- Paul finds out how our lives outside of work brought us together and sometimes tore us apart. Along the way, he finds out exactly where his working values were formed, not to mention those of archetypal working-class lass Lily Savage.
2 part series originally shown on 22nd August 2013.
RIP Paul, the world is less without you. I mean that, thanks for the laughs and for the love dogs. You’re in my heart forever.
Paul will remain a working class hero.
He never forgot his roots. A great Birkenhead lad.
RIP Paul YMWA
When I was little we had a bath once a week. But every morning we had a "cats lick" we washed up as far as possible, then down as far as possible, then we washed "possible". My aunt came to stay from America and we would say "mum mum she's having another bath, is she all right? Sadly today old people say they are glad they are the age they are, as they will not have to live to see what's coming in England's future.
Sadly the establishment have destroyed our communities.
Food banks have never been so busy.
I still only have one bath a week but then I don't get dirty!
its your funeral tomorrow and i am so unbelievably sad.. rest in peace Paul...xxxxx
Me too. 🙏
Me too. I’m devastated. I dedicated this to Paul

Near a shady wall a rose once grew, Budded and blossomed in God’s free light, Watered and fed by the morning dew, Shedding it’s sweetness day and night.
As it grew and blossomed fair and tall, Slowly rising to loftier height, It came to a crevice in the wall Through which there shone a beam of light.
Onward it crept with added strength With never a thought of fear or pride, It followed the light through the crevice’s length And unfolded itself on the other side.
The light, the dew, the broadening view Were found the same as they were before, And it lost itself in beauties new, Breathing it’s fragrance more and more.
Shall claim of death cause us to grieve And make our courage faint and fall? Nay! Let us faith and hope receive- The rose still grows beyond the wall,
Scattering fragrance far and wide Just as it did in days of yore, Just as it did on the other side, Just as it will forever-more.

as a son of a chef and factory working mother in a rough town in county durham in the "worst" estate in that town this has made my day, love being working class and Paul will be very missed! he was one of us
Paul actually makes me feel proud to be working class. I never felt like that before as my mother was a wanna be middle class person. We didn't have much more money than anyone else on our estate but she always thought she was better than them, she still does!
Me too! Crying watching this
I’m proud to have been Australian working class too because we had similar values as Britain when I was born in the 50s.
I hope Paul/Lily was greeted by his beloved Buster when he got upstairs, the worlds a quieter place, RIP
Yes , but heaven is more lively 😊
Paul’s definitely in Heaven , giving G-d a run for the throne ! . G-d needed a replacement probably, so G-d thought get O’Grady up here because I’m going to run Hell as that Devil’s gone too bloody soft ! . Buster is now an Archangel For All on a Solid Gold Throne with diamonds & glitzy priceless jewels.
And cilla
And Olga
thank you for uploading..I am a fellow Birkenhead native now an expat in the USA and watching Paul takes me back to my roots, It was cool to see Twiggy on the show also, I was a nanny for her daughter Carly in the early 80's
The world has lost a legend, a truly talented, lovely man far too soon. So gutted at the loss of Paul
Hi I live in Bebington originally from Bootle you would be shocked at the change on the Wirral
7:40
Heartbroken over this loss…Paul is a true British TV icon. We’re losing these legends way too early….
Just fantastic viewing. What a lovely down to earth man. Wish more of so called celebrities were or held the same values
Love watching Paul’s Videos . Still can’t believe you have gone God bless xx❤️
Really enjoyed this run down memory lane "
I remember moving into a new council house in the 1970s , and being over the moon that it had its own bathroom and central heating
I was cartwheeling down the street 😅 kids in our days don't realise how lucky they are .
This world won't ever be the same without you paul. God bless ❤
Liverpool lost another angel and so has the world he was a genuine lovely person who never forgot his roots or the people and gave love to animals without question.
Am going to miss him so much
Beautiful words Flip Radio 🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️

He was a kind man who, when he was young, looked after disabled children.
Birkenhead has lost a working class hero
Birkenhead angel❤
I don't recall watching these programmes when they were originally broadcast, but I'm glad I've now seen them. Many things for me to associate with my growing up here. Thanks for posting and RIP Paul. xxx
Thank you so much for these. I'm watching them all. I'm watching everything of Paul's I can and reading his books.
Me too , miss him so so so much
Paul is very well regarded in Ireland he's adopted because he had green blood running throughout his vains. RIP brother, Paul a legend 🌹😔☘️🇮🇪
What is it like now. With all the Immigrants in this country. Do they care
@@SHINBET666
Beautiful words.
Same. I still can't quite believe he's gone 😢
God Rest Paul O'Grady he so told the truth. ❤
Thank you for posting. What a beautiful man, Paul O’Grady RIP❤️ 57:18
I’m Australian and I think Paul was a real character. He was so versatile and engaging and so much fun. He bought light and laughter to millions and I can understand why he was classed as a national treasure…RIP you’ve left this world a better place from having you in it.

Thank you for posting lovely Paul and this wonderful program.

I'm so sad that Paul has passed away, he was taken too soon, what a wonderful man he was, RIP dear Paul❤❤❤❤❤❤
oh I loved Paul in everything he did wonderfull human being x x Rip
Paul loved Animals. Battersea Dogs Home should be proud of him. I loved Lily Savage 💯😍
A clean step and windows was an indicator of how clean the house was inside.
It was the same thing in Holland, those very white crochet curtains I remember well
These are great! Thanks for sharing ❤
We when we was children enjoy our simple life you never see much crying our mums and dad wokers strong being children to day many no respect always moaning they got more then we had. I happy to have been born the time i was born 1957. Paul you having a great time where you are singing comedy and fun and all the animals love sent to you.
Thank you Stephen, this is a great video highlighting the coronation celebration events in Blackpool. I'm sure lots of people will want to see the heritage tram parade, illuminations etc. I hope it's lovely weather, so that everyone can enjoy the music and al fresco dining. I wouldn't want it to rain on Charles' parade, but I'd love the Blackpool seagulls to fly down to London and do what they do best, it's meant to be lucky after all. 😊 xxx
Just wonderful. We were the same. My mum said if I get trouble. BABY WISE. SHE WOULD PUT ME IN A HOME. THEN I FOUND OUT SHE HAD A RARE OLD TIME IN THE WAR XX
Great programme!
My father was real working class. We had no shower, just a bath tub. Dad would just have a bowl of cold water in the kitchen sink, stripped to the waist, he'd scrub himself and wash his hair with whatever soap was available.
I believe that Paul o Grady is so right in every thing he says God bless you Paul if there's a heaven you are there ❤
Really good episode's looking back at history
What a lovely programme
fantastic
Im sure going to miss this gentleman mr paul ogrady rest in peace you beautiful kind caring gentleman x
This was great, thanks Paul xx
Brilliant programme and series and those proad guys on the 'Jarrow Crusade' the hunger marches down to London had me in tears........................ what they did and what was bought in by the socialist labour post WW2 Government and what has been done now to people and the country....... Want to know what it is like to feel poor switch off your central heating and you will be cold and there will not be an government help for the winter of 2023/24...................... Shame on those who have the privilege of being in government for us.............. and who have betrayed the many so bandly......... Wake up folks and smell the coffee?
Paul o'Grady should of been made prime minister! He would of sorted this country out ..there would be no poverty in 2023! He would of made sure the working class were treated fairly and didn't have to suffer! I feel we would of felt safe with paul at the Helm! Instead of these idiots who are running our country! And they will never understand poverty...paul ogrady understood poverty so he would of turned things around! ..
He should of also of been sir because of what he did for people and animals..
He's gone but jeeez he has left such a legacy ...what an amazing, kind , beautiful human he was!
People are not like him anymore, he was a rare being ..
Lets hope he's up there causing havoc with cilla and all those personalities he talks about ..but lets hope he is with his buster, Olga, bullseye and all his beloved pets.
We miss you paul ogrady..
❤❤❤❤🐕🐕🐕🐕
Legend.....like no other ❤️

I’m on my tenth iPad & CZcams is all full of gems . Thanks for uploading this. Absolutely awesome, sublime and bittersweet too . 🫶🙏🏻💯😭💔 so mixed emotions, I’m broken hearted , but I’m just hoping Paul is in Heaven happy laughing and giving G-d a run for the Kingdom & his “throne “ .

WOW, This takes me back! The History
i loved this programs when was on TV
Murray Melvin was a class actor r.i.p
To think of the fact that Paul was 57 years old when this series was filmed. Now 10 years later his live is finished. Dead and burried.

Cilla Black would die 2 years after this program.
Heartbreaking 😢
@@SHINBET666I agree❤
Thank you for making me laughed til I cried Paul.. as Lily , and in everything you did you were one in a BILLION ++++ I just loved you Rest In Peace you left us too soon ya wee Scouse git ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕🤩🤩🤩🤩
Loved this. 🥰
Like me Paul was a socialist and a animal lover I'm heartbroken at his loss the world is so much darker now rip you wonderful man
Love hidden spaces. Friend ran the Crown andAnchor in the 90’s which had 2 mothballed floors above the living area.
Scubing the step brought back some memories.
Absolutely spot on and it’s true, “Work is the curse of the drinking classes. Lol.
What a beautiful soul that good man is. Rest in peace peace, Paul, and rise in glory through the mercy of Christ .
My late mum was a 'scrubber', in a laundry, for a pittance. It was her pittance that kept the wolf from the door. Christ her hands were rough, it was the soda, I can remember being so hungry, eating crayons, chalk, soap and fish and chips newspaper. It wasn't that my parents were idle, they worked like dogs to keep a roof over our heads! Not easy being Irish, back in the 40s, 50s, 60s, etc, in England 😢
Whoa, having to eat crayons, chalk, soap and fish&chip papers to stave off hunger! When did your life change for the better? How did that affect the rest of your life? I was living a life of plenty here in Canada at the same time and to think of another little girl having to do that is just so shocking and sad.
What a corker…thank you for posting, from Preston 👍Proper spov.
I am going to miss Paul and that love of dogs
There's something about down to earth people, their much more interesting then the so-called posh, I love their values, and not needing a lot to be happy, ❤❤❤❤RIP Paul
12 out of 10 doll - looking great x
Nothing wrong wit normal life xx
Get those tower blocks banned & demolished, flats no more than 3 storeys above ground none below.
Being proud to be working class is a great thing. Because now it is all about being entitled none of us are
Sir Kenneth Arthur Dodd 8 November 1927 - 11 March 2018
Paul James O'Grady 14 June 1955 - 28 March 2023
Priscilla Maria Veronica White 27 May 1943 - 1 August 2015
Murray Melvin 10 August 1932 - 14 April 2023
The Bum flannel was orange in our house! Havent thought about that for a while!
The working class, actually had class, they were genuine, caring, honest people with a lot of pride, not plastic pretentious boring people, they appreciated everything they got, and looked after it, not greedy, arrogant bores.
22 August 2013 [ Rip Paul]
💖💖💗💗💓💓Jezzzsuss Paul I MISS u, big time! ❤💚💙💜🧡❤💖
You can say wat you like but those was the happier days .this country as lost the best people of this country. Its not a country i was brought up in today i remember the 50s 60s we had a good life .but if you was not a child in them days you will not miss wat this country had .
People looked after their own then, poverty was worse but people coped
Who knew Sir. John Major‘s not so dull & grey . Why didn’t John Major show this side of him in Parliament? . John would’ve been so much more popular and not so boring and drab .
Wonderful video ... when Britian belonged to the British
The decline in good neighbourhoods happened because of two issues, unemployment, drug's. Ripped the heart and soul out of working-class neighbourhoods. In my country Ireland and GB it has decimated communities. ✊☘️
Spot on 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯😔😭
What about the replacement of 'slums' with Tower blocks that wrecked communities, the arrival of supermarkets, the shopping malls, which killed High streets, the systematic destruction and asset stripping of traditional industries... I think that might be involved too?
Not because they were rat infested slums without modern facilities then?
😮I hope these two are together in heaven 😅
I hate Jeremy Kyle and his show!, well said Paul 👍👍
Everything is changed
Now is parking lot when his house was
And he is gone
I love that "the Guardian described me the thinking man´s drag Queen and other such patronising crap" - that comment just nails it. Speaks volumes.
Living now in Thailand The people are that poor When somebody died The whole village will chip in And help with the cost I have never been to so many funeral's I was born in Whetstone lane in Birkenhead
A taste of honey up the junction , this sporting life and georgy girl....all film makers should watch these films....hollywood ,🤑 no class
alway sat on that wall that van to left there shop was on conway st were the meadows pub was few doors down sold hifi record players tv radio's remember paul skinny tall lad i lived in bentinck st lower end
the white building was the "exmouth ale house"
Cilla didn’t show her ‘working class’ roots when flying BA First Class ….that’s for sure …. Ask any BA crew who had the misfortune to ‘serve’ her ….😳👊😱. …..just sayin ….🤷🏼♂️
I heard those stories . Fake as anything I can see her now” Queen Bitch & Chief “ Karen” of the Air & Hospitality . I bet “ Our Cilla “ even hates being buried in Scouse soil in the graveyard l. Bet she’s spinning like a corpse in a spin-dryer 😂🤣😈
True
She was a Tory,. a suck up. One of the idiots that think because she has a few quid now, she is up with the 'Toffs' While all they see is a 'low class' oik
Oh really....
I've heard about the nasty side of Cilla Black.
They are closing so many pubs now we are not going to have a life! Surely the call of the dead leg, someone should have told him life isn't beer, the sad gett
Enjoyed this, but, I REALY wonder Paul wanted his old Life back from living in a 5 million £ Mansion ? .!!!!!
If his mum was still there yes think Birkenhead would call him bsck
Nowt wrong with being working class. Maybe we could introduce a new level of 'upper working class' to describe the richer folk. And abolish the term middle class, upper class etc, not sure what to though. Suggestions on a postcard ............ 😜
