Todays Famous Grave visit is to the comedian and Carry on film actor Frankie Howerd.
Francis Alick Howard OBE (6 March 1917 - 19 April 1992), better known by his stage-name Frankie Howerd, was an English actor and comedian.
Howerd appeared as Francis Bigger, one of the lead characters in 1967's Carry On Doctor.
The success of the film version of Up Pompeii in 1971 saw British exhibitors vote him the ninth most popular star at the British box office that year. He would play versions of the character Lurkio in Up the Chastity Belt (Lurkalot), also in 1971, and Up the Front (Boot Boy Lurk) in 1972.

A cemetery is not just a resting place for souls. They are a walk through life stories. A stress free walk. Thank you. RIP Frankie Howerd🕊️

@geoffpoole483 Год назад

Wise words.

@annfahy2589 Год назад

Lovely sentiments❤

@denniscattell Год назад

Those of us who grew up in the 70s and 80s were so very lucky, we had Frankie Howerd, Morecambe and Wise, Les Dawson, Ken Dodd, Dick Emery, Benny Hill, and Warren Mitchell as Alf Garnett, all on the TV regularly back then, in new shows and repeats of old. Truly the golden age of TV comedy! And Mr Howerd was a comedic giant, we'll never have his like again! Thank God for the DVDs and for TV repeats! And thank you sir for this vid! 👏👏

@HaydnGuite Месяц назад

A absolutely brilliant comic and a lovely man off screen. He still stands as one of the greatest we've ever produced. God bless you Mr Howerd and thank you ❤ 😊

@SunshineMix101 Год назад

😎 His deadpan expression, coupled with his excellent comedic timing made him one of the very best of his era. RIP Frankie,😎

Hi Paul Frankie Howard is one of the old time greats

@Kari_B61ex Год назад

"Titter ye Not" and " Ohhhh No Missus" - such an excellent comedian. I remember watching and laughing with him in Up Pompeii and the Carry on Films. A sad loss to British comedy.

What a fantastic artist dear Franki was, his timing was perfect his expressions made us laugh even when he was not acting. His bushy eyebrows his ever-changing toupee a man greatly missed. I loved that church I felt I was inside it. I really like your filming Paul you give a great feeling of actually being in these locations you visit. mmm!! the door I agree I want one for my haunted doll room .

@Greenwillow Год назад

Oooh! I love Frankie Howard especially in Carry on Doctor loved it that he landed up married to Joan Sims at the end. Remembered that he passed at the same time as Benny Hill. Thank you.😉

@gaynorsmith7680 Год назад

Hi Paul, looking forward to this one. Frankie was one of a kind. Xx

@geoffpoole483 Год назад

Never knew he was a Normandy veteran. For that alone Frankie Howerd deserves respect regardless of whether or not you found him funny. His style of comedy was quite unusual; most of his contemporaries were gag merchants (think The Comedians) but Frankie Howerd relied on monologues. He probably influenced a lot of modern comedians. I wonder how his life would have turned out had he been accepted by RADA. Have you thought of looking for Kenneth Williams' grave?

@Sanddancer1 Год назад

kenneth williams ashes are in the corner of a flower bed in golders green

@jameswaugh2150 Год назад

Kenneth William's was cremated and I also believe Paul mentioned it quite a few times wheres been were the ashes were buried on some of his old videos

@pamelahall1495 Год назад

Lovely video Paul …I loved Frankie Howard in up Pompeii…he was a legend…Lovely little church too …Cheers Paul 👍X

I'm still a big fan of Frankie and watch him often. My auntie went to see him live and said he was absolutely hilarious and people couldn't stop laughing. Just wish I'd got to see him. Thanks for the laughs. God bless you, Frankie 🙏 ❤

@pennyadamson9534 Год назад

I love frankie howerd thank you Paul very much. For all the videos

@dimmak1375 Год назад

I live not too far away from here. I've cleaned his gravestone and placed new flowers. He was a natural funny man!

@dimmak1375 Год назад

His partner of 40+ years, Dennis Heymer is buried quite close to where Frankie is.

@vanessalouise8988 Год назад

@suemckenna2430 Год назад

Although not a fan , He was more of my parents era , have heard his music and youre right he couldve been big like the stones and beatles. Its really nice to see how well kept his stone is , but like you say not everyone has relatives or family to tend to them. Thanks again Paul , please carry on doing the great job you do. !

@richardcharman6668 Год назад

Thankyou for another great video Paul I really liked Frankie Howard 👍

@suemckenna2430 Год назад

Good to see a church with original pews instead of chairs , another great informative video .Thanks Paul

@markdigby6690 Год назад

Paul. Can't believe the miles you travel. Amazing. Ime 61 and remember Frankie on the telly...he was do funny. One of the greats of comedy. I think Davud Walliams played him in a BBC dramatisation of his life ...Thanks again. Respectively researched...I love these walks through beautiful grave yards and churches. Look forward to the next one.

@oddsandwindsocks5905 Год назад

Hi Paul, lovely to see Frankie's headstone well kept after 30 years. Church restoration is looking superb.

@joeweston3252 Год назад

Hi paul frankie was fantastic in the carry on films my favorite memory was that clip where hatty jacs pulls his jim jam bottoms off when he refused a strip wash hilarious always makes me laugh lovely old church 🙂

@Finglesham Год назад

That was a very impressive memorial to Frankie. His death and that of Benny were overshadowed by both occurring on the same weekend. I like Up Pompeii. What a lot of great actors all together. Never get anything like that now would we? Bah humbug. Thanks Paul keep them flowing.

@annettemingay2970 Год назад

@alisonwilliams1873 Год назад

Frankie had an interesting life and he was a very funny man. I got the feeling he had issues with depression. It must have been so hard to have to hide your sexuality. Thank you for sharing his resting place with us Paul. Frankie is buried in a lovely churchyard and church.

@SaltimusMaximus Год назад

Grew up watching all the greats like Frankie Howerd, Kenneth Williams on Just a minute on the radio on Saturday was amazing, and the others, incredible talents that just do not exist today, watching them now always makes me laugh, these modern panel shows we have today which are supposed to be comedy fail badly

@berylsavage929 Год назад

Its so sad that frakie Howard,Benny Hill and my dad all died the same Easter weekend April 1992 both of the above were my dad's favourite funny men of all time all 3 sadly missed R.I.P.

@CauliflowerMcPugg 2 месяца назад

During his military service, he was based for a while at Shoebury barracks Shoeburyness Essex. Now turned into houses. He still makes to laugh . One of the greats.

@DoubleDeckerAnton 5 месяцев назад

Watching this after the 1990 BBC programme 'ARENA' showing Frankie Howerds life. Interesting to see this, where he was finally laid to rest.

@jamesmcbride6304 Год назад

Yea funny talented guy thanks Paul

@Ihfmpw8 Год назад

I remember the line“ Washy time Mr Bigger” from one of the Carry on films, Mr Bigger was about to be given a bed bath….I don’t know why but I found this line hilarious… I don’t know why,perhaps he replied “Ooo No”. I still say to myself washy time mr. bigger when I go upstairs for a bath. ( I think I have several screws missing.)

@betagombar9022 Год назад

Thanks Paul for yet another great video. I loved the carry on films (my secret crush being Sid James 😉) who didn't love a bit of Frankie Howard 💕

@scorpiochris3635 Год назад

The man was brilliant his slapstick and innuendo on his comedy was second to none with perfect timing and not many people could do stand up for a long time he was one of only a few

@gingerninjawhinger9986 Год назад

Frankie Howerd was a genuine comic genius; his asides to camera always seemed natural and were always extremely funny. RIP Frankie. 🕯

@johnjones-henderson3249 Год назад

Nice video that paul frankie Howard fantastic so funny up pompeii carry on up the jungle remember him in that but I liked the way he starred at the camera when a comment was made that reaction to the viewer very clever not many do it Oliver hardy started that trend just looking at the camera after something happened frankie did it and spoke that for moves his trademark rip frankie howard a fine comedian god bless you

@UnusualThings1 Год назад

@jacquelinedavies1776 Год назад

Frankie Howerd was always in Wales I remember he came into the shop I worked in we had a great chat & I kept thinking to myself "your familiar" he had a blue & red nylon shopping bag & he was so friendly not once did he let on who he was & we spoke about allsorts for about 20 minutes when he left my boss Said that's frankie howerd he was very quiet & unassuming but a very warm chatty man

@philbaker6837 Год назад

A few years ago my cousin's wife did the Howard family tree. She found out that Frankie Howard is a distant cousin through my grandmother Florence Eleanor Howard and her sister my great aunt known to me as aunty Pop. My cousin's grandmother I am very proud to be related to Frankie Howard sadly I never got to meet him but I loved to watch him on TV.
