Very sad a talented man that died young Gary was part of probably one of the best TV programmes ever made

[@jeepsthetimebandit]

I always assumed he had stopped acting. I had no idea he died!

[@markdaniels2200]

Yeah he was but life cut short because of drugs..

[@spenny2100]

The Gutter Press did not help with ref poor Gary

[@bertcert991]

That’s (not)living alright

[@jan7240]

Series 1 & 2 were & still are the best of Auf Wiedersehen Pet. So sad Gary Holton passed away during the filming of the 2nd series 💔

[@GaryHoltonFan]

Series 3 onward's was never the same without Gary as Wayne

[@magicdaz]

Saw the Heavy Metal Kids loads back in the day.

[@danielsellers8538]

It just shows you do not have to know or recognise the man to recognise that he had talent. However, once again, drugs and alcohol robbed this young man of his future and his fans of a talented singer and actor Rip Sir

[@johntyler74]

Loved watching Gary/Wayne in Auf Weidersehen Pet. Didn't know anything about his musical background, but to turn down ACDC he must have had some talent! RIP Gary

[@stephenchecksfield632]

Beautiful tribute to the late Gary Holton a fantastic talented actor who sadly was taken to soon and too young gone but not forgotten R.I.P. Gary ✌️❤️

[@garypierce8392]

I'm from welshpool, I search it out myself now and again. A lot of my friends and family are there.

[@vincentsubmarinismo774]

What a character Gary played, very charismatic guy, never forgotten R.I.P 🙏

[@donhanlon7121]

I'm a big Stones fan and Gary always reminds me of Ronnie Wood. Remember Gary fondly🕯️🙏☘️

[@motley123rock]

A real talent and his scene with Barry in Auf Weidersien were hilarious! Taken way to early.

[@joeweston3252]

gary was great in auf wiedersehen pet what a tragic loss of a great actor, loved watching this so many actors made their big break in this drama series it had a bit of everything in it loved the theme song to that's living alright joe fagan l think sang it what a stunning location and church having a spruce up by the looks of it,nice old cars to.

[@sandrasmith2465]

@Joe Weston,Kevin Whately made his screen debut on Auf Wierdersen Pet and went on to be Morse sidekick and then starred in his own series Lewis with Lawrence Fox as his sidekick.

[@wendymudkins8208]

Such a sad end to a young talented life rip Gary thank you paul

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

remember him on auf wiedersen pet but years later realised he was the lead singer of the band the heavy metal kids, another casualty of the music business

[@kathrynstone3856]

Another fine actor who died far too young.

[@justinesamanthakillilea8690]

I was very young when I watched him in Auf wiedersehen pet

[@LindaRacic]

One of my all time favourite shows was Auf Wiedersehen Pet, used to love watching it on Friday nights as a kid with my dear late parents. I loved all the characters and actors but Wayne was my favourite. So sad , RIP Gary.

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

Loved Gary ❤ such a talented actor , was so so sad when he passed will be looking forward to this Paul xx ❤ RIP GARY x

[@David_Mc_Our_God_Reigns]

Hey Maria hope your ok hun? How have you been? Xx

[@sandykenuk]

This was so sad, so young. Rip

[@theculturedthug6609]

He would have went on to more than likely more classic British TV shows and no doubt more AP.

[@sharonrushton2493]

I loved him when I was younger, so talented

[@brendakrieger7000]

RIP

[@martinestimpson5574]

He was very talented actor so sad he was only young,and his son was only 2 bless ❤❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@vernacarlyle1574]

Being from the states,I don't know some of these people. But I see their faces and remember them. Or not. I really enjoy this program.

[@curtisrobinson7962]

I checked and season 1 episode 1 of Auf Wiedersehen Pet is here on KZbin, though I haven't watched as yet. It's an interesting title for a television program.

[@dryflyman7121]

Do try to get Series 1 and 2 of Auf Wiedersehen Pet, Germany then England and Spain, you will love it. It’s a brilliant comedy drama of 7 young bricklayers, carpenters and an electrician trying to find work in a Margaret Thatcher destroyed Britain and then finally having to go abroad for work. All different characters with complex lives. Well recommended. Auf Widersehen is obviously German and means goodbye or we’ll meet again and Pet is a term of endearment in the NE of England especially Newcastle where three of the lads are from.

[@geoffpoole483]

Auf Wiedersehen Pet had a very talented cast who seemed to "click" right from the off, and was written by the same writing team that wrote Porridge. The tv play "The Knowledge" can be found on KZbin. It's about a group of people learning the streets of London in order to become black cab drivers. So sad that Gary died so young when he had so much going for him; it's particularly sad that his son would've barely known him.

[@theculturedthug6609]

Do you know if his son is in the same business as his late father?

[@davidreed3246]

Another chilled vlog about an actor who passed away too young. I love walking around graveyards for their peace and tranquillity. Church architecture is a passion of mine and it’s always great when one is open. Thank you for your time and dedication Paul.

[@phil7301]

He had tried to sort his life out, but the good old UK press pushed him over the edge. RIP GARY 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@keith4usa1]

I Remember this Programme didnt watch it a lot, but enjoyed it when i did......Just to let you know Paul Yesterday Sat 3rd June we Drove to Rottingdean St Margarets Church (Lovely place and Beautiful old Houses) and Visited the Resting Place of Gary Moore, thanks to you showing his Location.....Looks like someone has Taken his Little Amp and Les Paul Toy Guitar away.......

[@UnusualThings1]

Cool, you went shame people take things… quite sad when they do that

[@sandrasmith2465]

@@UnusualThings1 Paul it was the same with Jim Morrison’s grave in the La Pierre Le chaise (I probably got the spelling wrong) cemetery in Paris,people used to steal things off his grave but when I went there,there were armed guards.His grave has flowers,empty wine bottles and doobies left there lol...😂

[@melvincalladine8187]

So sad for Gary , that was great Paul and that church was something else .

[@darranweston9425]

The last series he starred in was a great example of Gary's humour and talent, especially in the pub scenes with Arthur the landlord, just sheer fun. Loved this one Paul, thank you. Given that many of Auf Wiedersehen, Pets cast came from my neck of the woods, namely Tim Healey (Dennis), Kevin Whately (Neville) and Jimmy Nail (Oz) made it a legend.

[@markandrew8461]

Very sad that Gary died so young. Very talented and charismatic.

[@jamesmcbride6304]

Used to love watching Auf weidersehen pet, great characters in it. so tragic how these talented people just crash and burn, really sad. Another good one paul always look forward to them.

[@carlrobson5745]

[@100SteveB]

Such an iconic television series, Gary playing such a great role. I can remember the shock I felt when the news broke of his death, tragic to pass so young.

Remember the show with very fond memories, loved every character and the way they always looked ouout for each other, so hearing about Gary's passing midway through filming season 2 was very sad indeed.

I really liked Gary in Auf Wiedersehen Pet, funny enough the very first series was filmed exactly where Eastenders set sits right now. The big explosion at the end I could see from my bedroom window. Great video as always.

[@patriciataylor1111]

Sad loss, taken to soon. Lovely vhurvh.

[@susanharrison-ne6qx]

I watched and was fascinated about his death as I'd forgotten exactly how he'd died. Much as I tried u couldn't find or join in the live feed 🤔🤷‍♀️...no idea why....never knew he was offered the AC/DC lead....interesting stuff , thanks Paul 👍 🙏

[@robincadle3403]

Loved Auf Wiedersehen Pet, one of the best shows ever shown on British television. Gary was such a big part of the show. It was never the same after his passing. Such a shame that he left us at just 32. RIP Gary! Thank you Paul for another excellent video. Your video's are so interesting. You do the things that fans or admirers would like to do, if they had the time to do them. Keep up the good work.

Remember that episode when it was announced he had past. So sad. Think they used a body double for some of the remaining studio episodes when they returned to the UK from Spain and when he died. Great actor and singer.

[@annfahy2589]

Gary was a very charismatic actor…who had a great presence on screen, seems odd that Gary a quintessential cockney should find his final resting place in Mid Wales…with family I know.
