Anything on Titanic grabs my undivided attention. Good call Paul.❤. I have studied this ship since I was 11 years old. Defo got to do a collaboration. Scott rocks.❤❤
That was a double whammy that easter weekend 31 years ago Frankie Howard and Benny just 24 hours apart... R.I.P. to two National Treasures. Remembered today and Always.....
I loved watching Benny Hill while I was growing up, very funny man, we all know he drives the fastest milk cart in the West. Rip Benny, also god bless Frederick Fleet rip xx
His shows were costing £450.000 to make per episode and his viewing figures were dropping and he wasn’t prepared to change anything so they got rid of him all together. Very sad because his show was his entire life but in the tv industry when you’re hot everyone loves you but it’s short lived. He was left with a fortune of 10 million pounds but it meant nothing to him.
Benny Hills grave was robbed after his burial because the papers reported he was buried with lots of gold. When he was re-buried they placed the heavy stone on top to prevent it happening again. Very sad
@@paulguise698 it was rumoured that he was buried with gold and jewels and the newspapers then reported it. That night grave robbers dug him up and opened his coffin. Yes it is illegal but unfortunately newspapers reporting rumors is perfectly legal
Paul, I know the cemetery very well. The Roman Catholic Canon who married me to my first wife lies near to Benny. In addition, my paternal family lie nearly as well! I was born in Southampton but you will be pleased that I follow The Hammers! Thank you for an interesting episode! Bob
Hi Paul, just managed to catch up on this video. How wonderful to see a titanic survivor there, and I use to watch benny Hill as a kid. He was and is a legend 🙌🏻 Love your content as always
Thank you Paul for showing us around the all the famous graves Benny hill was so funny so sad we have lost a lot of funny people it’s never the same anymore so interesting Paul 🥰
I love the idea of the Titanic graves, may I also suggest that if ever you are in Kent, near Rochester, take a trip to a small village called Wouldham and in the church close to the door is Walter Burke - he was a purser during the battle of Trafalgar and is known for holding Nelson during his last moments on board HMS VICTORY to this day the school children of the village lay flowers at his grave on Trafalgar day . Sadly Walters home no longer stands in Wouldham, but it’s certainty a nice place to visit with the river Medway running along at the back of the graveyard
What a wonderful idea to do a live chat while also filming at a cemetery. That's bloody brilliant, man! Totally love the idea of it. If memory serves me correctly.. Then again, it might not.. But is this the first time doing this? If it is, please keep doing more. You're onto something Paulie 😊 Cheers! -Jerry
Hi Paul.There is a statue of Edward Smith, Captain of the Titanic in Beacon Park, Lichfield, Staffs. Born in Hanley, Stoke on Trent, there are various stories as to why his memorial stands in Lichfield, 30 miles away from his home town.
Benny Hill was my favorite and my introduction to British comedy here in the States. I know I mentioned this before but Benny Hill was my nick name at uni...apparently I have the same beady eyes. 😵💫
Thomas William Jones was a Titanic survivor. Born on Anglesey. He was ordered in to lifeboat number 8 by Captain Smith to row away the ladies in it. One of the passengers was the Countess of Rothes who was very vocal about what he should do. He apparently put her to work in steering the lifeboat. They remained in touch following the disaster. He is buried in Liverpool Anfield cemetery and crematorium. His niece was my grand-aunt Jane. Not a blood relative, just by marriage.
Hi TJ i remember walking up Nelson Column at Llanfair PG when i was young and seeing sea cadets below ! Wonder if T W Jones spent time there B4 meeting Captain Smith ...i cant imagine what he though the last moments when screams became silence ! with Love B Jones
@@brynjones7507 they must have been the trainees at HMS Indefatigable when it was a school. You can’t climb the Anglesey column at moment due to restoration works.
Hi Paul, hope you're well mate. Loved Benny Hill, He was so funny ! Loved his song Ernie The fastest milkcart in the west ! RIP Benny Hill And Frederick Fleet 🙏🙏🕊🕊
Very interesting subject to find the graves of Titanic survivors! I can't wait to see more. And btw I do follow Scott's channel. He is very good at what he does and gives so much detail. I appreciate what you both do!
after seeing your video of benny last year l had to visit his grave and thank him for so much fun and entertainment.very sad the amount of people who died on the titanic who lived in southampton very moving visiting the museum in southampton.
Top video, Paul. One of the last Titanic survivors was Eva Hart who lived in Chadwell Heath in Essex and died in 1996. She was cremated at the South Essex Crematorium, Upminster and her ashes are buried under a tree in nearby St Chad's Park (Chadwell Heath). There is a plaque at the tree with her details on. There is also a pub called The Eva Hart in Chadwell Heath High Road, Romford. These are all very close to each other and would make a great video mate.
Frederick Fleet must of witnessed so much on that fateful day images that haunted him all his living days. The Titanic stories have always fascinated me 😞
Getting spooky as I've been same location as you but still not bumped into you, great videos. Please keep up good work. Always interesting and a must watch
Hi Paul, sorry missed the live, nice to see it now. I am about 5 minutes from Hollybrook. I am going to have my partner's ashes buried there soon in the cremation graves section, he died in January. Frederick Fleet's grave is beautiful. I sometimes take Benny a few flowers and after Gordon is buried I will do so more often. Lovely video, nice to see Hollybrook featured.
Enjoyed this one. Must get stuck into my family ancestry again as I am descended from a Fleet and have always been curious if Fredrick was a relation. The picture I’ve seen of Fredrick has a striking resemblance to family members descended from the Fleet name. Titanic challenge sounds fascinating!
Thanks Paul for another interesting grave. Benny Hill. There won't be another Benny Hill..So sad. As you can see, I'm doing a lot of catching up. Reason? So buzy. The amount of funerals amongst the black community I've attended since the year began, it's probably about 30, others on stream, because some were on the same day. Friends say I should do my own video streaming 😂😂. Brilliant podcast Paul, keep it going. May Benny Hill RIP.
Hi paul another cracking vid it would be brilliant to do a titanic special i find it interesting and sad. I follow Scott on tape top bloke you should get together. And not forgetting benny comedy genius i still miss him. R.I.P. Benny.x.
Hi Paul very good video as usual. I remember when you first did Mr. Hill. My goodness, I guess I've been watching you from the beginning. Take care and stay safe till next time. ❤
Hi Paul, what a fab challenge and I've been watching things about titanic this past week when I can so thankyou for Fred fleet grave visit rip, and aww legend benny hill 🎵he drove the fastest milkcart in the west🎵😂 big miss of watching him with my dad legend to me much missed 😢 and I watch Scott too, he fab and I just watched his viper room tour lastnight well early hours so that was good and would love to see him and you together here showing him another legend grave George Michael so that I can't wait to see, love how down to earth you are when your saying about your glasses and technology not my fortay either so i'm the same (my age lol) so take care Paul watch where your walking 👍
40 years ago I lived next toThe house in the background at start of video , where Frederick Fleets grave is was then just a field full of forest shrubs even though it isnt a forest area. (that house is on Lordswood Road) Memories and all that, Dan😁
Cheeky sod! In bed?! Some of us were working! 😂 Great challenge, and although Wallace Hartley didn't survive the Titanic, his violin did! Extra bit of interest with that story! Not only did I miss you, I missed Scott too! 😢
Hi Paul. Have you ever thought about trying to get into a crematorium to film behind the scenes? You'd have to do this during office hours normally, and ask the crematoria permission but they usually are eager to facilitate visits to dudpel any myths. It's extremely interesting having done this several times around the West Midlands whilst showing trainee police officers the death process. Maybe your viewers would love to see what goes on? I know you have plenty of funeral director or cemetery staff followers, maybe they could assist you?
I'd suggest you'd either telephone ahead of your visit, or turn up and knock the door and ask. You could also ask the crematorium grounds staff-I've found them all pretty helpful. Lodge HIll crematorium in Birmingham are very good. Good luck with this. Love the channel. Al.
Fred died only a few years before us guys most of us was born!nice to see he lived after the titanic disaster ,bet it haunted him throughout his life he was fifteen on titanic ,bet he had a tale to tell.great video Paul ,yes glasses essential but a pain when you mix them up half windows one pair full windows pair of glasses carry two different pairs.a rumour about benny someone dug into his grave when just interred ,they say !to look at him and take items a terrible rumour I believe true😮.wish it wasn’t true ,benny hill such a friendly soul bit like you Paul.
Hallo Paul War heute morgen vom Chat überrascht!!!! Konnte nicht teilnehmen!!!! Hatte keinen Zugriff auf diesen Chat. Leider Habe eben das Video angeschaut . Danke Paul 🙆🙏
On the end of my street in south Wales 🏴 there's a water mill where Artie Moore was the first person to hear the SOS from HMS Titanic there's a little plaque on the mill
Hiya Paul, I don't know if I've told you this but my 3X uncle worked on the Titanic, Uncle X worked for a company called Cowan And Sheldon based in Carlisle, Captain E.K Smith went down with the Titanic, good luck with your Titanic survivor quest, on the RU-vid channel called Know Where You Walk, there's a vlog about the Titanic, if you haven't seen it, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumberland, England
After some digging Alan is in Ramalley Cemetery, Eastleigh. I've emailed the clerk to try and fund exact location. Alan used to party at my mums parents in Mereside, Blackpool in the 60s when he plated at Blackpool so I'd like to know too. I've had a reply saying Eastleigh Borough Council deal with enquiries so I've emailed them. Let's see. We know now 😉
Apologies for missing the live. With the recent tragedy on the news I was watching a RU-vid with Tony Robinsons trip to the titanic with James Cameron last dive. Was an interesting watch but made me think deeply what happened that tragic night.
I used to live in Eastleigh and Alan Ball was in a pub we went to once, not sure if he ran it or it was his local. Also saw Charlie George one time near Winchester ⚽️
Have you thought about going to the Titanic memorial in East Park, Southampton? It is near the traffic lights opposite Watts Park and the big War memorial. There used to be the bird cages next to it, but the birds have all gone now.
I fixed Jackie Mudie's headstone (Blackpool & Stoke) if you're ever up in the Stoke area and cleaned up the stone of the developer of the finger print (Henry Faulds) Different cemeteries but fairly close together. I can get specifics to you if you ever want it Paul.
It may have been better to explain who Alan Ball was. Not sure how old those guys were or if they are interested in football of course. They still probably wouldn't have known though I suppose. Great video, thanks. 😊😎🎸🇬🇧🇺🇦
