Today the world lost a treasure, an honorable and dedicated man, actor and a talented comedian. All from The Wombles, Jackanory, Old Jack's Boat, his appearance on Fawlty Towers and Wilfred from Doctor Who. Bernard Cribbins... You were and always will be a favored personality, in the past, present and future. Wherever it is you've gone, I hope you'll keep'em laughing and in stitches! Rest well, and godspeed! ❤️❤️❤️
And of course, not forgetting my absolute favourite film of all time, The Railway Children, as Perks. "OAKWORTH! OAKWORTH STATION!"... God bless him. A genius among the stars, now with them.
Thank you so much for uploading this. I only know his work from Fawlty Towers and Doctor Who, but this just shows how talented an actor he was. RIP BC.
@@eddief32 We all have our places we treasure the artist for the joy they created, definitely! Never to be forgotten, seeing the love for him out there is astonishing, thank you for keeping his name alive!
@@kalinystazvoruna8702 He was a man of many talents, chiefly entertaining people and making them laugh and enjoy life, as much as he did himself. Thank you for checking it out and helping keeping his name alive! :)
Bernard Cribbins was simply fabulous in everything he did..today’s so called entertainers should be ashamed at their lack of talent. We miss you Bernard! X
Sean...you have identified the sure mark of giftedness ..effortlessness ,an almost lack of interest and an automatic quality..I've noticed it in sport as well as entertainment
Mr Cribbins would be delighted to know how many of his fans are seeking out his other performances we hadn't been exposed to before. Over 7 decades of brilliance, and it wasn't enough. But it'll do, Bernard. It'll do, mate. Thank you for the laughs and the tears. Decades on, I'll still be introducing people to this wonderful entertainer. 💜 Thanks so much for posting this one!
I grew up with The Wombles and Jackanory and my son with Old Jack's Boat (which we watched together). How many other entertainers lasted that long and did so much for so many people. I know that today, I won't read a single comment that doesn't show appreciation and thanks for Bernard Cribbins' life and work.
Not a piano has been shifted since 1962 without Bernard's brilliance being recognised. 'Right Said Fred' was produced by one George Martin - shows you that quality knows quality, doesn't it. RIP Bernard and thank you.
My earliest memory of Bernard Cribbins was listening and laughing along with my mother in the kitchen as she put the clothes though the mangle rollers from the old washing machine. Bernard Cribbins was on the old bakelite radio we still had, singing the song about the ‘ole that was “round when it ought to be square” 😂😂. He’ll be so very much missed. R.I.P. dearest gentleman.
@@budgetnuclearweapons7858 Mum and me used to laugh at the way shirts came out the other end of the mangle like people flattened by steam roller 😂. Posh was wall to wall carpeting. We had linoleum and rugs.
Such a superb performance, the mix of recall, the quality of the writing, the singing, the gestures, and the timing as he responds to the audience, it's all there and it's just wonderful.
Bernard and Ronnie were great friends and as soon as he heard this track Bernard was on the phone to Ronnie to ask if he could sing it on an upcoming edition of TGOD. At the end of the show a lady in the audience told him she hadn't heard that song since she went to music hall in her younger days! A measure of the talents of both men!!
What a coincidence... I watched "Two way stretch" yesterday. Outstanding comedy with Peter Sellers, Bernard Cribbins, Wilfrid Hyde White and Lionel Jeffries among others 😄 I love classic comedies 👌👍 Thanks for uploading. Greetings from Denmark🇩🇰
And remember that the comedy was from the Edwardian era. My grandmother loved this show because she remembered all the songs from the first time round...
The Independent. Johnson, well known around the world as a despicable liar, lazy lowlife scumbag and fat scruffy spaffer in chief, is facing the prospect of a “cash for votes” inquiry into why his party used public money to “blackmail” its own MPs. During last week’s row over the long list of Paterson/Johnson sleaze enquiries, the Conservative Party whips office told backbenchers from the "Red Wall" their constituency areas would lose funding if they failed to vote with the government. Now the gimpish cabinet secretary Simon Case is to investigate the allegations - which everyone including all opposition parties, deaf and blind groups and inmates of Strangeways say amounts to yet another gross misuse of public funds and total disregard of parliamentary rules. The clown minister’s spokesarsehole confirmed the reports when questioned about them on Friday while showing complete contempt for Brexit voters, flag wavers and Red Wall constituents. In a letter to Mr Case, Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey said it has been proven that the government was “consistently threatening to withhold vital investment from communities across the UK, in an effort to blackmail backbenchers into voting in an unconscionable and immoral way. “It is unthinkable that local communities would be punished by having vital funding taken away, just because their deceitful Tory MPs attempt to defend the indefensible. Johnson, regarded widely as a waste of oxygen, said "the Red Wall voters kindly lent me their vote, it is now up to me how I best use it against them, after all, they all say they knew what they were voting for"
Truly saddened to hear of his passing, the most avuncular of uncles, big part of my childhood which he made better and how did he manage to remember all that dialogue? amazing talent.
He only ever had to walk out on to the stage and immediately I knew that I was in for a great time. Impeccable timing like a Swiss timepiece. R.I.P Bernard C. You will be missed tons ❤️🙏🏻
The little two-way ad-lib between between Don and Bernard after the slip on the stairs is a gem. Bernard even raised his hat to Don in silent acknowledgment. Beautiful.
A multi-faceted talent born when the music hall he so adroitly serves in this performance was still a recent part of British social and musical history. RIP.
Thank goodness we shall have these memories of Bernard Cribbins to treasure forever - there are a great many Good Old Days on here featuring him, he really was one of the brightest stars on this programme. How sad to have lost Barry Cryer this year, also a stalwart of the programme, and often on the same bill with Bernard. And now this week Duggie Brown also a regular on the show. Boy don't we need the laughs today. At this sad time also remember fondly, Ken Dodd, Larry Grayson, Roy Hudd and John Inman who also made us roar with kindly humour that all our families could enjoy. God Bless them all.
A brilliant entertainer in the old tradition. This TV show is a distant memory now. I would have completely forgotten about it but for this video. Most of all I remember the announcer.
I'm sure it's already been said. But what stands out to me about Cribbins is his timeless appeal. He never seemed dated, as he always seemed to follow the times (and embrace them) and that's what sustained his career. A truly unique talent.
RIP to an ex Para a true gentleman who should have been knighted many years ago - WHY NOT? I met you years ago at Fanrborough Air Show you chatted like we were mates. Make them laugh in paradise old mate.
Great fun. A national treasure for sure. Also, nowhere to hide in ''The Good Old Days'', not from the audience or from the cameras. I watched this show growing up and I'm pretty sure there were very few out-takes or re-takes. The show had a live feel, and fluffed lines and ad libs were generally left in. It was stand or fall and publish and be damned : D
Ah, but the love I see for him here will last a lifetime and further, gone but never forgotten! We always have him, in his recorded legacy and in our hearts.

Brilliant radio actor.

God, he really was the most effortless showman wasn't he? Like he could have done this in his sleep, a natural. RIP!
Sean...you have identified the sure mark of giftedness ..effortlessness ,an almost lack of interest and an automatic quality..I've noticed it in sport as well as entertainment
He was ex paratrooper as well.
This is how you capture an audience. Underplayed - effortless - hilarious.
RIP Bernard old chum, a great singer and actor will be missed by a lot

It will be my honor to show this to my children and tell them how talented he is. He will never be forgotten😥
I love the way in which even the people in the audience are dressed up in old-fashioned music hall costumes.
Was there anything this man couldn't do? Music hall, stand up, singing, dancing, jokes, ad libs, banter. And his day job was acting.
An ex-Para, too
And reading Michael Bond's Paddington for audio books.

Most of us grew up with The Wombles
I've cried twice today. I've ordered the best of cribbins on cd
Rest in Peace Bernard You was a GEM
He was a big part of my childhood in the 1970s. RIP GREAT ENTERTAINER.
RIP Great actor and comedian should have been knighted!
Not just for services to entertainment, but for improving the human condition!
Completely agree, especially given his service in the Paras; rightfully he was awarded the OBE, but Sir Bernard would have sounded perfect.
Nothing like this now, a true professional and a nice guy. RIP Bernard.
classic music hall!! What an act. The man should have been knighted. He was an absolute talent and a real British treasure!!
Not a piano has been shifted since 1962 without Bernard's brilliance being recognised. 'Right Said Fred' was produced by one George Martin - shows you that quality knows quality, doesn't it. RIP Bernard and thank you.
I watched that again today online. just superb!!
Rest in peace, Bernard.
What a performer.

Gary Leroy Exactly. As a little boy he was my hero. RIP old chap.
that song was in fact written by the late great RONNY BARKER it first appeared ion an album titled A PINT OF OLD AND THILTHY
RONNIE
@@AndrewLumsden Mr Ronald William George Barker OBE. If you want to be pedantic.
@@jasonandlynnechambers3420 No, but evidently you do.

Superb entertainer RIP Bernard
One of Oldhams finest.
RIP Bernard, One of my all time favourite people since childhood. Not just an actor but fabulous human being.
Another entertainment legend gone God Bless you Bernard
Met him at rutland fishing a few times,nice fella,tight lines up there blue.
Brilliantly professional. RIP dear sir. You helped to bring a cheer in my lifetime.
What a coincidence... I watched "Two way stretch" yesterday.

Greetings from Denmark🇩🇰
Used to stay at my Gran's and we always watched The Good Old Days, I miss her so much.
I performed on that stage in the un televised good old days in Leeds many years ago.
Ah memories ❤
RIP Mr Cribbings
Wonderful entertainer did done many things, RIP Bernard
He was a natural, fantastic showman , loved everything he did . Another good entertain gone !
the sort of show they don't do anymore......
for those of a certain age tho ( 60+ ) it sure takes you back !
And remember that the comedy was from the Edwardian era. My grandmother loved this show because she remembered all the songs from the first time round...
RIP end of an era
A true great, for all of my life.
The dance move that Wilf did going out to the Senior bus on Doctor Who was similar to the moves on this.
He was definitely talented. RIP sir.
Brilliant actor, absolutely brilliant :)

R.I.P Bernard C. You will be missed tons ❤️🙏🏻
Classic Cribbins!
Somehow what passes for talent today doesn't come to close the legends like Bernard Cribbins.
A great loss to the world of entertainment.
The little two-way ad-lib between between Don and Bernard after the slip on the stairs is a gem. Bernard even raised his hat to Don in silent acknowledgment. Beautiful.
Awesome to see The Good Old Days again - and Bernard Cribbins was a great contributor!
One limerick after one...excellent.
A truly great all round performer. From Carry on Spying, to music hall, childrens tv & Dr Who. RIP Bernard.
beautiful!
Such an abundance of talent, the man is a legend!
A multi-faceted talent born when the music hall he so adroitly serves in this performance was still a recent
part of British social and musical history. RIP.
What a showman. No one like him now.God bless him.
One of my dear, departed Airborne brothers. I remember this on the telly as a kid. RIP Sir.

Hello from Moscow.
I loved that show and the great Bernard Cribbins too! 😄👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊👍👍🇬🇧

On my 10th birthday!

Rip Bernard such a nice man met you at staithes filming old jack's boat
Gawd bless you, Cribbins
I remember the classic, "Right, Said Fred" whose title became the name of a band. "Hole in the Ground," another classic from the early '60s.
So sad to hear we have lost Bernard. God rest.
What a fabulous multi talented performer he was...and a lovely man too, I believe..
I'd really hoped to meet him some day...
Brilliant 👏
He'll be sorely missed!
God bless him. 🌹
Such brilliant timing and presentation.
