The House That Made Me | Michael Barrymore

[@bernradiley]

My eldest son wrote to Michael years ago, and Michael took the time to write back. My son has never forgotten that. Michael is a very warm hearted person.

[@monicaarmstrong7773]

Oh, dear Michael, you are an incredible creation! So special. Love yourself now!

[@Si1983h]

God this is a hard watch, there’s still a terrified child in his grown up body… that first few moments in the flat, he was completely traumatised. Hope he’s able to conquer all his demons for good.

[@janettewebster2151]

I agree. I'm a qualified Counsellor & like you, see, hear & feel his still evident trauma. I'd say that his life wears him, not he wears his life. Do you understand? My family migrated to Australia in 1970, so my experience of his amazing talent has only been through this format. But, I had the same experiences re entertainment & life (minus the domestic abuse) including being a Skinhead ❤️ I've caught up with Michaels' life & can tell you that, from my training & observation skills that I don't believe he was in anyway COMPLICIT, with that young man's drowning. That in fact, he was set-up...

[@helda4850]

I still miss Michael with all his shows, so handsome and quite witty. God Bless you always Michael.

[@andrelamoureux6167]

Man was absolutely brilliant good luck to him in whatever he does. And I still blame the media that have ruined so many lives

[@jackiebartley3029]

He was ace ,and all I can say is the hard times he has enjured he deserves a comeback ,there are people on the TV now,that have done worse

[@samnpoppythedog4416]

And one of them people who was feeding the media was Max Clifford the nonce, Max Clifford was good friends with Michael's ex wife and did say after the split that he would destroy Michael's career.

[@amfwelsh]

He’s doing great on TikTok and instagram and seems really happy

[@cindywills5003]

He survived childhood abuse, he should be praised for the hard work he is doing to overcome such a horrid upbringing. The media should be crucified for the awful things they do to someone like Michael.

[@TomP-e3g]

Michael will bouunce back his talent will never go away❤

[@griswald7156]

I saw him in Bournemouth….doing a show years ago…he had the audience in the palm of his hand..his brain was electric…the audience loved him..

[@Alkatrask]

I saw him in Bournemouth he used to pay all the lads at the local university in Poole £20 each to come and look at his chuff with a magnifying glass. You had to line up, look and then say something about it. Most lads said “that’s nice” or “isn’t it hairy” couple of cheeky fuckers would say “cor don’t it look swollen” once I said “why is the anus covered in ants” Barrymore took my money back, took down my name and address and went to my house and slapped my mother up the tits. He was well out of order.

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

My parents owned a greengrocers from the late 1970’s till late 1980’s and, Michael went in there couple time’s a week …what a absolutely wonderful gentleman , when I first joined Twitter I said to him who I was and he followed me back on Twitter . He’s missed on tv , wish he would be back on screen x

[@deanawinn9447]

Bless him he started performing young probably to make his mum happy after seeing his father beat her...we love you MB x

[@yvonneost12]

What a interesting story of this mans life , he was so handsome and entertaining and no one guessed he was a alcoholic and gay , he seems like such a nice man " now " with his drinking under control .

[@mattlkc]

id loved strike it lucky, barymore was funny as hell

[@gillianheywood5860]

Really interesting.Very honest.Great entertainer.Emotional abuse as a child has a lot to answer for. Wishing Michael all the best for the future and about time you were back on TV.One of the best entertainers of our time.Miss his antics greatly ❤️🙏

[@joysynmonds9082]

What goes on, if its dramatic, it NEVER LEAVES YOU. We are victims of a Victirian style of upbringing. Or NOT! The values take years to amend.

[@alisonlaing5626]

Absolutely right............he IS "GREATLY" missed............what REALLY use to "piss" me off......was EVERY time the "pool" incident was brought up "his" name was always the only name mentioned...(Wrong!!).............although he was NOT the only person in his house......there was others there......to me he was "crucified"..because of his fame...( an easy target!!!!).......yes it was his house...but you can only be in "one" room at one time................what a waste of entertainment NOT seeing this guy........Love u Michael!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@italianstallion9170]

Funny how the emotional abuse as a child was also brought up after April 1st 2001?

[@miriamkennedy3121]

So sad…. Sorry you suffered like that

[@Alkatrask]

Childhood trauma is terrible. Happened to a friend of mine. They have a lot of the same behaviours, though my friend never had anyone raped and murdered in his pool and him run away. Maybe that was more to do with murdering rapists being his friends. I don’t know I’m not a doctor like all you numpties apparently are. God bless.

[@blacksunshine7485]

One of the best and funniest all round entertainers the UK has ever produced. At the top of his game he was untouchable. The greatest shame is that he lost that spark due to everything that happened.

[@lesleypeach3641]

love you Michael always will I feel for you so much New Zealand. xxx 💝✨

[@beatesmirek9400]

One just has to love that man for being so courageously vulnerable and honest so openly! Michael Barrymore is a very brave and humble man!

[@dianaosullivann5075]

Wonderful man through and through wished he was back on TV

[@MSGC55]

You might enjoy him on Tiktok with his little dog - very entertaining

[@lovepeace4065]

He is a brilliant show man but he should also tell the truth about the man found dead in his pool. That was someone’s son , child. I don’t know the facts but he could have survived if his agents or lawyers had advised him better in my opinion.

[@susiecrawley2701]

your a great man I have the best of love for you . come back to tv your so funney all the best to you Susan

[@DeniseCunningham-x4k]

Michael I don’t care what you are because it’s what’s in your heart. I grew up with you I was born 61 and you always made people happy your truly amazing

[@tessariley5436]

I don’t think there is anybody on TV that made me laugh as much as Michael. Please come back to our TV screens. You are much loved and missed.

[@joysynmonds9082]

Being so ridiculous is a pure gift!!! 💖💖💖💖

[@Alkatrask]

Most numpties find nonces and wrong ‘uns funny. They call it the Forrest Gump/Rolf Harris phenomenon. Look it up. It’s called science

[@rjmusicltd]

I remember on his tv show, an old lady in the audience said her chair was uncomfortable so he took the sofa from the stage and carried it into the audience for her, all the studio team were gobsmacked but he didnt care, funniest guy on tv, miss him.

[@nicholasmith2319]

He is very much missed! He was great with people! Especially the elderly and kids!! He looks so broken now 😢 I wish it was possible to take people’s pain away ❤

[@paulettejadowski4170]

The world is so cruel, a man who made people happy, the British press have destroyed this man. I would love to see him back on tv, he was so uplifting.

[@GhostLivesMatter]

I agree!! I'd love to see him back!! Beautiful funny man!!

[@BrianBoru5523]

My point is Barrymore knows what happened that poor soul who was raped and left to die in a pool even after being seen by Barrymore floating he didn't try save him. But it's fine because he made you laugh once upon a time. You dirty rotter!@@oldmummaroo1576

[@anneroberts9841]

Bring him back on tele a superb entertainer who was treated dreadful he was innocent and was not responsible for the death of Stuart

[@Alkatrask]

Anne how long have you been a forensic scientist? You numpty.

[@goldkhw]

I saw that on video last night. He was not thinking clearly while under the influence of what ever it was, and he ran. I think because he was more worried about possessing the illegal drugs. That's all he could think about. The illegal drugs. And no one would care about that. But in his drugged or drunken state of mind he panicked. He didn't realize that it would not have mattered. People are taking that stuff everywhere. He panicked over something that was not THAT important. He's not the type to harm anyone. He should have stood his ground. But he was not thinking clearly. I don't believe he harmed anyone. That young guy must have staggered into the pool and drowned. It's all very sad. Michael Barrymoore should put that entire event behind him. It's time to retire anyway. Do something completely different. Teach others.

[@marlenejohnson5461]

I’ve recently discovered his shows and thought him a great entertainer, I hope he is happy where ever he is today!

[@markwhittaker6321]

This man has given a lot, been through a lot and has made mistakes. I wish him happiness in his future.

[@mariaasker4815]

I met him twice after shows, back in the day, he was very quiet humble almost shy. Excellent entertainer back then.

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

He used to shop in my parents greengrocers couple times a week , what a absolute gentleman ! Remember well over 13 years ago when I joined Twitter , I followed him and told him who I was and mentioned my parents shop and he asked how they were and said their shop was great and followed me back on Twitter .

[@christinewooten4099]

I absolutely love you Michael. I live in Florida. But was born in Romford Essex. To be honest I'd heard my family talk of you when I visited but never seen or watched you. I've been watching you on KZbin lately. You're hilarious. Brilliant. Purely excellent. Like the oldies of our 50s and 60s im 66 so we're close in age. I hope you come back with new episodes. And come to US TV I think Americans would be obsessed with you xxx 😘😘😘

[@itsjemmabond]

You should follow him on Tik Tok. Plenty of archive footage.

[@Alkatrask]

I can’t believe any of this. Firstly you say you live in Florida, you offer no evidence, ditto for being born in Romford. So why should be believe you absolutely love him? And why?

[@nudisco300]

I'm a big Barrymore fan but it's really sad the time has come and gone. Back in the day there was Edmonds, Forsyth, Des O Connor, it was all family based entertainment - it's not like that now. Michael wouldn't last 2 minutes before being cancelled, most of the fun and laughter from his shows would be banned today. That clip of him having a laugh with the older lady on Strike it Rich - can you imagine that today? The woke lobby would be storming the studio and demanding the closure of the station.

Why on earth is Michael not back on our screens. He’s like a breath of fresh air. Always a very funny man. Bring him back.

[@TheDonWallzie]

@constantinethecrabbit lmao it's actually hilarious people forget this, also his story changed all time aswell as the sister of the guy. plus the amount of people that was allowed in to the crime scene afterwards to clean up any more evidence. the Pool thermo was also missing when it was clearly in the scenes after pictures. I think it's obvious what went down and he was placed in the pool almost hours after he died. everyone in the house should at that time should be locked up imo as they all knew about it and all took the silence.

He should be back on the screens. People deserve a 2nd chance don't they? They're quick to judge others but none of them were at the party when they found the body in the pool. So basically they can't judge because they weren't there. And don't know what really happened that day Not only that all the best comics have gone now so as true entertainment. It's all this realty rubbish these days. Haven't had a TV licence in years and don't miss it.

Interesting to note that Barrymore was the only “non alternative” comedian to take a turn presenting the alternative comedy variety show Saturday Live in the 1980s, and he came across absolutely fine. Barrymore wasn’t always funny but he was always pretty sound.
