In addition to the Trio and the other main characters Roy Clarke introduced a cast of semi-regular characters working in the town. Most of these officials are diligent and thorough - then there are the police, in a league of their own. Join me in the Yorkshire countryside and re-trace their parts in this record-breaking TV sitcom.
The year 2023 marks 50 years since the pilot and first series of “Last of the Summer Wine” were broadcast. This series of videos is filmed in many of the well-known, and some less well-known, locations seen in the programme.

Thank you for showing us how complimentary, these smaller-roles, played a vital part in the lives of the main characters and in the town itself. The policemen were always funny.

@gerardlacey9384 Год назад

Wonderful thank you. I met Ron Backhouse when I visited The White Horse on my visit to Holmfirth in 2000, I had two pints of real ale, and when I was leaving I thanked him and he bade me goodbye with the words, Goodbye friend!. Many thanks again for the lovely video. Best wishes. Gérard.

Great show, so sad most are gone

Not being a "Cyril" fan I never watched the earliest episodes featuring the various librarians. Good decision IMO to move away from the library and out into that wonderful countryside! Always enjoyed the scenes involving the policemen. One of the funniest moments was when Seymour, Cleggy and Compo accidentally dropped the mangle onto the patrol car, then retrieved it before the officers got back to their (now smashed) vehicle, leaving them wondering what happened. The barmaid references were funny as well, including the often-mentioned "her at 'The Feathers' ".

The mangle episode is brilliant but also love the earlier series, especially up to Sid’s departure, loved Sid’s times, reminds me of an England sadly changed forever.

Ms. Davenport's assessment of "The Whole Modern World" is Spot On.

Thank you for the obits, dates and pics. You continually up your game. Blessings.

@upstagedbyadog 10 месяцев назад

Thanks - yes, sadly, while trying to document the series and the performers, the videos have become something of an obituary, but I think this is a good way to remember them and the enjoyment they brought to people, worldwide.

@ladym6738 10 месяцев назад

Actually obits are a joyful memory or at best, should be. You guys do an amazing work. Funny a bit of fiction should be such a release / escape / reminder of a mythical past. Giggles and smiles to you.@@upstagedbyadog

@@upstagedbyadogI’m going to try to visit your beautiful country again in the coming year. Are there accommodations and other attractions in the area of Holmfirth? What is the proximity to other larger cities? I’m planning on visiting the village of Barsham. It’s supposed to be where my family name is derived. Thanks for your newly discovered videos! Very informative and interesting.

@upstagedbyadog 10 месяцев назад

@@shannonbasham4178 Hi Shannon. pleased you have enjoyed the videos. I'm not an expert on the general area, but there are lots of self-catering holiday lets in the area, and a fair number of hotels of all sizes. Most of the activity in the local area seems to be rural walks, and - despite or because of the hills - it is popular with cyclists. The nearest major town is Huddersfield, with Oldham, Barnsley and Sheffield, within about 20 miles.

Great video i do remember the late Blake Butler also appearing in one episode of The Good life where he played the part of a fruit and veg seller who i believe in the sitcom Tom Good was in competition with 😊

Yes, Blake was Ronnie Boxall, who had a small van and a very large assistant!

Yes, I hope to do other shows, but nothing decided yet. Thanks for reminding me, I have put the Cooper and Walsh links in the video description.

@@upstagedbyadog thank you. Barry, "are you afraid of old ladies?" cop, "no. just that one" referring to Barry's mother in law, Edie with just the right touch of fear. cracks me up every time. i also find the accents with their class distinctions fascinating.

Probably Roy Clarke liked libraries and spent some times in them. Ray Bradbury praised libraries for his education.

@alansmith1989 10 месяцев назад

If ever two characters did `not` work for me- it was `Probert` and `Jones` My view; a total `misfire` Thankfully (For me) they were only in Three episodes-and for me, that was Three too many! Apologies to any `Probert and Jones` fans- but not for me. Along with Tom Owen`s `Punk` family, just out of kilter with the spirit of the show.

@upstagedbyadog 10 месяцев назад

In series 2, I think the additional characters were still a bit experimental. I think it was felt there needed to be "real" characters as library staff, rather than some non-speaking extras. Of course the librarians and the library were soon to be side-lined as the Trio had other places to frequent.

@dixongreen Год назад

Great video I hope we get more videos. Plus do you plan to do other uk tv shows.

Brookside was never on ITV. It was always Channel 4

@MrDannyDetail Год назад

I suppose in his defence it was the second ITV channel from it's launch in 1982 until the end of 1992, before being given independence from the ITV network, so it's possible that people of a certain age do still think of it as being 'ITV' to some extent. But then again Brookside was made by an Independent production company, and not, as much of Channel 4's content was in those days, one of the 16 ITV companies.
