Hi everyone, in this video I also mention that I had been to Roger Lloyd packs grave, but I called him the wrong name. Just to let you know I had been up since 4 am that day and my brain just went blank at that moment. So please excuse that part where I call him David by mistake. Thank you 🙏

My late grandma lived in Verwood and often bumped into Buster doing his shopping. She often stopped for a chat with him and said how nice he was. He signed a photograph for me which I still have:-) When he died, she stood outside the church for his funeral, just along the road from this cemetery and saw David Jason, Nicholas Lyndhurst and other stars arriving.

Thank you for such a good video, which I stumbled upon by accident. However, I am so pleased I did as Buster Merryfield played Cupid between my parents . He and my mother worked in a bank, after he left the army. My father was a regular customer and after a while Buster dropped a hint to my father and the rest was history. . A few years later they were married then I came along followed by my sister and brother. By then my mother had left the bank and the next she saw of Buster was him appearing on OFAH. Buster was in to his amateur dramatics when he worked in the bank and only went pro after retirement. Thanks for the vid - and thank you too Buster...RIP.

Roger is buried in Highgate East cemetery. My husband took the time to find his grave, being a big fan. We were due to see Boycie do a talk but it was cancelled due to illness and a few days later he died. I’ve seen Only Fools and Horses so many times that it almost becomes wearing. I like it but not as much as my husband. He watches it so much it’s enough to put anyone off.

I'm only 21, and I just recently finished watching only fools and horses, and I loved every single episode of it, I just miss the old stuff all those actors who played their part and I know it's sad that some them ain't here and the ones that are have aged now, times flying and I feel that in todays time things are rough, we don't get that joy and fun as it was 30-40 years ago even 20 years ago now days things and people have changed but not for the good sadly, we will never get such a show back again or those actors and their characters ever, nor we will get those year back, and I remember my grandad used to tell me about these shows but I didn't have a clue than, as im British asain my grandad was the first in my family who came to UK in 1969/70 from Pakistan, and those years were hard for Asians to live in uk due to racism and violence but they lived and worked, luckily he had mix of friends here who were came in uk way before him, now that his not with us rip grandad 1941-2015, now that I've seen quite alot of 70s 80s 90s TV shows and programs it just makes me feel happy and excited to see how those times were.

Uncle Albert said to the boss, Rodney wont be into day, he's got a belly ache. Rodney said, why did you say that? Uncle Albert said, You got an ache have'nt you? and it's in your stomach, isnt it? well then, you got a belly ache. Thanks very much for showing Buster's grave.

Can’t believe it’s been 23 yrs since he passed!!! That’s scary….so interesting to hear about his early life…would never have imagined him as a boxer..or teaching things about the army survival in the jungle!! Yes.,it was the chemistry between those three actors that gelled that tv programme into such a hilarious one. A garden centre near me had a yellow three wheeler on the roof and the centre was called “Dell Boys” for a long time. We need more comedy and actors of his style..no swearing, fighting, etc..just good clean comedy. Thankyou for that. Shame his lovely photo glass was cracked/broken….❤️🙏💐🙋‍♀️💕

He was promoting to work in banking as I believe he was in the field of work for many many years. I got him to autograph the book he had just written,but was just blown away when he spoke,very,very posh,not like the Londoner he portrayed in the comedy. Just a lovey,gentle and pleasant guy,amazing chap,keep doing a grand job fella😊😊

Cemeteries are fascinating places. The churchyard at Nacton village near Ipswich is where you'll find the grave of a sailor who fought at the Battle of Trafalgar. An unusual incident is reveled in the Akenham Burial Case. Only Fools and Horses fans debate which was the better character, Grandad or Uncle Albert. Uncle Albert was a new presence in Del and Rodney's lives so there was a huge backstory to explore. The transition from Grandad to Uncle Albert in Only Fools.... was handled brilliantly by the writer, John Sullivan.

There’s nothing wrong with enjoying cemeteries. I look around them with my daughter and we both love finding the very old ones. It’s quite sad though because the really old ones are just left alone and severely overgrown and it makes you realise that when you’re gone, eventually you are just forgotten about. I love your videos because you don’t just show us the grave. You briefly tell us about their life and that makes a huge difference. I’ve subscribed, keep up the good work

OMG I love walking around cemeteries, not because I'm weird but because when you look at the gravestones from years gone by, I often wonder what life was like way back then. Uncle Albert was an amazing addition to only fools which is one of the best series ever made, and I agree, he made us laugh until our cheeks hurt( the ones on your face ) You know, if you need time alone and peace and quiet, it sounds strange, but a cemetery is the perfect place. Thank you for showing this, I thought I was weird walking around cemeteries however, the history that is packed into these places is second to none, when you see the dates on some of these graves and the peoples names, you kind of go back in time wondering what their lives where like and how different the world is today. Keep searching, and finding those gems.

Great video absolutely loved Only Fools and without doubt Buster Merryfield was one of the main reasons it became so successful hard to believe that’s 23 years since he passed what an amazing actor RIP Buster and thank you for the video much appreciated 🙏🏻

I live in Verwood and used to see Buster regularly around the village. He held the Post Office door open for me several times, always tipped his cap and said good day. Such a lovely polite man. Very sad when he passed. The whole village turned out for his funeral. David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst were there. I drive past Busters old house every day and always think of him with a smile. He was brilliant in Only Fools, he is much missed. Thankyou for showing this.

I have not long stumbled upon your channel, and I love that you have come to see ‘our Buster.’ I live in Verwood and used to see Buster every morning collecting his newspaper, he always had a ‘morning’ for everyone he saw. He lived a quiet, modest life in a small bungalow along Manor road. Even though quite a few actors attended his funeral, the locals didn’t encroach upon what was a very sad time for all of us who knew him. The funeral was held at St Michaels near the centre of Verwood. R.I.P Buster, a true Verwoodian ❤

Hey Paul, respect for you here with Buster’s grave. Nice words and tribute. A fact here, Buster Merryfield and Lennard Pearce both appeared in the same episode of Shroud of a Nightingale by PD James lead Adam Dalgliesh (Roy Marsden). Buster played Sir Miles Honeymam and Lennard as Mr Coles. Probably their only time in the same programme. This was in 1984, so early in Buster’s acting career. RIP Buster. ✝️

I met Buster several times in and around Dorset when I was a child. When I was 16 I had lunch with him at the Agricultural College. He was always jolly, ALWAYS dressed impeccably and a true Gentleman.

Of course the show needs no introduction. I remember feeling so sad when grandad passed. But Buster quickly was written in well. I did hear or read that his last job was as a bank manager before joining Only fools.... Thanks for sharing some of his earlier history, great stuff.
