As a child growing up I used to watch Dick Emery on TV with my mum and Dad, on a Saturday night. Fond memories of times gone by ,may he rest in peace ❤.
I love him on tv but I do not no w stars die the graveyard are a mess I pay my poll tax and look at some graveyard can you till me do we let the graveyard go to shit
He passed away on my 10th birthday, loved his humour, although all through his show my nan would sit and tut. RIP lovely Mr Emery, great work on the channel as always❤
Hi Paul, I go to that churchyard regularly and clean and tend to two graves close by to Dick Emery’s grave. I can confirm that it is the original stone which has just been cleaned. It’s amazing how they can come up using the correct materials. I cannot take credit for the clean but I did contact the family around a year ago to volunteer to clean it. It must have sparked them an idea 💡 Great work as usual Paul 👏🏻
Wow , I can't believe he's been gone so long .I used to watch him with my late father , which was nice as dad didn't laugh very much . Thank you for that Dick ,Rest in Peace sir .
I loved this guy when I was a kid he always on Tv very funny I had 3 favourite's when I was younger ...Dick Emery/Morecambe and Wise and Benny Hill ..wish I could go back in time back to the good old days
Thank you Paul . You mention he was a keen pilot and I read somewhere he flew his Tiger Moth to a party he had been invited to landing in a field next to the house, imagine that happening nowadays , he was Some boy alright , I grew up in the 70s and loved all his characters some of which wouldn't be allowed in today's society. A real talent .
Lovely memories of 1970s TV, watching with mum and dad. So funny. Sadly a sign of the times that so many churches lock their doors now. Nice that someone cares to renew his stone
Thanks Paul. I still laugh at Dick Emery clips every day on Twitter. You'd never know he had stage fright. He always came across as very confident and funny. Wasn't there a story that after his death his body went missing?
A time when comedy really was comedy and we were free to enjoy it , sadly all thats gone now Dick was so talented and have such a range of charachters to portrayal, glad to have lived in a time when he was at his pinnacle
Thanks Paul another fantastic show.yes dick emery omg he was a very very funny man who bought so much laughter into the lives of millions of people.he was admired world wide for the array of characters he portrayed R.I.p Dick emery and thanks for all the laughs
going up in the 70s to what a great lot of laughs he gave us,his drag queen clips were so funny and what a great funny man is was hard to believe he's been gone 40 years now.
I used to like the skinhead character he played along with with Roy Kinnear as his dad. Especially the sketch where he throwed a brick at a Jeweller's window and it bounced back and knocked him out! When he came round he said "I got it wrong again, dad", as he would always get things wrong.
Wat a character so funny a genius in comedy such laughter he brought to our screens an into our living rooms rip dick emery true comic thanks Paul 👍👍👌👌👍👍👏👏👏👏
He was an amazing comic and wildly funny.I adored watching him.My close friend and neighbour had a friend to stay for a few days whilst they were away.I saw this young guy leave the cottage a few times.I found out later that it was Dick Emery’s son.Probably Nicholas as the age would have been about right.Just down the road from Walton-on-Thames.A lovely resting place and so peaceful and rural.It seems he worked incredibly hard all his life.I’ve such fond memories of watching him.
Another great tribute to a very talented comedian Paul.. I used to watch him with my mom and dad on a Saturday night..he usually was on when generation game..or Eric and Ernie or Mike yarwood were taking a break...really funny and a bit undervalued in my opinion..he just made us laugh with his characters and make up😂...a very nice church and peaceful resting place..cheers Paul..hammergazz
I'll resist the urge to say it, but I will say I'm very much looking forward to your visit and tribute to this wonderful comedy great. lol See you at 7, Paul! 😎
I went to the same school as Dick Emery's son Nicholas. We were both at Arundel House School I Surbiton until we were 12 or 13 years old. I went to his house at Thames Dutton several times. Once for his birthday party. He had a smashing tree house in his back garden.
Thanks for this, my friend. Life is so strange as he died on 19th May 1983 and on the 9th May 1983,I left my beloved Inner South East London to move to this house in Outer South East London/Kent just 11 miles away. In 1972 in my first Central London job I was talking about Dick Enery and my Pakistani friend: thought I was talking about a "Digger Murray" lol
A great character actor that those of us of a certain age will remember very fondly! One of the kings of Saturday night TV viewing, when you switched on BBC1 for Basil Brush and stayed with the channel for Doctor Who, The Generation Game, etc, and finished with Starsky & Hutch or Kojak, then Match Of The Day and Parkinson. If you're lucky, an episode of Bilko too, then closedown!
Dick Emery's character of the vicar was emulated I'm sure by Harry Enfield's character of a vicar with the teeth. Such a pioneer of caricatures was Dick. Cheers Paul, 67...blimey no age really these days
Loved it Paul, and seeing you drive in at the start and off at the end. Dick was great, made us laugh, and that's a 'gift' ! "Paul, You are aurfull" ❤❤
Ahhh Paul, such wonderful visit to a legendary great of British entertainment. He absolutely was an influence on some later comics who became icons of British comedy. It was great to hear that he brought you so much joy from watching his hilarious show in the 70's, he certainly had a wonderful gift for making people laugh. Thanks for another lovely video, it might sound weird, but your graveyard visits really do bring some joy to the day. lol :)
Another excellent episode- thank u Paul for bringing back happy memories. Used to watch Dick Emery as a child in the 70s/80s. Very funny man and those characters and their catchphrases have stayed with me all these years later.
A comedy genius indeed , loved watching his show made us all laugh he was so funny , I remember saying his catch phrase so I could push my friends lol. I didn't know he was such a ladies man just goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover. Loving the cemetery especially the rabbit that was a lovely extra, shame the church was closed. Thank you for sharing as always
Brilliant comedian the 70s were so so good with Tommy Cooper, Morecombe and wise, and Dick Emery and many more, well done Paul another brilliant vlog,cheers mate.
❤❤Thank you so much for showing the grave of dick emery. He was a very funny man. He is sadly missed by everyone who knew him. May he rest in peace. Thank you once again Paul ❤ ❤
Thanks for the fantastic video Paul. I really love to watch every video if I have time for that. Have a great week and take care. Greetings from Germany Melinda
Used to see him around Walton on Thames on his various motorbikes. He also came to the Police families Christmas parties at Walton Police Station in the late 70’s every year. Great entertainer.
Thanks Paul for the video. Dick Emery was one of the best of the best, his characters he portrayed were done to perfection, goodness knows how many takes they took. It’s a shame he suffered so badly from stage fright, I read in his biography that he was often physically sick at the thought of going on stage. Died really young, and never to be replaced. RIP Dick
What a fantastic video Paul, I always loved watching Dick Emery , still do watch him today he was such a talented actor, I love seeing him do the women, Wendy for one & the one were she's after a bloke for a bit, ha ha you know what I mean, your a great guy Paul & do us all proud with your videos, I must say you rise early to get to these Cemeterys, all the best Paul ........Dave from Birmingham
Hi Paul I agree with you he was a comedy genius and very funny loved watching his show as a kid shame we don't have these kind of people around anymore anyway take care stay safe m8 👍
My Dad took me on a trip to Castell Coch (in South Wales), & we couldn't go in as Dick Emery was filming there! That was early 80s. Thanks for another interesting & respectful video.
Hey Paul lovely video as always. Agree he was a very funny man. Always watched his shows shame he didn't stay with the one woman. RIP SWEETHEART. Xxxxxxx 🌹🌹🌹
He was funny I remember watching him with my mum. He certainly had a full busy life . Died young such a shame. Thanks for sharing love from Holmfirth West Yorkshire 💙💚
Thanks for this Paul, Dick Emery such a talented funny man loved watching him on TV when I was young. Loved his character the vicar so very funny, a big loss of comic genius may he rest in peace 🌹💓 ,
