"MONTY" A film by Derek Jones 1981 

A wonderful film about a Great Great Man

i can remember monty in the 90s .. he was certainly a character. pete hale would bring him to darts at the George in mitcheldean (only to put the imposing team off .. monty never shut up and had a real loud laugh ). i cant believe the amount of stick he had from the kids . saddens me watching this . ialways thought foresters looked out for their own

People were much nicer back then. Today the world is much faster. A wonderful film, well made, emotive and atmospheric, It deserves many thousands more views. Its real value though is as a historical piece, to show how drastically life has changed, perhaps not for the better.

Edwards Coaches, old Reg Hoskins, good memories. Dad always spoke highly of Monty and he should have been helped and supported when he needed it.

Aw, wonderful film about Monty, I dont think I ever met him, I came from around Cinderford and Ruspidge area. Shame your film was never aired on channel 4 :(

Sad in some ways, but what a lovely bit of nostalgia, how certain things have changed, but loneliness is still loneliness.

Monty was a middle aged man with learning difficulties in the Forest of Dean.

all of you pay respects to monty and his caravan

There's a memorial stone in Mitcheldean churchyard with "Monty" and about the right age/time period Would this be the same person ?
