So nice that these two wonderful gentlemen are together forever ❤
Compo, cleggy, foggy, smiler, Barry, marina, Glenda, Nora and Howard. I’m 40 this year and still love it to this day.
Thora Hird was wonderful in it too. What an actress she was. Loved this show...❤
How nice to see the two graves side by side and in such a beautiful peaceful place 😊
A fantastic resting place for two great actors RIP😢
I can watch this show over and over. Still enjoy it and allways can make me smile
I watched an episode of last of the summer wine, just last weekend. It was the episode where they were planning compo’s funeral. I have to admit, I shed a tear. I noticed to that Peter Sellis was a bit teary eyed in places. They were clearly good friends, but I didn’t realize how close, being buried next to each other. Rest In Peace both. And thank you. Thanks to you too Paul for a great video.
It's where he catches his words and it's obvious he's stopping himself from crying. There's 4 episodes about Compos death and all of them were a trial for him.
Did you see the one where his Thursday lady (Liz Frazer) is found?
She says "we go back a long way"
A hint at the shared history of Carry On films where they overlapped in Carry on Cabby and Regardless?
@@lsmith992 yes I saw all 4 episodes. And yes I noticed the long way back comment. I remember the carry on films too.
I was so sad during both of those episodes, but what a tribute to COMPO
Love the theme tune, takes me back to Sunday evenings in my late 20’s knowing it meant the weekend was over and it’s work in the morning. Lovely that they lie next to each other in their final resting places.
Never missed an episode I still watch them today I never tire of them loved to have met them for a cup of tea in side cafe
Timeless actors. They just don’t come any better.
Very moving video I have watched last of the summer wine repeats over and over again and they always make me laugh. Bill and Peter we're brilliant as compo and clegg such talent that we shall never see again
They maybe gone but never ever forgotten ❤
I just love these two actors they were so funny and Last of the Summer Wine was not the same without them plus Wallace and Grommet loved every episode they were in RIP guys ❤️
I'm from Australia and first saw them while on a trip to the UK in 1984. Loved them for their gentle humour and the way portrayed that they would not go quietly into the night. I am 72 now and this show seems to grow more relevant to me as each year passes. In fact this coming October will be my last trip to the UK and I will go up there to see the town they made famous and their resting place.
What a beautiful tranquil place to be laid to rest two good friends next to each other. A moving tribute beautifully told and lovely restful music in the background. Respect.
I met Bill Owen in 1981 when I took school pupils to see a panto he was starring in. He was great with the kids and a real professional.
Nice to see this one they were fantastic and will live forever in our hearts they made us SMILE 😃
Back in the early days of this tv comedy it was very hard to beat, just one of Sunday evening treats as a child.
A touching tribute to two fabulous men
Paul thank you so much for showing the final resting places of 2 absolutely brilliant actors. It brought tears to my eyes. ❤❤
Lovely that they're barried next to each other. A lovely fitting memorial.
Rest in peace Bill & Peter thank you for the laughter.😅
as a boy i watch last summer wine without fail sadly most the old cast of actors have passed on shame really not same without them all 2 great actors side by side in life now at rest together bill / peter R.I.P.
Till this day I still watch Last of the Summer Wine used to love watching compo Bill Owen Legend rip❤❤
Me too- have every episode on DVD.
They made first of the Summer Wine before Last of the Summer Wine
Nice to think that the two of them are together and still having a giggle, RIP Bill & Peter, 2 lovely gentlemen
I'd always heard so much about their amazing friendship and that was why Peter ask to be laid to rest near his best friend. Thank you so much for taking us along to visit.
Brilliant tribute to those two legends, i was born in 1970 and they both entertained me for most of my life. They still entertain my children, with clean humour and a good story.
I remember watching a documentary a few years back about Bill and Peter. Bill used to say to Peter during their breaks filming summer wine that he wants to be buried in that church yard. He said it was so peaceful and such a beautiful place, they were such close friends that Peter requested that he be beside Bill. Two great characters in summer wine along with Brian Wilde, the episodes starring them three were definitely the best.
I think any show that has several changes in cast over the years will always find a definitive lineup. Compo, Clegg, and Foggy were Last of The Summer Wine’s.
I loved Last of the Summer Wine. I grew up watching it. I'm 57 now and never got bored of watching it. So many things to laugh at many a time of wit and comedy . Thanks for showing us their resting place. RIP guys thanks for the memories.
Two great comic actors who's comedic timing was impeccable.
Dearly missed but never to be forgotten.
Thank you again Paul for another great memorial and as always with great respect..
So many people grew up watching Last of the Summer Wine. It was a staple of UK television for over 30 years. Even when I was at university, I would still watch it every Sunday! Great video, and it's really nice to know that such great friends are buried next to each other.
It's 23 May 3024 I was lucky to find "Last Of the Summer Wine" about over 5 years ago on PBS. WHAT A SIMPLE WONDERFUL show. I liked everything about it. The laughter I get watching makes me feel so good. I try to enjoy life everyday, like Compo, Cleg and Foggy. May they Rest in Peace!
Thank you!
What lovely graves and tributes . My grandfather knew Peter Sallis very nice man . I will always remember him for bringing Ratty to life in wind in the willows . He did a very gory Hammer Dracula too . RIP ☺️
Both actors gave so much happiness to so many people! I lovely place for them to RIP and also to be together.
I can watched last of the summer wine over and over never gets old 2 legends friends together forever x
Two all-round wonderful actors and genuinely nice men. It's lovely that since they were close colleagues, Peter decided that he would be placed next to his best mate. God rest their souls Thank you Paul ❤ 😊
Now this is quality. ✊🏻
Thank you for a wonderful tribute to two seriously good and funny actors. I was at their graves for the first time recently. I had been looking at the LOTSW museum, the cafe and other sites with my wife, huge fan, so thank you.
Have fond memories of this show. I loved all the characters. My aunt and uncle visited the filming locations several times. My uncle even had the theme tune played at his funeral. Thank you Bill and Peter for all the laughs, bless you both.
One of my favourite shows last of the summer wine ❤
They became such good friends that when Bill passed, Peter insisted he be buried next to him when his time came. My dad loved the show so much we played the theme at his funeral on 27 Dec 2021, shed a tear every time I hear it.
Absolutely a privilege to watch all of these and again without doubt , wonderful tribute to these 2 fabulous actors …
Love the church also so stunning the stain glass ..
Thanks always Paul for a truly respectful vlog , much love as always 🥰x
Its always overlooked that Peter Sallis also voiced Ratty in The Wind in the Willows series.
Love this,show, watch all the time❤
Everything stopped on a Sunday evening for last of the summer wine!!! Watched and laughed as family that continued on with my children. Bill and Peter where like night and day totally different but the joy they both gave was timeless, even too this day watching them both brings back so many memories. I for one will never forget the slap stick humour and more importantly the memories I have today.
Fantastic video as always, keep up the great work and we all respect your dedication.
R.I.P BILL AND PETER THE LAUGHTER STILL ECHOS ON!!!

These two icons of British TV where undoubtedly two of the best actors that always put a smile on my face, I watch the reruns as I did when they were first shown, its a great pity that there are not any more series like these, so thank you Bill, Peter, and all the cast for your outstanding contribution to comedy, rest in peace, god bless you all.

This show and these two in particular have helped me thru some dark times over the past several years. I of course never met them in life, but I felt as if they were my old friends. Thank you for doing this video.
Cemitério muito bela homenagem obrigado
Wow, you went a long way to bring us great content and to honour these greats! You're awesome Paul! 😊
@@David_Mc_Our_God_Reigns Hi 👋🏻
CANT WAIT PAUL ACTULLY LOVE THESE TWO GUYS NICE ONE I ACTUALLY WATCHED LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE SERIES 👍🥀
A marvellous and funny programme, with a perfect cast.l love both Peter Sallis and Bill Owen. RIP
Two amazing actors that brought so many tears of laughter, Massive THANK YOU Bill Own and Peter Sallis and may you both Rest In Peace, I bet they would love that they are buried next to each other. Wow I don't think I have ever seen a cemetery on such a steep hill like this cemetery is I bet it's a bit tricky for the grave diggers and the funeral coffin bearers.
Lovely tribute to Bill and Peter, and very interesting facts about much loved actors.👍😊
Thank you for filming this. Two great actors over many decades. Worked together for so long on summer wine and together again now in that serene churchyard.
Watched an episode of Last of the Summer Wine once and didnt like it so never watched anymore. You portrayed them as great actors which I'm sure they were. Went once to the cafe in the town known as Compo's cafe and had fish and chips that were nice. Beautiful church Paul thank you xx
Man I am a black guy came up in the late 70s and 80's. Me and Mom and my brothers would watch Maryland Public TV and the Last of the Summer Wine was our favorite show them Guys were so darn funny. I miss them old days,man so many great memories...
Two great men, i smiled most of the way through most of this video, they were so funny, it's heartwarming that they are side by side, imagine if Kathy was with them too, they'd get up to mischief scaring people lol. Everyone knows Last of the summer wine and everyone know Wallace & Gromit..very funny shows, loved them. Thank you for putting a smile on my miserable ☹️, rip Compo & Clegg..you both will always be in our memories and our hearts ❤
Great short video, thank you for sharing. I watch at least one episode a week as this was harmless, non-offensive comedy that all the family could watch. I am going to have my own pilgrimage to the graves in 2024 during a trip back to the UK.
wow what a stunning location l am very fond of last of summer wine the belly laughs they gave us over the years and still do some of the stunts compo did left me in stitches and clegg was always shy it seemed to me both excellent actors peters voice on wallace and gromit was truly fantastic.
Rest in peace bill owen and peter sallis❤❤
A beautiful place to be laid to rest ,my grandad died in 1980 and he used to chuckle away at last of the summer wine ,everytime I saw this programme it reminded me of my grandad chuckling away ,it's lovely that Bill Owen and Peter Sallis are buried next to each other, good friends even at the end it seems
Thank you Paul, pleased you made it up to Yorkshire I'm in Leeds too. Two great legends together forever 🙏❤️
Brilliant video Paul thank you. What a fantastic friendship these pair had in life and in their final resting place . God bless them and RIP . Thank you
Mentioned this to you few days ago many thanks' Paul mate. Hope to go there one day to pay my resects to these wonderful gentlemen who have brought me so much joy.
Thank you for sharing another grave visit. Most Sunday afternoon’s I used to watch them. A beautiful legacy to leave. x
Beautiful tribute thanks for showing there resting places with dignity &charm&respect
Great tribute. Loved Bill & Peter in Last of the Summer Wine back in the day and still watch the re-runs on TV now and again. Incidentally Kathy Staff is in the same cemetery as my parents at Dukinfield. My missus got her autograph for me at a local table top sale she attended for her church charity. Lovely lady.
Beautifully and respectfully presented as always, well done Sir.
Mrs H 🇬🇧 .. What can I say Paul but thank you...Two amazing men resting together.. It's always sad when those that we grew up watching are no longer here...Bless You Paul.. This is sad but also a pleasure to watch...❤
Watched LOTSW for years, back when the classic trio of Compo, Clegg and Foggy were the main stars.
It's sad now to think most of the stars have gone from the early years of the show.
Loved this one, Paul. Thank you very much.
You always show respect for the people that have passed.
Look forward to your next episode.
Lovely respectful dedication to two brilliant actors. Paul brilliant filming of a beautiful location. They are resting peacefully.
So close! I would've put the kettle on for ya! 😁 Looking forward to this one. I presume you just had to look for the wellies?! 🤔😆
Fantastic tribute to 2 fantastic people. Great video well done 🙏🏼
Once again Paul a great tribute to wonderful comic actors in a brilliant series of a last of the summer wine a gentle comedy but wonderful scripts and great characters as always well researched and presented.the channel just gets better great work Paul.
Thank you for filming and uploading this - it brought back some happy childhood memories, watching this in the evening before school. RIP to both of them wonderfully talented men, the world is a worse place without them
You can
And buried together, how lovely. Great video again m8 better than TV.
What a great pair of actors the were and I still watch it last,of the summer wine I luv it
2 great comedy actors who just were fantastic in the show Last of the Summer Wine. Great little village Holmefirth and a great tribute to them both. Another excellent video Paul
Last Of The Summer Wine is my favourite programme. I've visited the grave of Bill Owen twice and it really is a lovely spot.
Another great video and thanks for visiting them.
Brilliant Paul and tastefully presented, another gem ftom you thanks Mate.
Peter Sallis was a very decent bloke, as far as I'm concerned. I'm an American who fell under the spell of LOTSW circa 1997.....Mr. Sallis and I exchanged a few letters, back around 1999/2000, before his failing eyesight got the better of him. His correspondence was always hand-written; he answered all of my inquires; and he gifted me several signed photos. Ultimate respect & affection for both men....!!
I loved watching last of the summer wine, and still watch it to this day…Compo was particularly a favourite of mine…x
Brilliant Paul,looking forward to this,love summer wine,still watch it today,thanks Paul xxxx
Thank you Paul. For another interesting Video. Keep up the good work. 💥
