Thank you Mike. This is a fitting tribute captured now for all time, to a great Welsh actor! Fabulous Mike. Thanks for putting this on You Tube for many to enjoy xoxo
Tomás Cuddihy yes I heard that Graham had passed away, I was very sad about that, I had not heard of Richard Burton Until my mum told me he was Graham's brother.
wizard327 That's so interesting and fascinating...I'm a huge fan and I can't get enough of him!! His passion for his country and his rock hard honesty is beautiful and his voice is like a lion's purr!!
Great piece of nostalgia. A real insight and education into the post Burton era. Respect Sally she looked stunning. Richard was in my opinion the greatest naturally gifted actor that's ever lived - watch his stage work and enjoy.
Sally refused to ever stay with Richard in his childhood home. She insisted on being taken to a Hotel. Elizabeth on the other hand, loved staying in the house. She washed up, cleaned and cooked. She was one of them, Sally never was
Yeah, they do seem more feminine today. The actors like Richard and Peter O Toole were very good. All the old actors were good. Nice to have those day again
Thank you Catherine, they were the best days,+ Burton should have a statue in Pontrhydyfen which is not far from where I am and i remember Hilda his sister a lovely lady had tea and welsh cakes with her at one time
wizard327 memories .........what a lovely place. My brother Bob (who lived in Clydach ) took me to see Richards birthplace 2006 love the Welsh & love Welsh male voice choirs ☘
Don't think much of Sally. She did the only thing she could do. She showed her real self and jealously by denying Elizabeth Taylor admittance to Burton's funeral. She also made sure Taylor couldn't be buried next to him when she died if she had wanted. Taylor was Burton's true love. He stated it several times. Even someone like Sally can't keep them apart. Even in death.....
A plum? Did you really write that richs family dont sound welsh enough? Good god! Are you totally unaware of the welsh heritage of the working people of Wales being legendary for their creative and artistic sensibilities? Just because they are all descended from miners doesnt mean they are without poise and an appreciation of language! How very ignorant of you.
Richard was one of the greatest actors who ever lived, he should have gotten an Oscar! Thanks for posting this

Great piece of nostalgia.

Thank for looking in Simon, Sally was lovely, thanks for looking, Burton is missed very much
Thank you Simon a great era indeed thanks for looking in
He was happy with Sally. She was stable.
Burton was the type of guy to make you proud of havin’ lived on the same planet as him.
Sally refused to ever stay with Richard in his childhood home. She insisted on being taken to a Hotel. Elizabeth on the other hand, loved staying in the house. She washed up, cleaned and cooked. She was one of them, Sally never was
sally was his nurse

Its about time Richard Burton had a statue erected.Tommy Cooper and Eric Morecambe died the same year 1984 and they have one each in their birthplace.
I agree Stephen and Neath Portalbot council should be aware of it
Great footage, nice memories. Do you remember the man who spoke to you and mentioned mum's name.
Richard Burton was a real man instead of these girly men actors of today who look and act like girls.
Yeah, they do seem more feminine today. The actors like Richard and Peter O Toole were very good. All the old actors were good. Nice to have those day again
Or want to be girls...😮
good morning
Same to you thanks for looking in

Sally ...ain't no Elizabeth Taylor!
Richard family likes to be in the public eye
Thay don't sound Welsh talking with aplum in the mouth
