Celebrity Graves - Unusual Things 

Some people think walking about cemeteries is a bit odd, but I find it fascinating and well…..peaceful. Having very recently turned 50 myself it’s made me think more about life… we’re all here for such a short time.. so make it a good one. Another quality upload mate 👊🏼

Roger Lloyd Pack deserves flowers for the joy he brought to us all 💐

It is always sobering to be reminded: this is how we all finish up, regardless of our wealth/power/status, death levels us all.

My mum knew Roger Lloyd Pack, she always said he was a lovely man and a real gentleman. She worked behind the scenes in a theatre so she met quite a few well known people but he stood out. She worked with him a few times and always spoke so well of him.

It’s awful that the celebrity graves are so badly kept,yet I’m sure there families are enjoying the wealth they left,hardly any fresh flowers,Jeremy Beadles,and Triggers graves awful 😢

this channel you've provided is a god send to all those people who watch this channel but cant make a visit to the graves of these well known people, but you actually make it happen for them.well done

Nice that your videos are so respectful, and you have an engaging tone for the viewer and reverence and warmth for the deceased. You're helping keep their memory alive, with a great and informative mini-eulogy slotted in for good measure. Good work.

I owned a wedding car hire business and once I had taken the bride to the church I would spend my time walking around the graveyards while I waited. They are bittersweet but always interesting, I can honestly say Highgate is depressing, terribly kept and utterly bloody bleak. These souls, famous or not deserve better than this grim place!

The cemeteries that you visit are absolutely gorgeous and peaceful. I love the history that you give us. Thank you

I met Ugo the footballer, he dated one of my work colleagues, and would come into have his hair cut,he was really nice, I remember looking at the scar around his head from an injury. It was such a sad shock hearing about his passing... Just makes you think...we never know what's around that corner. Thankyou for sharing, you are very respectful and speak so nicely of all the celebrity graves you find..this cemetery is so beautiful, r.i.p to all who have gone to the spirit world, may you all be at peace. Godbless 🙏

The condition of Jean Simmons, Jeremy Beadles & Roger Lloyd Packs graves look terrible & unkept what a shame

I used to think I was a loner when it came to visiting grave yards. So good to see I’m not on my own. I do enjoy watching your cemetery visits. Maybe it’s time I subscribed. Thank you for your travels, keep at it. 😬

Can’t get near some of the celebs when they are alive…but can literally get within feet once they’ve gone…what a world we live in…make the most of life

A great stroll, enjoyed that. When you got to Roger Lloyd Packs grave the first thing that came into my head was something Trigger might say. Always go to other people’s funerals Dave otherwise they won’t go to yours. 💯💫👍

I’ve been to Highgate cemetery a couple of times. It’s worth getting a free map of the cemetery when you pay to go in, which gives you a lay out of where the most famous graves are. It’s very helpful if you want to be sure of finding them. 👍

I used to do the night security at Highgate Cemetery in the early 90s, a fascinating place, but best seen in daylight and that is a fact!

Just found your channel by accident but really enjoyed this one. Definitely subscribing. Nice to see you being respectful of the graves.

Thanks so much Paul for the visit and we can see Roger & Jeremy’s grave stones your research into all these you do is amazing Paul thank you

'But most of all he hated That place that hangs on Highgate Hill, Of soaked, Carrara-coloured earth For Londoners to fill.' John Betjeman's 'Portrait of a Deaf Man', a poem about his father. A wonderful poem. Thanks for your work.

Thankyou Paul. That was so interesting and the cemetery is so big. All those people lived their lives and sadly all gone now. Oh that’s life. So many stories and yet the famous ones still live because we see them on the telly. Thankyou Paul once again. 😊

Haven’t a clue why this popped up in my recommended but good video and I subbed

Great video thank you for sharing, On a side note it's so sad to see Roger Lloyd Pack's grave looking so I don't know 'empty' almost forgotten!! And so out of the way amongst all the overgrowth :( For such a huge much loved character for many growing up he deserved a better spot and more love put into his memorial stone.

Not sure how I came across your channel.. Strange what some people do, or should I say, many people think it’s strange. I’ve always been interested since a child.. ( 51 this month ) I still enjoy walking around them, so peaceful. That’s a huge cemetery. Thank you for sharing ✌🏼

I love Highgate.. the long dead and the recently deceased all side by side, caressed by nature. It’s a special place.

Paul, I stumbled upon your videos today and I am fearful of cemeteries and graveyards. I just wanted to say thank you for them. You’re really helping me with my fear. ❤️

Trying to figure out why I was actually mesmerised watching this video 🙂I love looking at gravestones, the dates when they were born, when they died, how old they were, always feels peaceful in a cemetery, not morbid just peaceful, Malcom McLaren wow 😁

I was a gravedigger for a while. You learn a lot reading the stones

Very sad. Great people. They should not be forgotten

I think a visit to the grave of Lord David Sutch in Harrow would interest a lot of people - he was a character, entertainer, musician and politician. Thanks for all the visits so far - they're brilliant !

Where I live there’s a few celebrity graves and I find it odd that when they were alive people would hassle them for autographs and selfies yet their graves are left unkempt and in a lot of cases with no flowers on . Upon death they became the same as the rest of us

Great respect paid to everyone you talk about, brilliant. I like to think of them all chatting and discussing amazing stuff they've seen and done. May they all rest in peace.

Another fascinating tour here paul thank you ❤❤❤❤

My friend used to work at Highgate and restored so many of the vaults and memorials . I did security work on halloween , can’t say I ever noticed anything spooky sadly though

Just got recommended this channel from the ol RU-vid algorithm. I like the unusual stuff and the fact there's no unnecessary nonsense around your filming I.E it is what it is and I'm showing it to you. Nice one mate.

The guided tour of Highgate Cemetery West side is absolutely fascinating and well worth the £15 - we’d highly recommend it 🙂 great video, we’ve now subscribed 👍🏼

I really do enjoy watching Paul do this. I find it really fascinating, and if I am honest, calming, I really enjoy watching Paul and the information he gives us into that celebrity. Thanks Paul

It's like going around an antique shop!

I used to listen to Jeremy Beadle’s brilliant late night radio show on LBC as a young teenager in the 1970s before he became famous on TV. Along with Kenny Everett’s Breakfast show on Capital it is still one of the best radio shows I’ve heard he was much better on radio than TV in my opinion 👍😎

I don't go often but I do find a cemetery a great place to reflect and think about things. I went to school with Jeremy Beadle's neice

Thank you for sharing this and thank you for all that you do I think you are Amazing

Just found your channel and now I'm hooked LOL! as you were in Highgate cemetery, and also have an interest for the supernatural, did you look for the place where the Highgate Vampire was supposed to be, from what I remember they debunked the story but still bricked up the catacomb entrance with mortar made with holy water and garlic which makes you wonder?

What an amazing place Highgate Is .I've never been .it must be atmospheric there and peaceful

Mr Lloyd Pack is equally famous for the vicar of Dibley , and Mr Crouch from Harry Potter series . Much missed in our household as we watched him and was our favourite.

Hi there Paul…..I spent ages looking for Triggers grave in a local churchyard at the village he used to live in here in Norfolk…..no wonder I couldn’t find him! Had NO idea he had been buried in Hyde Park London! Tut! The things you learn on this Unusual Things program!! Regarding the words at the bottom of his stone, “Hookey Street” was the last line in their theme tune The Nags Head, but not the rest of it

I came here yesterday, to find George Michaels grave , paid my tenner and got a leaflet showing me where the famous graves are , was shocked there’s no flowers etc on most graves , George’s have a sign saying only family flowers allowed , nice place but found the massive tombs very creepy, no one else was there

Hi Paul I also like cemetery's they are so peaceful. Thanks for the shout out.

Jeremy Beadle was my Dr cousin's best friend. I have Met him and have one of his books. Thanks 4 sharing

You're very easy on the ear and on the eye!! I believe 100% that anyone who had zero interest in graves, would soon be so if they watched you. I'm a new subscriber, and will definately share your videos. Thanks for what you bring, and speak with due dignity and respect. cheers mate. Respect from sarf London!!!

Super video Paul keep it rocking 👊🏻 Awesome iconic graves there ✨

Great work.keep it up.❤

Thank you, I watch many (perhaps too many!) graveyard tours, and I like your style, informative, respectful. Very enjoyable

Only just found your channel. Very interesting stuff! Keep it coming! :)

Hi Paul,love your calmness and respect to graves you stumbled across. As one of your followers mentioned Jeremy Beadle was on the radio,I too listened to him. I would love for you too find Kenny Everett, fantastic on the radio n clever comedian etc. Keep the good work going my friend ,cheers Mike😊😊

I love your RU-vid channel Paul. You are very caring towards the grave. But it’s heartbreaking to see how bad some of the grave’s have been left. I always look after my loved one that have passed away 😢

Hi Paul 😊 Thank you for your great video 😊👌🌹🌹. Cemeteries are so peaceful 🙏🕊️🕊️🕊️

First visit to your channel... Really enjoyed that mate... Liked and subbed. 😁👍👍

Amazing cemetery with brilliant history to it. One of the great seven or something. There's also the story of the Highgate vampire. Hammer horror filmed there a few times, the beginning of From Beyond The Grave is probably the best example. Definitely worth a visit. The amount of graves and bodies is staggering.

Thank you for sharing your video with us I really enjoyed it keep the videos coming

I visited Highgate last year and I'm desperate to visit again and take another tour. The history is fascinating and it's simply beautiful. I spent a very long time looking for Roger Lloyd Pack's grave but sadly couldn't find it. I felt he was a big part of my childhood and wished to pay my respects. But I'll definitely look again on my next visit.

I’ve just been back tracking some of Unusual Things and the stars that have sadly 😢now passed. And didn’t realise just how many have succumbed to cancer. And quite a few that I didn’t know had passed. It certainly puts things into perspective. Given the times we now live in. When you look back. You’re really good at what you’re doing. And I really enjoy your channel. I’m of a certain age now. And it’s really good to look back over the years. Keep up the good work 👍All the best to you.

Great and very interesting video. For anyone wondering the last line of the wording at the bottom of Roger Lloyd Packs headstone is a quote from the theme song from Only fools and horses... of course that being the brilliant iconic sit com that Roger played Trig (Trigger) for many years.

❤hi Paul Thank you for your time and for sharing these videos very very nice to see. I have been there myself.❤ And you have pointed out certain celebrities which I have not seen today but will be looking forward to finding them in the near future. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful videos.❤

Jean Simmons was in "The Thorn Birds" She played Meggies mother, Richard Chamberlain was the priest. Great actress

Brilliant as always Paul. Some great names there 👍

Thank you for these videos. I would love to visit England one day, and walk these graveyards but as a special education teacher in Alaska, it would be way above my pay grade!

Loved it mate, great video Paul

Great video. I found Roger Lloyd Packs grave by chance as I visited with an Australian friend who wanted to pay respects at a grave that turned out to be nearby. (Sorry, I forget the name of the notable Australian). Was a great place to visit, to remember those who are no longer with us and as I did the tour, learn about others. Side note, also a fascinating array of different art styles and the creativity often forgotten as gravestones are seen as macabre.

Hi Paul , Thank you an amazing place, can't believe how cluttered certain area's look, I guess if it's an very old cemetery then that can be expected. After starting recently watching your RU-vids it's becoming addictive. One thing I've noticed is the word's people choose to have on there head stone's, that in itself could be a series on it's own. Tells you a lot of what these people wanted to be remembered for. One comedian comes to mind and he wrote ( I told you I was feeling sick) or word's to that effect. Love your work, keep going.

Just come across this by chance. Interesting video. Love watching graveyard treks. Look forward to seeing more.

What an absolute gorgeous resting place. I watch the ones in the usa but this one is so different and beautiful. Thank you for taking us along. I could listen to you speak all day, your accent is so easy on the ears. 🇨🇦

Hi just subbed as I find cemeteries lovely, quiet and fascinating places to spend time. Love the way you are very respectful to all you find. Can I just say that the first one on your list (can't spell his name!) I believe was a Bulgarian dissident that worked in British TV. Please forgive me if I'm wrong. X

I really enjoyed your visit to Highgate Cemetery it's a place I'd love to visit.

I've just found your channel. You do graveyard walks like i do. I've loved graveyards for years 😂 my family say I'm kinky lol. It's a harmless addiction. I just love those mausoleums in Highgate and the imposing stone pillar entrances. As you say, very Walking Dead vibes....i love that too 😂 seems we are well suited to explore together 😄

1st video ive seen of yours..hit the subscribe straight away..great video

the only thing i cant get my head around is some of these actors are absolute legends yet they are literally stuffed in the middle of nowhere in packed graveyards with basic stones such a shame roger lloyd packs stood out pretty basic in a random built up area

Rip Jeremy Beadle....thank you for all your charitable works, especially with Reach.....❤🙏

Just came across your channel, really interesting, I often look round graveyards, I find them fascinating. Thank you 👍🏻

I’m now going to put you on my TV, I’m writing down notes, I’m hooked👍👍 mx

Really interesting, your presentation style and knowledge work well together to keep the deceased in public memory.

I have no idea why the algorithm showed me this video. But glad it did. Great video. Highgate Cemetery certainly looks like and interesting place to visit. I have subbed.

This has been a very realistic video for the observer. The skillful presentation makes one feel as if there. The content is enlightening as I view it from Dallas Texas, USA

Excellent video, when I lived in Paris I spent many an afternoon strolling around Pere la Chaise.

Malcolm McLaren, wow! Great find! And geremy beadle..brilliant, 100th big like!

Great content. Have visited many cemeteries around the world and find them so interesting. Pat

Great video, so interesting. Yet to pay to get in, "for the upkeep," i have to say as someone who deals in grounds maintenance, the upkeep looks pretty bad from my point of view

Just found this.... Really gribbed and moved by your video... A lovely insite to seeing where famous people are now resting in peace... Great thanks Paul.. 👍🙏

I'm surprised how bad the celebs graves are just goes to when you've dead everyone forgets you unless your really famous like Elvis. Sad really isn't it 😠

Just found Your Channel Amazing stuff! Thank You one of the best channels of the genre.

Shocked to see the state of the graves of showbiz people who gave us so much pleasure in life! Deserved better.

Fascinating! Thank you for your channel. My mom would have loved it. My mom, my aunts, and .myself use to love visiting Cemeteries! We loved reading the stones. And the older the Cemeteries, the more Interesting they were.

Hi Paul. Thank you for another fascinating upload. I find your videos so interesting and always done with the utmost respect. I wonder whether you would be interested in visiting the grave of T.E Lawrence ( Lawrence of Arabia). His grave is in a very small cemetery in the village of Moreton in Dorset. An easy grave to find and a man with a fascinating story. Thanks again Paul for all that you do. Tim.

No idea why this popped up, so glad it did now subscribed really enjoyed it. 😀

Roger Lloyd pack- first word/name that came to my head was DAVE 😂😂😂😂😂😂 poor Rodney trotter 😂. What a legend roger was and still is and he is one of my favourite comedy actors ever 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Loved that .x

Amazing cemetery, such great legends resting there. Got quite a gothic atmosphere too. So many stories. Hope it's not a daft question have you had any paranormal experiences while exploring

I love the videos they help me with my depression days remembering all my childhood celebs xxx❤❤❤❤

wow amazing cemetery

Love your videos mate so respectful and informative keep it up

Great video I love them all some sad graves some good one

I was dismayed at the state of some of the cemetery and wondered who was in charge of looking after it.
