British TV & Film Stars We Lost in 2022 | A Tribute

[@Tinaf653]

Heartbroken at Bernard Cribbins’ passing. I was lucky enough to meet him in 2017, and he was amazing, had a brilliant sense of humour, and was SUCH a great guy, very humble and down to earth. He’ll never be forgotten. 💐

[@josephinefothergill191]

I remember him in The Railway Children and for the song Right Said Fred.

[@j0hnf_uk]

I've a feeling we'll never see the likes of these again. From a different, more caring age. All that can be said is a simple, 'thank you', to each and everyone of them.

[@stuviewtv]

Well said John.

[@adellaeltantawy9345]

All great talents. What a year. Robbie Coltrane dying really saddened me. We loved "Cracker". Very sad for their families. RIP.

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

When you grow up watching these people you always remember them as they were the last time you saw them on TV. In your mind they never get old and die but sadly, they do. It makes me feel ancient just thinking about it.

[@redmi9834]

We are all like we are on a moving stage costume tableaux from left to right. Some are the lead actors who leave their mark and are held memory, and others are just extras that have a walk-on part or are part of the the blurred backing in a crowd scene.

[@jowaite8889]

I bet the BBC regret wiping all those early tapes of the stars at the start of TV so they could use them again. That was true immortality and gone forever.

[@Acanofbeer]

What a lovely tribute. Properly narrated with none of this fake computerised voiceover nonsense. Thanks very much 👌

[@stuviewtv]

Many thanks!

[@darthdmc]

We lost a lot of legends in 2022. RIP to all of them.

[@gordonburns8731]

RIP is a meaningless epithet. They are dead, not resting or sleeping. Their life has ended.The individual is dead!

[@giuliakhawaja7929]

It’s a respectful way of appreciating a dead person and has been for many centuries. “.Requescat in Pace”

[@keldaogg2157]

This was exceptionally well done. Respectful, informing and loving. Thank you.

[@stuviewtv]

Much appreciated.

[@rachelhenderson2688]

Who was the actress who appeared in hi-de-hi was she Ruth Madoc? (short black hair)

[@adeleelgood6948]

Shocked that so many famous people had passed away last year. A lovely tribute, young man! So calm and respectful. Thank you.

[@stuviewtv]

Thank you!

[@MrArchie800]

Very sad to see people who you grew up watching passing away but it's also nice to know that almost all lived to a good old age and seemed to be very active in their later years.

[@fus149hammer5]

It's been a bloody bad year 😕 for losing tv and film stars. Leslie Phillips had been ill for some time and Lovely Bernie was getting on but Ruth Madoc? Unfortunately, the current generation of actors and so called comedians can't hold a candle to those we've lost this year. They are irreplaceable.

[@stuviewtv]

Yes, it's not been a good year in that respect has it? Hopefully next year's video will be a lot shorter.

[@MrDaiseymay]

I understand your comment, BUT. the current geneation will think the same way when THEIR favourites reach the end iof the road too.

[@fus149hammer5]

@MrDaiseymay Maybe but where's the Leslie Phillips or Sid James or Bernard Cribbins of today? Rowan Atkinson? He's extremely talented but does anyone actually like him? Apparently he's not a very nice person to know. David Jason of course but Where's the Tommy Cooper or Spike Milligan of today? Our generation were lucky we had real stars who's the best now? Bill Bailey's good, Coogan? Another one who's too up his own backside. We loved our comedians and comedy actors I can't see this lot being appreciated in the same way.

[@snowysnowyriver]

@@fus149hammer5 Spot on and well said. There are none today of the same calibre to replace those we have lost. We were lucky to have lived in an era of drama and comedy giants.

[@MrDannyDetail]

@@MrDaiseymay The difference is that younger people now have a zillion diferent social media 'stars' and 'reality' stars and the like to follow, of various levels of merit, with a strong correlation to 'long tail theory' if you get my meaning, so only a small percentage of the pipilation in 30 years time will remember any one particular celeb when they pass on, whereas 30+ years ago there was only a certain exclusive group of celebrities who were the cream of the crop by defintion of being good enough to make it onto one of the country's four tv channels, and as such they were known by many millions at once, and therefore now mourned by many millions. I'm only 9 but I definitely feel we're losing legends at a far faster pace than we're discovering new ones.

[@scottscott232]

A brilliantly presented tribute to those that enriched our lives.

[@stuviewtv]

Many thanks.

[@rw8733]

It's a really good reflection on some sadly missed stars.

[@goldyyarde7022]

Thank you. What a shock . I grew up listening to watching all of the deceased. May they RIEP.

[@Boogledigs]

I didn't know every name, but I knew every face. The enrichment, entertainment, laughter, interest, information etc that they brought to our homes makes their loss so great. The world has lost so many jewels.

[@retroray58warby98]

Wow, I never realised how many wonderful actors, entertainers and presenters we lost this past year. Lovely tribute mate.

[@stuviewtv]

Many thanks.

[@tonyduncan9852]

I second that. Travis was a blow out of the blue.

[@romystumpy1197]

I agree and I recognise every face,

[@RustyLightningPhoto]

I always find this the saddest part of the new year, remembering all those people I grew up being entertained by, it makes me feel old. And the best two words too describe Leslie Phillips should undoubtedly be ’Ding Dong’. R.I.P to you all.

[@fus149hammer5]

You're not wrong.....

[@jenbo2490]

Well hello there

[@tracylove3937]

I am from the USA, and am just discovering many of these incredibly talented actors. It has been a joyful introduction. May those lost RIP.

[@davetaylor4741]

Haven't lived in the UK now for 25 years. But because I was born and grew up there knew of nearly all of these. And am old enough to remember most of them as young. What a sad loss. Some not much older than me. A trip down memory lane to times as a kid watching a lot of these actors and actresses with my parents. Both long since gone. Time moves on for all of us. At least those remembered in this video leave behind a legacy of their work for future generations. Sad but nice video.

[@redmi9834]

Everything changes, and rearranges, yes everything changes even - - me. Lyrics something like this when Ertha Kitt appeared for the last time on stage knowing that she was ill and near the end of her life in a fabulous red dress. It was one of the most moving things I have ever seen. 'And I cried. Oh my God how I cried, to quote the lyrics of another song, what's going on?

[@Sman-eg1zs]

Thanks for putting this together, I had no idea this many had passed on. It was very sad ,the end of an era, people who were part of the landscape in my young life. But then, that's life isn't it.

[@JackW42]

Not only is this a beautiful tribute to so many deeply loved stars we’ve lost but the voice over information about each person is a much needed and beautiful touch. Thank you for your great work. 🙂💚

Many thanks.

Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end when everything was done in the best possible taste as Kenny Everett would often tell us in his alta ego Cupid Stunt, whose clothes some reason kept falling off.

[@SimonandJojo]

Thank you for including June Brown, June was my partners dearest and oldest friend for 37 years, she was a beautiful soul, inside and out, for us who knew her personally , we were more than blessed to have her in our lives. and she was nothing like Dot Cotton the character she played. She brought genuine love to all those blessed enough to call her a friend.

[@stuviewtv]

Lovely words. It's so nice to hear what a genuinely warm person June was.

[@lechat8533]

Oh my, I had no idea that "Hagrid" died. He was just 72. This came as a shock to me. It`s so sad. The older you get, the more people you lose. Slowly but surely they slip from this life into, hopefully, a better one. R.I.P. all you wonderful people who have brought so much fun and entertainment into our lives. THANK YOU for taking the time to create this respectful and informative video. I wish you A Happy New Year 2023.

Many of the faces I do not know or remember, but the ones I do were very much as in the old photos. Bernard Cribbins, great as Gramps in Dr Who, ( favourite show), but can anyone remember him singing "Right Said Fred" ?. God Bless them all and condolences to their families.
