This is the type of movie you could never remake , I don't know how to put it, but it was and still is a crap film, but it's that crap it's good in its self for the time, when people lived a simpler life than today, that's why you couldn't remake it, people wouldn't get it. A simple way of life..
Sunday afternoon will never be the same. Remember sitting down with my late Mum and Dad watching these great old time movies. Life was simple and movies where great .😢😢😢
My Dad sat me down when this was shown on the tv and said it would make me laugh and he was right. That was about 60 years ago and I'm still laughing, many thank's for this lovely version.
My late parents loved Will Hay and of course I came to as well. I love the speeded up films from those days, that steam loco looks like a Bullet Train HAHAHHA🤣😂I cant believe I ended up living only a couple of miles from 'Buggleskelly'! Such a shame the track and station are long gone only the trackbed now so Im going to look for 'One Eyed Joe'! THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES Thank you Will, Moore and Graham for the years of laughter.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I have just rediscovered Will Hay films. This one in particular is so delightful, especially the nostalgic railway sequences combined with madcap , well-timed comedy !
HA - I am sure I may have watched or listened as I worked (instead of music) to all of this mob's movies to probably more than 100 times over the years - I never get tired of these and also BASIL RATHBONE - NIGEL BRUCE - SHERLOCK HOLMES movies
My Dad loved Will Hay films watched them as a boy in Glasgow at the pictures in the 30s even the week he died he wanted a Will Hay DVD put on, he also loved Alastair Sim films.
I watched oh mr porter as a kid with my dad in the 90’s! Brings back amazing memories of weekends that somehow seemed brighter and warmer than they probably were!!
My grandfather worked with the director of this movie, Marcel Varnel at Elstree durig the early 1930's. Marcel was a fantastic director, but quite eccentric. He used to insist that no-one ever looked him in the eye, which made conversation difficult, and he also smelled quite strongly of cheese.
😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤SUCH WONDERFULL ACTORS X ALL CLEAN FAMILY FUN.HAVE LOVED THESE FILMS SINCE A YOUNG GIRL .NOW 73 YRS YOUNG .BLESS YOU FOR TRANSPORTING ME BACK IN TIME. 😂😂😂😂😂.MORE PLEASE.❤❤❤❤
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU - the best quality I have seen. I watched WINDBAG THE SAILIER last night - whist laying in much needed hot bath to relive some pain - and now this tonight in such quality. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA
It was actually filmed between Basingstoke and Alton !! The opening sequences are on LSWR main line down to Southampton ! At Waller's Ash Tunnel south of Micheldever and leaving the Tunnel and entering Southampton station !
FUN FACT: Hay was born in Stockton-on-Tees, UK which was also the birthplace of the Stockton to Darlington railway which was the WORLD'S FIRST LOCOMOTIVE RAILWAY BORN: 1825 -Hay was born 1888.

my dad would have loved this movie, so im dedicating this movie to him, he loved a good laugh and the brits were the best at it at that time. even if he was more into ace pilots and the like, he would have love the trains just as much, how you loved it dad..............❤❤❤❤❤❤
This upscaling and AI or whatever is really impressive. This is a great film, and I'm a fan of Will. Many thanks for the time and effort This must take. Your work is appreciated my friend.
My late father always used to say he loved the Will Hay movies as a kid and this was his favourite. I've watched it too, a few times, although not recently ... until tonight. Still pretty funny. The LNER train doesn't look like the LNER Azuma I was on, a couple of days ago.
I love this film for many reasons but the main reason is the windmill used for many of the scenes. It is Terling windmill (Essex, England). The village where I was born and grew up in the 1960s to 1980s. The windmill is still there today but minus it's sails and has a house built on its side.
Check out my other video about the windmill and my model of it (from about 3 months ago). Also the Prodigy's Leeroy Thornhill lived there until about 10 years ago 🤣
@@5whizz9 Bring some extra popcorn...coz there's my Norman Wisdom collection too.....and the Miss Marple (Margaret Rutherford) collection....Abbott & Costello...Laurel & Hardy....:)
Absolutely brilliant video will hay was a iconic comedian and very funny 🤣 as was the supporting cast too as I have the entire dvd collection on DVD of the late Will Hay apart from the movie The Goose Steps Out this has to be my second favourite Will Hay comedy film 😂but Will Hay in my opinion was absolutely brilliant in all his comedy movies 😂😂😊😊😊
@@railwaychristina3192 The Viables roundabout in Basingstoke has a small section of track in it. You have to look down in the middle as the road is above. I can't remember all the stations but there are the remains of a platform which was used for the World renowned Lord Mayor Treloar orthopedic hospital ( now a large housing estate ). The line spurred of the main Alton to Winchester line ( now the preserved Watercress line ). I can't remember Alton to Basingstoke, before my time, but I used to enjoy the trip from Alton to New Milton via all the town and village stations to Winchester then Eastleigh, Southampton and New Milton. Good old days. 🤗🤗
all the old comaday films from this era were great , the titfeild thunderbolt being one o ma faves , not forgetin the carry on movies plus St trinians Norman Wisdom etc , you would not be able ti call it that now though , to many busy bodies who like ti try an tell us how ti think but we can still have a good laugh at them , aye !
Oh funny film remember that funny!? When people laughed and giggled ??seems so strange nowadays where film just offer violence,sex ,killings etc..i feel sorry for the kids of today who've missed comedy like this and other great british comedy and american Saturday matinee"s i feel lucky ive got those funnies in my memory bank.lol.thank you for sharing this film.. cheer's..
@@BuggleskellyStation This films title was taken from the Music Hall song and that is the the song that opens the credits of the film. The story itself is an adaptation of the Ghost Train story but it's been adapted to feature three men who work at the station as opposed to a group of passengers who get stranded at a haunted station.
@Deano4322 there's moments like that throughout the film. In one scene Hay nearly got run over by Gladatone as the man tasked with warning him thought they'd finished filming. That was the take used in thr film. No such thing as health and safety then 😆
I wonder if anything remains in this location of Cliddesden station , there seems to be a house in the background of the signal box at 23:55 ? Also something behind Will at 26:59 but possibly just a carriage on another line if one existed behind the station.
There's nothing left sadly, the site is in a private garden now. The houses in the background are still there. We unveiled a Buggleskelly bench at the village hall in 2018 and were invited to film a fake Time Team episode by the home owner. You can see it here. th-cam.com/video/gtJTkgPOn0s/w-d-xo.html
Plz colourize and do a slide-show video, mate, of the famous B & W photographs of famed Yankee photographer Ansel Adams. Adding colour would be a banger!
Only rewatched this last week, then you come along with an even clearer version! Now I'll have to watch it again, poor me.

Filling up on Sunday lunch winter afternoins on a Sunday all cosy with mum and dad all nodding off momentarily I miss those days
watche dthis 1 million times
cheeeers for the uplaod
RIP Gladstone. She was apparently not ready for another 90 years
she was probably in a bad state of repair as she hadn't visited the railway workshop for many years and going at that speed wore her boiler out.
that’s the telly viewing sorted for tonight thanks tom 👍

This was filmed on the old Alton to Basingstoke line. The station used was Cliddesden, just outside Basingstoke.
Is this where
Brief Encounter
was filmed ?
@@paulmitchell359 No. Carnforth station oop north was the notable location.

My father introduced me to Will Hay, Phil Silvers and The Marx Bros when I was a kid Decades later I still love them.
Bilco when they accidentally enlist a monkey is the greatest episode
@@Alienalloy Hilarious.
Many years ago I bought the Will Hay box set. Love them all. 👍🏆🇬🇧
I have watched this many times and never tire of it. Spent many a nice winters evening watching with my Brother and Grandma.

This is *probably* Will's best film and best individual performance. Nice picture and sound quality. :-)

Wonderful!🚂
1937 - some great stunt work and filming on location instead of a studio, long time since i last seen this movie.
I absolutely love old comedy films will hay Graham Moffitt
One of my top 5 films of all time.

British comedy at its finest even in black and white it’s still entertaining and funny

This is awesome, I’ve only seen Ask a Policeman back in the 80’s when i was a teen and i loved it. I'm subscribed ✌🏻🇬🇧
One of his best films
brilliant thanks
Clocks forward and back made so much sense to me 😂😂😂
wow that took me back, an excellent watch in my man cave with a few drams of whisky!
The irony of having been given a station master's post at a station so remote, you have to take the bus to get within two miles of it and walk.
Imagine building a park and ride nobody can get too, ohh hang on we did that this year 😁, the world is an odd place
that was how the railway company could get shot of him with out firing him
A true legend Mr Hay. The old man is so funny as well. Your wasting your time! 🤣😂🤣😂🏆👍🏆
These three made six amazing films. But this one is my best. No PC rubbish. Just pure entertainment.

Will Hay had a serious side as he was a keen amateur astronomer. He was even responsible for discovering a spot on the surface of Saturn.

This has the same theme as Oh Doctor Beeching! Brilliant!
Yep, but they are both based on the original Music Hall Song 'Oh Mr Porter'

A gem from a more innocent age.
Oh Dr Beeching's opening theme was clearly a reference to this film's.
“Cheltenham”. Best visual gag ever.
Get me another beer and I'll show you another trick
