  • lol. Good Korean Style End.--Jude

  • You guys rock so hard! \m/

  • I am inspired! My Mum is in her 70s and I still rely on her for so many things. I'm in my 50s and we nicely overlap on so many things and boy does she have so much to give.

    Keep up the good work.

  • I knew about you before, but i never knew about you being in The Zimmers! It's a small world...

  • I gotta say you Zimmers have more brains and rock n roll personality than all of this rubbish I see on telly. As I said before Im gonna buy the single next time Im out, maybe tomorrow but definately saturday. Especially if the profits go to Age Concern. I did love all the zimmers, you lot made me laugh. I was actually up off my chair dancin with the music. The end of this video was lovely, made me laugh with the hand gesture! was nice tho had me laughin and smilin

  • Your Fantastic.....I miss my own Grandad 'So much.'Who passed away many year's ago...We used to have many conversations about everthing and anything....Your a very interesting guy ,Rock on Peter ,And keep doing what your doing.......

  • WOW you are a zimmer!

  • You rock, Zimmers!

  • My nan thought that you put actual money into mobile phones to make them work... she'd be absolutely hopeless with a computer, I'm glad to see some old people who know what their doing =]

  • RESPECT!!!!!!

  • Thank you......You have all given me so much joy....In the most stressful, darkest part of the day, I watch your video and a smile spreads across my face. Nothing more to say but........Thank You!!

  • nice new high def cam peter!

  • Most old people don't understand these things and avoid them. But you just keep learning and getting where you want to go. Keep trying whatever you decide because you're practically the smartest elderly person on youtube.

  • None of my grandparents know how to use their computers. I doubt any of them go on youtube.

  • You are the dearest man! I joined utube tonight just to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. I am one of many here that considers you my "virtual grandfather". Your real family is very blessed indeed!

    Continued success to The Zimmers. Rock on Peter!!

  • ı love you..

  • so do i

  • Cool!! I saw on news (:

  • I'll try and buy it soon :).

  • I've just watched the programme on the BBC, WOW! It was really uplifting and inspirational I'm going straight out to buy the CD and Winifred reminds me so much of my nan who sadly passed away in february, she would have loved this too.

  • Peter, congratulations, my friend. I can't wait to see The ZImmers on Leno on June 5th.

  • peter i hope you make some more of your vids i find them very intresting that is all bye bye

  • Peter, YOU ROCK!!

  • Ahh i missed the show on bbc :( I'm sure its great though!

  • The Zimmers rock, you were on the radio in Perth, Austraila this morning!

  • Loved the video Peter and congratulations on everything especially with the Zimmers! Keep it up man! Korea, holy___ what, how...?! So cool!

    ~KK in USA

  • What a lovely way to greet the day watching you chatting about the Zimmers and the fun part at the end. The documentary highlighted how badly we treat our older people here in the UK and how much older people have to say and contribute given half the chance. Zimmers for number 1 and lets hope that soon UK older people will have the same rights under the Human Rights Act as our prisioners! :)

  • I love the single.  It's amazing. I purchased it from the iTunes store. I also watched the documentary and enjoyed that!

  • omg you rock! she't CUTE and you're the best grand dad ever!!

  • I watched that documentary on BBC2, enjoyed it.

  • I'd consider it an honour if I live to be as old as you to be half the man you are. Fantastic video. Good luck with the single :)

  • your soo cool :D

  • Going to the store to purchase my copy of the zimmersband this weekend.Good luck Peter.Your video was extra cute this time.I laughed out loud.(lol)

  • Thank god Peter, I think your spammers got tired but you should DELETE their comments!

  • Good luck with it, I for one intend to purchase it.

  • Good luck with the record, I hope you raise plenty of money for the charity!

  • saw you on bbc 2 and graham norton your band member grace was really funny smashing everthing well hope everything is well and the single to top 10

  • Saw you on Graham Norton and on BBC2 the other night. Hope the single does really well!!

  • I bought it

  • If we chart the single near the top 10 (with everybody's help) Peter has already picked out the song he wants to record for you all. But it will only happen if you help it get into the charts. So Please act now!

    OSK

  • Thanks for participating in such a worthwhile venture. I received my copy of your CD in California, USA today.

  • I personnaly think your video rankings should all be at 5 stars. the reason why it isnt is because of some people who just didnt like the video and rated it 1 star

  • Hey, u were on tv like 4 months bak

  • The Zimmers were great- a fan from USA

  • wow you are in the zimmers bloody hell how awesome is this woo can i get your autograph by the way this comment is not a joke i love the zimmers

  • Re BBC prog.

    Very poignant words from the poor lady who unfortunately fell down on the floor and said "this is reality" Although diagnosed with dementia and frail she said this with dignity. As a non believer in religion I try to come to terms with reality. Its hard going. The very best of luck with where all this is going Peter and like I have said in the past, please let me know if I can contribute in any way.

  • Vendel, Endless questions without answers in reality or religion. Pretending to give many answers, faith in whatever form, gives many peace of mind in their own reality. Others take advantage of hopes through faith and abuse it in many ways for their own "good", creating for many a life filled with death and destruction.

    The more we discover, the less we understand. A lifelong search is óur reality. And giving hope by taking care of those who need it most.

    So take care and give hope.

  • Saw it last night aswell. Great!

  • I saw it last night and I loved it :D. Good luck on a shot at the charts mate :D

  • watched bb2 last night... outrageous treatment... glad u are using your "fame" for good... how many watches must winifred steal????

  • it's not so bad to make the video, for charity after all.programme was good, Winifred is my favourite though *hides my watch* ;-) . Alf did well, as for buster he's been watching "pistols" punk videos?, all bands need a rebel. If you made new friends out of it , it's a bonus.

  • Good on you Peter!!

  • I love the zimmers! I watched the documentary last night on BBC2, i think its terrible how the elderly are treated in society. Hopefully it'll change soon thanks to you lot and I hope you get to number 1! xx

  • I watched BBC2 last night. Everyone seems to have had a lot of fun. Some scenes were distressing. but on the whole is was great fun.

  • I've just watched the programme and it made me ashamed that we treat our older people in this way but the programme also made me laugh! I've just tried to buy the single from Amazon and there is a 5 to 9 day wait for it which must mean its selling like hot cakes! I also just have to say that it is my 2 year old nephews favourite song at the moment. He dances round the room every time he here's it. So good luck and lets hope for a number 1.

  • Dang you are just having so much fun these days! I have to remind myself not to envy you. Take care Papi!

  • Saw you on tv twice in omne week - on the Graham Norton show and then last night on a special programme about the zimmers - Peter you are wonderful and it looks as if you and your friends are really enjoying yourselves - we will be buying the cd.

    Power to the zimmers - take care x

  • I caught the program on BBC2 by accident (here in Belgium) and was truly inspired!! I hope the living situation for the elderly in Britain (and everywhere) is significantly improved through this effort!

  • Thank heavens for geriatric1927...God Bless you Peter!

  • Isn't it wonderful what sharing can do for the world. People can learn a lot from you Peter. I know I have. Bless you and bless all peoples who share a need for love and understanding.

  • fun stuff, cute reporter there at the end, well, we love you from across the pond as well...

  • Has it been released in the US yet? I can't find it on iTunes.

  • I haven't seen the programme yet, but I have seen the advert before EastEnders aired tonight. Good luck with the single, hope it's as big a success as you are.

  • Hello Peter,

    I just wanted to say, best of luck with the single! The show tonight had me howling with laughter and blubbing all at the same time. I really hope it makes a difference.

    Take care and keep on rocking!

  • You look like a rock star Peter. May you keep on rockin' on ! ! !

  • i didnt know we had such old people blogging on youtube.. no offense or anything..

  • He is one of the most famous youtubers.

  • yes i clearly see that, and im surprised by how such an old person can be soo famous on youtube no offense or anything..

  • No offense taken. Youtube is just a tool. The elderly are often the smartest of people. But young greenhorns often think they are smarter than them. No offense or anything.

  • the elders of the community are away ahead. Remember anyone between the ages of 55 and 90 were sixties swingers, rock and rollers and bobby soxers of the fifties. Anyway Peter's blogs are absolutely spot on

  • having lots of fun, peter! hehe

  • Great video Peter. All your videos are just so interesting! Keep up the great work and be sure to add more.

  • Great achievement - I have sent you an e-mail which I hope will reach you, I too am an "old body -young mind" coming up to 85years next month.

  • Hi Peter, nice video!

    I saw you and The Zimmers on The Graham Norton Show, you really brought the house down! Unfortunately I was out for the show tonight and was gutted that I missed it but I did see Grace (I think it was?) wreck the dressing room the band had on Graham's show! Keep up the good work and I hope to see The Zimmers get bigger and bigger.

    All the best.

  • ???????????

  • You are the BEST! What a great role model you are!

    THANK YOU!

  • Great program tonight Peter. Good to see that finally people in care homes or that live by themselves are getting their opinion said and it being heard. Just downloaded my copy of your song off Itunes, it's going well! Good luck to everyone.

    Rory Glover.

  • Go crawl back under your Rock you Rascist Breeding Loser.

  • So tell me Peter, what's it like being a rock star?

  • Great program. A great bunch of people. Makes me sick and ashamed of MY generation for letting it get to this though. As I was watching, I was thinking these folks need to get on the internet, they'll never be lonely again!!

  • p.s when I say letting it get to this I mean the state of those care homes...something needs to be done, Now !

  • I couldn't agree more.

  • i JUST WATCHED THE PROGRAM OF THE ZIMMERS AND IT WAS AWESOME, IM 18 AND THOUGHT IT WAS GREAT WELL DONE TO EVERYONE WHO TOOK PART AND TO YOU THE LEAD SINGER!!! YOU ALL DID BRILLIANT :D

  • It was a good programme, although I don't think the watch-stealing granny bit really worked. And couldn't they have come up with a better title than 'The Great Granny Chart Invasion'?

    But overall, it was very good, made some very important points and I'll certainly go and buy the single.

  • I heard about the Zimmer thing a while back - but it never occured to me that you were gonna be on there.

    Were you on Graham Norton's show? It only dawned on me till I saw one guy and I thought "Hey, he looks like Geriatric1927...and he's also called Peter".

    Congrats Dude!

  • Well done Peter and The Zimmers!

    What a fantastic song! I've already downloaded my copy, which seems to be a massive hit on iTunes!

    I believe Geriatric 1927 was on Graham Nortons show. Check out Grahams podcast at his BBC website page.

    Best wishes and good health,

  • Just watched you on BBC 2. Great job Peter. Wish the rest of the Zimmers the best of luck from me.

    Take care.  =]

  • Am I the only one who thinks geriatric1927 should of had a cameo in the Zimmers song?

  • well done peter just sin u on tv XX

  • Yea, I am right now watching you on BBC 2.. Your a good singer :]

  • thank you for all you are doing to raise awareness that older adults are valuable and full of fun and life.

    Im just watching power to the people, I'll have to get a copy for the folks at our Alzheimer Scotland drop in group in Aberdeen they'll love it

    All power to you

    Pamela

  • Haha, that made me smile, the girl with the sign 'Alf, I want your babies!'

    Great docu! Also very upsetting at places, seeing this happen to people.

  • I'm currently watching Power to the people. I think that you and your fellow Zimmers have really raised the issue of the older people in our countries not being looked after as well as they ALL deserve to be! I mean, who made this nation what it is today if not the people who came before us? We need to respect our older people. After all, we are all going to grow old, it's a certainty of life.

  • also think you may have a thing for one of the ladies there =P haha

  • Yeahh samme dudee!! this man ruless!!! "talkin bout my generation"

  • im watching the documentary AS WEE SPEAK!

  • I just saw you on tv right now! I think it's fantastic this whole idea, I'm it's brilliant you're supporting them. Lets hope the single does really well!

  • all the best to you peter and your fellow zimmers

  • Hey Peter, I've just downloaded The Zimmer's single, it rocks. I hope you tour in my hometown of Norwich,England :D. Also watching that Power To The People program as well :D

  • Hi all, I play table tennis on a |Monday afternoon in our local community centre - on e of our ladies is 84 this year and another is 79, I am just a baby at 52 - they are so nimble and fit for the first half an hour - I can only beat them when they start to lose stamina!  The are simply fantastic!!!

  • I just bought the song off itunes, thanks for the little reminder!

  • Peter you are lovely and inspiration to all of us

    By the way did you lose weight?

  • Should see my 75 year old father in law singing and skiing without leaving the living room.Just click on my name young man.

  • lol

  • Saw you on Graham Norton, was really good, hope the song gets to number 1, I'll keep an eye out for it

  • quit trying to make a buck

  • Yes, because just what could be worse than lending your voice to make money to help the needy elderly? Shocking lack of morality, really.

    What part of "PROFITS TO AGE CONCERN." don't you understand?

  • Hi! I just subscribed because I need a break from the negativity. People like you make the Internet more civilized, and that's definitely no easy task. Thanks for teaching us youngsters to aspire to greater things than racism, porn, violence, and Renetto.

  • Peter,

    I have just caught up with your videos my good sir and I must say, it is nice to see someone of your generation embracing the internet! To be honest, your even better at using a computer than myself and I am 19 years old.

    Anyway, will try to watch the programme tonight and looking forward to seeing more updates when you can! Best of luck to the Zimmers, too!

  • Peter I just saw you on Graham Norton last night, i'll watching the documentary on 2 tonight of course as well:)

  • The clip at the end is so cute! This much be such an exciting and interesting time for you Peter. :)

  • If you're looking to see any of the content on the BBC's website and you're not in the UK, you won't be able to view it. If anyone knows a way around this please send a PM to me.

  • Adorable! I love you! you are the best!

  • Lovely! and you look fantastic!

  • I don't know what it is about you today but this video you look great. Kinda younger looking. What is it? Did you get a hair cut or get different glasses or something?

  • Wow! You are an inspiration

  • Take it easy dude.

  • You are so beautiful.

  • Hi Peter. I hope you find yourself well. I like the end of this video! Cute. Hello, Korea!

  • are you okay Peter? be sure to rest up!

  • Saw you on Graham Norton.. you warm my heart Peter. Keep on being cool, you YouTube legend!

  • korean sounds funny lol

  • Peter, take care of yourself. You look exhausted. Thanks for the info on the Zimmers, I will enjoy seeing them do very well. I am absolutely sure this release will be huge. Now you get some well deserved rest.

  • I watched the Graham Norton show, and you all seemed to be having a whale of a time, especially Grace lol. Hope the record sells in it's millions. I have had people from New Zealand post the video on their blogs in Yahoo 360! Hope all is well with you Peter.

  • wow, sound like it was lots of fun, and you looked kinda worn out ;)

    keep on rockin bro!

  • I JUST POSTED A VIDEO RESPONSE TO THIS

  • Don't be a moron, fattoothlessoveralls. Keep up the good work and best of luck with the album, Peter. I look forward to another "tell all."

  • stumpie2 was here((smiles))

  • Hello Peter, I saw you with the Zimmers on Graham Norton earlier. Great performance!

  • The Zimmers project made it's way onto CTV News a week or so back here in Canada. I'll be keeping an eye out for it on the legal download sites.

  • wow peter, i can see its late, nice hair! Mine isnt any better! :P

  • I have an opposite take on your Channel. Ever since you did the video with that girl, I have started watching all your videos. Go Adam Smith. Yea, for capitalism.

  • Hello, Peter! Good to see you! ;)

    Dear, I don't care who you do vids with- I will still watch you. You are one of the 1st people I suby'd! :)Just remember, luv: be yourself. Don't sell out. You can be as popular, & e-lebrity as the next Renetto, as long as you stay the same Peter with which I fell in love.

    Peace to you,

    Teresa :)

  • Sorry, Peter. Since you did that Video with TheHill88, I won't be watching anymore of your Video's. I always thought you wouldn't get pressured into the "YouTube" corporate machine but it looks as though you have. Shame really, You reminded me of a genuine old soul. It's probably not your fault as much as it is YouTubes. but that's ok. People get fooled all the time. I wish you all the best for the future. Goodbye.

  • Looking forward to seeing the Zimmers that will be visiting the USA. Welcome!

  • I saw you and The Zimmers on the news here in Australia. :D

  • Congratulations once again Peter - and I think you look so fresh and indeed, younger after this whole experience !
