I cried buckets watching ellegy for fallen wellies and his funeral in the programme felt like lost a family member loved compo and love last of the summer wine 🙏❤️😢😢🌹🌹
@@gordontaylor5373 compo in a way reminds me of my grandad he is cheeky and mischievous just like compo was, the programme was never the same after he died
The way the script writers handled the situation was pure gold, respectful but with the typical humour you'd expect when Compo was involved. Kudos to all the actors and of course Shiela Hancock who allowed the writers to add another dimension to Comp's character. I still enjoy watching repeats including the elegy series.
We visited Holmfirth about four years ago, and you could almost feel him there and it was good to see the Cafe and Nora Batty’s home where Compo spent a lot of time on them steps trying to woo her! Very funny man ,great actor! RIP Bill!
Wonderful actor, how I miss seeing & hearing Compo, thank you Tom Owen for your contribution to "Last Of The Summer Wine" you are a credit to your Father. God bless you & yours.
@@89awcock met him in homefirth me and my girlfriend rented a cottage one day after a afternoon out I parked up and turned round and there he was he was so nice I was like a kid at Christmas we spoke for a few minutes said thank you for taking the time to chat he said your welcome young man true gentleman he was
I know i'm just a "Yank" but alot of my favorite shows are from "Across The Pond"! Espically The Last Of The Summer Wine. That will always be a definately favorite of mine, along with Are You Being Served? The characters in both shows, actually were like some of the people I grew up knowing, both in friends of my family, AND my family! Compo, that character in many ways was my own beloved father!!! Thank you for many years of fun, and laughter, England!
Beautifully worded sentiment-Bill Owen,Peter Sallis and company were the perfect antidote-along with the rambling Yorkshire Moors/Dales-to modern society's ever increasing instability and unhappiness...x
Your not just a Yank You’re very special please don’t forget that I’m in the UK And I watched Last Of The Summer Wine comedy all the time it’s fantastic and I’m glad we’ve got the same interest
Nesta Jarrett I wondered where everybody had been! This is good to know: It's ridiculous to have 872 friends and only 25 are allowed to see my post. I ignored this post earlier, but It WORKS!! I have a whole new news feed. I’m seeing posts from people I haven’t seen in years. Here’s how to bypass the system FB now has in place that limits posts on your news feed. Their new algorithm chooses the same few people - about 25 - who will read your posts. Therefore, Hold your finger down anywhere in this post and "copy" will pop up. Click "copy". Then go your page, start a new post and put your finger anywhere in the blank field. "Paste" will pop up and click paste. This will bypass the system.

@@hughiewinsor593 💝 when Compo died in my favorite show, Last of the Summer Wine. I cryed so hard, i also felt like a I had lost a loved friend that I was never able to meet, but that goes for each and every one of wonderful people who brought life to my days. The show made a mark in my heart. May I watch it on Brit Box for many years to come. I wish they would show from beginning to end and then start all over 🤗💗
Apparently, during a weekend off from filming Bill Owen used to go to the shops in Holme Firth dressed in his Sunday best clothes, and nobody would recognise him, although there were tourists there come to visit the locations.....
I have two favorite shows,Summer Wine,and Andy Griffith,when I was a kid in the late(very) fifties and into the 60's I spent many days with my grandfather, on his small dairy farm helping out (or more like getting in the way really) at noon time he would take his long break,nap,before evening milking,and chores,part of that time was a visit to Mayberry,so that show is special to me,as is summer wine,I was nearing retirement when I discovered it on Sat. tv.had the luck to see some original broadcasts of Andy Griffith,and some Summer wine replays while the show was still being filmed.
They tried plenty of other characters to help fill the gap after Compo died. To me, Tom Simmonite was the best of the lot. I wish they had done more stories with him.
Thank. You. Tom. For. Telling. Us what. Your. Dad. Was. Like. I. Only. Know. Him. As. Compo. As I got. The. Set. Of. The. Last. Of the. Summer. Vine. I. Love. The. Clean. Show and. The. Fun that. You. All. Seem. To have. I. Love. All. The cast but. Your. Dad. How. I. Love. Him as. Compo. And. Now. He. And. Clegg. Is. To. Gather again. So. Sorrier all. Is. Missing. Now. But. We. Can. Get. To see. Them. On. DVD. And. Love. Keeps. As. Near. My. Our. God. Blest. You. For. Telling. Us. What. Your. Dad. Was. Like thank. You. Tom love. Too. You
Loved compo cleggy nora ivy sid wesley edie foggy great series very funny british comedy at irs best keep chasing nora in heaven Compo in your wellies with a ferret in your jacket sadly missed all the chsracters 😂❤😢
Last of the summer wine was decent best time comedy there never will be a show like it and best greats compo cleggy foggy dewhurst are greatest of all comedy
I have wrote my own comedy named the Stay inn gang I have wrote 2 series and there are 8 episodes so far I am in the middle of doing the end of series 3. It’s a comedy/drama one death per series or less but no more than that. I am wondering who to publish it to please give a response. Yours Man City Uk
Such and soft gentle comedy. Easy watching. The early series with Blamire were so different to the rest. Clegg was not afraid of women and not a nervous wreck. They were crude and it was just differing to the rest. They should have done more holidays and trips out to add a bit of variety to the show . How a show just mainly focusing around the same town and small group of people, constantly using the same material lasted so long is amazing. For me. When Compo died, they would have been better off ending the show and doing a spin off maybe, as the show was awful for me after Compo died. To be honest, the last time Foggy left, it was going downhill. They altered the formula and kept doing so. It just became too ridiculous.
I cried buckets watching ellegy for fallen wellies and his funeral in the programme felt like lost a family member loved compo and love last of the summer wine 🙏❤️😢😢🌹🌹
@RoseMarie Hogan yeah I know what you mean it was just like losing a family member
@@nicholc7300 I cried a lot when Compo died - it's like losing the grandad you loved such a lot.

Dave Gibson wow you actually met Bill Owen what were you like you said a perfect Gentleman where did you meet him clue tell whole story

Bill Owen was my favourite by far. I am sure he would have been very proud of his son wanting to play his character’s son as a tribute to him.
I loved this show! Your Dad was the one who really made the show being hilarious. Thank you for following in his footsteps. God bless you.
One of the best tributes from a Son to a Father, I need say no more.

Grew up watching this show with my grandparents, loved it!! He was a great actor, definitely shall be missed!!

Great actor! Very sadly missed
Thank you,Tom, for this wonderful tribute. The way the show handled his death, including your introduction, was the best.
💝😔
Compo got my son and I through the hurt of the loss of his mom, baby brother, and Aunt. Miss you man. Thanks for this.
Hugs to you Tyler and your son. Compo helped me thru a similar time. It made the hard little more bearable.
6.7.20 ~ Compo & Nora = my two favorite characters from "Last of the Summer Wine". How I missed them both! Still do!
A fantastic series with fantastic actors,I grew up watching this,just wonderful,sad to see they are all slowly leaving us now 😢
I cried watching the funeral of Compo. I felt like I had lost a member of my family.

What a Legacy True Legend Bill Owen as Compo from Last of the Summer Wine. Very Sad to Hear Bill Owen Dead & Gone at 85 Years Old
He Made Me Laugh Though A lot

I loved Compo from Last of the Summer Wine.
No one like him or that Brit sitcom ever again.
😪
HE WAS MY HERO! I visited his grave in Holmfirth a few times!
Me too! Peter sallis is buried next to him! 💔
Apparently, during a weekend off from filming Bill Owen used to go to the shops in Holme Firth dressed in his Sunday best clothes, and nobody would recognise him, although there were tourists there come to visit the locations.....
R.I.P Both Bill and Tom.
I love this great actor RIP

Bill started his career as a Bluecoat at Warners, Dovercourt Bay. This was the actual holiday camp where Hi-De-Hi was filmed.
watched cmpos funeral episode last night forgotten just have moving it was rip all involved in summer wine .
They tried plenty of other characters to help fill the gap after Compo died. To me, Tom Simmonite was the best of the lot. I wish they had done more stories with him.
R.I.P Tom And Bill Owen
He was the show fantastic actor
Fantastic show
My God! he's the spitting image!

if Tom had replaced his father i think it would of worked better. Instead of robin hood
