Peter Butterworth as Mr Fiddler was my all time favourite 😂.
I tend to agree that life is the illusion and death is the reality.
Brilliant he was.
A very funny couple. Didn't realise they were married let alone buried together. Gone but definitely not forgotten. Rest in peace Peter and Janet. 🖤🖤
Janet's Margaret Thatcher impressions were brilliant
@@laurainejones673 She actually fooled Joan Rivers into thinking that she WAS Margaret Thatcher. (With the help of Johnny Carson) czcams.com/video/BainzD2lKmk/video.html The ironic thing is Janet could do a cracking impression of Joan Rivers too.
Yes! Who could've bettered her turn in For Your Eyes Only, not forgetting John Wells as Denis 😊.
Love Peter Butterworth in the Carry On's (one of my favs) and to have an incredible wife as an impressionist!...RIP both of you...
Peter Butterworth , died in my hometown whilst appearing at Coventry Theatre [no longer there) in his hotel room @ the Smithfield Hotel opposite (no longer there i remember the local paper announcement at the time .Hope I've not spoiled Pauls voice over
Can't wait. Can you go to terry scott and dame Diana Rigg if they have graves 🎉.
There's a scene in Carry On Camping where Butterworth, as Josh Fiddler, the owner of the campsite, keeps making up new charges for Sid James to pay so he can use the site - and each one is the same price...
A pound.
I've seen footage of people visiting Butterworth's grave and finding a one pound coin resting on his headstone.
That's such a wonderful and affectionate tribute that I'm sure he would have appreciated.
Great actor's but didnt know they were married,looking forward to this, hope you doing well paul 👍
Peter was so Funny in the Carry On Films also he was also in Dads Army also Loved Janet as Margeret Thatcher R.I.P. to Both of Them.
Double delightful folks tonight then remember these two did not know Janet brown dead though,nice weather there Paul makes a change nice summers now
Remember these two and i have heard of them but only years ago as my memory is a shade rusty that what getting old does to you
I loved him playing Mr Fiddler. One of my favourite carry on films. It is a standing joke in my family that everything is one pound.
Such innocent times and such fun. Great movies all of them. Those were the days that everyone longs for.
My fav carry on is carry on screaming , and his role in the film was hilarious , kept fainting all the time 😂
I never knew they were married to each other... both of them were good at what they did
Great. Peter was under -rated in my opinion in those films. Janet Brown was superb as Dame M Thatcher. Whether life is an illusion could be debated by philosophers for a long time. Accept life as it is and make teh best of it without damaging anyone else seems to be a good idea that has served my 75+ years . Keep this up Paul
Mr Fiddler: the inspiration behind Poundland 😂
Hahaha brilliant 👏😂😂
Did you know that while he was at Stalag Luft III he was one of the first people to stage a tunnel escape? Stalag Luft became famous as the venue for a breakout which formed the basis of the film The Great Escape! One of the finest comedy actors in my opinion.
I loved him carry on screaming an Janet browns impressions where really good
Here was me thinking oh two people in the same cemetery, had no idea they were married! Love the Bond clip
Whenever I hear ….”pound” I always think of Peter as Josh Fiddler lol ….love the lines “ but you’ve had six quid out of us already ! “ 🤣🤣🤣.
Another great one Paul , loved both Peter and Janet , hope they having a good ok ‘carry on ‘ party up with the others xx RIP PETER &JANET ❤❤xx just adding he died on my mums birthday 😢
for me a great actor peter butterworth was,and stole alot of scenes in the carry ons.looking forward to this
Rest in peace Peter Butterworth and janet Brown and both very funny in carry on films and James bond too!!
l loved watching peter in the carry on films growing up great actor,and janet's mrs t's impressions were fantastic l had no idea they were married my goodness all this time they were both great r.i.p to both of them.
Peter Butterworth was an unsung hero from the Carry On Movies, he was great 👍🏻
I met Janet Brown at Pinewood studios in October 2004 at a Joan Sims tribute
She was lovely, I said to Janet I wish Peter was still here, she smiled and said me too
They are together again ❤❤
Aww the memories of childhood they were brilliant actors. Wonderful.
Peter an janet both funny characters peter was funny iin the carry on movies omg he was epic janet cud impersonate any one meggie thacher was her iconic character she played her to a T lol rip both you were ledgens bk then thanks paul 👍🙌👍💯🙏👍👍👍👍
Mrs H ... I love the Carry on Films...And yes I still watch them... I never knew Peter & Janet where married so you taught me something knew....It must of been hard for Janet losing her daughter at such a young age...May all RIP...❤
Loved this video never realised that he was married to such a wonderful comedienne, what a fun couple they must have been
Yes Paul, love all "Carry On" !!!! Thanks, have a smashing Sunday, love Sharon x
I agree with you Paul life is an illusion and death is real thanks again for another great video and i never knew that Peter and Janet were married.
Loved Peter Butterworth as Mr Fiddler and when Sid would ask how much for something, and Peter would say...Err one Pound 😂😂😂.
RIP Peter and Janet 🙏
Peter Butterworth brought a certain charm to every Carry On film he was in. Even if it was only a small part he often got the funniest lines but he's especially good in Carry on Screaming and Carry On Abroad. He was also involved in a real life POW escape from Stalagluft III but when that story was turned into a film several years later called 'The Wooden Horse' he was turned down for a part because the director said he didn't look particularly heroic!
Sadly I had no idea they died 32 years apart and that Butterworth was actually younger than I thought he was when he died. It should also be pointed out that Butterworth was a regular in the second series of legendary kids TV show, 'Catweazle' from the early 70s. As for Janet Brown, although i'd heard of her I didn't know too much about her but I do remember that scene you show from For Your Eyes Only as that film was the first 007 film I was taken to see at the cinema.
Anyway, thanks again for another entertaining video.
Peter Butterworth and the 'spot diagnosis' scene in Carry on Doctor is comedy gold 😂
I remember Janet Brown doing Margaret Thatcher she was brilliant at inpersonating her 👍🤣 she was also very funny and talented👏🤣🤣🤣 may they both rest in peace 🙏🌹🕊️💕
I saw a programme about 2 years ago about Peter butterworth it turns out that Peter was very good friends with Kenneth Connor a carry on co star off screen and Peters son Tyler actually met Kenneths son Thomas Connor and they became the best of friends talking about their fathers roles in the carry on films my favourite carry on is carry on abroad where Peter played pepe and his famous catchphrase sausage beens an chippins or sausage and beens or beens and chippins 😅
Or when he said your name is Stupid Farquar? 😄
Peter is a legend. 🤗
I remember both Peter and Janet very well. Peter always played silly dithery characters, giving the impression that there was little between his ears, yet I know he was a very astute man. Janet was a fantastic impressionist. I knew that her performances were so entertaining. I am a Coventrian and remember the local paper running headlines about his sad death.
Brilliant mate, both from my time, great entertaining
Both great professionals but the mr fiddler persona was brilliant, he had that down to a fine art, the post office bank book really made me laugh when he was trying to woe his x wife back played by joan sims. Another good one Paul.
Give Us A Kiss! Give Us A Kiss! Brilliant...lol... RIP to both Peter and Janet...Thank you, Paul.
Peter Butterworth is my favourite Carry On actor after Sid James. Thank you for taking the time to visit him for us.
I'm yet another person who had no idea they were married. Their headstone is quite similar to a Commonwealth war grave. I think the person who played Dennis Thatcher in the clip from For Your Eyes Only was John Wells.
Two great actors both very funny . pound and mrs thatcher.
Love looking around graveyards, you can go down a rabbit hole looking people up . Next time you’re passing through Streatley, have a look in the garden of The Bull inn, unusual story you can tag on to your George Michael vid 😊
Brought laughter to so many including myself, loved the carry on films when growing up, love that they are laid to rest together, thank you for sharing
Good question is life an illusion, personally I think life is very real but a rehearsal for greater things to come
An interesting possibility for a future visit might be Sylvia Plath (buried in Heptonstall-Yorkshire). She was an American poet married to Ted Hughes (poet, Lauriat).
It’s a tragic and fascinating back story which might be of interest to some people. Just a thought if you are up or around Yorkshire in the future.
Never knew they were married to each other ...loved them both ...lovely tribute Paul 💙💓
I didn’t know they were a married couple but they were brilliant Peter in carry on films and Janet as Maggie rip,another great vid Paul thank u x
Hello Paul. Looking forward to this I love watching carry on films. Also Janet brown. She held my daughter who was just over 1 yr old. Years ago and I still have the paper clipping from that day Janet opened a shop in my local town centre she was so lovley and funny. And she asked if she asked if she could hold my daughter Thankyou for this Paul 🤗👍
When I was very young and lived in London, I saw Janet Brown in Cinderella, she played Dandini, At half time, she came out and entertained us all. Thank you Paul for another great video xx
Loved these 2...although I didn't realise Peter died in 79. Janet 2011...both brilliant in their own rights...Paul thanks again for all the miles you travel and brining these celebrity graves to us. The public....amazing ❤
They were certainly a very talented couple, I remember Janet impersonating Margaret Thatcher and thinking how brilliant she was. He was just brilliant in the Carry On films too. Bless them both .
Of the famous graves youve visited Im very impressed at the gentle simplicity of the burial grounds and grave markers .Here in the US so many are monuments in memorial parks .
Great video as always paul 😊. Peter was a very funny guy and amazing part of the Carry on cast and sadly missed. R-I-P Mr Fiddler “It’s a pound”. 😂
They famously lived in Ifield and my grandmother, who was a cashier at Marks and Spencer in Crawley, once served Janet Brown. She always said what a friendly and approachable person she was
Can’t beat the carry on films
I remember Janet Brown playing Margaret Thatcher in the James Bond film - For your eyes only.
RIP to them both.
An amazing couple who brought entertainment and comedy to the world and back together ❤️ as one Rest in Peace 🙏 🪦 and thank-you for your joy you brought to the world
Thankyou Paul for this video, Peter & Janet two very talented people. Every time I watch Peter in the carry on films it makes me laugh out loud a very funny man. May they both rest in peace together 💓🌹
Thanks for talking us along to these graves, there awesome 😎 thanks for sharing. You take care 🙏 may Peter Butterworth and Janet Brown rest easy 😢🙏🕊️
My gt uncle was Janet Brown's cousin.
Janet is the spitting image of my mums cousin Susan.
Many great stories I've heard from him growing up.
Miss them badly 😢
Loved them both
Great video Paul. 2 National treasures. Didn't know they were married. Loved carry on . Both brill in what they gave us .
They were lovely people, i grew up watching the Carry On films, wished kids of today were growing up with them, great fun. My favourite was Sid James. Rip Peter & Janet xx
I loved all the characters on the Carry on Films. Peter was right up there with the best. Carry on Camping. Pound. Pound. Very funny. Also in Carry on up the Khyber when the plaster was falling into the dinner. He was brilliant. Janet as Maggie was fantastic too. Whenever you are feeling a bit down, put a Carry film on.
Looks like a true love story, once again well done. Rest in peace to them both.
Thanks Paul for taking us along on these graves. You are awesome 😎. Take care
Herrlich!!!! Auch mir sind diese Gesichter bekannt.
Schön dass du an sie denkst und Erinnerungen wach hältst.
Auch Kenneth Williams hat mich herzlich lachen lassen.
Einfach toll.
Und wieder war die Tür verschlossen.
Bei uns in Deutschland wäre es das gleiche. Es gibt Mitbürger denen ist nichts heilig.
Danke. Paul 🙏👍❤❤
I never knew they were married to each other. Peter was always one of my favourite actors in the carry on films, he was hilarious. Janet Brown did a really good Margaret thatcher amongst others, she was quite good. Cheers Paul, another good video 👌 You have my permission to relax and take a break! Thank you so much for all your hard work 🙏
No I never remember her doing Margaret thatcher was brilliant and Peter may they rest in peace both
Actually Paul you couldn't be more right there about life is an illusion and death is real I totally agree with that 👌 thank you for sharing another great video 👍😊

What an lovely church where they r buried
I loved Peter Butterworth in both Carry on up the Khyber and Screaming, especially the funny dinner party under fire in Khyber! He was also in a few episodes of Catweazle in the 70’s. I met Janet Brown in Great Yarmouth at a charity football match when I was a teen in the 70’s, and got her autograph, she was in summer season appearing on the Britannia Pier in the Mike and Bernie Winters Show!
Thank you for your dedication and the respect you show when you visit these grave
This was a great double visit to two amazing people , both so good at their craft...bit like yourself Paul 😉 , thanks so much 🙏 😊
Two great entertainers sadly gone but reunited together, Thank you Paul 👍👍
I have watched all the carry on films and I still watch them when their on the telly
Both such great actors may they both rip 🙏🏼❤️
Loved him in carry on camping and his wife was a very brilliant impersonator thankyou Paul 😊💕
Great video as always Paul, Peter was a funny guy in the carry on films😊 RIP🙏
They were both amazing people..beautiful church and a lovely tribute to them.. thank you Paul.. xx
Another great video as always.
And your time and effort is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Good evening Paul. Thank you once again for a great video. I loved peter butterworth in carry on camping, but especially in carry on Abroad where the gang went to EllsBells, where he was the manager of the hotel
Thanks Paul, what a great choice - one of the best and most underestimated comedy actors of my era. I met him once, just to nod and say hello too. This would be the early 1960’s in West Park, Leeds. I was walking home from school and he was cycling the other way, probably back to lodgings and I would guess he was probably appearing on stage at the Grand Theatre in Leeds.
His characters in ‘Carry on Abroad’ (Miseur Pepe) and ‘Carry on up the Kyber’ (Brother Belcher) were just hilarious and some of the lines he was given were just gems. From Carry on Abroad he called Mr Farquhar (Kenneth William) Mr Farciarse 😂 and from Carry on up the Kyber when they were in the harem and he says “.. you can’t expect me, a man of the cloth, to get involved in all this, my job is to save fallen women…..(Roy Castle) “..we don’t have any choice..”. Brother Belcher….”good, save me the one on the right….” 🤣🤣
Finally, I don’t want to say too much about my views about life and death for fear of the abuse it may attract 🤔 As a Catholic, all I will say is that our life on earth is a pilgrimage and merely a snapshot in time, before our after life.
You make always fantastic videos , thanks for that Paul.
I really love to watch them with all the nice people of the Unusual things family 😊
Have a nice Sunday evening and take care of yourself. Greetings from Germany Melinda
Peter was so funny and dry. Janet was uncanny as Maggie.. Life is a illusion that we have to deal with death is our life to come. Paul do you know where the son is buried ? I thought he would have been with them. Another great video. Thanks Paul
another great video paul well done mate
Abouslty loved Peter in the carry on films my fav has too be him playing slow bottom in carry on screaming 😱 when he was scared by oddbod lol 😂 and he's with Margaret thatcher impersonation was iconic bless her another amazing video ❤❤
I loved Peter in carry on camping was so funny 😂😂😂 💖💖💖Xxx

Well I never knew Peter and Janet were married , I love the carry on films and I remember Janet's Margaret Thatcher impression, Thanks for taking us along ❤
❤❤Thank you so much Paul for sharing this video of Peter butterworth and Janet brown. I absolutely loved them both. It was very sad that Peter was not found until the next day. Thank you both so much for the laughs you have given us over the years. May you both rest in peace. Gone but not forgotten. ❤ ❤
Cant wait thanks Paul keep up the good work.
I met Janet Brown when I was a lot younger. Don't remember what she was in at the time, but I have her autograph.
I also have a signed photo of their actor son Tyler Butterworth.
Thanks for another informative & respectful video.
