[@julieyoung1770]

What a fantastic wealth of wonderful and talented people, all who will be sadly missed. What a fantastic tribute to Actors and Actresses who have done us proud. Thank you and bless you all.

[@andrewsmith-cm9qw]

I miss John Nettles and Jason Hughes “ I know there not dead” they were the best duo and all these wonderful actors who have passed played a huge part in making the show so successful

[@liazampedri1447]

We are still watching this fantastic duo here in Italy from. Monday till Friday, great actors. I appreciate the wohle series as well, both with John Nettles and Neil Dudgeon. All actors are excellent and all episodes are exciting.

[@Ian-xm5on]

Totally agree. Stopped watching when John Barnaby took over. A most disagreeable man. 🇬🇧

[@trubrit5036]

I love how Midsomer has so many older characters. No focusing on the young and beautiful. It is no wonder so many of them have passed. This was a very interesting, well composed video, with delightful music. Thank you!

[@grazynalaskowska6685]

Dobrze zrobiony serial, wspaniali aktorzy przenosili nas w inny klimat. W swoich zawiłościach trudny do przewidzenia finał serialu . Dziękuję.👍🇵🇱

[@PastaSauce.]

That’s a good point. It can hard to get work as you get older

[@yvonnephillips3888]

Every face brought a sigh. Each one was a gifted actor and brought their character to life. What a delightful show. Some surprised me to see their photos from years past. I thought oh yes, I remember them.

[@shendaraalshedir5403]

I have watched this show since it aired in 1997. It means alot to me! Thank❤You for this lovely tribute to wonderful UK actors.🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦🕊

[@helengorton894]

One of my favorite series ever!!!

[@uschikolb878]

Absolut. Unglaublich, wie viele diese Serie lieben. ❤😻😍

[@user-jg1up7nr3w]

Прекрасный английский сериал и все актёры прекрасны. Как жаль, что многих из них уже нет с нами. 🇪🇪

[@moniquesalmeron1848]

Ma série préférée aussi!, apres Columbo!

[@Georgeta-yy3zh]

Mine,too!!!❤❤❤

[@zipadoodlebug7124]

This video is so very sad. I have watched Midsummer for a few years now, not at all minding watching them over and over again. This show is so laid back and comfortable. The characters you get to know and love and I can't help but feel sadness when they pass away!

[@scribe56]

Me too.

[@joyb5525]

John Nettle's profile in the Telegraph last Saturday week. Bit rough at the edges, but still above ground. What a fabulous homage to the villages of England. Not to mention the actors who made the series such a classic. Heart felt thanks from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@lindahoffman2692]

John Nettles will still be sexy until his last day!! Bergerac, Tom Barnaby, and ON and on! ❤️❤️

[@eggy4152]

I just realised, you missed Richard Briers, he was also in it,he played a vicar and he was also in Monarch of the Glen and in the Good life. 2 more excellent British TV shows.👋💕🇦🇺

[@Andrea-ol3uo]

Oh my goodness i had no idea we had lost so many great British actors. Time marches on. 😢

[@irenemwrench8594]

All great character actors which I think I like the best.

[@jane1975]

@Andrea-ol3uo: Not all of these cast members died because they were old, Tom Beard was 50 when he died and had Cancer, Haydn Gwynne was 66 and died of a brain tumour, Chance died in a Motorbike accident at the tender age of 27.

[@kyachdistent1301]

@@jane1975 Exactly. And it was only stumbling upon this video now that I found OUT Tom Beard had died. I just didn't know. And worse, not even this year or last. Hell he's been gone longer than the span between his only Midsomer ('Days Of Misrule') and his passing. Just as well as it's a Christmas episode so it's shown always around the 25th December, but that's still no reason it's not on at any other time. I blame the media in that they make way too much of Hollywood deaths and the losers in the long dead music 'industry (since 1990 and counting), so it's all too easy to miss when proper people like him die.

[@rosejenkins4731]

I love Midsomer Murders. Have been watching since it first came on Public Television in Detroit Michigan over 20 years ago. For the past couple years I watch it every day - old episodes, the newer episodes. It’s such a high quality show. Your tribute is wonderful. Thank you. ❤

[@carolleedaniel9510]

It’s so wonderful that you showed pictures of the actors throughout their working lives.

[@liampayne7640]

A beautiful series with truly talented actors and filmed in the beautiful English countryside! Their skill will remain forever 🙏

[@user-mg1pb2cn8k]

My german husband and i are still watching this series every Monday evening, here in Germany. I hadn't realised how old the series was although we knew they are repeats.

[@Beruthiel45]

I recognized many of these from their young photos, having seen them acting in other roles then. I'm 79 so I was young when they were. Sadly missed, every one, so much talent. Bless them. 💕

[@lizryan6289]

This brought me to tears. Great actors, a wonderful series. RIP to all

[@kanpur8745]

Love the series and always amazed at the characters that turn up

[@patriciawroten3847]

Great series watched it for years

[@karphin1]

I recognized a good many of them. RIP, thanks for all the good drama moments!

[@1915FadedBelly]

What a walk down memory lane. I'll never forget Mrs Rainbird, the first MS I watched. Sometimes thr names disappear, but the faces are remembered.

[@irenemwrench8594]

I loved Elizabeth Spriggs. She always made things special. She was especially good in period dramas.

[@TheHoveHeretic]

Margaret Tyzack (*1931- +2011). A wonderfully versatile actress, in Midsomer, portrayed Harriet Compton, co-owner of a model village, in the 2009 episode 'Small Mercies' and earlier, Naomi Inkpen in 'Garden of Death' (2000).

[@tommoclement]

All good actors. However, age catches up with all of us,

[@Pickle8able]

Tom Beard was only 50. Chance Perdomo 28.

[@jane1975]

@@Pickle8able Haydn Gwynn wasn't old either [ 66 ], she died of a brain tumour and was quite shocked to read she had died. Both her and Tom were in Peak Practice, Tom played Dr Daniel Acres in the first series and was having an affair with Will Preston [ Simon Shepards ] wife Sarah [ Jacqueline Leonard ] and Haydn played Dr Joanna Graham between Series 7 to 9 [ was killed off, but her characters unborn baby son was saved - the actress was pregnant in real life with her second child and wanted to leave the series because of it ]. Seems Tom died of Cancer too. Chance died in a motorcycle accident.

[@magnuswalker7957]

At 77 ,I know that only took well 😢

[@cs_fl5048]

Thank you for this trip down memory lane....

[@listoholic4507]

You're Welcome ❤️

[@PrivatePrivate-so4if]

I think you missed the wonderful Margaret Tyzack who played leading roles in two episodes.

[@MrDaiseymay]

WHAT A UNEXPECTEDLY LARGE LIST, OF THE ACTORS WHO GRACED MY OWN LIFE, WITH THEIR UNEQUALLED TALENTS. I COULD ALMOST HEAR EVERY VOICE, WHICH TRIGGERED THE ROLE THEY PLAYED. STRANGELY, AND i HOPE I'M WRONG, SUCH TALLENTS ARE NOT AROUND TODAY, PERHAPS BECAUSE, THE STANDARDS OF WRITING AND CREATION, NO LONGER REQUIRE IT.

[@FunnyBunny-pd5xx]

I believe, from watching many dramas/films staring both British and American Actors/Actresses there is an overabundance of talent today with brilliant scripts.* However, having been an avid fan of Midsomer Murders for many years One does feel whilst watching this video "ones life passing by" * There is also a plentiful of rubbish !

[@annastorchi2394]

È una serie che vedo e rivedo sempre con immenso piacere. ❤

[@elizabethroberts6215]

……remember seeing many of them in Shakespearean roles’, in tv series’, & movies’. Wonderful actors’, & actresses’………your talent was greatly appreciated………

[@ReginaWahrer]

Die Zeit vergeht! So viele gute Schauspieler haben uns für immer verlassen😢 Wir trauern um sie, wie auch um alle Verstorbenen in unserem Umfeld! Das ist das Leben.. Aber vielen Dank, daß Sie auch noch ältere Bilder der Akteure gezeigt haben, da kamen längst verschüttete Erinnerungen zurück!🥲

[@christelbraune4530]

Oh Gott , ich liebe diese Serie und schaue sie von Herzen gern. Jeden Montag Abend im Fernsehen. Sie waren große Schauspieler. Einige von ihnen kenne ich nicht nur von Barnaby !!! Mögen sie in Frieden ruhen 🙏🏻💞

[@philomenasorce6114]

Im from the USA & we have a channel thats only dedicated to this show. 24 hours a day. I watch it every single day, most of the day. I love it! This is a beautiful video dedicated to these wonderful actors & actresses. Thank you!

[@ronnie7075]

Such a wealth of talent. Britain should be proud at the number of Thespians it producers. I feel quite sad seeing so many I felt I knew quite well.

[@joanbroad3528]

It’s like a list of old friends x

[@clairewyndham1971]

Isn't it? ❤

[@johnnyhock]

I’m amazed how many icons of British tv have passed away without us noticing 😢 RIP❤️

[@jimmybullardful]

Michael Jayston a hugely versatile actor and much missed. Same also for Joss Ackland and Freddie Jones.

[@lindahoffman2692]

I’ll always remember Michael Jayston as Tzar Nicholas in Nicholas and Alexandra with Janet Sussmsn! ❤️

[@nordseeistmordsee]

Watching Midsomer Murders is like coming home meeting with old friends. It has comforted me for the last 20 years. Thank you for honoring all these exquisite actors who are like family to me ❤❤❤

[@clarepover4978]

So glad to greet these wonderful actors as they pass along, they gave such joy ......

[@hellpoint7534]

So many great character actors .

[@clairewyndham1971]

Man...these actors really made MM a joy to watch. Thanks to video, I will be able to still enjoy them.

[@markbeck8384]

I always enjoy Midsomer; and I am grateful that the BBC gives actors and actresses long working lives. I have enjoyed all these people, and I am grateful for their talent. Because I rewatch many of the episodes, some of these people endure for me.

[@susanlynch1966]

Midsomer Murders is produced by Bentley Productions for ITV, not the BBC.

[@mariahannon7719]

Okay. Is on ITV. I want Vigin media 3 please

[@Deborah24]

Thanks to all for the great memories!

[@sheilabloom6735]

They were all so memorable; I was shocked at how many died so young.

[@debbiethomas3687]

I can only echo what others have already said about the way you put this together. Thank you. Many of these were such familiar faces, but ones to which I couldn't always put names. There are some very fine actors listed here. Saddest for me were Barry Jackson and Graham Crowden, because I didn't know they had died.

[@devonvergiels5185]

Such a weird and wonderful show, characters were often quirky and the village atmospheres sweetly strange. So sad to see so many of the actors gone

[@user-lv1kg4ei3c]

Ich vermisse Geoffrey Bayldon in der Liste, der 2017 starb und auch in Deutschland als Catweazle bekannt war. Ich liebe die Serie "Barnaby" auch, weil man dort so viele liebenswerte Charaktere sehen kann ❤ Grüße aus Deuschland 🙂

[@Daphne-tm5lg]

Wow! Renee Asherton-99 years!

[@Ian-xm5on]

True story about Renee Asherton. She lived in a little village in Oxfordshire, England, and one day she was invited to supper by the local Vicar and his wife. As she sat down and tucked into scrambled eggs on toast, in true actorial style she "My dar! Absolutely divine!" To which the Vicar's wife replied "No, just scrambled eggs!"

[@margaretsimpson3931]

cant believe how long ago some of these great actors died

[@scarygary-qq1pj]

Yes you can.

[@larrydart7124]

Wrong picture of 'young' Robert Hardy. It's actually Richard Anderson of Six Million Dollar Man fame.

[@listoholic4507]

Yes, you're right. Those mistakes happen, when images are somewhere else labeled with wrong names. I'll replace this picture in the future with an updated video. Thank you for pointing it out!! I would have never recognized it. Thank you!! 😊😊😊

[@Daphne-tm5lg]

Loved all those actors!❤

[@piarademacher4024]

I vividly remember Phyllis Calvert in "Indiscreet" with Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant. Such a charming performance! Adored Anna Massey, Honor Blackman, David Warner, Robert Hardy and so many more. What is it about the UK that they raise so many great actors?! 🌟

[@lindahoffman2692]

Fell in love with the great David Warner WAY back in the 60’s in his first film, MORGAN, playing the title character!! Never forget how mad and Adorable he made that character, which could have been clownish, but Warner made him both lovable and pitiable. RIP David ❤️❤️😇

[@piarademacher4024]

@@lindahoffman2692 David Warner was indeed a very gifted actor. We'll never forget our first crush, don't we?! I still have a soft spot for Errol Flynn. 🤫

[@lindahoffman2692]

👍❤️

[@robertmeyer7836]

OOPs! Polly Bergen and Richard Anderson appeared in here by mistake (incorrect "younger" portraits). Someone younger needs to edit you fine, truly fine work. KUDOS. A real tribute to the many fine actors.

[@listoholic4507]

I've trusted google images and they were mislabeled. I'll replace the images in an future updated video. Thank you for pointing it out.😊😊

[@rainydaylady6596]

Thank you, Robert Meyer! I knew Polly Bergen wasn't one of the actors who was on Midsomer, but couldn't remember her name!. I loved her acting. Richard Anderson was such a good actor. When he played a villain you could feel it. Monarch of the Glen was also a favorite show. 🙂💕🖖

[@achitophel5852]

A brilliant series with John Nettles in which most of Britain's best actors and actresses appeared at some time.

[@Ottosparty17]

That’s why I love this program, so many familiar faces.

[@miazanchen5892]

What wonderful & respectful video. It is my favorite series because Samsung TV has a whole channel of its own!

[@JohnSipe-jt7bm]

Liz Spriggs as Rainbird bears an uncanny resemblance to my surviving elder relative (sister in law). Showed my oldest brother and he agreed. 5:40

[@jane1975]

@JohnSipe-jt7bm: She also played the original "Fat Lady" in the first Harry Potter film and also played Mrs Mullen in the BBC tv drama, Playing the Field.

[@jystme2437]

Always be my fav. The characters are wonderful ⚘️

[@sallygordon924]

The series was never the same after John Nettles left - he and Daniel Casey made the best Duo.

[@deanbembridge8640]

A few surprises in there , Bless them

Who could forget Elizabeth Sprigs...Iris Rainbird... and in the picture in Hogwarts...until Dawn French replaced her. And Graham Crowden in Dr Who... and Waiting for God...

George (Arthur) Cole, Donald Sinden, Sam Kelly (Allo Allo), Bernard Hepton (Toby in Tinker, Tailor). Anthony Bate (Tinker, Tailor) Nicky Henson (Fawlty Towers) Ronald Pickup (lots of stuff), June Whitfield (AbFab) Tim Pigott-Smith (V for Vendetta, The Jewel in the Crown) - all very well known British actors. Also Eleanor Summerfield and Peter Jones (E: Faithful unto Death), Tony Haygarth (S04 E 02), Robert Lang, Phyllis Calvert (S04 E 02), Josephine Tewson (E: Judgement Day), Allan Howard (E: Dark Autumn), Dilys Laye (Carry On, St Trinians), John Normington (A Private Function), Malcolm Tierney (Lovejoy), Keith Barron (E: The Straw Woman), Trevor Peacock (The Vicar of Dibley), George Baker (I, Claudius), John Shrapnel (E: Death in Chorus) Probably missed lots. Sorry if any double ups.

[@mikethecabbie8476]

Amazing the number of star names who have guested on the programme over the years. I still love it now, but confess to trying to recognise the filming locations; 30yrs of taxi driving in the Thames Valley, where it was often filmed, can do that to a bloke!

Love the series but what are pictures of Polly Bergen and Richard Anderson doing here?

[@listoholic4507]

Although I've seen almost all episodes except for the new ones, I'm still to unfamiliar with most of the actors. And if some images on the internet are incorrectly labeled, one simply adopts these mistakes. I'll correct all errors with an update video.

We watch 3 or 4 episodes a week. Love Midsomer. Surprising how many clues you miss especially when you've been t' pub. There are few quality shows to watch now. Anyhow I wouldn't live in Midsomer or be a bobby there mind the overtime would be good.

Barry Jackson had an allotment on the same site as ours. He was a nice normal chap. 4.43. I can't believe the image on the left is a young Robert Hardy. It doesn't seem to look like him.
