From television icons like EastEnders guest star Pamela Salem to longtime A Place in the Sun presenter Jonathan Irwin, we remember some of the UK’s most beloved faces that have sadly left us.
In addition to more contemporary stars, we also honor foundational talents like guitarist Tich of the 1960s pop rock band Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich. Plus, esteemed character actors such as Michael Jayston, recognized for Shakespearean theater and an acclaimed turn as Tsar Nicholas II in 1971 film Nicholas and Alexandra.
Spanning acting, music, lifestyle programming and more, these departed celebrities left lasting impacts on Britain’s cultural landscape over the last 50+ years through their talents, humor, and memorable performances. This video pays homage by spotlighting their careers, notable credits, and colorful personalities.
Beyond reminiscing through highlights of their prolific bodies of work across both the small and big screens, we also glimpse into their personal lives.

Ian Lavender was superb in ‘Dad’s Army’. I suspect he was the last member of the cast to pass. RIP Ian. Thank you for the hours of entertainment.

He was Arthur Ian Lavender
I think Stuart Organ did leave Grange Hill in 2003, but it did not end until 2008. 30 years after it started in 1978.
I loved Michael Jayston. I had a huge crush on him when I was a teenager. I remember him most for his portrayal of Mr Rochester in the BBC’s largely ignored 1973 version Of Jane Eyre which in my opinion was the ,most faithful to the book. He had a wonderful voice.
😇 Nice tribute. I am praying 🙏 that God protects their families from the greedy evil 😈 Tax-man. Be afraid, very afraid 😨 !!.................
Disgraceful they can’t get the names correct!
John Savident died March 2024? You even said in your caption and voiceover that he died in February.
thanks
Who TF is Arthur Lavender ? Never heard of him 🤔
So many mistakes and inaccuracies
I remember Michael jayston in the tv series The Power Game as child he was a brilliant actor. It seems today they don’t have the calibre of actors from that era. You believe they are the real person they play. He had style class may he rest in peace. God bless.
The first person I saw in this video was Roger Chapman... .... and he ain't dead!
"Facts Verse"? What a misnomer. If you can't even get the basics right why should anyone watch?
And Colin Bennett, of Take Hart, and many others

If you're going to make something factual get the names correct and not get names mixed up.
Eastenders isn’t a sitcom if your gonna do these “tributes” at least get the information correct
