Pete Postlethwaite awarded the 'Grimethorpe Oscar'.

This man was such a wonderful, versatile actor. From "you'll never kill me, Sharpie" which made you hate him, to Brassed Off when you liked him. True sign of a great actor.

Pete was denied an Oscar AND a knighthood both of which I think was despicable. But in my world he will always be 'SIR Peter Postlethwaite'! Miss ya mate.

What a Wonderful Tribute To A Great Gentleman And To All Those That Starred In Brassed Off The Film RIP PETE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED WITH AFFECTION AMAZING ACTOR WHO WAS A VERY DOWN TO EARTH MAN GOD BLESS XX

A wonderful tribute to one of the best actors ever.... Seen "Brassed Off" a thousand times, I can't imagine how people must have felt when they lost their job, and, even more sad, the will to live.... I will always remember Pete, RIP!!

One of our most underrated actors. He deserved more than one win!

Fantastic actor. I haven't played in about 38yrs. Seen Brassed off many many times and wished I hadn't gave up. Well now I'm back to playing with a brass band and played at Hillsborough Castle!

A wonderful human being and outstanding actor. Bless you Pete

😢probably one greatest actors almost forgotten, 😢 A gentleman. Respect, honesty. morals. Unfortunately missing today in BRITAINS

Humbling to watch. What a guy!

BRILLIANT ACTOR BRILLIANT FILM, has to be M favorite film of ALL Time and my goodness there have been some good films but this one captured the people of the time and one mans desire to keep his people his mine his town on the map great spirit just a bloody awesome film

Never seen this before! I have watched 'Brassed Off' countless times, and it is still one of my all time favourite films. What a fantastic and well thought out tribute to ''Pete Postletwhaite' a wonderful actor and to who he portrayed. But let us not forget the supporting cast who made the film the Icon that it is. However most importantly, let us not forget the the villages and community's and their populace, such as 'Grimethorpe' and many, many others that were so massively effected by the closures. These communities contain the unsung heroes that deserve the most recognition and praise for what they managed to do and to carry on with in the face of overwhelming odds. These places still exist to this day! Well done to you all!

Just beautiful, a lovely man

The sight and sound of the Grimethorpe band playing Danny Boy on the passing of Pete speaks volumes about the people of Grimethorpe.

He looked truly touched receiving his award.

A great character actor. He made an impression, in every role he played.

Great man, great town, great country and a very nice movie that still gets me in tears, and not because Tenor horns are too soft.

WHY DO WE ALWAYS SEEM TO LOSE THE BEST OF US! rip Pete

Thanks for the "off camera" view of him, seemed like a great man. And that tribute to him, from 06:43. Just heartbreaking.

Fighting a cause for people’s livelihood and the journey through to the end. Best film, great actors- faces we have seen on other films and telly, peeps we know ! It’s got everything in it,laughter, emotion tears and guts…plus the Brass Band Music ..🎵.

Thank you thank you thank you this has made me so proud to be a yorkshireman what a wonderful tribute
