    George Hoy Booth ,Formby actual name,and was biggest film star in Britain from 1939 to 45,a huge thanks has to go to the George Formby appreciation society,as they maintain the grave,as in the case of the great Will Hays,as so many kids from 60s and 70s we grew up watching Formby with grandparents,and I still think there still some of the greatest musical movies ever produced,great video🙂🙂🙂

    The grave was cleaned and restored by the George Formby society some time passed. Beryl was cremated, she has a memorial some other place. A great memorial to his father, George Formby Snr. as a celebrity was a bigger star in his day to his son.
