I DJed at Layrry's club in Nuneaton (Graysons).. they were all a lovely bunch, very caring, always remember Tony Knight who ran the club.. wish I could go back to them days, life was so simple.

I was on Larrys Generation Game in 1979 with my late mum Maisie. We got to know Larry off screen when invited to a party in Wakefield at his friends house after his show at the Bradford Alhambra. I will never forget following his Rolls Royce in my late fathers ford cortina 😂 RIP Larry and Mum Maisie ♥ Nice nostalgic video thanks 😊

Living alone in London all those years ago and sometimes feeling lonely I would look forward to watching him on a Saturday night. It was like having a friend come into the room. You couldn't dislike him for a second. And over the years I have a feeling of affection for him even after all this time. To look at the grave and think of the personality of the man was sad to see really. For a child to be put into some one else's hands at the age of ten he must have wondered why he was unlovable. I felt proud to see him standing alongside his Rolls Royce and felt ' well done Larry. You did do well'

Thank you Alan for yet another great presentation and im sad still that Larry left us,wonderful gentleman very funny and his catchphrase Shut that door,and Seems like a nice boy,and What a gay day (think he said that?),will live on for years to come at least for us who remember him! And like you said his grave stone was very modest(considering the wealth he mustve accrued) more fans should visit his plot and lay new flowers.R.i.p Larry.

I just want to make a personal statement that 20 years ago I worked with another businessman who was very camp and in the closet, who eventually ended up hanging himself at the age of 42, so sad that even his mother did not totlay understand him. I can honestly say that I was his true friend and tried to help him. People like Larry make a difference by standing out and proving it's not wrong. He sent a big message and did a lot of good and spread happiness. I sent my love to both. Alan

I was lucky enough to have Christmas dinner with Larry and some friends in Birmingham 1993. He was charming, funny and very warm and gentle. He was assisting with a book about Dorothy Squires and was full of wry anecdotes. It was a pleasure I've never forgotten.

I know a lot of gay guys think Grayson and other homosexuals in the 70 s played a very camp act which insulted them, but as a child of the era of Larry I know full well how much of a breakthrough his being openly gay was, like Mr.Slocombe (John Inman) in Are You Being Served, these characters made campiness, and 😮difference more acceptable. Had in not been for the AIDS outbreak and the cruelty that ensued, I think gay rights would have triumphed years earlier. Actually, of course, Grayson was asexual and wasn't practicing as a gay man. Loved him so much at the time!

My parents were in the Entertainment Business - professional musician and professional singer, and my father spoke warmly and very highly of Larry Grayson. He told stories of the times he and my mother had met Mr. Grayson, and what a thoroughly lovely chap he was. This made a huge impression on me and from that time, I too loved Larry. I blinkin' adored him on The Generation Game, and no one could replace him. He truly was THE best. May he live on, entertaining those who, like him, have passed on, and may my father and mother both be included in the great audience in the sky. *Truly fabulous report* .... thank you for the share! ~ Cobs.

After you had finished talking about Larry, I was going to press for your next ‘person’ but I waited, continued watching and your words really got to me. You’re quite right! We SHOULD try to get the most out of each day. Sounds so simple, but it’s often forgotten. Thankyou. xx

Hello Gillian, I never in real life say these kind of things very often, but I do believe them. I used to read loads of psychology in my 20s. It was my favourite subject so I just thought because some of the lives are a bit of a disaster. It's the right moment sometimes to bring this out and try and put things in perspective but I'm still not preaching. We all do as we wish. I just think it might help somebody somewhere. Thank you ever so much kind of you. Alan

Great video for a great entertainer. I found Larry very funny, infact when I see old clips sometimes on tv of the Generation Game I actually find him even funnier than I did back in the day, because let’s face it most true camp comics are all on the other side of the veil now , so yes I used to find Larry funny now I find him hilarious! Just a bit of info I did hear he moved to Torquay or Torbay , to retire but he could never settle down there so he came back to Nuneaton. How true I don’t know but that story rings a bell. The photo you showed with his rolls looks very similar to that bungalow you showed , although it looks more like a big house lol, but it does look like it could be the place. Like you say if I had that kinda money I wouldn’t live on a main road myself. Anyway great video , Alan as usual and thanks. When I was an extra I got to know June Brown quite well who played Dot Cotton and I actually went to her house a few times when she lived in South Croydon , although she moved to Surrey more in the country , but never went there, but I did her and her family’s astrological charts . Great woman. She maybe a good character to do but unfortunately I don’t know where she is buried or if cremated where. I did hear through the grapevine she wanted to be buried at sea , due to her navy roots, so that would be a bit awkward to film that one in the middle of an ocean. I will try and do a bit of research and see. Anyway take care and keep filming ❤️ John

Absolutely John. All that stuff about The English Riviera was true but I liked a bit with June. She was such a character. I remember watching that on a chat show with lady Gaga they got on like a house on fire. I watched her on the program West The royal trying to get fit and she smoked like a chimney but she was in the 90s at that point so they really wasn't a reason for it to be on that program but she was funny. This has got nothing to do with it but I saw some street art in Greece under a tunnel and it's 100% dot. Truly, I'll send you the picture and see what you think. She's smoking a cigarette And it's either an enormous coincidence or somebody in Greece like the character? Nice memories for you. Maybe if we meet one day you can tell me. Take care, Alan

I remember seeing an interview in which he said that when he was barely known, he never envied the stars at the top of the bill because their success meant that he could keep working. Also, he took great care always to dress well, as even though it wasn't a crime to be poor, it was unacceptable to look poorly dressed.

Nice to see you were in my home of Nuneaton. The house in Hinckley Road as changed a bit since Larry was there. He was a lovely man and if you seen him out in local pubs like I sometimes did he would never ignore you if you said hi to him. Nice video.

Hello Colin, you made my day to confirm that that was the house he lived in. I checked it with a few individuals and thank you ever so much I'm in your debt. Alan

Hi Alan. The last time I saw Larry he was chasing his little dog down the road from his little bungalow wich was near to the town centre. He was shouting " come here ya little bugger ". It had must have got out. But yes he loved his fans and he loved Nuneaton. All the best Alan can't wait for the next video. You make my wife and I laugh.

great tribute. I thought Larry was funny, tongue in cheek, but never imo offensive, I think knowing him as a friend, must have been lovely. Flowers Paul is a good idea, it’s a shame some gravesnlook forgotten, but that’s life I suppose!

He moved to a bungalow after he returned from a brief time in Torquay. He never settled down there. The house you show I believe was heavily rebuilt with two houses built where there had been one with a large garden
