    A very young George Cole plays the young Scrooge in the best film version released in 1951, A Christmas Carol, one of my favourite films ❤

    A great actor George Cole. Irreplaceable like so many. I liked the picket fencing and archways at the beginning. Liked all the things he was in and a handsome fella when he was young and as an older man. We had a friend who was the image of Dennis Waterman as a younger man. Thank you Paul as always.

    Hi. Thanks for the upload.
    I don't know when you recorded this, but my partner & I visited Reading Cemetery/Crematorium earlier this year & last year. The 1st time we visited was to look for him.
    We phoned the company why own the Cemetery & they informed us they own 3 in the area & could 100% confirm he isn't in any of them. The family took the ashes away
    If I'd known, I could have told you.

    Hiya Paul my favourite line off Minder was they were going to France for bottles of alcohol, they got stopped at customs" Arthur Daley, major share holder, my friend here is a alcoholic , we just put him in the back of the van when he's had a drop or 2" I was howling, this is Choppy

George’s relative comes to live with him and meets ghost from the past. It’s a lovely film. It’s when George was older. I remember many of the films and dramas he was in. Thank Paul ✨✨✨✨✨✨

    Hi Paul,
    Another great video. Well done for still making this film despite no memorial plaque to show us, true dedication to the cause! Obviously, George Cole is best remembered for Minder and as you point out he had roles in my many other productions in film, radio and TV. One show you didn’t mention that sticks in my mind is ‘A Blot on the landscape’ where he played Sir Giles Lynchwood, very funny! A synopsis can be found on Wikipedia for anyone that isn’t familiar with this TV comedy drama. Anyway, as always, keep ‘em coming!
    Best wishes,
    Mark
