers. You are an absolute gentleman, ive just found this channel in the last week and its cheered me up so much Gary
Massive massive massive respect to you Gary for looking after your mum. My wife is doing the same 24hours a day up in Northampton and has been for nearly a year. Unfortunately that means because of the cost of respite carers etc. I only get to see her maybe once a month and just for a few hours. Since I’m still unable to drive on medical grounds it’s even harder. I couldn’t be more aware of your personal challenge. Good on you old fella. My respect for you has just gone through the roof. Great Q&A too. ❤
If any of you are wondering what Gary's real name is, and I'm surprised as I thought it was common knowledge, but if you don't know, it's Gary Legend. It's actually where the word "Legend" cam from.
A serious illness forced me to abandon plans to spend retirement travelling the world and savouring other cultures and cuisines. You Tube and outstanding content creators like yourself have enabled my wife and I to still have these experiences. This gives a purpose and meaning to life that would otherwise be relatively empty. Thank you. But for all the thousands of UA-camrs and video choices for some reason we settle on only a few to watch regularly and I never stopped to think why. This video nails it……you are a really nice guy and our subscriptions are to people who are genuine, honest and caring, just like you. You obviously have your share of life’s challenges but you have your priorities right and it’s so refreshing to hear of your commitment to your carers role and your son. Keep up the great video work but continue to keep that sense of balance and perspective….don’t become a slave to subscriber numbers as you will always have a loyal following just as you are. Best wishes.
I’m so sorry to hear that you are unwell that’s not good to hear at all. I so very much appreciate you following the channel and for such a wonderful comment thank you and I send you both my very best wishes 🌹
Hi Gary… Please no sponsors. This can leads to a slippery slope. The reason why I love and watch this Channel is because it’s very personal and uniquely interesting. The content is excellent as it is. It’s just my personal opinion. Ofcourse I don’t mean to overstep or anything. This was a lovely video. Very nice to get a glimpse into your world too! PS my mum had dementia too. Very tough to deal with… all the best with her.
It's not going to be long to get to that 100K and beyond. You're a natural when it comes to talking to the camera, and your genuine and honest warmth and empathy is a huge attraction for viewers. You're like the best mate everyone would love to have! There is a simplicity about your videos that make them very relatable and watchable. Don't go too 'snazzy', it's then viewers start to lose that connection through a diminishing authenticity. Great great work to you and your son....and what a lovely heartfelt reveal!
What a wonderful guy and a wonderful community we have here. Hope everyone hangs around for a long long time. Nicest comment section I've ever seen online.
Please don’t ever change, you come across as throughly decent with a great sense of humour and I have nothing but admiration for how long it takes you to respond to your Gary Eats community! It is so appreciated. Also finding out that your son is the cameraman makes it even more special. I know I’ve told you before and I’ll say it again I absolutely love this channel and you only have to look at your increasing number of subs to know that many of us feel the same☺
Jaffa Cakes are cakes because they go hard when stale. Biscuits become soft. This was tested and reported on several years ago. And as I have now stated many times, I think your Channel is fantastic Gary, and I agree with others that you are the nicest, fairest, most honest reviewer online and one of the most watchable and entertaining.
Gary i think it's beautiful that it's your son who is the camera man! Also I'm genuinely sorry to hear of your mum having dementia that definitely can't be easy for you one bit and yes you only have one mum who deserves all the love and respect you can give her! Thank you for sharing a bit more about yourself i enjoyed watching this video! I wish you and cameraman and your mum nothing but positivity peace and love ♥️
@@GaryEats absolutely no worries gary.i have to say tho 10 hours to go through the comments sections god lord that's a hell of a lot of hours for sure.thank you for taking so much time it's greatly appreciated! Positivity peace and love ♥️
Gary you should've seen the smile on my face when you revealed the cameraman's identity! What a joyous and brilliant revelation 😍 Gosh, if I loved the channel before now I adore it even more. This was a wonderful peek behind the scenes; you continue to brighten the lives of so many people. Much love and respect.
Bless you, Gary, for taking care of your mom. I am the sole caregiver for my almost 93 year old grandmother who also has dementia. It's a heartbreaking disease, but the Lord knows she's taken care of me long enough - now I can return the favor. It's impossible for me to travel or take even the shortest of vacations, so I totally understand your travel predicament. BUT, being from the US, I can't wait for you to come over here & show me some American restaurants that I have a chance to try. But, keep taking care of that mom of yours & give her a hug for me! And, keep up the amazing job you're doing with your channel! I never miss an episode. Ps. I always thought that the cameraman was your son! What a sweet reveal!
Gary, so glad to hear the cameraman is your son because my daughter and I often discuss who he might be and it was my daughter who worked out he was you son. I can't wait to tell her she was right,she'll be really chuffed. Keep 'em coming please Gary, we love your videos. ❤Lyn and Sally x
You're such a natural on camera and very relatable. I think it's great that you look after your mum. As you say dementia is incredibly tough on everyone but looking after a loved one can feel like a privilege. I enjoyed your Q and A video today and look forward to many more episodes in the future 👍.
As a Leeds fan I forgive you Gary 😀 Seriously, you are one of the nicest guys on UA-cam....wishing you massive continued success on the channel, just never change
What a good man you are Gary! Absolutely loved getting to know you more and hearing about your mum and son, so much respect for you. Now we just need a Q&A with Mr Camerman 😉
This is sue from Australia Gary, just wanted to tell you that I loved you before watching this question and answer video, but I adore you now, they broke the mould when they made you. We need more people like you in this world, especially now. Keep up the good work, I will definitely keep watching, even though you make me feel home sick for my mother land.
Evening Gary thank you so very much for the fantastic Q and A vlog. You have done so well and I love watching you because you are so natural and a lovely guy. You really perk me up if I am feeling low. You are so interesting. My passion is food as I mentioned before had a cafe/bar, had recipes published in mag and book. It was so good of you to tell us about your mum and son. Hope you go from strength to strength and I shall watch every one! Hope one day to meet you as it would be a pleasure. Suex
I think there is one thing we can all agree on. You are a really lovely guy. You’re funny, interesting, down to earth and honest. Can’t ask for anything better than that. We love you Gary and thoroughly enjoy your videos. Keep going and lots of success in the future. Xxx
You took me by surprise when you said 10 hours per video to reply to comments. You seem such a genuine bloke, and it shouldn't be long before you hit 100k. I love the style that you do your reviews and is such a refreshing change to see that on UA-cam
Of course Gary's favourite band is food related.❤❤😂😂. And if I could not respect Gary and this channel anymore than I already do, he posts this video which just confirms what a wonderful man he is. And the comment "They are leaving someone else alone" made me well up. If I get asked who is my favourite food reviewer, that is now very easy to answer.
Just watched your Q&A Special with my wife, and 'as always', it was entertaining and very enjoyable. I think people watch this for two main reasons - obviously to hear about where to eat and what is on offer, but also because you come across as honest and reasonable. I imagine most would agree, but please don't change the way you provide this information and your style.
Hi Gary and camera man, Just watched your Q&A video and it is so nice to hear someone say "i am not a professional" - and that you appreciate viewers comments. You far exceed the rubbish on TV with so called 'professionals' and it's refreshing to see honesty on your reviews. The o2 was an eye opener and my wife who is an excellent cook said that the cold buffet should never put cold chicken re heated on the buffet ... no wonder your stomach was iffy afterward after eating in the o2 (I am not mentioning which buffet) but we won't be going there anytime soon ! Keep giving it a try Gary. You are well deserved that UA-cam award for 10k subscriber. OUR SCORE to you today: 10/10
Gary, A lion never loses sleep over the opinions of sheep. When I see a real OG become successful, I can do nothing but appreciate ! It’s hard what you do. Putting yourself out there. Respect Edit: glad to hear you’re a fellow red ! There’s tons of food spots in Liverpool!
Gary, you've outdone yourself here. I had a mountain of respect for you and your channel prior to watching this, but you've taken it to another level. Father son partnership adds an extra layer of special to your channel, and the fact you look after your mum so well is very admirable. Lastly, your comment about trolls and how they're leaving others alone is a true mark of your character and integrity. Keep up the great work, all the best, from your friend here in New Zealand.
One of the most genuine people on UA-cam....
Absolutely agree 👍🏼
So true Gavin👍
I will second that
Seems like a really nice bloke. 👍🏻
indeed.

It doesn’t bother me at all 👍
@GaryEats It's the internet, there's always someone out there with nothing better to do than be horrible.
Anyone else wiping away a tear when Gary told us who the cameraman is.
And another when he told us about his mum!
Yeah, it was a lovely reveal.
Me for sure. Family is everything ❤️
You can tell from their banter that it’s someone he’s very close to, but I didn’t think it would be that close. 😊
That was a shocker but very lovely x
I know I shed a tear.

That is a really lovely comment Dougie thank you very very much
That's a great piece of advice you got. Thanks for sharing it. Obviously it's useful in broadcasting but, I think, it's valuable in general life too.
The best reviewer on the internet. It's the politeness and decency that shines through.
Thank you very much Andrew
Man, that was just great. I am sure I speak for 99.9% of viewers when I say the reason I watch this channel so avidly is because I just like Gary. A decent, honest man in a cesspit of narcissism and so much the better for it.

You are incredibly kind Shaun, thank you
I never comment on UA-cam, Gary, but what you said about people trolling you meant that others were left alone moved me. You're a prince amongst men
Thank you Richard

Absolutely brilliant that after being away with your job that you and your son have reconnected with the launch of the channel ❤️
Thank you for your kind words Steve
The reason why you are becoming so successful on UA-cam.
Authenticity will be the currency of the future.
In a world with so much cynicism and pessimism, to which I contribute my fair share, you are a shining star. Wholesome, honest, down-to-earth content for the average person. You reviewed a small local business in my home town and gave it a shining review, because you understood its purpose and earnestness - You have integrity and love for what you do, and that's what makes us come back and love you. Keep going Gary, you're fantastic.

I don't see how Gary can be astonished he's accrued his UA-cam success. He's so terrific with his upbeat personality, his excellent reviews, and the exquisite video presentation. This channel deserves hundreds of thousands if not millions of subscribers.
Thank you for your lovely words, it means a lot
I’m stunned Gary. I don’t know what to say. Cameraman is your son! I remember joking asking if you were in a relationship with cameraman. But you actually are. Your son. And you look after your poor mum I’m in tears. God bless you both.
Thank you Phillip 👍
@@GaryEatsknow i know you certainly feed him 🙂
I stumbled across his channel a few months ago and I've watched quite a few of his videos by now. I cannot believe he has had trolls or bad comments said to him! I mean this guy is just so genuine, nice, polite; what's not to like??
How could anyone not like and respect this gentleman. I was touched when you mentioned how you care for your mom. And how great that you have such a loving relationship with your son to where you even work together. I’m so happy that I found your channel. You’re a great guy that provides great videos for us, your audience, to enjoy. I wish you all the success in the world. Cheers!
That's very kind, thank you
We really enjoy you channel content, and appreciated your Q&A/UA-cam Journey video. Thank you, Gary. Charles Williams😃
Charles, that's incredibly generous of you. Thanks so much and take care!!
The camera man is your son ... how wonderful, has really made me smile for the evening. Sorry to hear about your mum Gary. My dad had dimentia... it is very hard seeing a loved one suffer in this way and my utter respect goes out to you. On a brighter note I have been busy working this week so I have a few reviews to catch up on this weekend so will enjoy those. Don't mind the sponsorship at all to help fund your trips. I know you will only endorse things that you believe in. Really getting the merch going I think could help as well.
Thank you for your lovely words Melanie, I'm so sorry to hear that and I wish your all the best
So sorry to hear about your mother. I cared for my father and found it one of the toughest but most rewarding things I ever did. You get to know your parent in a different way, which can be challenging but I was so glad I was able to do that. I hope everything goes well for you and your mother. Obviously, I don’t know you but you come across as a genuinely nice person, kudos to you for being there for your mum!
Thank you very much, but most of all well done to you. It is a very tough job.
I'm sorry to hear that about your Mum. Bless her and bless you. As busy as we knew you were, you're actually even busier. You are truly amazing at everything you do.
Hello Gazza , you hate mushrooms 🍄 I hate celery, the taste , texture, and smell . My favourite crisps bovril , glad I found your channel a few weeks ago , followed you since . More power to your eating elbow
Thank you for your lovely words and thank you personally for continuous support of the channel
@GaryEats Bless you. As always, it is my pleasure and you are very welcome. You are a truly amazing gentleman and the content that you provide is absolutely outstanding.
@@alec1113💯 this .
Right then Gary, you're 35 years old, got 30 years in the industry, so you started out at the age of 5. Did your parents also send you up chimneys?
I really enjoyed your vlog today, it was a good chuckle. Hope your Mum is as well as circumstances permit. Until your next vlog keep giving it a go.
LOL brilliant Colin. Thank you for your kind words
I left school to look after my nana for 6 years with dementia…every time she went to sleep multiple times a day she would wake asking where her husband was and wouldn’t stop asking till you told her he had passed away..so going through being told the person you love is dead multiple times a day,very cruel disease,but I was lucky she never forgot who I was..she couldn’t remember the day or year or who prime minister or what happened an hour a go,yet she could remember the price of every shoe she sold as 17 year old girl…so respect for what your doing with your mum,it’s hard but when you love them what else can you do but return the love they gave you growing up..
My heart goes out to you. I was thinking the same myself last week at the nursing home: how can my mother-in-law remember her childhood in the war but she couldn't tell you what she had to eat half an hour ago? If we're sitting outside in the grounds she'll go in to use the toilet and forget we're even there.
Wow what a credit you are to your Nana. Such a hard thing to do so young. I hope you've been able to go on and experience your own life to the full now. She would have wanted that.
@@moorenicola6264 went on to become mental health nurse because of it
I second that you’re a real credit
You are an incredible person. Best wishes to you.
how can anyone not like this guy? literally one of the best at what he does
That is so kind to say thank you very much
Wow, thanks for the shoutout Gary, and also for giving a shoutout to some others doing really good things in this little corner of UA-cam too. So the cat is let out of the bag there for our upcoming collaboration, looking forward to welcoming you to Dorset 😃
OI,OI,
FANCY SEE YOU HERE SIR,
@@davidjones6470 Hey David, how are things pal, hope all is well with you my friend!!
Top man Greeno, looking forward to it and enjoyed speaking to you
Mate you are a bloody gem 💎 a absolutely top bloke and your boy does a fantastic job.
The fact you are a father and son team only adds to it.
Thank you for your lovely words Jason
On a serious note, respect that you look after your mum. I respect anyone who does what you do in that situation. How you are able to film around such a commitment is pretty impressive.
Also, really lovely that you work with your son.
You genuinely come across as a "decent bloke" and we could all do with being one of those a little more in our own lives. So good luck on the continued growth of the channel, you deserve it.
On the sponsorships side, you are going to get the small minority of subscribers who think they can dictate to you what you should and shouldn't do because they've subscribed to you for a while. It's your channel and if they don't like it they can always go elsewhere.
Thank you for your kind words Steve
I am English man living in Sweden (50 years now!) And I think you are a breath of gastromic air! Keith Floyd would be,PROUD of You!!! You are great! 😊😊😊😊 and..LIVERPOOL.F.C.too!!! All the BEST!!🎉
That is very kind to say thank you. YNWA
Don’t change Gary. Your formula is clearly working for both you, and for the audience. Class and authenticity are inherently within.. or absent. Kudos.
I won’t Amanda and thank you x
Jaw-dropping Keiser Soze reveal of the cameraman! What a team.
No spoilers!!!!!
Lol!!
L🤫L
I thought it was more like a Darth Vader, 'The Cameraman...I am your father' moment!
Trolls are jealous and unhappy people who like to take down anyone who provides great content. Thank you Gary for all the work you do for us.
That’s very kind David thank you
Just returned from a week in America and while sat here jet lagged I can tell you that there is nothing more relaxing and satisfying than getting up to date on with the missed Gary Eats videos! This is probably my favorite video too, honest and as truthful as ever Gary but what I really loved the most was discovering that the cameraman is actually your son, makes the whole channel even more special. Get a tight grip, you guys are absolutely flying!! Brilliant, just brilliant.
Thank you very much Matt a really lovely comment I hope you get over the jet lag very quickly
I think everyone appreciates that you reply to all the comments, unlike other youtubers with much less subs.
Thank you for your kind words Richard. I said I would and I will carry on doing so
Crack on Gary. Down to Earth, sensible, normal... it's very refreshing to see someone on UA-cam who isn't crazily dragging out their presence for views, views, views.
Close to 100K subscribers now and very well deserved - when you get there!
Regardless of how many subscribers, to see this video has 10K view in 3 hours is a huge vote of confidence in what you're doing.
Thank you for your kind words
How lovely that your son is the cameraman! You two are a good team! I am so sorry to learn that your mother has dementia. She is lucky to have you! Thank you for all the videos. You and your son are doing a great job. It is much appreciated.
Thanks Sylvia
Loved this video. Imagine how awesome a world would be if everyone was like Gary? No wars, just great food.
That’s such a kind comment thank you
I love Floyd too, he drank more wine than he put on the food. I knew some builders that worked on his houses and they said he was the nicest bloke ever and were treated like kings.
Back in the 90’s fitted Kieth’s lounge carpet,What an absolute gentleman he was 👍Done us bacon sarnies at lunch and insisted we sat in the rather large kitchen to eat them, Top Man tipped us £50 for the job too 👍👍
Amazing chef
Made me all teary eyed when you talked about your son and dear old mum, mate. Lots of love to both of them. I’ve followed you since you began and couldn’t be happier for you, Gary. This was my favourite video you’ve ever posted. I remember your battle to stop saying ‘naan bread’, and I told you then, as a Pakistani, as long you enjoy the food with a smile on your face, nobody cares! Here’s to 100k. Cheers, mate!
I remember your comment and that was very kind of you!! I've stopped saying it now luckily lol. Thank you for your kind words
Well, well Gary, that for me was your best video so far, The "Son" moment actually brought tears to my eyes, as a Dad myself. The only thing you need to do from now on is ........ Exactly what you have been doing since day one fella, be you and we watch ... 🥰
Thank you for your lovely words and I'm sorry to make you tearful
@@GaryEats good tears matey !
I’m new to your content and simply cannot fathom why anyone would troll your content. You are honest, likeable and enjoyable to while away a tea break
That is very kind of same, but unfortunately, I did receive an awful lot of abuse
Remember the golden rule,treat others as you’d want to be treated!
Couldn't agree more
What if your a masochist
UA-cam's nicest UA-camr has just got even nicer by declaring himself a Guinness drinking Liverpool Fan. An absolute Legend #ynwa
Up the mighty reds
Ill buy you a guinness if you ever come to Belfast @@GaryEats
Lovely to hear that your son is the cameraman, always great to hear about a healthy Father and Son bond 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Kev!!
I’m a Brit living in the U.S. and I watch your reviews. I suppose you help to serve me as another connection to my homeland. I like your no nonsense reviews and your kind and gentle personality. Sending you, your son and mum all the best. I, too, have a mother with dementia and it’s no easy life for her or for those of us who care for her.
Thank you so much
I find him to be a warm, loveable man.
He's very natural, and charming.
God bless Gary
Thank you for your kind words Barry
You're a good man Gary family comes first, especially if it's you Mom Cheers to the camera man too.
Thank you Tony
We should thank you Gary. You're a breath of fresh air. No ulterior motives, no BS, just great fun and honest reviews. Keep it up, you're a must watch
Thank you for your kind words Stuart
I simply adore your channel .
Myself and my sons watch you without fail , your positive energy is infectious . Keep doing what you are doing 😊
That is very kind to say my kindest regards to you all and please have a wonderful Christmas
i think this is probably the first comment i’ve ever left on a youtube video but gary, you truly are one of a kind! there’s something so familiar having you on my screen that brings me great comfort; i thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and it’s even lovelier knowing that your son is the camera man seeing as i watch these with my mum! i can’t even begin to wonder what possible negative comments you’d get on any videos because you come across as such a kind and genuine soul :) your animation as you speak and your honest opinions make you feel all that more real rather than just a man on a screen reviewing food- keep being gary!
What an absolutely lovely comment thank you so very much, regards to you lovely mum please 🌹🌹
Gary that was so heartfelt and honest, love being part of your and our Gary Eats community :)
Thank you for being part of it
I'll say it again - we all wish you were our dad.
We love you Gary. Please keep going. We'll all watch it.
Gary as my Dad....? Umm....
Let's give it a go! ;)
That’s so kind and lovely thank you
If he was my dad he would be over 100 years old,I don’t wish that on gary
A Liverpool supporter, Irish stew and Guiness and total respect for the workers and servers. You are an absolute gentleman, ive just found this channel in the last week and its cheered me up so much Gary
That is very kind to say thank you very much, Joseph. YNWA
Massive massive massive respect to you Gary for looking after your mum. My wife is doing the same 24hours a day up in Northampton and has been for nearly a year. Unfortunately that means because of the cost of respite carers etc. I only get to see her maybe once a month and just for a few hours. Since I’m still unable to drive on medical grounds it’s even harder. I couldn’t be more aware of your personal challenge. Good on you old fella. My respect for you has just gone through the roof. Great Q&A too. ❤
Thank you for your very kind words. I really wish you and your family all the best.
If any of you are wondering what Gary's real name is, and I'm surprised as I thought it was common knowledge, but if you don't know, it's Gary Legend.
It's actually where the word "Legend" cam from.
Jon that’s a lovely comment thank you very much
@@GaryEats you deserve it. I love the channel and you’re such a top bloke.
You always buy crisps for everyone when you get a round in.
A serious illness forced me to abandon plans to spend retirement travelling the world and savouring other cultures and cuisines. You Tube and outstanding content creators like yourself have enabled my wife and I to still have these experiences. This gives a purpose and meaning to life that would otherwise be relatively empty. Thank you. But for all the thousands of UA-camrs and video choices for some reason we settle on only a few to watch regularly and I never stopped to think why. This video nails it……you are a really nice guy and our subscriptions are to people who are genuine, honest and caring, just like you. You obviously have your share of life’s challenges but you have your priorities right and it’s so refreshing to hear of your commitment to your carers role and your son. Keep up the great video work but continue to keep that sense of balance and perspective….don’t become a slave to subscriber numbers as you will always have a loyal following just as you are. Best wishes.
I’m so sorry to hear that you are unwell that’s not good to hear at all. I so very much appreciate you following the channel and for such a wonderful comment thank you and I send you both my very best wishes 🌹
Hi Gary…
Please no sponsors. This can leads to a slippery slope. The reason why I love and watch this Channel is because it’s very personal and uniquely interesting.
The content is excellent as it is.
It’s just my personal opinion. Ofcourse I don’t mean to overstep or anything.
This was a lovely video. Very nice to get a glimpse into your world too!
PS my mum had dementia too. Very tough to deal with… all the best with her.
No sponsors do not worry, have no need for one!
It's not going to be long to get to that 100K and beyond. You're a natural when it comes to talking to the camera, and your genuine and honest warmth and empathy is a huge attraction for viewers. You're like the best mate everyone would love to have! There is a simplicity about your videos that make them very relatable and watchable. Don't go too 'snazzy', it's then viewers start to lose that connection through a diminishing authenticity. Great great work to you and your son....and what a lovely heartfelt reveal!
I really hope so, thank you!!
What a wonderful guy and a wonderful community we have here. Hope everyone hangs around for a long long time. Nicest comment section I've ever seen online.
I agree loads of lovely comments Aidan 👍👍
Please don’t ever change, you come across as throughly decent with a great sense of humour and I have nothing but admiration for how long it takes you to respond to your Gary Eats community! It is so appreciated. Also finding out that your son is the cameraman makes it even more special. I know I’ve told you before and I’ll say it again I absolutely love this channel and you only have to look at your increasing number of subs to know that many of us feel the same☺
I won’t change I promise and thank you very very much for supporting the channel 👍
Jaffa Cakes are cakes because they go hard when stale. Biscuits become soft. This was tested and reported on several years ago. And as I have now stated many times, I think your Channel is fantastic Gary, and I agree with others that you are the nicest, fairest, most honest reviewer online and one of the most watchable and entertaining.
Thank you 🙏
There is nothing better than a bond with your Son, tomorrow I will be teaching two of mine how to fish for pike,.
Perfect way to spend a weekend mate! Enjoy
@@PaulFromBrighton Thank you Paul.
Thanks Tris, have a good weekend
Gary i think it's beautiful that it's your son who is the camera man! Also I'm genuinely sorry to hear of your mum having dementia that definitely can't be easy for you one bit and yes you only have one mum who deserves all the love and respect you can give her! Thank you for sharing a bit more about yourself i enjoyed watching this video! I wish you and cameraman and your mum nothing but positivity peace and love ♥️
Thank you for your very kind words, that's nice of you to say
@@GaryEats absolutely no worries gary.i have to say tho 10 hours to go through the comments sections god lord that's a hell of a lot of hours for sure.thank you for taking so much time it's greatly appreciated! Positivity peace and love ♥️
Gary you should've seen the smile on my face when you revealed the cameraman's identity! What a joyous and brilliant revelation 😍 Gosh, if I loved the channel before now I adore it even more. This was a wonderful peek behind the scenes; you continue to brighten the lives of so many people. Much love and respect.
Thank you for your kind words
Thanks for the video Gary. I always wondered who the cameraman was. Sorry to hear about your mum. She’s lucky to have you looking after her.
Thank you for the lovely comment Pamela
The Gary Eats Community! Love it! Thank you for this video and keep up the fantastic work!
Thank you for your kind words
Bless you, Gary, for taking care of your mom. I am the sole caregiver for my almost 93 year old grandmother who also has dementia. It's a heartbreaking disease, but the Lord knows she's taken care of me long enough - now I can return the favor. It's impossible for me to travel or take even the shortest of vacations, so I totally understand your travel predicament. BUT, being from the US, I can't wait for you to come over here & show me some American restaurants that I have a chance to try. But, keep taking care of that mom of yours & give her a hug for me! And, keep up the amazing job you're doing with your channel! I never miss an episode.
Ps. I always thought that the cameraman was your son! What a sweet reveal!
Thank you, you guessed correctly
Gary, so glad to hear the cameraman is your son because my daughter and I often discuss who he might be and it was my daughter who worked out he was you son. I can't wait to tell her she was right,she'll be really chuffed. Keep 'em coming please Gary, we love your videos. ❤Lyn and Sally x
Thank you for your lovely words Lyn and Sally!!
Bless you Gary for sharing the identity of the cameraman. As a father myself this drew a tear. He is lucky to have you too.❤
We are lucky to have each other 👌
What an incredibly endearing video. I'm proud to be along for the ride, Gary. Thank you so much for all that you do.
I'm so thankful you've joined me on this ride
You're such a natural on camera and very relatable.
I think it's great that you look after your mum. As you say dementia is incredibly tough on everyone but looking after a loved one can feel like a privilege.
I enjoyed your Q and A video today and look forward to many more episodes in the future 👍.
Thank you for your very kind words
Best thing about Gary is that he’s a really, genuine person. That’s why we love the channel 🙏
Thank you for your kind words Eric
What an absolute gent you are Gary I wish you all the very best moving forward and success with the channel.
That’s very kind to say, thank you very much, Dave
As a Leeds fan I forgive you Gary 😀 Seriously, you are one of the nicest guys on UA-cam....wishing you massive continued success on the channel, just never change
Much appreciated lol
This Q&A video has further compounded my belief that you are an all round good egg.
Keep it up, 100k subs round the corner.
What a good man you are Gary! Absolutely loved getting to know you more and hearing about your mum and son, so much respect for you. Now we just need a Q&A with Mr Camerman 😉
Thank you for your very kind words
This is sue from Australia Gary, just wanted to tell you that I loved you before watching this question and answer video, but I adore you now, they broke the mould when they made you.
We need more people like you in this world, especially now.
Keep up the good work, I will definitely keep watching, even though you make me feel home sick for my mother land.
That is such a kind comment to make Sue, thank you very very much and thank you for watching from Australia 🇦🇺❤️🌹❤️
Evening Gary thank you so very much for the fantastic Q and A vlog. You have done so well and I love watching you because you are so natural and a lovely guy. You really perk me up if I am feeling low. You are so interesting. My passion is food as I mentioned before had a cafe/bar, had recipes published in mag and book. It was so good of you to tell us about your mum and son. Hope you go from strength to strength and I shall watch every one! Hope one day to meet you as it would be a pleasure. Suex
Thank you for your kind words Sue. I really hope you're doing well.
I think there is one thing we can all agree on. You are a really lovely guy. You’re funny, interesting, down to earth and honest. Can’t ask for anything better than that. We love you Gary and thoroughly enjoy your videos. Keep going and lots of success in the future. Xxx
Thank you very much Lyndsey a lovely comment xx
You took me by surprise when you said 10 hours per video to reply to comments. You seem such a genuine bloke, and it shouldn't be long before you hit 100k. I love the style that you do your reviews and is such a refreshing change to see that on UA-cam
It takes a very long time but I said I would do it
An absolutely brilliant channel, an example to others and a fantastic father/ son team....
Thank you very, very much
What a nice man Gary seems, comes across in his videos
Thank you for your lovely words
100% not an 84.4k UA-camr, you deserve 840k! Genuine, great content - don't change!
Thank you for your lovely words
Enjoyed this Gary! Nice change from a review and great to know a bit more about the man, the legend, Our Gary 😁
Thank you for your lovely words
Of course Gary's favourite band is food related.❤❤😂😂. And if I could not respect Gary and this channel anymore than I already do, he posts this video which just confirms what a wonderful man he is. And the comment "They are leaving someone else alone" made me well up. If I get asked who is my favourite food reviewer, that is now very easy to answer.
Thank you for your lovely words, you're incredibly kind and sorry for making you tearful
Just watched your Q&A Special with my wife, and 'as always', it was entertaining and very enjoyable. I think people watch this for two main reasons - obviously to hear about where to eat and what is on offer, but also because you come across as honest and reasonable. I imagine most would agree, but please don't change the way you provide this information and your style.
I won’t Craig and regards to both yourself and the good lady
@@GaryEats such a gentleman ❤️
Aww Gary , you and your son make such a great team and what you said about him brought a lump to my throat. Your channel is a joy. Thank you both.
Thank you for your kind words Miss Delia
Hi Gary and camera man, Just watched your Q&A video and it is so nice to hear someone say "i am not a professional" - and that you appreciate viewers comments. You far exceed the rubbish on TV with so called 'professionals' and it's refreshing to see honesty on your reviews. The o2 was an eye opener and my wife who is an excellent cook said that the cold buffet should never put cold chicken re heated on the buffet ... no wonder your stomach was iffy afterward after eating in the o2 (I am not mentioning which buffet) but we won't be going there anytime soon ! Keep giving it a try Gary. You are well deserved that UA-cam award for 10k subscriber. OUR SCORE to you today: 10/10
That is very kind to say thank you very much, Stephen and regards to your better half
Gary, A lion never loses sleep over the opinions of sheep. When I see a real OG become successful, I can do nothing but appreciate !
It’s hard what you do. Putting yourself out there. Respect
Edit: glad to hear you’re a fellow red ! There’s tons of food spots in Liverpool!
Coming to Liverpool very soon and cannot wait
Gary you are a legend a genuine nice person and thanks for revealing who the cameraman is 👍🏽
Not a problem
I totally respect you for looking after you mum, that made me emotional. I did the same thing. You only get one Mum 💕
Thank you for your kind words Rosie
Gary, you've outdone yourself here. I had a mountain of respect for you and your channel prior to watching this, but you've taken it to another level. Father son partnership adds an extra layer of special to your channel, and the fact you look after your mum so well is very admirable. Lastly, your comment about trolls and how they're leaving others alone is a true mark of your character and integrity. Keep up the great work, all the best, from your friend here in New Zealand.
That’s a really lovely comment thank you very much my friend 🇳🇿🇳🇿
Good on you for taking care of your mum and I wish her the best!
Thank you, very kind
