Hearted Youtube comments on Wandering Turnip (@wanderingturnip) channel.

  1. Don't usually leave comments but just wanted to let you know that this made me walk 15 mins to my local chippy

  2. This video is absolute truth. My family have owned a fish & chip shop for 58 years and I can put it into perspective for you. Before the war in Ukraine broke out, we were paying around £80 for a freshly frozen (at sea) box of fish. After the war, that went up to £250 PER BOX. That then came down to about £170, but it was still double the price and that's only one of the commodities that skyrocketed. Add to that the fact that our electricity bill went up by THOUSANDS and it kinda tells you why fish & chip shops have had no choice but to raise prices. We HATE having to do it, but it's just necessary. Businesses like ours are dropping like flies. You're absolutely right. It's not profiteering - it's survival. Plain and simple.

  3. Thanks so much for accepting my invite and coming back for a second look! I hope I didn't get any of my history wrong. Sorry to people who know better, if I did. It's been a long time (clearly) since GCSE History for me. Seeing you recognised on more than one occasion was a real buzz, this series clearly means a lot to people. And the best thing about Youtube is that it's interactive and a comment like the one I left can inspire a second visit. I expect you will be getting a lot of invites in future! If you want to come back some day and do a 'cheapest houses in Nottingham' that might also be a good one and I'd be happy to help. Cheers, Rob @ForestFanTV

  4. Greg's closing down has got to be the nail in the coffin for any town. 😂

  5. Don't think you're being negative. This is top class journalism.

  6. Loving this series because you are showing the real face/state of the UK that the majority of us experience on a daily basis (not what our corporate media and government, want to talk about or show the rest of the world). You are doing a public service young man, but watch yourself because a certain section of society won't like it. Don't let noone hold you back. All power to ya 🙏🏿

  7. "Gentrification of a working class meal." Loved it!

  8. This guy is more than a decent presenter, who would kick half the wannabee's on the box. Natural, engaging & genuinely authentic. Keep doing what you're doing.

  9. My home city. My beloved Sheffield. The place where I had some of the best times in my life. The wild stories my mum told me of Mojos, The Fiesta & Josephine's & where I spent my childhood in the working mens clubs of the of the 70's & 80's & where I clubbed throughout the brilliant nightlife of the 90's..The Leadmill, The Drop City Hall, Cairo Jax, Niche & where I spent all my Saturdays walking round all of the vintage clothes shops, record shops, Castle Market & The Forum. Sheffield has a very special place in my heart. So I'm probably going to watch this & cry. If anyone has a time machine, I'd like to go back to Sheffield in about 1991 thanks........

  10. A lot of small UK businesses don't shout loud enough about what they do. This series will be a good one.

  11. People who complain about the negative aspect of some of your videos don't realize that what you're on about isn't so much how bad things are but how much better they could be. This video highlights a success story; a little investment comes up a winner. Keep up the good work!

  12. "What keeps bringing ya back?" "The train...lol" Legend

  13. It is said, William the conqueror also got stuck on the ring road and couldn’t find a parking spot for his Renault Megane.
    317
  14. Turnip property sales and lettings 🤣🤣🤣
    317
  15. Reading the numerous posts about Nottingham being less in a decline than depicted in the last vlog, I think the fact Turnip went right back to do a part two and cover areas suggested shows how he truly cares about representing these cities fairly.. Hard hats off to you, David! 👷‍♂️👏😄 I've been looking forward to this.. Instant thumbs up from me, as always.. 👍
    312
  16. Ladies get you a man that talks about you the way wandering turnip talks about chimneys Congrats on 100k mate
    309
  17. Duncan is what you call a true entrepreneur. Took a risk that people thought he was crazy to do but with a bit of foresight and initiative, he's made money AND regenerated the town. Well done 👏
    286
  18. Leasehold: the biggest scam in property "ownership." Thanks for reminding me why I left London. 🥳
    279
  19. As a British person I’m biased but I have to say the wild, rugged, beauty of Britain and it pastoral history is unparalleled.
    275
  20. WT - this structure using Orwell’s book as the narrative engine of the trip is superb . Love seeing your presenting growth .
    265
  21. Never knew I was part of the origin story of Wandering Turnip! Love it. Keep up the great work mate.
    245
  22. Boss idea to revisit with a local. I can imagine you're gonna have a lot of fans asking to do this in the future.
    238
  23. You and Wendall do great work in this field. Considering the financial weight of UK domestic TV channels, YouTube documentaries like these are often better and without bias. Keep it up. Regards from the south east. 👍
    232
  24. Soon, we will all be dead. When I see stuff like this something stirs within. Something like a yearning for freedom and a hope I could do something similar one day. Good for you.
    226
  25. I've always said that no matter how "uninteresting" a topic is, listening to someone who's passionate and enthusiastic talk about it will always make it much more interesting. Thank you for making a video about Bradford that isn't just looking for the unpleasant aspects. And congrats on hitting 100k! Absolutely well deserved.
    216
  26. The UK seems entirely broken at the moment so to hear a positive story like this is just brilliant.
    213
  27. I saved an absolute fortune this Black Friday, by buying f*** all 🎉
    187
  28. Liverpool is honestly my favourite city in the UK, everything is so close together and the gothic architecture is too good.
    186
  29. Great to see local communities turning derelict houses into green spaces
    180
  30. @mcrand7887  no it isn't. But that doesn't stop it from having a global effect.
    172
  31. War in ukraine >> less Black sea fishing and almost no exports from ukraine >> less fish on the global market >> higher prices
    145
  32. When you hear the term True British values and wonder what it means, this is a fine example, hats off to you folks.
    142
  33. Black Friday all year round item is £30 Black Friday used to be £35 now £30

  34. 1. I played football on that football pitch 2. I worked at that closed pub 3. I learnt to ski at the ski slope 4. I made slippers at Lambert Howarths mill for about 1 week when 16 deciding it was not for me. As far as I am aware they moved all the manufacturing machinery to Malaysia for the work to be done there and now just sell the slippers as retail points. I live in Tod now so in 48 years "emigrated" about 8 miles 😂 Your videos are always thoughtful and ernest. Top man
    136
  35. I live in Accrington and have done all my life 😊 I'm only 41 mind. I have never seen your content before but I saw you getting the half a brick from poundland and were curious as to what you were doing until I saw someone post your video on a local forum. I just wanted to say thank you, people come to these run down towns that used to be the backbone on the country and do nothing but slag it off and it's people. The town might be run down thanx to the councils ect but the people take pride in what they have and will do anything for people 😊. I love your content mate, not because you came to Accrington ,the rest on your content is second to none. I love your enthusiasm and the fact you can see past the the disrepair and deadness of the places you go and take people as you find them 😊
    130
  36. I love that the third one is only marginally worse-looking than some of the London houses you've shown.
    129
  37. A very eloquent and interesting co-host with you this week - thoroughly enjoyed it !
    121
  38. Truly devastating when we erase history, it’s something we should preserve and not destroy for profit. Thank you for appreciating our history Turnip xxx
    120
  39. As a semi-retired furnace engineer and metallurgist, I really enjoyed and appreciated your video. Well done🇬🇧 I have fond memories of Sheffield and of the skill and friendliness of the people.
    119
  40. Talking about how your distant grandfather had to move coal, and you walk around carrying a camera to record things--having some coal mining in my family history (in another country), I would have to say that your ancestor would most likely be thrilled that you are not in the mines, and think that you are doing a valuable service with your camera and your words. Well done.
    117
  41. What a lovely heartfelt and fitting tribute to John the Waller. I’m sorry you never got to meet him and make that film. It seems he’s still with you though, and all those who admire his walls for many years to come. What a solid legacy. Rest in peace John. Keep on trucking David 🥾🥾
    115
  42. I'm an electrician by trade. I used to fit grommets all the time in back boxes etc. I never used to think where they came from? I always thought they came from abroad! Who would have thought? That was really good that video! Good luck with the new series!
    115
  43. YouTube just NOW decided to reveal this in the algorithm. How have I missed this?!? Some of the best content on the web! People ought watch this and learn.
    113
  44. I can watch what I like, even if it is some English bloke at the other side of the planet from me who goes into moldy houses or drafty malls, and this is good shit, my man.
    112
  45. Emily Brontë wrote Wuthering Heights. Despite what people think, it is largely set indoors. As a kid you think it is a Great Love Story: as an adult, you see it as a tale of how violence is passed down generations and can be overcome - people forget the ending, where Cathy Linton and Hareton Earnshaw are happy together. Charlotte wrote 4 books, Anne wrote 2. Emily only published one. She was working on another when she died, but her rather controlling sister Charlotte destroyed it. The Brontës were half Irish btw: Their father Patrick came from Ulster, and rose, incredibly, from peasant life to being a Cof E minister. His wife died young and he outlived all six of his children. Tragic life, but sadly common at that time. You won't find me being nostalgic for the days before antibiotics!

  46. Brilliant advert with the suitcase, so funny.
    99
  47. Of COURSE the council want to tear it down. It wasn't built by an "approved contractor" (the brother-in-law of the Clerk Of Works).
    98
  48. love this ....Kudos to him ..nothing but love soul in that workshop ....you can see this is person who proud of his work and it shows
    96
  49. Not your first foreign video - you've done plenty that were not in Yorkshire.
    95
  50. Pretty diverse community that have all come together to preserve a traditional social hub, fantastic to see.
    92
  51. Thank you David for coming down to meet us at Grommets HQ and for a brilliant video! We love it 🤩 it was lovely to meet you. Many thanks Charlotte, Jo and all at Grommets Ltd 😊
    92
  52. Seriously turnip your content is getting better and better and it started off brilliant in the first place. This episode was outstanding. I too, even though I’m a soft southerner have mining in my family history and the story of your great……grandfather and others like him I found very moving. A fascinating history and family story to be proud of for sure.
    91
  53. I live in Accrington, and worked at Accrington brickworks with my dad, he started there from when he left school at 15, definitely the strongest bricks ever, thank you for the video.
    91
  54. It's great to see immigrants to the uk talking about what they like about britain, the american guy's enthusiasm about curry sauce and chips and the german guy talking about mushy peas in the fish and chips video was kinda heartwarming, would be good to see more of that kind of stuff, we could do with a bit of positivity in this country.
    90
  55. After 6-7 hours I got through and it was £1035 for 3 tickets due to dynamic pricing I was like ok let’s do it. Then it went to checkout and crashed. Gutted but also relieved as that was a lot of money.
    87
  56. Not far from you are submerged beneath the sea, medieval villages, it's been happening for centuries, the reason is that after the ice age the ice melted, the west of the UK lifted and the east dropped, see Harlech castle in west Wales, now many miles from the sea, but used to be supplied directly from the sea, this land tipping into the North sea is still happening. Erosion is just part of it, as it had been when before the North Sea existed, it was a fertile area known today as Dogger Land, see many other posts on this subject. Like what you are doing, great site and your enthusiasm.
    87
  57. "YOU MUST CONSUME! OR YOU WILL BE EXTERMINATED!"
    84
  58. You should write a book about your experiences of viewing these dilapidated properties You could call it "50 Shades Of Mold "
    83
  59. John the Waller was my Dad. He loved his walls, he loved the outdoors but more importantly he loved people. I’ve not come across this channel before. I’ll be sure to watch.
    81
  60. Dark period bollocks.This is part of our heritage.I'm so sorry,it should be saved!

  61. vinyl was never dead it was just hybernating
    80
  62. I appreciate you showing me places in Europe like Yorkshire Hills. I live in Hawaii and never been there or anywhere in that part of the world. Keep up the good work you are doing showing places like this and the other places you’ve been traveling to that I have seen on your channel. Because of your work I’m able to see a part of your world and listen to what you have to say about all the places you travel to. Aloha ke akua!!’
    80
  63. As a Bradfordian, Thank-you and well done on 100k
    80
  64. This is one of my favourite channels on YouTube. The videos are always so interesting.
    79
  65. WT - you are now the real time English historian . Putting context on the state of the nation . Keep it up please .
    78
  66. When a chippy doubles in price you need to remember, their food has gone up 20%+, energy 10 to 20%, council rates/rent 10-40%, workers wages gone up 30%. It just doesnt make sense how they can still keep in business to me nevermind trying to say places are ripping you off.
    76
  67. I remember growing up and my Dad always had such great tools (which were his father's tools from Sheffield like hand drills, spanners, planes, wrenches etc) - even his toolbox was steel and had that strong gun-oil smell. It blew my mind that they seemed so indestructible. Then I grew up and experienced Chinese screwdrivers that can't even get through their first use without some kind of damage 🤣. He has used those same tools for 60 plus years and they are still going strong.
    73
  68. The Three Tuns Pub was one of the original coaching Inns for the London to Bath run. The area out back were stables for the horses. The Herschel Pub was a lively Irish pub. Sad to see such decay. The chimney in the Trading Estate is for the independent power station. Slough Estates Ltd owns the entire land there. From an old ex-Slough person.
    71
  69. The Oasis "time to top up the bank accounts" tour.
    70
  70. Glad I managed to get you halfway onto your journey, never realised how northern I sound 😂
    70
  71. Great video, I am 71 years old and lived in Accrington all my life. The town is dying but the people are very friendly.
    69
  72. Dude I don't think these vids are depressing at all, it's shining a light on what's going on in reality. Keep it up!
    68
  73. Emotional video - we owe a lot to the miners. There job was so important that they weren't conscripted in the wars
    68
  74. Your channel is excellent. Using Orwell to drive the narrative was a brilliant idea. I'd love to see more like this
    66
  75. Honestly, THIS is how you do a documentary. BBC and others have 6 figure salary presenters giving very biased views, and this guy is out here embarrassing them all. Fascinating video, and now I'm locked in to binge everything on your channel.
    66
  76. The graffiti pedestrian street you showed never had shops on it. One side was a hotel, the other side a night club (Madisons, when I used to go to go in the 1980's). Great video mind.
    63
  77. The guide was very apt on analysis between Primark and Debenham. We pay a bigger price for selecting the lower price.
    62
  78. Your enthusiasm and joy were a wonderful thing to witness. 🙂
    60
  79. I've said it before, I'll say it again. My Dad would have loved you. And he would have enjoyed a day like yours. He created a career for himself reparing and reconditioning commercial catering equipment. He had one representative, from a huge company, come and watch his work. At the end he told my Dad that he had nothing to teach him. Am so proud of MY Dad. Thank you for a great video.
    60
  80. As a Gen 1 Digital Nomad and long time fan of the channel, I highly support this initiative and content!
    59
  81. Whenever you show these enormous chimneys, I think about the people who built them, and how much courage it would take to do work like that, especially long before there were so many safety measures required. The chimneys aren't just monuments to the businesses that used them, they are monuments to the men who built them.
    59
  82. Your presentation style is infectious. The down to earth attitude. And I am with you on avoiding the big shopping malls. Manchester would have to be one of the better big cities in the UK. Such a history. And such a life force. Looking forward to the new series. It will be interesting to see people making a product in England. And competing with all the foreign imports. I think I am right in saying , that at the height of the British empire. The UK produced something like 60% of the world's goods. China has never even got close to this. Manufacturing. New inventions. Product development. Britain was where it was at. Also, interestingly as you mentioned exploitation. During the big industrial era. British workers were largely exploited. The working class usually bear the brunt so others can prosper. These days we look at the low paid workers in China. Different location. Same deal. Governments should back enterprising business. But they don't. There is a big thing in Australia about buying Aussie. Hard to do. Not much made here anymore. The norm is now to advertise. Proudly Australian company since 1922. But the small print says made in China. Or Taiwan. I have even seen packaging with Proudly Australian written on it. And they didn't even spell Australian correctly. Sign of the times.
    58
  83. RIP the second mic. Was a pleasure meeting and showing you around dude, glad you got to see the community we have in the cronx!
    58
  84. Your best episode so far in my insignificant opinion. What a subject, what a legend! He had an abundance of talents, steeplejack, demolition expert, mechanical engineer, talented draftsman and historian. He visited my local pub with his second wife and I was so impressed by his modesty, he was actually very shy! Hard to believe I know. I love it that someone from your generation values him, he was/is special. Thanks for doing this.
    57
  85. Vinyl has a rare magic today, the alchemy achievable only through attention. You perform the tea ceremony necessary leading to the drop of the stylus and then, goddamnit, you LISTEN. And actually listening to music is an entirely different and wholly superior experience compared to simply hearing it.
    56
  86. Awesome video dude, Well done. As Londoner who now lives in Sowerby Bridge that was a hard watch. I have spent many years in the west end of London working as a stand up comedian. I even ran a comedy club in Piccadilly. At that point there were absolutely no boarded up shops but I did witness a change in the type of businesses that operated there with a lot of the smaller quirkier businesses being forced out. London started to loses it's unique feel even then. But seeing all those shops closed like that is a shock. Once again, thanks for the video.
    55
  87. Bless Fred,he knew chimneys.
    55
  88. 24 bricks = an advent calendar for your dad! 🧱
    54
  89. When I saw the latest one was about Wigan I wasn't expecting much but I think this might be your best video yet. The heart of your own personal connection, the eloquent literary extracts and the grizzley truth of the past and present, they paint a picture with many colours. I think these sum up what I love about this channel.
    53
  90. This is such a great story. And I must give you credit for the real professional work you’ve done interviewing, filming and editing this. I’ve watched documentaries on Netflix and bbc that hasn’t been as good as this. Love from down the road in Rochdale.
    52
  91. It never died for the core music fans
    52
  92. Mate, that TV licence skit was hilarious! 🤣
    50
  93. Guy eating his sandwich was switched on. Seemed like a true music fan!
    49
  94. Wow, what an enjoyable watch this is. Definitely your best video yet in my opinion. Loved how you weaved your family history into the mining heritage of the places you visited (and the references from Orwell). Never been to Wigan but it looks like it is doing better than some of the neighbouring towns. Finding the grave of your 3x great grandfather too- he must have been a popular chap as that grave is in a lovely spot and quite ornate.
    49
  95. ONE LOVE GUYS THANK YOU FOR COMING TO CROYDON COME BACK TO SEE US
    49
  96. Hi from Paris Your reportage captures the poetry lying within industriel relics Nice Bravo

  97. There seems to be a widespread sense of dissatisfaction and gloom which characterizes the zeitgeist at the moment in the UK. Some commentators have noted that there appear to be so many problems the country needs to tackle, that it's difficult to prioritize what needs putting right first. This excellent vlog and it's passionate and caring host, emphasizes a starting point that we all should know already, but we often lose sight of: Mutual help and support within a local community. When you talk to people who lived through World War 2, they will often say that the collective sense of all of us pulling together was one of the positive aspects of life back then that we are now missing. Thank you David for doing your bit to remind us all that we are stronger when we act in unison, and that we can achieve amazing things if we put our minds to it. There is plenty of pressure from all quarters to divide and rule us, and keep us neutered, but by focusing on the traditional heart of our communities. we can claw back some control of our lives together.
    47
  98. So funny that you ended your curry journey getting a bit loose with your brother and ordering in a takeaway curry. I can't think of anything more British than that.
    47
  99. You'll probably get a more professional show.
    46
  100. So nice to see a community pub still around where everyone knows each other
    46
  101. Probably frittered the business away on the gee-gees looking at all those Racing Posts lol
    46
  102. The actual head Cutler. That’s so cool.
    46
  103. Great video, not just the eating part which was great but the well researched history. And the rude old woman with a face like a bag of spanners has been called out for everyone to see. Brilliant
    45
  104. 11:46 There's something quite disturbing about the "Merry Christmas" sign, tree, gifts and baubles just scattered and abandoned in a broken, empty building.. it feels very surreal.. 😶 Fascinating vlog, David.. I've been to Nottingham numerous times but wouldn't even have recognised it these days.. Great to see the big LP store and second-hand book shop! Something very unexpected!  Take the sponsorships.. you deserve to do well and when you get your house to renovate, it's going to be a BRILLIANT project which you can share with us! 😁👏
    44
  105. Really nice change from the death of the High Street. Love it when to see passionate people coming together creating something. Looking forward to the next episode.
    43
  106. “In every single job you’re striving to do better than you did last time.” That’s all you need to know about the quality of the workmanship you’re going to get. My dad would hammer that into me when teaching me to restore antique clocks and music boxes. His workmanship was perfection. What a great start for a new series. It’s great to see a craftsman who is passionate about his work.
    43
  107. “Aren’t Chimney’s BRILLIANT!!!” Sorry couldn’t resist. 😂 love it!
    43
  108. I think your the 2024 version of David Attinbourough for the changing culture of England. Bringing to light the growth and decline in these changing times. Keep doing what your doing I find it wildly entertaining.
    42
  109. I’ve been watching since day 1, always great stuff, but this one in particular has some moments of pure comedy gold 😅
    40
  110. R.I.P John ❤ Great video David, all the best to you for 2024 🖖
    39
  111. Never clicked on a video so quickly! Glad to see you got to come see Nottingham dude!
    38
  112. Mate do the sponsorships man, get your pay day. You deserve it.
    38
  113. this is the first piece of media I've seen actually explain what business rates are and how high they are. thank you. The problem makes a lot more sense to me now.
    38
  114. Damn! Nuts seeing you here. I would have loved to show you around. Lived in Bacup for 22 years and further down the valley for nearly as long. It's a pretty weird place, tell you that for free! You literally walked past my front door in this video!
    37
  115. Man Looks for Bricks is surprisingly compelling viewing!
    37
  116. Buzzing for the 'made in Britain series'
    37
  117. I would absolutely stay in Duncan's place, what an inspiring fella he is. I've been sat thinking about where else in the UK you could find property that cheap...didn't come up with any! Maybe Redcar, other northern coastal towns? Great episode David, thoroughly enjoyed it. 😊
    36
  118. Brilliant and where else in the world would you get so excited over bricks!!!!! Your a great ambassador for the North of England ...I wonder if there is anything that dates the bricks? you next task is to find the oldest one!!!!!!
    35
  119. You never ceased to amaze us with this incredible content, keep up the excellent work wandering turnips .
    35
  120. A fool and his money are soon parted. 🤣🤣🤣
    34
  121. Urban explorers have a motto: "Take nothing but photos, leave nothing but footprints" Well done!!
    34
  122. It was a robin
    34
  123. Raconteur, teller of tales, spinner of yarns. A lovely story again Mr Turnip, with a nice poetic ending 🤟
    34
  124. Never seen a YouTube sponsorship that made me want to buy a product so much! I know what I'm buying next payday ahahaha
    33
  125. He reminds me of the Paul Whitehouse character from the Fast Show, tiny cars arnt they great! Brilliant😂
    32
  126. PS Congratulations on the 100K! ;-)
    32
  127. In 1994 I paid £80 for 2 tickets to see Nirvana at the Brixton Academy...face value of the tickets was £27.50 each! I never got to see them as Kurt passed away about a week before the concert...very sad news RIP. I still have the tickets.
    31
  128. Thanks for this, a quality video of a city on the up. BTW, I was the Wearmouth miner on the right in the photo at the 14:47 mark. The lad on the left was a guy called Phil Mosey. Good to see my photo still doing the rounds!
    31
  129.  @wanderingturnip  Great video, David. Delighted to meet you at the Olde Trip. Rob's parents

  130. That London estate agent lingo: A compact bijou - pokey hole Does require a little tlc - it should be demolished Near transport links - the train runs past your window or the motorway runs through the house Centrally located - it’s a mile away and in zone 6 It’s deceptively spacious - it has nothing in it A lively area - a crime ridden infested dump that makes the worst bit of Moss Side look like Knutsford We’ve had back to back viewings all week - not so much as a nibble in a year That’s the 2nd bedroom - it’s a cupboard Interesting views - faces an ugly tower block Stay lucky, mate!

  131. The chimney with the wooden base made me smile from ear to ear

  132. Thanks for coming to my home village and showing all your viewers the plight of hemsby It’s been ongoing for years and is so sad Great video thank you
    30
  133. "Im not filming you, im filming boarded up shops" 😂 Great job my man.

  134. This is what Britain is about! There’s something special about the way that it’s something not (exactly) of British origin that we consider the national dish. It shows that deep down, we’re all better together 💪

  135. I just spotted the 100k subscribers, here. Congratulations!!!
    30
  136. Your videos are outstanding! You get it so totally right - perfect balance of first hand investigation, light hearted comments, genuine outrage, balance, smooth delivery, research, imagination when it comes to editing, and a love for our country. Worth repeating - outstanding!
    29
  137. This is your best film yet Dave! I’m crying with happiness mate. There is hope. We do have a future. Thank you so much. This is how we save our country and our way of life!🇬🇧😊❤
    29
  138. I'd love to see this appear on mainstream TV. Brilliant work to set the Wigan of today against Orwell's work.
    29
  139. I'm completely with you on the needless destruction of our communal history. Warts and all, it's the history we all share.
    29
  140. Mate ignore the naysayers you are class, and you are raising awareness to these issues while also taking us on tours around these interesting areas. Our household loves your vids. Keep up the good work mate
    28
  141. I've done this with my car too (VW Touran). I use it to stay in when I visit London. I don't have cooking equipment as I park on residential streets, so it would look a bit odd. Then for £30 a month I've got 24hr access to a chain of gyms all over the country that I can use for showers/toilet. The feeling of freedom is amazing
    28
  142. The most positive thing I've seen on the Internet in years!
    28
  143. Excellent video, I love your passion for these works of art. I lived in Northumberland for a long time, and Cornwall, both had a tradition of dry stone walls.
    28
  144. Quite a character, this lad. His channel here deserves to do well and I think he's easily bright enough, quirky enough and unashamedly honest enough about his romanticist perspectives on things to ensure it does. Best wishes for every success, Mr. Turnip!... right down to quoting Hughes poetry. What next? A visit to even more remote bits of the North West?
    28
  145. Snuff was used by miners to clear out the coal dust. Both of my Grandads worked in the mines in the Rotherham area and used it. One of my Grandads who was a heavy smoker used chewing tobacco as well. He had a dirty habit of spitting it into the coal fire. A lot of older miners had blue scars like tattoos because of the coal dust. You need to go and have a look at the National Mining Museum at Caphouse.
    28
  146. Keel Row shopping centre in Blyth, just north of Newcastle.
    28
  147. "Give life to space", great words, sums up how we turn around our dying high streets. As much as I love this channel, sometimes it can be sad to see town after town dying, but here its fantastic to see one trying to turn it around. Our politicians won't do it, we have to do it.
    28
  148. Wow, Vinyl Tap! I never knew they had moved to Huddersfield after they closed in Leeds. Great to know they are still going.
    27
  149. The estate agent disguise is brilliant. We need to see more of him 🤣 Cha cha darling.
    26
  150. Turnip! Myself and teen kids absolutely love your content 😊 I'm a Wiganer myself, and I've watched you now for ages and the history in your local footage is getting better and better! Keep it up! Very educational. Northerners are absolutely the best! Always there to help. Couldn't be more proud 😊❤
    26
  151. Fabulous! A Christmas treat for sure, heartwarming, real, British 🥰
    26
  152. Wow what a lovely positive video that is today. Love your down to earth outlook on things. Great to see Blackpool being invested in. Hate to see our seasides go downhill. Wherever you go you will always have mates your great👍
    26
  153. Always a good day when Wandering Turnip uploads a new video, and back in disguise!
    26
  154. I love this tour!!! It was both intriguing and hilarious❤😂 I love abandoned property and in general I find your "reports" very upbeat even describing sad situations, so yes, I disagree about the "worst estate agent" label. Great job🤗🌹🍁, and such a cool surprise from those guys!!! 🥰... Online communities can be really fab. Psychos and spoilsports can just be ignored. I'm just wondering how you managed not to get lost in that place, wowza!!! 😁👍💪p.s. them cows!!! ❤❤❤
    26
  155. This is easily my favourite video of yours, who knew finding bricks could be so exciting. Accrington is on my list to visit next week now!

  158. The staff at The Bardez, what truly lovely and accommodating people!
    25
  159. Bro ive never laughed harder over bricks mate

  160.  LotharFriedrichFreiherrvon  I own nothing now and Im as miserable as f*ck. Not sure where they get the "we will be happy" bit from 😂
    24
  161. This is what Britain is all about. We need to focus more on the positives. Thanks for the great video. I do not eat meat or dairy (I do not claim the vegan label) but I eat a lot of plant based curries. It's the best food.
    24
  162. This format with a local is great.
    24
  163. Agreed, wouldnt look our of place on the proper telly.
    23
  164. As a Wiganer, we’ve been watching you for some time now and each video gets better and better, this is fantastic. Please keep up the great work!
    23
  165. What a great artisan who keeps the craft alive. I wish him a long and successful career.
    23
  166. Excellent show, waiting for the next one. Just proving that I don't need a TV licence, because I don't want to watch the rubbish on BBC . 👍👍👍

  167. Accrington Stanley who are they
    22
  168. As a distance… very distant (USA) admirer of your channel, it’s an absolute pleasure to finally reach out to you. Love your channel because you genuinely find wonder in everything - a rare trait these days. I truly look forward to your content no matter the subject. If you’re continuing the “Made In England” series, can you present a feature on canals? It’s fascinating that you live near a canal and have not mentioned the importance of canals regarding mill, iron/steel and lumber transport to and from the plants. If the subject matter is of importance to you and other 100k subscribers (I personally think it is), it’ll great to learn the history regarding the planning, construction and craftsmanship required to enable water in the advancement industry and wealth.
    22
  169. All the best for 2024, WT!
    21
  170. What an absolutely wonderful video. All your videos are so well-made, insightful and absorbing, and this one is an absolute gem. I've lived in Sheffield for 26 years, and you've given it a fresh perspective; thank you so much! 😊
    21
  171. Yay! Turnip's back in Blackpool.. BRILLIANT! Loved the last vlog so it's great to see Duncan again.. Paused to grab popcorn and drinks 🍿🥂 😆and leave a quick comment..👍😁 Really enjoying this.. Congrats on the sponsor, David.. 👍
    21
  172. William Herschel was also a renowned composer, best known for his 24 symphonies. The Guy was multi talented
    21
  173. I live in Blackpool, and it was really nice that you were able to end this video on a note of optimism, as opposed to the negativity that's normally poured onto the place. Thanks for that. It's very much appreciated.
    21
  174. Not seen your content before, but great video mate. The UK has a huge problem with tax right now thanks to the Tories. Not only are they taxing businesses to death, they're also taxing regular working people at the highest effective tax rates in decades. Given we're in a cost of living crisis right now businesses have no chance given how much tax they're paying, and the fact no one has any money to spend anyway.
    21
  175. Another great video. Always admire the respect you pay to the local people, taking the time to listen to their stories 🙏🏻
    20
  176. Now I want to go and watch again (after 20+ years) The Full Monty. Specially that opening sequence. I can hear in my head that voice saying -A city...on the move!-. Great video. Big fan of this channel. Cheers!
    20
  177. Thanks for highlighting the issues of leasehold. One thing to note is that flat with a 9 year lease would actually cost even more than that to extend. The calculator asks for the property valuation based on if it had a long lease not the current short lease valuation. It's a painful process I'm currently going through with 80 years left expecting to pay between £10-£14k to extend
    20
  178. Great to see your beloved abandoned tiny house, David!! I LOVED the fact the guys left you a beer on the shelf.. 🍺😁 Cheers! Brilliant uplifting vlog.. fantastic drone footage (and I am glad the ole 'girl' is doing ok after her mishap flying through the window!) 😂
    20
  179. "lovely bit of bush!" 👏
    20
  180. Love your videos mate. Your ability to inject genuine enthusiasm into everything from chimneys to dry stone walls is infectious. This is a great tribute to John. He's left a lasting impression on the landscape, yourself and now everyone who watches this video. Bravo.
    19
  181. I love the small table, beautiful. The border collie is beautiful too .
    19
  182. Blackpool has had such a low reputation for a while now so one of its main struggles will be improving people's views of the town, but I think there's a lot of potentially the beautiful architecture and the beach really will help it as it hopefully becomes a much nicer place
    19
  183. Great tour by Phil! Good to see his enthusiasm for Sunderland.. It's always extra interesting to hear the history of these towns by a local.. brilliant job all round! R.I.P. Faye Fantarrow.. a beautiful young talent taken away too soon.. 😔🎶💚
    19
  184. Born and breed in West Yorkshire, and when I was younger, I didn't appreciate it. Now, when I get a chance, I'm out walking up in moors and around the beautiful dams we have. The views we have are stunning.
    19
  185. It might have been said already but loads of book shops, helped by Amazon being banned from selling books in France.
    19
  186. “Unknown help me” 😂, your love of chimneys and their “lovely bottoms” is infectious! You’re right they’re so beautiful. Behind bars sounds like you’ve spent some time in the slammer. Happy 100,000, it’s so well deserved! I look forward to all your future videos and your new channel, yeah love that! P.s poem was beautiful x
    19
  187. Bloke is just good vibes, here's to the next 100k
    19
  188. "look at the bottom on that" I've said that a few times but not looking at chimneys. 😂😂 keep up the good work pal
    19
  189. Your a great guy m8 and for you to open up is brilliant I'm 61 and feel that life is so bad thanks m8 carry on with your inspirational talent 🙏😊
    18
  190. Turnip property sales and lettings ..... Yes, I'm a real company, Yes, it does cost that much, I'm on a fantastic commission, I need to buy more XS suits. Class lad, keep em coming.
    18
  191. I know its not much and youtube will take a cut, but just wanted to say thank you for all these videos and the passion you have in what you do. This video was brilliant as always mate.
    18
  192. The Furance is a Grade 2 listed building and can never be knocked down. The gates at the front are locked and the key can be obtained from Kelham Island Museum to look around it. It is the last standing furnace of its kind in the country. It is supposed to be maintained but clearly hasn't been.
    18
  193. You sir… Are an inspiration ……..keep up your excellent work ( that’s both of you )
    18
  194. immigration is not the reason our country is falling apart... don't feed into the bigotry  @Sohave 
    18
  195. Ahhh the wandering Ferret ... Love your vids bro -- Nice conversion you made there.
    17
  196. I love your videos, mate, don't change 👌 We share them into our boys groups and it's nice to see someone talking about all this. Refreshing, instead of pretending this isn't happening in England.
    17
  197. This guy is a natural! I've no doubt he will appear on TV at some point, if that's what he wants to do. He gives us stories from many places, often like he's almost a local to those places. Love this guy/channel!
    17
  198. John was a very good friend of mine . I think he would be highly amused and bubbling over with enthusiasm for this vlog . He was great with kids ,and a fanatical communicator ,artist , waller ,activist . Condolences for your loss .@ luke❤
    17
  199. I luaghged my ass off. Love the pints being kncoked away - my word 10 pints
    17
  200. I am so pleased to see you so passionate about our wonderful history, it's what made this country such a wonderful place, not all of its good..but its history and it should not be destroyed.
    17
  201. "I don't want to get all philosophical about chimneys..." a sentence opener I never thought could exist. Genuinely, finding your channel has raised awareness of the realities of towns and streets, but also that there's more to chimneys than just bricks.
    17
  202. I hope this inspires other towns and cities to group fund buying pubs and reinventing and keeping them as pubs instead of letting them go to greedy developers. Seen too many pubs turn into housing when it's not needed as have too many high streets sitting empty that could be used as both housing and retail. Thank you David and the community who allowed Wandering Turnip and us to be part of it by sharing this initiative.
    16
  203. Maybe this isn't the video that John had imagined, but I bet he would be proud of this anyway.
    16
  204. A midweek RantWednesday and rant about anything. I would add that to my calendar. We all need cheering up mid week. I do so like your show it’s great.
    16
  205. To watch you wandering about the hills is like a breath of fresh air especially in the light of what's going on in this crazy world, keep up the good work Turnip.😊
    16
  206. Blackpool tower kicks it’s arse mate.
    16
  207. Fantastic! You are better than most presenters on TV. You have such compassion and energy and knowledge. I hope you dont get poached by BBC! Anyone but BBC! And now we know why you call yourself the wandering turnip! Very apt! I think, you are a credit to youtube. You can tell a story like no-one else i know! Congratulations Turnip!
    15
  208. This is absolutely class. Love all these videos but this latest turn to including fictional characters in them is great. You must be having a right laugh making these scenes!
    15
  209. My hubby and I love watching,your advert is fantastic,the funniest unique advertising we've ever seen.at first we both said hasn't he got a gf.then we realised 😂😂. We live in ilkley,even shops in ilkley are closed,and thankyou,we love watching were in our mid 50s so yes Fred dibnah we remember,brought back memories,
    15
  210. Pleasure to meet you and give you the insight! 🍻
    15
  211. Great having a curry, but not a Tikka Massala, much prefer a Jalfrezi
    15
  212. As a bairn, I used to get my hair cut at Johns, (my Dad worked at Joplings next door), although shut there, the business still operates, (in Sunniside, round the corner of the old Post Office). I've got a full house on my 'Turnip' bingo card as I have lived in places where you have done video's, (Stoke/Hanley, Huddersfield and London), so it was nice to see Sunderland now up here; I've used your (and others) video's as evidence to disprove people when they moan about the state of Sunderland. Yes, there are problems and it could be better, but it's got a better vibe to it and seems to be a good place to live and I think this video goes a long way to help prove this, (although summer time really helps sell this town, had you come here mid-winter...) Top video. Cheers.
    15
  213. Brilliant! I’m so glad you’ve finally made it to Liverpool! Until relatively recently Liverpool was the defacto economic powerhouse of the North of England until its post industrial decline after the war with a population only surpassed by Birmingham and London; I think the weight of its built environment really reflects this. It’s a city of contrasts and has a great weather of interesting architecture, both old and new and like you say, it’s setting on the mighty river Mersey is spectacular. Great to see the £1 house initiative seems to be working in parts of Liverpool, the Welsh streets in Toxteth I’m so glad have been turned around. Brilliant little vid that!
    14
  214. Loving all your video walks, nice warm voice, friendly and interesting
    14
  215. Great Video Wandering Turnip, you are not depressing, the TRUTH is depressing, love the way you go back in time and show what a building once was, watching from Alberta.
    14
  216. There are now 174 community owned pubs in the U.K and have very nearly a 100% success rate as businesses.

  217. Never seen this channel before, just randomly popped up today and I've gotta say, this is a really well done video mate, hats off.

  219. I normally like your videos, but after what you said about fashion, channel and why you do these videos, i absolutely love them and respect you❤
    14
  220. @wanderingturnip  yes, that was me. Ive travelled alot. Im from London, and lived in Germany and Canada, and have never found a town that has stolen my heart like Wigan. I love learning about the history, and spend alot of time wakking and cycling along the Leeds and Liverpool canal. The history along the canal is astonishing. Some spectacular old cotton mills, huge, massive chimneys. You should come back and explore some more. Buy yourself a pie, we are a town of pie eaters. Brilliant video ♥️
    14
  221. Well done to you for doing what you're doing, keep it up. This was exceptional, a great tribute to the builder John. Greetings from Germany.
    14
  222. Turnip is one of the least negative blokes doing this type of vid, he talks to anyone to get a picture of a place. There are those who asks the roughest people only and get the responses they want and expect. I avoid them totally.
    14
  223. Get in early! As soon as people start to realize they can get beachfront property for that cheap, boomtown!
    14
  224. Great work 👍
    14
  225. Fantastic! If I didn't love your content enough already, I most certainly do now. Beautiful work, matched by it's surroundings and Tom's soul. As someone who creates with timber in that thurr Yorkshire, I found this really inspirational. Thank you both!
    14
  226. Been a follower and a fan for a while would of loved to bump into you in the toon😊 keep up the good work bud
    14
  227. I genuinely look forward to your uploads as i know its gonna be another banger! Nice to see you do something closer to home

  228. Another great video. Thank you turnip 😊

  231. ​ @lordtyrus1 that's a daft thing to say. I have no love for our government and they could certainly be doing more to help, like dropping crippling VAT. But that doesn't mean that other factors don't contribute. Blame is one thing, and frankly that's a whole other discussion. I'm simply pointing out how it is. And it's not just the price of one thing that has caused our price rises. It's many.
    13
  232. Thank you for a great video. My forebears, like yours, were miners - mine from Yorkshire. My great grandad was badly injured in a pit accident in the early 20th century and couldn't work again. His resourceful wife then worked as a private nurse to support the family. They were remarkable people.
    13
  233. Class. The way you look into these traditional industries and your enthusiasm for our country is something else mate
    13
  234. You wanna be careful of that chimney you built, The council might have it flagged for demolishion in the morning. 🤭
    13
  235. . . . just such a beautiful tribute to wallers, walls, and where they are found. Very well delivered vlog. Top class content.
    13
  236. Congratulations on the 1st episode really enjoyed it 👍 ❤
    13
  237. Mate, you’re turning into a real legend! Big things coming for you and your channel. Thanks so much for the hard work you put into your content, it’s top notch and couldn’t be more relevant in 2024.
    13
  238. I used to work in Eldon Gardens when it first opened and it was never busy xx

  239. Not only can you call it work, but this just proves you dont have to exploit people or yourself to make great video content that pays. Happy to see creators like this making money! Congrats🎉
    13
  240. What a great job your guest made of showing the other side of Nottingham, great places and hard working people 👍
    13
  241. I can't get enough of these videos, I come back every time because I like your take on it all and your positive attitude. Thanks again. If you ever needed a theme tune for your videos, I'd be more than happy to create a piece of music for you!
    12
  242. ❤So lovely, the old man speaking about his memories...
    12
  243. Wow, probably your best video that I have seen. It is always interesting how you bring light to the different areas of the UK, and now to throw a curve ball and show us the love of a community was amazing. They invited a good man down to their pub, because they know you are honest and not disparaging about the UK, a proud citizen that helps others shine as well.
    12
  244. Best episode imo so far.. especially enjoyed your more deeper thought about "success" at the end. Or what we perceive of as success. Loved it mate.
    12
  245. I absolutely adore this video. Turnip property sales and lettings - what a masterpiece. Huge like
    12
  246. Actually amazing to see 1 man and his camera creating a historical an informative video. Just as good as any major tv production.
    12
  247. As for the BBC licence the perfect analogy is us having to pay Sainsbury's an annual fee to be able to shop at any other supermarket chain. Ridiculous.
    12
  248. Another wonderful video! You're taking me places I'll probably never be able to visit in my lifetime.
    12
  249.  @wanderingturnip  if you haven’t seen it wait till you see the film that’s been entered into film festivals (picking up traction and wins I believe) it’s an absolute peach of a film.
    12
  250. Absolutely love your videos mate keep them up. 👍

  251. The home of dubstep! I went there on my first visit to london as i am deeply involved in the music that came from this place and everyone i told that i was going there thought i was insane... Everyone i met there was nice, the public transit was great and its a pretty area, but i did hear it can be a bit rough

  252. Newcastle was once one of the most fortified city's in europe due to all the battles the city had protecting England from Scotland
    12
  253. I know it is easy to fall into, but so many people talk about the town they live in or know well and look back at all the things that have gone as society has shifted and many old things have died out - so it's always great to hear people like this, looking to the positives and how relatively small building blocks have the potential to help in writing new chapters in a town's history, whilst still celebrating some of the great moments from it's past 👍🏻
    12
  254. When I clicked to watch this video I definitely wasn’t expecting this 😂 the sarcasm and omg the cows!! Love it. I really enjoy watching your videos

  258. Your videos are such a great insight man, really appreciate you making these!

  260. This makes me sad, personally I love Nottingham My uncle who’s always been like a dad to me moved there when I was 2, so around 2005. Every year since I have visited him up in Notts and it’s my favourite place. Around the outskirts of the city there are so many nature reserves, parks and fields of wild life. I always do my yearly wardrobe top up shop when I visit as even though there are many closed shops, there are lots of options compared to many places near me in the West Midlands. There are a lot of artsy unique shops and exhibits around which you can definitely make a trip out of. I do think Nottingham would be in trouble if there wasn’t a high volume of uni students. I read online there is around 50,000 students per year. Great video like always. Showed my grandad your channel, he now watches regularly :)
    11
  261. Nah, he's a decent YouTuber who keeps an open mind. I've been watching his channel grow since his 'chimney' video. He's a good un

  263. I can imagine that being your girlfriend would be pretty entertaining. Wake up in an empty bed.. text on your phone says.. "I went to get us coffee and croissants" 5 mins later .." I saw a cool building and now I'm 500 miles into the moorlands and I've started a new life and have a pet cow , love you" 🤣

  266. "The road to Wigan pier" great book Turnip! I loved the way Orwell described the tripe, and how his bread and butter had a greasy thumbprint on it, black with coal dust from building the fire. Never forgot that. Great video! You're getting better and better! 👏 👏 👏

  267. This was excellent mate - got me all emotional at the grave.

  273. Hey David,felt compelled to comment on this vlog, like the death of the high street episodes & the cheapest places to buy in.... But you have excelled yourself with made in Britain, so nice to see a craftsman who obviously takes pleasure in making quality furniture the time and effort is shown by how lovely the end product is.keep up the good work, hopefully it will get more work for people like tom if people share these vlogs 👍💜

  274. Great content again mate. Doesn’t say a lot about main stream tv when a lad with a camera phone is making better content than they could ever do!
    10
  275. As an add on if you haven’t already, could you do a vid on the house in the middle of the motorway(I think it might be M62?) The ones that refused to sell up and now surrounded by motorway… Think it would be especially interesting for international viewers 👌

  276. Sorry, I’m gonna have to double post. Those cows were so beautiful, all of them asking politely for food. Such good girls.

  277. Giving a visitors perspective and then a second with a local works, because not everyone visits somewhere with someone who knows everything so first impressions count. But coming back with a local gives a second side to the report, love this. Keep this coming

  278. Welcome to Liverpool! I love it here. It feels very positive and as though we're progressing.

  279. Absolutely love this it’s cheered me up no end! Pubs are the backbone of England so it’s wonderful to see a community come together like this.

  280. You make such good videos mate, more interesting and real than what mainstream media make, well done. 👍👍

  281. Grandma from Canada here. This video makes me want to move to that village and be in community with them all😊

  282. Thanks for following my suggestion from a few months ago. After watching your video it's actually worse than I thought. That huge 6,000 sq ft empty shop used to be Farmfoods, even they've disappeared 😢 If you'd headed a bit further south out of town you'd haven been in chimney heaven. I used to work at the place with the first chimney were you couldn't access it, it was a family run textiles mill called Bates and Co. Great video 👍
    9
  283. Always like how you correct yourself if you make an innocent error and in turn help learn yourself and viewers. Cheap as chips! Didn't realise how even such a core food as Fish & Chips was so dependent on the global supply chain until the Russian invasion and the local chippy letting us know how much of a challenge it was just to maintain supply. Seems utterly bonkers when we have so much capacity to fish and grow spuds that we would ever be reliant on imports to put this staple on our table 😢

  284. Watching at 7am on a Sunday morning and my mouth's watering for some fish, chips and mushy peas!! 😆 Lots of funny moments, I loved this episode.. 👏

  285. hahahaha tcha tcha |

  286. David, your video tours get better and better. Loved the lines from Orwell's book which you brought to life. Thanks.

  287. Probably your best video so far. I enjoyed every second of it. Thank you for your great work. Beautiful tribute btw

  288. I stopped watching tv 2 years ago. And now i watch YouTube. Although i can't find too much on YouTube that interests me anymore. I had a tv licence goon knock on my door today. ( The same day as this video.

  289. A big thank you ti the legend who left the brick

  290. For me that's your best video yet. It was like an extra Christmas present - thank you!

  291. Started following you via the original stone wall videos Please do a few more of your early type videos they are brilliant. New stuff is great too but chick a few random walks in and general musing
    9
  292. Refreshingly different channel. Very interesting guy. I love these videos. This guy should be on TV 😊

  293. This is a great series and getting better each episode, well done showing us the history and reality of a bygone era in the UK.

  298. It would be interesting to know who owns these properties. It is very sad indeed the properties are abandoned.
    9
  299. Not only are you a perfectly fine estate agent you're also a great YouTuber! I love watching your videos from here across the Atlantic in Chicago. I love England and would relocate there in a second if I could pull it off and not end up in one of those £500,000 hovels you've shown us! While London is probably well out of my range I'm curious about places like Torquay or beautiful, historic Avebury...

  300. Wonderful. Perhaps you’re best vid yet!? Laughed so hard in places. And with a bonus Ted ❤️

  301. Never thought a company like this still exists in England, good for the local economy and people. Nice to see.

  303. Hi, i have been subscribed to you for a long time. I have never made a comment but i have watched all your videos and i had to now. I love all the architecture there lovely place 😊

  304. Great little camper, but i am also pissing myself at the massive fire, it reminded me of operation good guys when Duncan said 'there is something about a fire that makes you feel safe' and i just imagined his legs going up in flames and him shouting 'put it out, put it out' 🤣

  305. There was nothing wrong with wrapping Fish and Chips in Newspaper. Now we have plastic packaging and pointless greaseproof plastic paper. The world's gone mad.
    8
  306. @danielschlo3479  I guess that's why so many new chippies are opening up?🥴 What you are saying makes no sense. Are you a fan of terryology? Or maybe a politician?

  307. 103K subscribers! 🥂🥳 Big congrats, Mr Turnip!

  308. I honestly sat down to eat my fish and chips and Youtube suggested this video. perfect.

  309. Apparently The Empire State Building used Accrington Bricks in it's foundation. Awesome

  310. Excellent rant!! Couldn't agree more.

  311. It's sad that what sounds like it was a thriving British export business based in a post-industrial town selling smoothie bikes around the world stopped selling abroad completely because of Brexit.

  312. Good to see another side of Blackpool. I kept all the ads running. Hope you can buy one of these run down places to do up in the end!
    8
  313. Really appreciated the pre apology for any future sponsorship/ advertisements. As an expat, this video is blowing me away. Lived up North and on the Southern coast and to see the high streets empty is shocking. Brill channel, immediately subbed ✌🏻
    8
  314. Absolutely brilliant video Wandering Turnip!I really would like to wish Tom success for the future, obviously very skilled man and so nice to have appreciation for the skills and qualities of the past.❤👍

  315. im from bolton. at school when choosing subjects in year 9 for GCSE i wasnt allowed to do wood work bcoz it was for the B band and i was in the A band. i eneded up going to college doing art and design (which i got straight A*'s in in every year at secondary school. year on i did graphic design in Bristol. Did my degree, then moved to forest of Dean, started labouring as a job to keep the money in, eneded up collected as much scrap wood as possible. 3 years in ive been making picture frames and planters from it all. made sooooo many and sold so many. my attitude is the same. local as much as possible n not throwing any small scraps out at all. i now live in scotland Aberdeenshire and have a garage now so im full on!!
    8
  316. Another great video, turnip. Some of those houses should skip the sale and be knocked down. They have to be hazardous, surely? The sponsor ad for Level 8 suitcases is one of the funniest I’ve seen from any creator. Really inventive. It definitely made me chuckle.
    8
  317. It was great to meet you at the pub!
    8
  318. ​ @wanderingturnip yes you do, sorry. The connection might need to be made clearer though, as currently it seems like you're saying these are the rates business have to pay. Mind you, 50% of that is no small change either. Off topic, where is that you were walking at the end? It looks amazing!
    8
  319. Watched a few of your videos on town centres and found them really interesting. To be honest, I never really thought much about dry stone walls, but your enthusiasm is infectious
    8
  320. Well, in Turnip's defense, chimneys might be easier to understand sometimes....fewer complications.😜
    8
  321. Finally, a positive video about Bradford. Thanks for sharing.

  322. Cracking revisit of the city I've called home for 15 years. That guy Rob did a top job of showing you around and explaining some of the city's history.

  323. I was well into Nirvana at the time and I was absolutely gutted. I was glued to the tv for news about Kurts health as he had been taken ill whilst in Italy. Devastating and a tragic end to an amazing artist and band. Good to hear you are also a fan! I seen Slayer in 2015 when they came to my home town....awesome gig and tickets only £45 !! Great video Mr T as always...
    7
  324. Great video. Keep up the great work.

  325. the gym membership hack is outstanding. Going to use that.

  326. Thanks
    7
  327. 👍👏 Very interesting to learn about Huddersfield's history and see the town with the scary reputation.. "The Shambles" made me think of York.. I always loved that lane full of quirky buildings and shops.. Wonder how it's doing now.. 🤔 You had me there for a sec about the sponsor.. 😂🍏 I was about to congratulate you! Goes without saying, I would choose "Turnip Productions" over mainstream TV any time! This channel's going places.. especially when you find a chimney you can touch!! 🤗
    7
  328. "I felt the final destination of this meal was in fact Instagram, and not my belly" - 16:43 What an amazing quote! I love Fish and Chips - already asked the missus if we could grab some this weekend after finishing this video
    7
  329. Loved the disguise! There was an obvious lack of hair gel and coke, though!
    7
  330. It's thanks to independently produced channels like this that we no longer need mainstream TV.. This type of content is simply THE BEST OF THE BEST!  Your enthusiasm is notably GENUINE, and highly contagious, David and your hard work is MUCH appreciated! You will soon get that YT silver plaque, but you deserve so, oh soooooo much more! You're going places, me lad!👍👏 Edit: Maybe I get a bit carried away with my comments 😂 but I mean every word and, hey.. positive comments can only help a channel and I've been following for a good while now and enjoyed watching Wandering Turnip grow.. into a huge Turnip 😂👍
    7
  331. That was very well done. You never know, there's a chance that, that penny might have passed through your Great Great Great Grandfather's hands at some point.
    7
  332. I completely ditched terrestrial TV about 5 years ago. I was tired of bias news, the woke agenda, reality tv, celebrity worship, the same old presenters on everything and the complete lack of imagination from TV executives. The variety of things I watch on Youtube is nuts: news, current affairs, true crime, live performances from my favourite artists, discovering new/old music, comedy clips (love the Alan Partridge cut), people restoring/building stuff, combat sports, urban explorers etc etc. My TV is just used for Youtube, Netflix and gaming now. I don't miss terrestrial TV one little bit.
    7
  333.  @wanderingturnip  what about the pub where they let you stay,they were very friendly
    7
  334. Best YouTube video I’ve seen all year David. You had me and the missus engaged from start to finish. Great energy, hope you get enough Nori’s to make a MASSIVE chimney! 👍

  335. That rainbow is a message man.
    7
  336. What a heartwarming and fitting tribute to John Mounsey.. I've enjoyed all your dry stone wall vlogs, but this one had me shedding a tear! Beautifully compiled.. Listening to John's words was very touching.. You certainly had a lot in common with him, David.. a love of poetry included.. and how poetic is that breathtaking drone footage across the Cumbrian landscape.. 🤗 Even though you never managed to make a video together, you did John proud with this one.. 👏
    7
  337. To John, genuinely great walls
    7
  338. Loved this! What a good channel!

  342. Dude.... this video is great. Better than I expected (don't live in the UK but the sentiment transfers well anywhere....and helps I love woodworking!) 👏👏👏
    7
  343. You know it's bad when Greggs has shut down!!!!
    7
  344. Lol yes, your content might be 'boring' but it does document an incredible period of history. I'm not even British and your ancestors went to war with mine, but fuck me you guys did a number on technology and we should all be grateful. Rule Britannia and keep making these videos dude.
    7
  345.  @wanderingturnip  Thank you I will.

  346. 61-64 The Strand used to be TOP SHOP - part of Sir Philip Green’s Arcadia Group. We all know what happened there… don’t we!

  347. I remember seeing you in Les Miserables in the west end in 2016! 😮😮😮
    7
  348. I love your videos mate. You're doing good work. Keep it up
    7
  349.  @laciepyu255  The ability to lack the understanding of why something is important doesn't make it less so, it is people like you who should learn why structures like these are important instead of tearing them down to make way for soulless buildings that offer no real value to a communities identity.
    7
  350. As always lad , another great episode 👏 keep up the good work .
    7
  351. You should have hyped the third house as "our mystery house." Your broker babble was very funny. The cows were a nice feature. Did you have to pay them? :o)
    7
  352. because you went back I subbed
    7
  353. Loving the new series . 👌 great to see these amazing small businesses ❤
    7
  354. Loved that video David, so kind of the family to give you full access too
    7
  355. Small to medium manufacturing businesses are the absolute backbone of the british economy. You should have no problem filling your channel with them for years to come. They need to be be publicised more. We waste too much time talking about big ticket stuff and overlook the bread and butter businesses.
    7
  356. I had a place with black mold due to a change in sewage..anyway I never fully recovered from black mold in my nose recent years have been so much better in my far better flat...rember to wear a mask in these properties I love watching your channel
    6
  357. Come to Aberdeen Scotland. Lots of interesting economic stuff goes on here with the rise and fall of the oil and gas industry. Currently everything is switching to fossil fuels so there's a huge change. Plenty of older gents would talk to you about that. :)

  362. Recommend window deflectors! They will covertly allow you to leave the windows open a crack to help with airflow and condensation. Plus they stop rain.

  363. Fast Show voice…. ITS BRILLIANT!!!!!
    6
  364. The quality of this video is up there with, even exceeding anything on the mainstream media.
    6
  365.  @wanderingturnip It would be impossible to see the entire england and visit every town and the only way is your vidoes for millions of people so thank you very very much....
    6
  366. You're a natural at this, with informative and engaging content presented in a way that is really enjoyable to watch. Nice One.
    6
  367. Awesome video, mate and really does show the current state of our economy. When you hear how much a block of fat has gone up, the price of potatoes and even the poly trays... business rates, etc. Just demonstrates why folk aren't buying this great British tradition anymore. Cost of living is affecting our high streets big time! You've just gained another subscriber through your unbiased findings.. Well played, chap.
    6
  368. The taste is hilarious! 8:11
    6
  369. Hilarious! The just-a-bit-too-small suit had me laughing so hard I snorted (never do I snort! lol). When I clicked on this video, I did not expect a comedy routine before the tour. However, when the roof caved in near you, it quickly because a lot less funny.
    6
  370.  @wanderingturnip  Love this book narrative idea - top bloke.

  371. Amazing video mate. Love Orwell, lived in Barcelona and worked in Wigan for a while too and his influence was still significant in both places.
    6
  372. Wow thats fantasic that you found that grave . Mining was such a demanding job . I dont know how these guys did the job . One of your best streams mate . Many thanks 👍👍👍Respect to all of the guys that lost there lives working so hard .

  373. ​@wanderingturnip it's good stuff mate
    6
  374. Affordable housing that no one can afford! Love it!!!
    6
  375. I agree. I volunteer in a charity shop in Northumberland. We are currently snowed under with binbags full of the dubious “bargains” people were suckered into buying last year! NOTHING undermines your faith in human common sense like a couple of years in the back room of a popular charity shop!
    6
  376. I made it my mission last Friday to not buy a single thing.

  377. Cracking tribute to a true working class Hero.. well done😎👍
    6
  378. A superb episode, I knew you'd be covering Fred at some point. Like him, I feel out of place in this modern world, if he was still alive, he'd hate what's happening to our industrial heritage. They broke the mould when they made you David! Such a lovely model chimney, it made me feel quite tearful!

  383. Loved the video, I'll be emailing Tom in the morning about getting some of those ace bottle openers. Make a great gift for my brother's birthday.
    6
  384. ​ @wanderingturnip It was brilliant! 👏 🇬🇧
    6
  385. Price is definitely just for the land, the building isn't worth anything.
    6
  386. The royal family are also landowners in a lot of town centres so I suspect that a large proportion of business rates goes to them.
    6
  387. Wonderful video, I'd like to add my two cents as a Londoner and as someone who's in the corporate law space. It's actually been incredibly depressing and remarkable how much the London property market has fallen in quality, value and investment. It's common knowledge amongst London law firms that property investment here is at record lows, investors are more cautious in investing in UK businesses/properties because of major uncertainties (combination of economic effects of Brexit, Covid handling but also the constantly changing leadership - just think the switch from Boris, Truss and Sunak in the blink of an eye) and London's status as the "financial centre of Europe" has been claimed by Paris, given that the UK is immensely struggling behind its G7 counterparts in fostering economic growth. And from a purely renter side as an individual, all of my friends/colleagues complain about how much of a nightmare it is to move in London now - no caps on rents, failing infastructure, disappearing local culture. We're long overdue for an economic reform. Perhaps even a rehaul.
    6
  388. I love the sudden contrast when you went "I'm in the North now" and you're casually walking in the middle of a beautiful piece of scenery, much prefered over a place like London haha
    6
  389. Forget the negative comments .. keep on going 🙂
    6
  390.  @christinerobin386  he prefers them round, or with an ornate bottom. Chimneys that is.
    6
  391. Like everyone else, I'm really pleased to see your return to Nottingham to give it a second look with a local - and more than that, you and Rob touch on the "why" things have closed. It's all very well pointing out that things have shut down and emptied (which is important) but highlighting the 'reasons' so we can push the local authorities and landlords towards taking action is, I believe, one of the next steps towards getting our town centres back.
    6
  392. I’m loving this series, so wholesome and heart warming. You can tell you make people feel really at ease in your presence, great interview x
    6
  393. Howdy!
    6
  394. Loved your vid mate. Shared to the Skyscraper City Liverpool Metro Area forum online - pop in some time. We discuss urban regeneration and all the developments in our city. Your brain and passion will be welcomed!!
    5
  395. 9:39 I think the ceiling of that partially burned down house was even worse! You know, the one that had a ripped water supply that was still running? Apparently it happens frequently that the boiler gets stolen when a property is left empty for some time, because of the high value of scrapmetal nowadays.
    5
  396. 3D mould is just next level 😄. Btw i love when you describe the conditions and features of the houses you view, you have a way with words and convey your feelings towards it really good.
    5
  397. The auld fella was bang on about Ticketmaster at 07:21 when he says this: “They’re bandits. They may as well wear masks.” I thought the suited young man eating his sandwich from 13:24 had a good perspective about the value of art and artists.

  401. impressive, that thing is tiny. I have one as well

  402. This video was wicked to see. Well done David 👍👍 Great seeing u with you're big smile with the joy of the activity of this pub 🍻🙂🍻🙂😊

  403. Imagine; you're in the pub and Messi walks in and then he claims he's a wandering turnip.
    5
  404. I have never ever smiled through a nearly half an hour youtube video before. What a gem! Thank you so much for making these! Also, the first video that genouinely made me miss the country and it made me realise that the only thing I miss is the little wonders of true community I got to witness being there.
    5
  405. They circuit all the big record fairs all over the country. Always doing great trade as well.

  406. Fab video as always 😊 Damn you lad 😂 having watched you over the past year or so you've got me addicted to and researching chimneys

  407. Think the trousers could have been a bit tighter...🤔, and the shoes a bit more pointed....🤔, but otherwise fantastic episode 😂👌.

  408. 29:38 Curried goat 🇯🇲 Welcome!!!! 😙👌

  409. This video was very moving, how you linked your family history into the decline or should I say the total death of mining and it's impact on not just Wigan but much of the North. It was also interesting using passages from the book which much of it seemed to ring true to today's Wigan and many other towns. I come a steelworking family which obviusly relied on coal mining for fuel. One side of my family is from around North Lincolnshire, the other side are from Cumbria and left the steel works in Workington to go and work in Scunthorpe. I know live in Shefffield so I can't escape steel. Similarly to coal mining many of my family ended up with health issues caused by the job, had work related injuries and I know one of my Great, Great Grandfathers died in an accident at work.
    5
  410. you're a great enthusiastic presenter. I really enjoy your videos and channel!
    5
  411. A wonderful, documentary like production, learned so very much today. You, Sir are brilliant!
    5
  412. Hahahahaha Dave! Me and our lass sat here laughing our asses off at your enthusiasm for bricks haha. They're worth a bob or 2, I bought a load from a reclamation yard in Milnrow to build my fireplace, sure it was like 50p a brick or a quid or something.
    5
  413. This was class. Love how you built the world’s worst and most pointless chimney but it made you so happy hahah
    5
  414. Everything is just so brilliantly unhinged!

  415. what an adventure!

  423. The burn out area was the Bus Station which happened last year, alleged to have been an arson attack which saw a parked up bus go up in flames which spread to the building. Think the case is still ongoing.
    5
  424. Turnip you are a traveller and you seem like a man who can handle himself, I was wondering... Could you give a man a lethal blow, even if he was coming at you reaaallly hard?

  425. The street next to lidl had lots of windows smashed not long ago that was the street that you said streets alright. Drug dealers own the nice cars

  426. I found your channel last night and binged on your exploration and commentary. I find you and your content incredibly fascinating. Wow! I live in Charleston, SC here in the US. There are parallels of your content and the gentrification of our city is experiencing. Looking forward to more! Cheers!

  433. 4:10 So the council want the castle gone and the land to look like it's never been touched. Except all the land around has the look of being touched by human hands. It's called farming. The council are stupid to say that it should look natural. What is natural? Overgrown with plants that mean people can't visit. Or neat man made paths cutting through controlled and managed nature. A stone building in such an environment will look very inkeeping and natural because it's constructed of natural materials.

  435. Glad you are getting sponsors, you deserve it and the suitcases look nice - but why oh why didn't you show us the inside? I was waiting but you never opened one 🙈

  438.  @wanderingturnip  maybe watched it on x16 speed, it is a great video so far😂

  439. Great to see it's not all doom and gloom, and all hope is not lost.

  440. The channel 4 series on the £1 houses was good. The original ones were in Wavertree though, not where you were on Wynnstay St. the scheme was difficult for the owners as they couldn’t get insurance as they didn’t actually own the property until the council had signed off the completed renovation so a lot were being robbed while renovations were taking place.

  441. "Dynamic Pricing" what a great idea ! Maybe we should use Dynamic Pricing for Fire Engines, and Ambulance also ?  House on fire ? The Firies turn up and park outside. Is it just a small fire on the kitchen cooker, maybe the resident and a couple of neighbours might have been able to put it out with a wet towel and a small consumer fire extinguisher... The Firies might only charge you 20 quid for that.  But is the whole front of the house engulfed in flames leaping 2 storeys high, yeah mate that'll be 350 quid, or we'll just leave it to burn and go elsewhere.   Ambulance too. Dynamic Pricing "how injured are you and how much pain are you in ? At risk of dying soon ? Maybe you want to pay extra for our Premium Express service ?" 'Dynamic Pricing' is just a fancy name for SCALPING pure and simple.

  442. This is an excellent documentary on this madness. Thanks for taking the time to put it together in such an informative and entertaining way. I love you little films on decline in town centres, and this adds a significant strong to your bow for sure. We; done.

  443. There's a dry ski slope in Stoke-on-Trent too!another interesting video :) x

  444. Bingo hall has been empty 30+yrs - actually has a beautiful old facade under that horrid white tiles. You missed Elgin street! (Sort of at one point the shortest street in the world) which is near the old market hall which has been closed a very very long time.
    4
  445. Black Belt Barrister has a few videos answering your filming in public concerns, worth a watch.
    4
  446. Yeah that's what she said....wait what? Nevermind
    4
  447. I would comment on how awesome this is from the community to pull together to get the pub going again, but everyone else has said that in much better words than I could. Instead, I want to say I really hope you realise what a great job you're doing with this channel. You have a true skill for documentary filmmaking - both knowing how to present places, and knowing how to engage with the people you meet and ask the right questions! The clear genuine interest you have for the art you're creating really comes across in the videos 😄.
    4
  448. Everyone deserves a decent pint , considering the cost these days . Keep your lines clean ,keep good beer. Dont put knives and forks on everytable . Forgot the word Gastro. Lots of beer towles on the bar keep it a wet pub for the community 😊😊😊

  451. Fabulous video. I live in Australia, found this via a friend on Twitter. I wish all involved the very best. Good luck with the brewery. I now follow you, Wandering Turnip. ❤
    4
  452. I think this is your best video, mate. Like a lot of people here are saying, there’s a lot to be bummed out about in the UK - like everywhere - and plenty of content out there focusing on that (which naturally gets more views and is almost self-fulfilling). This kind of content’s a real antidote to that and is a pleasure to watch. Also I bloody love Norfolk & Suffolk, the people are just the best there.
    4
  453. It's been a pub for 200 years. It'll be a pub long after we're gone. The White Horse has been open and trading again for 2 years now (making a profit) and has huge support from residents, patrons and the community. There are circa 174 community pubs around the country with 100% success rate. As a venue and community space, it's only getting busier.
    4
  454. That was the best video I've watched in 2024. Well done, Turnip.
    4
  455. I'm very proud to be from Suffolk, and this enterprise warms my heart so much because it represents everything I believe to be dear to treating people in our community with love and respect. Money should always be secondary to home! Thank you for this great video, as I didn't know about the pub, but now I will visit.
    4
  456. Really interesting video, well done. I found those ventilation chimneys at the end the most interesting

  457. Cool that your Nan watches your videos, my parents alone wouldn't know how to find one of mine unless I set them up on a browser with the page loaded.

  462. I've lived in Wigan all my life (age 72) well done young man on a great video about Wigan, Coal Mining and your Great Great Great Grandfather. I don't watch much Main Stream TV anymore, i get more enjoyment from independent Channels like yours keep up the good work.
    4
  463. Excellent video paying tribute to these bygone and brave miners, that worked for the industry that shaped our modern world. Sadly, thanks to the government interference, led by then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher; favoured the destruction of this noble breed and the coal industry. The objective was to weaken the trade unions – that Thatcher described as the ‘enemy within’, and which she regarded as a barrier to ‘national recovery’. Her view was that the economic crises of the 1970s could only be overcome and profits revived by reducing the ability of unions to prevent pay cuts and defend the public sector. The real legacy of the pit closure programme in the UK is not so much the greener valleys (an accidental by product) but the decades long combination of unemployment, under-employment, ill health, increased crime and drug use and lack of hope.

  464. Caught your last video soaking up Manchester You mentioned Saint Eric The Road To \Wigan A most devastating account of Class Horrendousness And now here you are in Wigan I love your Passion young Man Stay Awesome PS Wigan Pier in the late 70's and early 80's had the best   Northern Soul Shuffle Dance Scene ever

  466. Accy bricks,a nightmare even for top bricklayers. The building lad you talked to was correct.Nori is Iron backwards. If you could lay them you could lay owt. The Burnley bricklayers were experts but the Blackburn lads couldn't lay straight in bed.

  467. I'm a brick fan 😊. If anyone has a brick marked MDR, Malton Driffield Railway, I'd be interested in buying it. What a wonderful video, really made me smile 😊.

  468. Im in pure admiration and happiness for your enthusiasm for bricks

  469. Good on you mate!! I've been with you throughout this new venture. Hope it continues to be successful. I did mention it before but, Thornton in Bradford should be extremely interesting. @wanderingturnip

  470. Loved the video and looking forward to seeing more on your channel. I lived on Baltimore Marina in Todmorden for a few years so seeing the Calder valley brings back some good memories.
    4
  471. Thanks!
    4
  472. I think this is your best video so far! What made it so good was the research you put in before doing your walk. I watched spell bound. The people you interviewed added a lot of interest, and gave the urban landscape a friendly human touch. I do hope you will produce many more videos of this high quality.

  473. Carry on doing what you are doing brother

  488. Wow! What a brilliant start to a series. I`ve watched and thoroughly enjoyed every single one of your videos but I stopped commenting because I looked like a gushing girl groupie, when I`m actually old enough to be your grandma. 😂🤣😂This however is a big step up, even for you and I have to comment. Can`t wait to see some more. Wishing you the very best as always.

  493. Thanks David. Your face lit up like a wee lad on Christmas morning when you saw that chimney. I actually have a fear of chimneys, Slough has been dying for years and now I see that it is actually dead! Of course it's not alone as every High St is in decline to some degree. Take a look at Swindon sometime, I think that it's even worse than Slough!
    4
  494. When you seen the chimney, it was giving me flashbacks of the guy saying, "Have you got a budgie? i love budgies 😂

  511. i used to love exploring dad houses on te moors. in the late 80s me and my mate waged offschool and hung out in onr. we calved stuff from heavy metal albums on the wall. aweek later itwas in all the papers including daily mail that there was a satanic coven meeting on saddleworth moor. geofrey dickens mp got on it in parliment and kids in rochdale were taken into care. it went mad.
    4
  512. Absolutely hilarious. Best video I have seen on You Tube by far. I follow your channel and you do a great job on highlighting the good and the bad of every video you put out. But this one should win a prize. Absolutely brilliant banter. So much so you got all the cows enjoying you being there. I hope you got them to subscribe. LOL.

  527. Very interesting. It is good to see a positive video, we need some of these in these challenging times
    4
  528. It’s good to see your YouTube channel supports British manufacturing. When we look at our decimated towns outside London we need to reshore manufacturing from China and elsewhere to rebuild our damaged economy. Bearing in mind manufacturing is a win win situation because it helps build local communities and infrastructure and instills pride. As I remember from my childhood, that fateful moment when the Matchbox factory in Hackney Marshes closed down and became derelict after it was taken over by Mattel. That being said, innovation must always be at the heart of british manufacturing, so British manufacturers can keep up with foreign competitors and stay ahead. But for that to happen we need a strong government that supports British innovation and British manufacturing. 🇬🇧

  539. The worst thing about modern Britain when you look at all the incredible quality buildings and products that Britain used to make, all the skilled tradesmen have evaporated and not passed on their skills to the present generation.

  547. Speaking of train tickets to London. I took my wife last week and the cheapest return tickets were £286 not including the tube. So we drove down to Luton and back at a cost of £12,parked all day £9 and two return tickets with use of the tube all day in all areas £52. Bit of a difference compared to £286

  560. I know you probably won't see this because of the sheer amount of comments on here, but wanted to say I love your videos and the messages you get out through them. Because of this video. I went to my local chippy for the first time since I moved house (several years at this point) and I didn't regret it. Large haddock, chips and large curry sauce for £8, absolute steal when you compare it to other takeaways. Buy local and support your community wherever possible

  561. Loving the videos mate, top quality as usual💯

  562. Great video. You're spot on.

  563. When I was a kid in the north east of England we paid about a shilling for fish and chips and yes, they were wrapped in newspaper. Salt and vinegar and scraps if desired. That was in 1959

    3
  571. Your videos made me realize how corporations have truly decimated this country, the government bangs on about people needing to work and they have closed everything down, lahghable.

  578. You're wise beyond You're years. Fabulous content as usual.
    3
  579. As others have said.. this is QUALITY STORY TELLING! I had taken my time to watch this one, (not knowing Wigan well) yet it was packed full of so much more interesting history than I could ever have imagined.. and incorporating George Orwell was a class act! I am lost for words.. so poignant.. maybe your best video to date! 👍🙏👏👏
    3
  580. This was so much more than Wigan! This was a fantastic insight into the coal mining industry.. the strife and the hardships, depicted admirably with old footage.. and to top it all, you went to your great, great, great grandfather's grave.. Stephen Burnip was a victim of those hard times and this was a fine tribute to him and others like him who suffered an untimely demise.. Well done, David for these thought-provoking and brilliantly produced videos. The drone footage made it especially memorable.. thank you! 🙏👏

  581. Wow. My favourite video. Love finding the insight into your own family history mixed with Orwell and the history!! Subscriber!!

  582. I’m hooked on these , thank you excellent presentation

  583. Loved the part when you shared the important message from Gary, the tv licence officer enforcement. May be you should dress like that when visit properties, to see the reaction

  593. An idea of what would happen when people are gone, nature takes it back. I do love a good mooch about these abandoned places. Sadly people will take it back off nature again sometime and build houses or something. Pity these places can't be left alone forever for nature.

  597. Great video, I didn’t know the Cragg Vale one, but I’ve probably passed it and am so used to seeing them I didn’t notice it. The mill fire in town happened this summer, it was really sad as it was a lovely building used by artists and other small businesses. Hopefully it will be rebuilt, my house overlooks it and I can see the chimney every day. There is also a square chimney near the scrapyard one. It’s the other side of the main road, up a passage way between the houses. Cuckoo Steps I think.

  602. Just returned to this video as it was the first thing I thought about when reading an article on a welding method that has been developed in Sheffield. The Master Cutler was certainly right in saying that anyone who thought the engineering sector in Sheffield is not dead! The Times, 12 February 2024, 'Welding method drastically cuts time to make mini nuclear reactors': "One of Britain’s oldest steelmakers has developed a manufacturing technique that it claims could drastically reduce the time and cost to produce mini nuclear power stations, which have been proposed as one way to bridge the nation’s energy gap. "Sheffield Forgemasters has become the first to use the so-called electron beam welding method to produce one of the core parts of a small modular reactor (SMR) at scale. [...] Electron beam welding works by firing electrons at an extremely high speed to join two pieces of metal together. The main difference to traditional welding methods is that no third-party material is introduced to make the join. Using traditional techniques, the welding process alone can take at least 120 to 150 days. This new method can reduce the time to about two hours, according to Jesus Talamantes-Silva, director of research at Sheffield Forgemasters, drastically accelerating the manufacturing of SMRs. “That’s how disruptive this technology is,” he said." There's more information in the article so I highly recommend you having a read through it if you're interested. Should accessing it be a problem, let me know and I can share the full thing with you. It's brilliant to see these sorts of breakthroughs that support the optimism shared in this video and from Sheffield folk alike! Cheers.

  608. Grwat video so far. just paused to make a comment on something before I get distracted by another part of your video. I live in the north east, Born here but moved away as a child only to return later in life. I think the point about the sense of community being dead is whats really wrong in the world and i know you mentioned it a couple of times. I've just received two letters from the constituant politician for county Durham with regards to my email addressing exactly this issue. What I proposed was have a legislation change with regards to housing developments and so far he seems to agree and has since put me in contact with the team at the local council planning team to go into more detail with them. But what i proposed was based on seeing new houses popping up on greenbelt land when we have so much derelict brownbelt and wastland that could be easily developed and will already have supplied there. I also made a point to him about them always having plots along side these development areas and one in particular i saw they fenced off what would eventually be a bit of greenery but currently has digusting looking soil with a few spindle-like trees poking out. these are at the end of each row of maybe 4-5 properties in this development and could have been used to create a community garden for the locals. somthing to bring them together and have the elders teach the youth and so on. There is obviously a lot more we can do to bring back community, like markets etc, the one near myself was destroyed because they opened the river bank back up, which i understand was to help with reducing floods but they didn't do anything to help what was once a wider community hub, thousands of people would travel from across the region to come here or that, that would in turn bring people to the high street here which is in a massive decline. Anyway that's my contribution so far. Love the videos and have been enjoying them for quite some time, even got some of my friends and family into your stuff and they all love you too. keep up the good work.

  628. Thank you for this video. I was worried about the title, but because I've seen your videos, I thought I'd chance it and I'm glad I watched. I hope the lesson people got was to be careful about the agenda news organisations and individuals have when reporting on a certain area. When a certain issue is sensationalised and focused on, that area gets associated with just that issue. What people saw in this video is (a) Londoners are friendly (b) the same issues affecting local areas and working class people across the UK also exist in London (c) there is more to Croydon and London than is reported on. This is why it's important not to listen to those who don't live in London or have an agenda to paint it a certain way. Croydon is huge but it's 1 borough out of 32 that make up London - the city is massive, it's diverse, at times a hard (and expensive) place to live, but a great place to live. You seemed to have approached people with a friendly and understanding vibe and that's probably why people wanted to chat to you. Well done.

  633. Your content is so interesting and educational thank you! You would never get to see any of this on mainstream media! Tokyo seems to be one of the few cities in the world left still with a strong thriving retail sector. However, the same fate will come here in the next 20 years! You don't see homelessness or boarded-up shops, People take PRIDE in their jobs. I spoke to one small business barrister and she travels over 1hr 30 mins for her job, ( Which she could get a similar job more local ) I asked her why and she says she loves this coffee shop and is a privilege to work there. If you compare that to a UK barrister, say Neros or costa coffee, or even a small business, it is just a part-time/ full time JOB, paid minimum wage, No love or care or passion or pride , its DO the bare minimum and get paid and leave. That is what I have found to be different with Japan cities vs UK cities , would be good for you to do something on Japan , there are deaths of towns outside of Tokyo , which is a shame but would make interesting content for your viewers Im sure!

  634. Lovely interesting video brilliant indeed

  635. Usually it takes several things to get a place like that moving. Medium to large employer opening up jobs. An improving economy, buying a place like that requires hope and a sense of security. Government intervention- free or $10,000 with available financing, maybe tax incentives. In 1997, Washington DC offered $20,000 income tax credit that carried over up to 5 yrs. The city government also froze real estate taxes for 5 years, after that real estate taxes went up with a cap of a few percentage points, I think 2%-3% maximum. There were also incentives for efficient heating and ac replacement, new roof, etc. if the house was considered historic preservation they were even more incentives. It worked. The program brought back people after suffering tens of thousands fleeing the city every year.

  636.  @wanderingturnip  hey bro, spotted your video uploaded online think it was tod chat? Your mrs put it up. I’ve watched the full video, I’m originally from Burnley but now living in Todmorden. The building where you mentioned must of been demolished and then they gave up. This used to be a major second hand store which was massive and made a lot of money back in the day, three years ago it was set fire to and now sits as is. I was brought up on the street behind from 3 yrs and left when I was 17. That area was something else back then and now it’s a complete mess, nothing will ever change unfortunately. The guy you was speaking to who mentioned 10 years ago all those houses were boarded up, that’s not correct. They have always been that way, constantly behind lives in and wrecked by rental tenants and rouge landlords. The first are where you was, that was the place to be for socialising in pubs and restaurants around 10 to 15 years ago. Again, it’s now a dumping ground. Sad really, I loved your video by the way.

  642. Totally different subject and I was just listening to the podcast you were on in the car this morning and people giving you some locations. I know you love chimneys so how about our India Mill chimney in Darwen? Its took inspiration from the tower in Venice! It has history with Fred Dibnah too and I know the Americans love watching the video showing him climbing it! Just a thought and we also have a few empty shops!

  648.  @michaelphillips2079  Nah, it’s just bigotry. People aren’t one amorphous blob. I’ve never met two people who are the same, so banging on about “immigrants” or Muslims just shows bigotry or at very least a very basic level of thinking. The problems the UK faces are largely a failure to modernise and accept a different role in the world.

  649. I’ve mentioned before about my rates in Birstall West Yorkshire, i had basically a small workshop storage unit and my rent was 5 grand a year, so my rates should have been around 2 grand but oh no i was made to pay much more than that cause Kirklees council said the rateable value on this would be based on a rent of 10 grand a year, I’m no longer in premises and working from home, glad I’m approaching retirement but i do feel for people trying to become self employed in the future…keep up the good work mate, Robbo 👍👍👍

  651. Hi David. This is the first video of yours I've seen and I really enjoyed the content. As a Londoner now living in the Netherlands I do find it very sad to see the economic fabric of the capital erode so quickly. We have problems here in NL but nowhere near the levels found in UK cities. I look forward to seeing more of your excellent work. The scenes you showed from up North were beautiful. I wouldn't bother visiting London again if I were you. I also found your energy level to be so captivating to draw the viewer into your story.

  673. I knew Bradford & the surrounding area well in the late nineties, Shipley, Bingley, etc. Cottingley & Chellow Dene are worth visitig too. The BEST place to visit is Saltaire. Now you're famous please don't start going to luxury hotels around the world, like some others have. Keep it real. I do think Pboro is worth a visit still...

  674. Wikipedia has a page called "List of Mills in Bradford" that includes map coordinates. If you can find them on Google Earth you can probably ID them. They are also listed on the National Building Register.

  676. All those people who think you pointing out the empty buildings is negative need to learn that pretending a problem doesn't exist is no way to solve it. Listening to the shop owners who are hanging on you hear a familiar theme about what makes it difficult for them to stay in business. If government doesn't heed this, there will be more empty buildings and a bigger problem that can't be solved by pretending it doesn't exist.

  678. I don't think you was too far off the mark I was in town a few weeks ago and was shocked at how empty the victoria market was, so many closed stalls . The centre has a good night life because of the Students but we have lost so many big shops and all of the big employers such as Players, Raleigh cycles, royal ordnance factory.

  679. Nottingham has seen justice after this video. Concise and comprehensive summary of Nottingham. Well done Rob for making people aware that Nottingham still has a lot going for it.

  680. What? Nottingham is one of the few cities where different ethnicities and groups have got on decently since the 60s. It's in our blood here mate. None of this is new to us. Furthermore the reason for boarded up shops and malls - ACROSS THE WESTERN WORLD - is the rise of the internet. Train your braincell a bit better
    3
  681. Have you thought of coming to somewhere like Oxford which has areas which are some of the richest in the UK, but has others that are totally deprived? There is something like a 10 year difference in life expectancy between neighbouring parts of Oxford, and you can see it in the shops which are open in those areas. If you are ever interested in coming I'd be happy to show you around :)

  703. One of your best - we need more of this kind of accessible journalism, exposing the greed and exploitation in our cynical society. I don't suppose the brothers have come out and said that they will refund the difference between the original ticket prices and the ripped-off ones - no, didn't think so. My last big gig was Pink Floyd at the infamous Earls Court "tour" - the seating collapse was, I think, on the Wednesday, and me and my daughter went on the Friday. Great gig and we got our tickets and a stay at a top hotel, near to the Post Office Tower, for less than £150 for both of us (the next morning we went for an early walk in Hyde Park, once we had got our hearing back, and rescued a squirrel in a rubbish bin - its illegal now but was OK back then). The big downer was that it was in the middle of the period when the morons in the audience stood up and waved their lighters during the performance. And now we get them all waving mobile phones - as a suggestion, just get a bit of software on your phone where you can superimpose yourself on an audience image you have downloaded to "prove" you were there, download and play the gig for free, settle back with a takeaway and save yourself hundreds of pounds. I know the whole point of a live gig is the experience, but what kind of experience is it to spend hundreds of pounds to join in with a synchronised iPhone waving event ?

The railway is the East Lancs Railway, runs between Rawtenstall and Heywood, via Bury. 24:16 in the background is the old police station, now converted into living accommodation. There's a disused ski slope in Sheffield, loads of plans for it but it is completely overgrown.

  713. I enjoy watching your videos but I have noticed by the people around you in the street looking at you, you do tend to shout a lot lol maybe you need to be a bit more discreet but seriously love you love your channel maybe quiet yourself down a bit so as not to make those around you suspicious you're not belittling the towns you visit you're just showing life as it is and me personally I enjoy your Videos.

  727. I do the same but I have a Skoda Superb Estate with limo tints. Kitchen is in the front passenger footwell. Proper covert. I can sleep anywhere and no one knows.

  728. Remember to not sleep on public roads if pissed.

  729. I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with that but thinking it's not going to be that great climbing out of it in the middle of the night to take a leak after 8 pints of Stella 🤣
    2
  730. This is genius and also very inspiring, I'ma copy you!
    2
  731. The many smiles on everyone’s face tells the story of community and local pride. This video is fantastic!

  733. https://youtu.be/aj6qyT0XEZI?si=Abmu6t3B4Kgo1clC. Thanks to Wandering Turnip messaging my husband about which camera he uses, we’ve now bought the same, and this is my first attempt with it today …1st May 2024 in Heptonstall (above Hebden Bridge where Wandering Turnip is from). As I struggle with depression, I thought this will be a great help to encourage me out n about, I filmed with an iPad until this today 🤪 Thanks David aka Wandering Turnip from our favourite village 🌈✝️❤️😇🌻🦋🌷🌹🐝🐨🦙🦉🐞🌲🐨🐣🐥

  734.  @wanderingturnip  The Fox and Goose just celebrated 10 yrs.

  735. I love your positive energy and good vibes ❤

  736. My eyes are tearing up. this is so cool, more community, more friendliness, more local culture, people buying things together so it doesnt just vanish into the black hole of financial greed
    2
  737. Remember that’s what happened to the Puzzle Hall Inn in Sowerby Bridge. Maybe you could have a word with them too.
    2
  738. Interesting fact... Copper wire was invented by a Scotsman and a Yorkshire man fighting over a penny 😂.
    2
  739. Quite simply one of the best documentaries I have seen in ages. The pacing, content, authenticity and editing are superb. You are to be commended.... well done
    2
  740. Great community
    2
  741. Brilliant…i think there is a call for this in small communities..note nobody looking at a phone screen 👍👏👏

  742. Excellent vid. Great edit. Glad you lost the flip !!

  745. Thanks

  746. You've inspired me to buy a book of Byron Poetry.
    2
  747. Your videos have the happy knack of making me wish I was there but when that butty came out I was actually jealous mate.This is way better than television.
    2
  748. Canadian here ; Dude, watch some Joe Robinet videos for camping and bushcraft tips and advice. A lounger? you didnt even bring work gloves!

  749. Drink when he says chimney. See you in the ER
    2
  750. Please do a run on Bradford, content for weeks there 😢
    2
  751. An excellent video but I too watch you on my TV. As regards parking, that’s why I tend to avoid town centres these days and so shop on line more and more. Oh yes and work from home as well.
    2
  752. WT - best opening you have ever done . You just keep getting better . Hession
    2
  753. Haha..then you found out!
    2
  754. I used your QR code, thanks!! X

  755. One of the saddest introductions ever. Seeing the housing and hearing what William the Conqueror said...so sad, yet fabulously portrayed on camera. @WanderingTurnip great job.
    2
  756. Also, the Transpennine Route Upgrade is supposed to improve communications with Manchester and Leeds!

  757. To also subscribe from a smart TV select channel, from there you can subscribe or go to channel. This is what I do, I have a Samsung smart TV.
    2
  758. I do have to say you have inspired me to start my own youtube channel. Something very different topic and rather funny hopefully haha; recording the progress of my partner's learning how to drive hahaha. You do nothing fancy with your videos (not meant as an insult) but you're very charismatic and interesting! I always look forward to the new video! :)
    2
  759. Get yourself down to great Grimsby, £3 for fish, chips and mushy peas , Mathews Chippy, Stanley Street.
    2
  760. As a random viewer from a country half a continent away I really enjoyed the video and will remember to visit a fish and chips shop the next time I am in the UK.
    2
  761. Agreed.
    2
  762. ​ @wanderingturnip there's sound it's just the audio isn't that good when the bloke first starts talking - had to put my volume all the way to the top. This is from my phone (no earphones)
    2
  763. Just found your channel mate, what an absolute gem of a video. Just subscribed and I look forward to going over all of your old content.
    2
  764. Don’t usually comment on videos but I stumbled upon this and I just have to say , this video is a work of art. Brilliant in so many ways. Your style is authentic and charming. I’m gonna subscribe
    2
  765. Cracking vid, please keep up the excellent work.
    2
  766. u cud be the british morgan spurlock if you keep this up. Super size me(England)
    2
  767. 4.90 is an absolute steal for that!
    2
  768. I made my own and my bf said it was the best he'd had. Soak the chips in water for half hour and triple cook them. Use fizzy water or beer in your batter - its a quick ish meal to make and tastes so good. I'm replicating chicken jalfrezi next.
    2
  769. LOL all these armchair commenters, anyone in the industry knows everything has doubled in price since Ukraine, we haven't put our prices up simply because we are a partnership with no staff, we have reduced our opening times on only 4.5 hours a day coz gas prices are still extortionate.
    2
  770. I rarely give videos a thumbs up though this is an exception 👍
    2
  771. Im a Pole and I love fish and chips. For me the best fish and chips shop in Derby is run by an Indian guy.😊
    2
  772. £17.50 for that???! Geez.
    2
  773. Great item as usual 😊
    2
  774. Mushy peas
    2
  775. Was that a can of Ben Shaws dandelion and burdock with fish and chips❤nothing better❤
    2
  776. What an absolute gem of documentary. Bureaucrats should be forced to try running a business for 3 months before creating new rules they can monitor upon to have a job. Less is more.
    2
  777. really important , down to earth , documentary about real things that affect everyone on limited means. Thanks W T . Great Job.
    2
  778. Hi Dave great video. Just like to say that because you like poetry you should check out a monologue by an artist called Arthur Berry called The Chip. Arthur is Stoke on Trents very own Lowry. If you can't find it maybe I could play it to you over the phone
    2
  779. Your enthusiasm in this video and the content you made won you a subscriber - I felt engaged and pulled in until the very end. Normally I would watch half of a video this long about something probably more contextually deep - Not to suggest this wasnt deep - I look forward to your future uploads happy northern man xx
    2
  780. That German guy was so alive in their mannerisms <3
    2
  781. It did.
    2
  782. Mushy peas do taste hilarious.
    2
  783. didn't expect to enjoy this video so much. thank you! who needs iPlayer when the best docs are on YouTube :D
    2
  784. They still wrap in newspaper where I live, they just use the greaseproof paper for the first layers
    2
  785. This is a brilliant video full of passion!! Yes I'm old enough to remember when fish 'n chips were served in newspaper, it was better in my opinion as the food could breathe properly. Today its put in plastic trays which are sometimes stuck into plastic bags so by the time you have got the meal home, its turned to mush.
    2
  786. Hilarious 😅..This character is spot on..Hope to see more From Turnip property and lettings estate agent
    2
  787. Brilliant. You are SO funny ! Dare you to be a priest, next time.

  788. Tagline: Why not Turnip and make an offer

  792. Do you think it's the same matrix in every city now? In 60 years, it has become a post industrialized wasteland. shops closing and everything done online. They might roll out a 3-day working week in the future. It's just rich and poor, there is not in between anymore. they want us indoors watching the escape box (T. V) or the one-eyed nanny. No one cares.
    2
  793. Good journalism here Wandering Turnip, following in the footsteps of George Orwell! Like you, that author burned rubber (now plastic) soles to tell it how it was. We need people doing that now, just as they needed it back then in the 20s and 30s. Keep it up.
    2
  794.  @wanderingturnip  it’s mainly the title. I came here from the Manchester Reddit page where this is a topic of conversation. I really like your channel. I think from where Manchester used to be despite its current problems, it’s come on leaps and bounds especially around ancoats/deansgate/granada areas. But there is still work to do especially around the Piccadilly train station/gardens area.
    2
  795. To pay $2000 for jeans, especially those, is decadent and sick.
    2
  796. Congrats the 70k subs fella, I live in Ripponden and watched your channel grow and grow from the start.. Loving the content as always.
    2
  797. Literally painting Warhammer models while watching this lol. Guess they really are doing something right.
    2
  798. Secondhand clothes shops and a market like in Camden in London with music, culture, cheap food that's good like cabbage, mash , dumplings and pies like in London pie and mash shops where people can eat basic , healthy food rather than Macdonald's unhealthy rubbish could be great. I go to charity shops for clothes and if the vintage clothing and decent coats, jackets , shirts, trousers of quality would sell well especially after being washed and second hand tools, hardware would sell I'm sure. Many people want good stuff rather than pound shop quality and a polish, clean up can put much value on stuff and also good secondhand furniture made of solid wood and metal could sell. Big shops can be shared amongst a few small businesses. Shoe menders, tailors, snack cafes without loads of red tape and good clothes shops, hardware . Curried goat is a great idea and even vegetarian Asian and African food as well as Eastern European food is going well. I go to polish shop for smoked polish sausage , pierogi or stuffed dumpling and good dark German bread for example that's natural and healthy especially evenings. Sauerkraut potato and meat , dumplings, just a cheap basic few meals can do really well as can instant coffee and tea for £1 or so as Starbucks etc isn't very affordable even for average families with kids when housing, cars etc are costing so much. It needs a rethink and advertising but offer good value and it will attract people anyway.
    2
  799. The Made in Britain series sounds excellent. I wonder if there will be a mix of small and larger companies. For instance, the footwear industry in the UK is solid, with brands such as Goral (out of Sheffield), Crown (out of Northampton) and so forth making great products.

  800. The death spiral of capitalism. The snake eats its tail.

  801. So well made & researched. Hats off to you. Love your content 😊
    2
  802. Did you ever used to watch the Fastshow?
    2
  803. Thanks
    2
  804. Looking forward to Made in Britain - cracking idea, there's a lot more than you might think. Good luck with that.
    2
  805. Get in touch with a lad called Scottie, based in Fleetwood, his brand is Northern Tide which is a clothing brand, top lad and I’m sure he’d be open for a chat 👍, great episode and content again, keep it all up pal
    2
  806. So many famous band... Oásis.
    2
  807. The Men’s Dining Hall, as you may have spotted, is now a roller rink! 😄 I think there’s a couple of other businesses in the old mill buildings. Would be great to have been able to see these buildings in their original condition. I didn’t know there was a mining museum, maybe I’ll visit one day 😊 Thank you for including your personal connection, too.
    2
  808. Fantastic video, loving your content it gets better and better. Your enthusiasm is infectious.
    2
  809. It's not "three-pence", it's "thruppence"
    2
  810. This video will stay in my memory. It a wonderful piece of work. The narrative, your research is admirable. Thank you. I tip my hat to you Sir.
    2
  811. This is without doubt, terrestrial TV quality and the irony is, David would'nt even need a camera crew or producer. Thank God YouTube has given rise to these professionally presented channels and content. I wish you every success to 100k subscribers and beyond, mark my words the old TV order of the BBC etc will be history in maybe another 10/15yrs?
    2
  812. The connection to the past and present , delivered in a respectful manner towards the old ways. A pint of bitter your only man after a hard days graft. Thanks WT for your videos.
    2
  813. Very nice tribute to your Great, great, great Grandfather. Lots of Pits in this area and sadly lots of brave Pitmen lost their lives working in such horrendous conditions. I live in a village called Rowlands Gill, if you look on a map you will see it is only 4 miles from Medomsley and I know the area well. PS, new subscriber here, I enjoy your video's, I've learned a lot watching them. 🙂
    2
  814. What a great video. I love Orwell and old pre-decimal pennies (bizarrely 😂). Great tribute to your great, great, great grandfather at the end.
    2
  815. Well, that was a very moving video 😳. I think it’s very important to remember your ancestors. Great job.
    2
  816.  @wanderingturnip  It's called the Guardian (sculpture) it's on wikipedia
    2
  817. Love your program mate, very detailed. Your family roots & finding your great great grandfather head stone, in the 70s & 80s Wigan was one of the top places for northern soul, nice one governor 🤙
    2
  818. Bless you, I could tell you were speaking from the heart by the grave. Your presentations are excellent, broadcast-quality with depth and interest. Love the urbex themes in some of your videos, something I have loved and practiced for years I am a child of the early 70s and you remind me a lot of a chap called John Noakes who presented the BBC children's program Blue Peter. Happy New You to you, Rob.
    2
  819. Your best work yet. Splendid.
    2
  820. Excellent upload Mr. Turnip. I share your passion for the dark satanic mills and for George Orwell. Like how you juxtaposed them in this video. Jumble hole is a favourite haunt of mine. Greetings from a Tod lad.
    2
  821.  @wanderingturnip also just to add, documenting the world around us as it stands today is the coolest thing ever mate. Not enough people appreciate what we have, what we’ve lost and what lays in store for the future. You’ve created a really entertaining and informative channel mate, all the best for the future buddy 👍
    2
  822. Wow!! what an incredible film !! we loved it!! Liked and Subbed ,Max Wirral ,Merseyside zozozo😎
    2
  823.  @wanderingturnip  yes. I was there 18 months and learned so much. I was only 22/23 at the time, Was an amazing newsroom to work in, with some amazing people. You're totally right, that environment doesn't really exist anymore sadly. I am pleased to see you're doing so well on here. You're better than most presenters I’ve seen on mainstream TV. I am sure you'll hit 100k subs soon!
    2
  824. Absolute class. Not often I find almost incidental Orwell references on YT. Good stuff, mate 👏👏
    2
  825. Thanks
    2
  826. Your videos just keep getting better.
    2
  827. Such a Great Video.
    2
  828. The drone footage was illuminating. Good narrative here and your family connection to the place, all the more worth telling
    2
  829. A fairly reasonable video, Visiting Wigan and no mention of Pies, Photos of former Wigan Rugby-league players on the wall of the entrance to the shopping centre, I believe, Not my Rugby-league team But good to see. Just bought a copy of The Road to Wigan Pier. Straight after watching your video. Originally read it at 16 years old, Will understand more of it with more ",Life experience ".
    2
  830. I had never heard of that book before. I love the narration. I’m definitely going to read it now.
    2
  831. Wonderful presentation. You are good at this. But ones closer to home have that added connection. That you can feel in your words. Can't recall ever going to Wigan. I would imagine when George visited. It would have been a tough life for many. Today I live in Australia. One of the biggest exporters of coal in the world. A lot going to China. One of the biggest manufacturers in the world. As you say. Coal still a driving force. The difference now is the extraction. Australia's mining is mostly open cut. Highly mechanised. The workers, some of the best paid manual workers in Australia. Fly in fly out. Weeks on, weeks off. Big money. Australia is also one of the biggest for Lithium. Similar. Big money. Guys fly in from all over to earn the big dollars. Iron ore is another. Plus gas. In other places around the world, as you say. This may not be the case. Africa, comes to mind. But nowhere near the hardships of your forefathers to extract the black gold. In most places. They were tough men.

  839. Great viddeo, thank you ! Just finished 1984 absolutely amazing readd, excited to pick up some more Orwell books !

  840. History being taught by someone who is as passionate as you, is so so interesting.

  841. Traveling isn't cheap ..hope this helps.

  843. I really enjoyed this video with lots of history. Well done.
    2
  844. What a wonderfully crafted video, very emotional also 👏🙂
    2
  845. One of the best videos I've seen recently. Thanks for your amazing work. Great to hear all the references from Orwell. Congrats.
    2
  846. I am dying with laughter at Gary! I used to read the Diary of Adrian Mole and used to laugh so much at the license officers used to creep round houses looking for peoples teles! lololol
    2
  847. Dan aka English Woodsman is a brilliant guy!
    2
  848. It just cliked what you remind me of (in a good way)... AIN'T MILK BRILLANT!

  849. Well thankyou mate 👍 👏

  851.  @wanderingturnip  He's just an honest man doing an honest job stopping dishonest people.

  852. Loved this video so interesting. I really like the videos where you research and explore a concept, like the fish and chip video.
    2
  853. That Gary piece was quality. I haven't paid tv license for over 10 years and they won't ever get a penny more from me
    2
  854. I think he's being facetious. He's paraphrasing Hilda Ogden from Coronation Street. She once described a woman as having "Having a bust you could stand a telly on." She had a mural, I think, of the Royal family in her front room which she misnamed as " A Muriel."
    2
  855. My maiden name is Barrow, i should do my family🏡 great vlog ty for sharing 🎉
    2
  856. A town quality should be judged by its people. This town has some nicest people in the UK. I was there from a work appointment. The hotel I stayed in was modest, but the staff were so professional, even though you knew that they were on basic pay. I caught a taxi to a restaurant and the taxi driver offered to wait on him. I felt guilty and treated him for the meal I had. That Dave in the video exemplified the nature of these people. These people deserve better than what the governments have given them.
    2
  857. You just really made me laugh, seeing you trying to carry that pile of old bricks while filming! Cheers for that, mate. I needed that! 😂
    2
  858. Ladies and Gentleman - this is peak turnip.

  859. watching from adelaide. loving your work.
    2
  860. Youre a mad one !!! but i love the enthusiasm in all your vids, maybe you should build a little piza oven with them, and its something usefull. . Nice one, Congrats xx Also loved your content about people who no longer watch terrestrial tv anu more. Im 62 now, and i dont watch tv like i used to its so bloomin boring, at least with you tube, and Meta shorts and vids and streaming you can watch what you want when you want ! xx M
    2
  861. Had to tell my Mrs I was watching porn. Seemed less embarrassing than admitting I was gripped by a bloke looking round Accrington for bricks 😂 Love the channel.
    2
  862. Thanks

  863. Yes make video of what ever you want , what we do
    2
  864. John sent the rainbow - it had a beginning and and end - just as his walls did. Well done, brilliant.
    2
  865. Absolutely ace mate, watched all your content, for me Swaledale has it all reference walls etc, more stuff like this please and don’t forget the Hoffmann kiln which is absolutely ace if you get there early doors, take care mate, Robbo. 👍
    2
  866. Hi, I dont usually comment on videos, however I've been watching your channel since the start and it's been great watching it evolve. You come across so well no matter what your commenting on and I really enjoy your content. I've been scrolling through the channel looking for something to watch and it appears this is the only video I've missed. Keep up the good work mate.
    2
  867. Had to watch again as it was such a moving video.. thank you!
    2
  868. have done it for a living ,and it’s the most rewarding ,and best job in the world
    2
  869. Great video. I'm a dry stone waller based in the Shetland Islands. It's a wonderful job to do, even in typical Shetland weather. Those walls are really epic 😳
    2
  870. What a beautiful tribute to what sounds like a beautiful man who spent his life building beautiful walls. The appearance of the rainbow was just beautiful. This is what life is about, appreciating the small things and always looking for the positives. Thank you
    2
  871. Where do they get the stones from Do they find them in the land

  872. Only looks slightly worse than some of the residential properties you've viewed going to auction 😂

  873. Wonderful I’ve watched so many of your videos. I don’t leave this house now so watching these is so fulfilling. Love your down to earth attitude. I bought u a coffee 👍🥰

Was near the home that you shown next to the river, there was workers in side there and looks like it was sold, im glad that someone has taken the risk to buy it, and hope its get sorted soon, i love the area, after living in Hebden Bridge for about a year, (i was raised in Halifax) lol. just love the valley in all. Great job has well dude. keep it up
    2
  886. It’s hard to imagine driving over from Manchester for the nightlife, but that’s exactly what we did. Or, going over on a Saturday for the shopping - it must have been the early 70s.
    2
  887. Great insight into Sheffield. Loving the content 👌
    2
  888. Very enjoyable watch and looking forward to your Made in Britain series.
    2
  889. Nah, mate, not irony at all. I literally did get through the whole vid with no interruptions, and that's on YouTube standard. The only ad was at the beginning.
    2
  890. Love the T Shirts! Another great video, pal
    2
  891. Spent a lot of time in Sheffield. Have family there and daughter went to Sheffield Hallam. Brilliant video again. 👏👏👏

  892. Liking your videos
    2
  893. Another great video and very poignant with the news this week of the shutting of the steel works in Port Talbot
    2
  894. My relatives from Yorkshire had ornaments made of Pewter. I think this is what Turnip is talking about at 12.31
    2
  895. Thanks
    2
  896. Brilliant work, perhaps you should go to Port Talbot now that they’ve announced 3000 jobs are going? Thank you for chronicling the real world outside of the London bubble!
    2
  897. Just found out I'm unsubscribed from you, it wasn't my doing!
    2
  898. Love your enthusiasm in this, I felt you have upped your game recently and I honestly think you’ll be great at the ‘made in Britain’ series. Looking forward to watching these. Keep up the good work mate.

  901. Love it you were in Sheffield my home town 😊 Fargate which you were on with the empty shops has gone down hill last few years all the business has gone to the Moor but Fargate is supposedly getting upgraded. Glad you found cutlers hall it’s incredible a hidden gem, millennium gallery is also got some silverware on show free to the public to view. Only just clocked on that the important figures you spoke about are named after pubs knew about Benjamin Huntsman but not Bessemer 😅 good history lesson you’ve given me haha. Hope you enjoyed Sheffield overall, keep up with the good work and great content as always mate 👍🏻

  902. Hi David, great videos! Just wondering if you are sponsored by the north face? Keep up the good work 👍🍺

  903. My man straight up swaggering in this vid. Swag on my dude.

  904. I bought a bike a few weeks ago for £500, it’s currently in the Black Friday sale at £550 🤷🏻‍♂️
    2
  905. “But I saved ex amount!” You didn’t save, you spent your money 😂
    2
  906. Didn't bother with black Friday. Never bought anything. I remember years ago seeing it in the US and wondered what was going on. Now the UK has it. Australia has it. Mostly a con. But then as they say, let the buyer beware.
    2
  907. Bet if you found a nice industrial chimney deal on Black Friday you'd change your mind
    2
  908.  @wanderingturnip  Entertaining rants, my man.
    2
  909. Black friday is for the sheep. Ignore it. Don't feed the machine.
    2
  910. My computer speakers happened to blow this past week, was searching high and low for some good deals, though when you look at the historical price, the 'deal' they present is the price it's been all year!

  911. Stunningly beautiful snowy landscape, fantastic natural unscripted commentary and little Ted trotting along in his jacket - so freakin' cute!!! Love this channel 🙌💕

  921. Love your videos, keep doing what you're doing and you will get the house one day!

  922. Yo yo Wandering Turnip! Regarding record shops, Come to Essex! We have some wicked records run by great people; here's some I would frequent: Roots & Grooves - Colchester Roots & Grooves - Brightlingsea Best Days Vintage - Colchester Novel Sounds - Maldon Instense Records - Chelmsford Area 51 Records - Braintree Music Mania - Clacton Spindrift Records - Clacton Red Rocket Music - Wivenhoe Format Records - Walton-on-Sea

  924. Extortionate parking prices that are in force until 10 PM are a killer. Don't forget Nottingham also has the 'Workplace Parking Levy' which is a tax on parking in your work's car park. This costs individuals up to £550 a year. Obscene.
    2
  925. I'm okay with ads, I really like your content. Literally what I was looking for, for two years now. I'd be really happy for you to get a house.
    2
  926. Thanks!

  927. Go and get your sponsors lad because you actually fucking deserve it, there's not many people who wanna live their dreams and go out to show people the country, bless you man.
    2
  928. Take the sponsors lad, we all know the score it’s how you can make a good living at this, you don’t need to explain man. Love the vids

  932. Yellow North Face and the Wandering Turnip - name a better duo?
    2
  933. Great comment 👍
    2
  934. Thank you for doing this series. It’s exactly the right thing to do - promote British businesses.
    2
  935. How do you keep making better and better video's, unreal. This is the best though, has to be said. Showing us all that even after the high street is dead there is still hope. Also like his friend told him years ago, get a trade. Plumber, electrician, joiner, mechanic whatever the trade, take it up and make it a career. We all need service people and anyone that lives in a nice house or flat will need a tradesman at some point. REALLY looking forward to the next video. Thanks Turnip.
    2
  936. This series is a fantastic idea. The first thing I would recommend is buying some lavalier mics (you were very loud in the video because you were right next to the camera internal microphone) then you can record both your interviewee and your own audio separately. Lavaliers are better than getting a handheld microphone, you can just clip on and forget about it, way better than thrusting a microphone in someone's face. Keep recording the audio through the internal microphone too though, as a backup.
    2
  937. you are doing a wonderful job for history ,honestly...Thank you.

  938. Inspiring first episode. Congrats!

  941. Thank you for putting this video together, I know the time and effort it takes, not just in the camera work but as much in editing it for the screen. Allow me to whet your appetite for Market Halls, with a VT I did almost ten years ago, on the history of Accrington Market Hall. https://youtu.be/gCBUI2hfiWU?si=9Y1HLCptEEiLTxuE I do feel sorry for the Councils of some of these northern Towns. It's a sad fact that when the industries these towns were built on closed down, it rang the death knell for much of its retail businesses. It's a true fact, much of Great Britain's wealth in the 19th century was created on the backs of the cotton mills in the north of England. But then, as these industries closed down, the Governments of the day did nothing to replace their means of making a living. And as one of your commentators has said, more residents lived in the towns, hence they had the footfall for the shops. Accrington is a much smaller town than Bolton but has suffered the same fate, with many shops boarded up and most of the big high street names, now gone. I'm not sure what the future holds for these towns, but I doubt they will be the retail centres of the past. I was surprised not to see any charity shops in your footage, as in Accrington there are several in the town centre. Alongside those, there will undoubtedly be the coffee bars and cafes, which at least gives the impression there is still some life in the town yet. Another assistance to the decline in our town's retail businesses has been the onset of Online shopping. I know I'm as guilty as most of us. When I'm looking to buy something, I find the internet offers a wider choice, more competitive prices and home deliveries. So, the best of luck to Bolton and these Northern towns for their future. Whatever it ay be, as I am always saying, it's the folks that makes a Town what it is, so, watch this space as future generations take over!

  942. I like your content but maybe you could add a min or two of talking to the people. Get there perspective on how things are going and how things got the way they are.
    2
  943.  @wanderingturnip  Thanks for the reply mate.
    2
  944. Is that Todmorden train station you're starting off in? Looked up from my phone and noticed my home town station!
    2
  945. Your You tube channel is amazing. Please keep going and do not stop. Please visit more small town life

  952. Thank you for showing Croydon in a good light, I've lived here for 23 years. It is really disappointing how the Conservative government caused Croydon to go bankrupt. People need to understand that their are good places in areas deemed as "bad". We also have a museum in the Library near Vue cinema.
    2
  953.  @louminati4318  The Royal Mail aren't the people who made up borough/county boundaries. The Surrey postcode is most probably a relic from pre-1965 which is when Croydon was made a London borough, as already commented. Why are you being so pedantic about it anyway? It's literally in South London now. Deal with it.
    2
  954. JUST SUB ONE LOVE GOOD VIBES 🫶🏾👊🏾
    2
  955. We’re being propagandised into thinking this is inevitable natural progression. It’s not. We are being scammed out of our own economy by oversized corporations. Take back your high streets and start spending your money like you want to.
    2
  956. William Herschel discovered my what?? There are some beautiful buildings, it’s such a shame these awful glass/metal curved buildings are littering the sky line! Also US office is the better office. I am very impressed by the big Tesco!
    2
  957. I can agree  @Chalks38  I watched all and his excitment about the chimney was unreal lol..
    2
  958. He did say it was around mid day when he began the video. Slough is like that whatever time of day, one visits. I have been there three times in the last month, so would know!
    2
  959.  @wanderingturnip  only fools and horses for me
    2
  960. Hey man I absolutely love your channel keep up this amazing series
    2
  961. I'm trying to make a wisecrack about Slough & Uranus but think I'll go to bed instead.
    2
  962. got a bit emotional when i saw greggs was shut
    2
  963. Great to see Slough is worse than Stoke, makes me feel better already.
    2
  964. I'm sure Herschel wasn't the the first to find Uranus..... I'll see myself out.
    2
  965. Reading, Aldershot, Bracknell... You've got a Didcot, Yately... Winnersh, Taplow 😂
    2
  966. The Tesco is almost identical to the one in Maryhill, Glasgow. Love your videos 👏🏾
    2
  967. Can we have a tier list once you get to episode 10?
    2
  968. So Black and Yellow Ochre by The North Face is your thing? I like it.
    2
  969.  @wanderingturnip  just think, next time you are watching Frasier and see good old Martin, remember the walks you had on Blackpool beach and think of him as a kid playing there.
    2
  970. I've used Trainpal for all my journey for years and it's excellent - apart from it's missing a lot of obvious splits (eg Oxford to Leamington Spa) that used to work. I do like the regular discounts eg was 4% off everything a couple of weeks ago.
    2
  971. Excellent episode mate. I agree (how couldn’t you) with the comparison with mainland European train services. Our offering is pitiful while being expensive. Keep it up!
    2
  972. Look at the clown of the head of our country it’s just bad decisions after bad decisions to the point of no salvage it’s sad, so sad. Love the video man! ❤
    2
  973. British trains, the most expensive and worst trains on the planet. That's 2 wins there!
    2
  974. The ad for the case is brill 😂
    2
  975. Wow your 100% correct mate . You only show it as it is and that's why your cannel does so well. Our government has turned a blind eye re our small bossiness . Most of who are retail . So yes go to your local councils and ask them why the tax rates so high . Ask them why does it cost so much to rent an outlet etc . Government greed tax tax tax . Give us all a break and listen to us before theres nothing left . Great stream one of your best .👍👍👍

  976.  @wanderingturnip  Keep strumming, I've never had a go on one but play geetar and love the sound of all similar planks.

  984. very informative... cheers mate !
    2
  985. I'm assuming Amazon and online food ordering services are the main reason massive abandoned stores are appearing globally...
    2
  986. The system is broken when you have a row of food vendors in tents, alongside a row of empty storefronts.
    2
  987. Amazing work pal
    2
  988. The big one on the stand that you asked about, it was a Topshop x
    2
  989. Yes Mr Turnip, your finest video yet
    2
  990. This is a great series.
    2
  991. Great video

  992. Turnip, if you want to know what the shops were before they closed look on google street view. Piers
    2
  993. A wonderful video. Loved the haunting singing at CovGar. Well done you.

  994. London appears to be an adult amusement park for the 1% of uberich.
    2
  995. I love this guy. He has great energy. Give him a TV show (if he wants one!)
    2
  996. One of the few YouTubers who can entertain educate and depress you simultaneously!
    2
  997. Eye watering sums. It reminds me somewhat of reading "The Road To Wigan Pier" by Orwell. Keep up the real journalism!
    2
  998. Why don't you just researched something instead of commenting bile. That doesn't make any sense
    2
  999.  @wanderingturnip  You mean the police actually shut down obvious criminal activity in London? that's a rarity.
    2
  1000. Love the content pal, i was born in Kendall,but family moved down south,spent all my summer holidays living with my nan in Ambleside, loved it, fishing in the park, with an old Smithy's chippy,,and walking up lofrick, Grasmere ginger bread, witch my family have to best recipe and the start up for it,, keep up the good content cheers mark
    2
  1001. Interesting content. Keep up the good work on your channel. Regards, WR4K.

  1002. Nice one , ive used the hi vis and hard hat disguise to be rendered invisible , but the lanyard is the finishing touch :)
    2
  1003. We have utterly lost our minds.
    2
  1004. Not that much appealed this time. Casting my builders eye over them. Even the last one with the cracks. Very dodgy looking cracks. Expect someone will do a purely cosmetic reno. Cash in and run. The first one with the big hole obviously has drainage issues. Some of the old services in London leave a bit to be desired. Don't think I could flip any of them easily, with a genuine repair. And make much profit. And the lease on the other kills that. More joys of London. Expensive, overrated, unfriendly, overcrowded. Not much to like.
    2
  1005. On the Weymouth St flat in Central London you made a quite serious error I'm afraid. In the value when extended you used the auction sold price. That's the value with a 9 year lease, fully extended the value would be 3 or 4 times that and this would be reflected in the cost of extending the lease. I would imagine this would certainly increase the cost considerably.
    2
  1006. Another cracking video Turnip, northern lads FTW 👊 🎉 The disguise proper cracked me up, wearing the helmet off site was a dead giveaway for me tho, imposter! 😂
    2
  1007. Just got back to Harrogate with my wife after going and visiting it, David. It’s a lovely built chimney, it is. Such a shame it’s been ruled it has to go, mate. If you ask em for the stones they take down, I’ll rebuild it in your back garden if you like! 😊 Shame, buddy, it is.
    2
  1008. More bad news for you, an old mill in Elland with an old chimney has just been demolished aswel. Tourists come to Hebden Bridge to see stuff like this, no old stuff, no tourists. However, if they find any bats that live anywhere near, or in the chimney. They won't be able to demolish it just yet. Lets hope for some rare bats, or birds.
    2
  1009. Brickwork ? Its stunning, such a shame if it goes, doesn't look in to bad condition ??? Keep up your good work Turnip ✌
    2
  1010. Bricks? Dressed Stone from a local quarry.
    2
  1011. Before you even said it, I wrote, "You gotta get a brick!" I've done that when they demo'ed historic buildings where I live.

  1017. I'm betting this channel will continually grow, exponentially fast. Good content, excellently presented. Love this channel!
    2
  1018. I am a new subscriber after someone told me to watch you as you’re local and I’d like your videos. I’ve lived here 7 years and first noticed it walking weeks after moving to Mytholmroyd and have heard it called the lightening tree by many people. I love it and just this week as I went past I saw a heron on one of the branches but didn’t get chance to take a picture. I’ve only watched 4 of your videos so far and I love them and your enthusiasm for what you’re showing us. Keep up the good work 👏👏👏
    2
  1019. Phil is a really good guide,really interesting.
    2
  1020. Another incredibly informative video. You are the new guy Martin. I love your enthusiasm and thirst for knowledge. This deffo sets you apart from the usual YouTube bollocks.
    2
  1021. Mate, good video as usual but I do have one question: Did you really run a 5K in 19:16? Assuming you did, I take my hat off to you. Impressed!
    2
  1022. The camera woman for the ad is 10/10 🎉

  1023. Happy to see that you’re getting those ads in mate 💰💪

  1029. Fabulous locations in Yorkshire. I just love houses built of Yorkshire stone. So solid and can take the battering from the weather. There are so many fantastic converted farmhouses in God's own county. I've just explored a unique, still commissioned, street with no road and no houses in Bradford.
    2
  1030. I love your endless energy snd enthusiasm.I could almost see Kathy and Heathcliffe roaming around those moors!
    2
  1031. love your wandering about since finding you on you tube watch you every day love the one where you slept in an abandoned house also the dry stone walling one please keep up the good work also love your jumper logo 5 stars
    2
  1032.  @wanderingturnip  I’m sure if seen or heard about it before but imagine someone from outside the UK learning that it can actually happen? I spent a bit of time in Beijing before the Olympics and they literally razed(maybe incorrect word) the slums to make it look better! Those guys didn’t have a choice. Honestly keep up the good work, so humble, informed and non-judgemental. Love it bro x

  1033. wandeering turnip keeps it real ✌

  1034. An honest realestate agent. As rare as the exemplary properties in your portfolio. I think you sold property number one down a bit. Perfect for the buyer that wants room to improve. Add their own stamp. Number three, bit more worried about the damp. But who wouldn't want such sociable neighbours, waking you up on a Sunday morning. Scratching on the corner of your house. The views and isolation sell them though. Satellite dish on the roof for all modern conveniences. Quad bike parked at the door for easy access. Are you open to offers on house one ? A very English, humorous take on the world of selling property. Something we have always been good at. Now being replaced by slapstick American "comedy". That I don't find funny in the least. I'll email you my offer.
    2
  1035. Country.

  1036. The rusty wheelbarrow in house number 3 was the clicher for me.

  1037. There is some stunning abandoned places in West Yorkshire and some crazy mills if you know where to look ;) top video W.T well done

  1038. Paul Whitehouse - brilliant lad - luv what you are doing.

  1039. Excellent. I think your estate agency should be called WrongMove, as in any other move is the wrong one.

  1040. This is well funny. Keep it going.

  1041. Where I live in Bolton we had a railway cutting that run past are home and its last passenger service in 1954 and it's last freight service in the late 50s and as kids we plaid down the cutting on what was the track bed and we spent many an hour building dens from old pallets and good pallets we borrowed 🤣 from the local haulage company.best year of are lives.my mother always said you could get on a train at are local station and go all the way to Southport.
    2
  1042. Regarding the zebra crossings in Paris (France), the law which states you must yield for a pedestrian was only made in 2018!😅 So this is all new for the French drivers before it was the responsibility of the pedestrian to make it safely over to the other side.
    2
  1043. Where there's a mass of Amazon infrastructure there is an absence of a high street
    2
  1044. Watching your vid atm, a bit miffed, you shouldn't compare Paris with any uk towns, it is the capital city and London beats it by a mile, even though London has over 9 million people and Paris only 2 mil, love your videos but had to comment!
    2
  1045. Really interesting video. Tres bon.

  1046. I DON'T do Amazon, ever. Great job !

  1050. bonjour! :D it's really nice to listen when you are just sharing your current thoughts out loud, without script or any plan.... that's always so interesting for listener!

  1051. Through Paris Tourist Info get the Paris Card and book the Eifel Tower in advance!!! Much less queuing, and a lot less stress and a better experience.
    2
  1052. COME TO MY CITY - BURGAS - BULGARIA you can have a look what a THRIVING city looks like - give people HOPE...!!! There is a waiting list for a shop in the centre - people are renovating old communist-era shops on the outskirts and opening them...!!! You might get an interview with the Mayor as to how he has achieved this

  1055. This was a fun vlog! Had me laughing a few times.. especially when it turns out you prefer a tiny chimney to the Eiffel Tower.. 🤣 Hope you and Eleanor enjoyed the fondue at least.. 11:08 😆 Whaaaaat? You wouldn't even return to Slough for the chimney, David? I even wrote you an ode on that vlog.. 🤭 🤦🏻‍♀️ "Depressing, disheartening..." - then, "WOW!" 😍 Said Turnip whilst wand'ring through Slough.. A brick chimney he'd spied Punching tall, full of pride! He thinks the town's wonderful now! 😆 Good sponsor for your vlog abroad.. Babbel could be next.. Great job, excellent presentation as always.. really enjoyed it, thanks and huge congrats on 100K! 👍🍻

  1058. Glad to see that you've been into O'CD rue Pierre Lescot, I enjoy this Cd/Dvd/Vinyl shop when I am in Paris. Your videos in Nottingham were also interesting, I used to live in Beeston during my Erasmus year in 2019 and I think it is sad that George Center is now closed

  1059. wow what a amazing view of those mountains. it really does remind me of how amazing GOD has made things so beautiful for our eyes. bless you david for showing us the lake district

I like this post on Instagram ================== I worked there in 1957 and have fond memories of the place and the friendly group of people I worked with - Five males and about 50 females.The jam wasn't bad either - all "Hand Made", by Arthur, in big stainless steel pans from real fruit pulp & sugar. Arthur used to wear wooden clogs with steel plates on the soles Reg supervised the women who hand filled and packed the jars Periodically, Harold the "Cooper/Cellar Man" (the fruit came in barrels) swept the chimney and me and the other lad wheeled the soot to the bottom of the yard to dump by the railway tracks. It was hard work, carrying and lifting the fruit & sugar shoulder high into the vast pans. The boiling hot jam splashed onto your skin sometimes and it would stick to you and burn like "Heck" ! But it was well paid and I enjoyed my time there - "Happy Days". Thanks for the reminder with the photo of the "Big old Chimney" ===================

  1067. You carry on doing what you love, because we love what you do.

  1068. Your enthusiasm is infectious. I hang onto every word in your videos. Educating me on things ive had no interest in. Congrats on 100k 🎉

  1069. Congratulations. Love your show.

  1070. Been waiting for you to get to Bradford, great video as always. Congrats on 100k, one of my favourite channels to watch 🤩🥳

  1071. The homoeroticism of this episode is off the charts, and honestly I'm here for it. 😅

  1072. Is it weird to enjoy Fred Dibnah video's destroying chimneys and enjoy Wandering Turnip's showing the history and love for chimney's at the same time ?
    2
  1073. What about a little Fred dibnah homage!,nice video thank you
    2
  1074. If you want to see genuine, unfiltered, childlike enthusiasm, just watch a Wandering Turnip video about chimneys.. Fantastic work
    2
  1075. Grats on 100k....here's to 200k and beyond :)

  1076. Simply great, thank you.

  1077.  @wanderingturnip  likewise. Thank you 👍🏾

  1078. Congratulations on reaching 100k subscribers. There was some great photography in this video, using a drone, and using it effectively elevates your channel to a new level. It was good to see a video which highlighted a very positive feature of a city which in recent years has not had very good things said about it. Perhaps there is a lesson to be learnt here, and that is to seek out what is good and unique about a place, rather than focusing on the negative.
    2
  1079. PS there would have been many more chimneys back in the day. That canal is the Leeds-Liverpool canal, one of the most important in the UK. Salt's Mill is in Saltaire: it's a world heritage site. Built by sir Titus Salt, he looked after his workers with a hospital, school & church. It used to hold the David Hockney collection. The mill is on the bank of the river Aire, hence the village was called Saltaire.

  1080. You’ll have to do a part 2 😅

  1081. First!!! Lol

  1082. I bet Fred's watching thinking, he's a crackin lad.

  1083. Another great video.. I’ve been here since the start with the dry stone walls and chimneys love them all.. would be great to do a series on Fred Dibnah and a look at the chimneys he used to repair and demolish what’s there now what’s the ones he repaired look like now would be really interesting 👍

  1084. To many “That’s what she said “ opportunities to mention 😂😂

  1088. Really good with local guide, i go Nottingham quite a bit working but never have time to look around properly
    2
  1089. Thanks for doing this, I initially dismissed some of the recommended vids of yours because it sounds bleak in a world that is full of bleak news. However I thought I'd watch. I moved to Notts Sept 2020 and used to come up to visit friends from 2008 onwards, loved the altnerative/rock community up there. I've completely fallen in love with this city and the wider districts (Beeston, Wollaton etc) Glad you've done this vid and hats off to your chaperone who knows his stuff and educated me on things like Upper Parliament Street and the whole Debenham/Primark thing.

  1090. Well done for returning to redress the balance. I was born less than a mile from the Market Square and my first court appearance as a young cop was in the Guildhall Magistrates Court (the large abandoned building you highlighted). As Rob correctly said, the city has ebbed and flowed through the years, having benefitted from the Lace industry, Raleigh Cycles, John Players cigarettes, the coal industry and sporting success with Nottingham Forest, Nottingham Panthers and the likes of Torville and Dean (to mention a few). Amazingly we seem to undersell the biggest legend that Nottingham is famous for, Robin Hood! Keep up the great work 😊
    2
  1091. Good lad, thank you for coming back to visit us in Nottingham. Fantastic info from Rob as well. 👍🏻👍🏻

  1092. that was great wouldnt it be good if you had a knowledgable guy like that in every town you went to. Nice video Wandering Turnip

  1093. Marvellous video, David. You are indeed always positive and I am always recommending your channel to all friends and acquaintances. Keep up the good work - you are doing a fantastic job. Thoroughly enjoyed Nottingham.

  1094. As stated many times on @ForestFanTV I am aware that David Mitchell looks like me.

  1095. Great job Rob! More locally guided high streets please.

  1096. Man, where do you start. An incredible video showing the true Nottingham both good and bad. Every city has problems we see that every day, but I must say Nottingham has amazing history and it should build on that. There's around 100,000 students which any young business person should look at tapping into and start a business catering to their needs. If I was in my 20's and wanted to start a new business I would certainly look at Nottingham. You have everything going for you, potential customers, clean safe city, good public transport and so much more. This video has really opened my eyes to Nottingham, a city I never considered as having so much history. Well done Turnip for yet another great video.
    2
  1097. Great content 🙌🏻❤️ great video ❤️ new follower now 👍🏻. ❤️Nottingham . Rob was very informative 🙌🏻. And i also follow Forest Fan Tv great channel.

  1099. I was brought to this channel as it was mentioned on FFTV. I am glad that you returned to our beautiful city, one which I returned to after working away for 18 years. I will be going through you other videos as I am interested in our great country and videos like yours are a great way to see parts of it. Thank you.

  1111. Unlike many countries, we still have some of the most talented, creative and hard working individuals there are. We are still the envy of the world when it comes to skill and quality. We just don't shout about it (enough). I'm convinced it's because of our climate- Many evenings spent inside or down the pub discussing ideas... Cold drizzley rain, long, dark days. Probably why the industrial revolution started here. 🇬🇧

  1112. Superb,dropped on this video by chance ,love the process and surprised to see the company which I bought body grommets from for my old wolseley cat about a year ago .Thanks for the upload

  1116. Nothing better than a multi generationel British business supplying the world with top products that are needed the world over. Our country was once full of family businesses like this but our government sold them out to the EU and China. Hope they go from strength to strength and for many more generations.

  1117. All you electricians/ electronic engineers out there buy this company’s grommets! Let’s support businesses like this. I might even buy some even though I have no use for them and live in Australia 😂

  1118. David, you’re a journalist, through and through. You have a rare inquisitiveness, perhaps inherited from the same attitudes your parents have. Who, what, when, why…..I missed one. Your dry stone wall videos prompted me to learn a tiny bit more than I knew before & within days, I passed that on to my oldest grandson, who is four. He asked questions about EVERYTHING and he does internalise what he learns. He surprises his parents and his grandparents with statements, links and further questions a few weeks later. He’s a deep thinker, perhaps taking after me (I’m a scientist and I was of that ilk before I had any training). Keep your freshness, your lack of cynicism, your questioning, your outward bound viewpoint. By the way, your Stoodley monument video. Did you see the weird skies?? I shared some stills with a pilot friend. For some reason, he doesn’t want to chat to me about this. I think he’s concerned that I’ll inadvertently trap him. I’m not on his case. I’ve got eyes and a memory. Keep wandering, Mr Burnip. Great name. Mine’s Yeadon (as in Yorkshire). My mums family name was Cockayne, nearby in Yorkshire.

  1123. where the streets are boarded up is due to the failed HMRI scheme the council were taking part in, a combination of the Tory Govt on 2010 stopping the money for HMRI and greedy Housing Associations and Builders who were agents in the scheme getting free houses and land. Next time you come to Liverpool let me know and you can come on our local community radio station and I'll give you all the info on this type of stuff., and get the facts correct

  1139. tWent to BLUDFEST and tickets were £50 each and multiple big artists supported, was a brilliant day, even the food and drinks prices weren't too bad £5 a pint( a real one)other drinks reasonable and food prices weren't much different to what you would pay for a takeaway, there was so much to see and do there on top of the performances, now that is value, these ticket prices for the likes of Oasis are absurd!!!
    1
  1140. Massive music fan. Been to many , many gigs over the years, but at these sort of prices the answer is no thank you. Not interested and most likely wont be in the future. When they lose touch with their fans, you cannot blame the fans for losing touch with the artists. ...Next.

  1145. My advice to younger people is to go and watch loads of up and coming bands at small venues. One day you may be able to proudly claim you watched the next big thing for peanuts before anyone knew who they were. Plus you're supporting artists which is always good 👍
    1
  1146. Sir, thanks for your video and giving us an update or a heads up on what really is the case with these situations. I kind of agree with the theme of the video that these things are ridiculously priced. I mean, if you just take an example of going to a local cinema to see a Monday full of movies, and that's $2 billion of movies that you see for 7 pounds......  these concerts are ridiculously priced. Sir, I went through the mill trying to decide on going to electronic music shows and it took me a long time to figure all this stuff out given that they often live stream to your home for free. And let me tell you Sir, I have figured it out. But here are some of the pitfalls. The top ticket at some events I was looking at were $50,000 per ticket and other stories of events in the Las Vegas desert, such as EDC..... with drink bills of $14,000 for a party of 15.....for just-3 days....? ( i've seen the receipt ) Sir, the whole thing is absurd .........I've heard from several artists many years in the business that they don't really support "festivals" and that when that word is introduced it's just a massive dollar sign. For example, 6 acres of fields rented. Just for cash machines......? Sir, I discovered that in electronic music you only need to go to what's called  warehouses or extended club events with world class DJ's in London where I live .......just 20 odd pounds for a 10 hour evening of the best sound systems and lighting you can possibly imagine. So my big taboo word in life  is one word----> "festivals". regards ben
    1
  1147.  @wanderingturnip  no I agree. But if people stopped paying the hiked prices they would have to drop it. Unfortunately you will always have people in life that can afford to pay those prices and those that can’t . In my mind it’s not life or death to see a concert and I don’t see the fascination in oasis but that’s just my opinion.

  1148. “The modern day gig”. Normal gigs are pretty reasonable. This is just a very special event that because of Instagram, everyone wants to be at to show all their friends they were there. So many people going just know wonderwall and DLBIA and loooooove Instagram. That’s the biggest change. The phones are gonna be unbearable. The days of people just doing what they love are long gone. Now it’s about being seen to be doing the thing everyone else loves.

  1161. Freemasons originally were stonemasons, in the 13th century they were effectively the first trade union, formed because the churches banned outside gatherings. The Freemasons we know today though are basically a toff's boy's club formed in the later part of the 17th century, only similarity to the original Freemasons is the name.

  1170. It's private land, they have the right to tell you to stop filming. I'm fairly sure however that the argument that it is illegal for you to film there is wrong, as you have no expectation of privacy on public land, and you do not need any sort of permission for public land. As reguards privately owned public spaces, I think it is legal unless told otherwise either by sighnage or in person.

  1171. Warhammer though, there is one in my town and they always seem open! Stoke-on-Trent! I have also found some more bottle kilns you may have missed from the stoke video. I will walk a dog and take some photos for you!

  1173. Why would you want to run a physical store? Answer: Because you like to engage in society (i.e a form of social work). The bigger shops are just there for profits. What you see is local governments having failed society.

  1177. Mate this is a phenomenal video. I’ve lived in leeds since 2013, in town 2022-2024 and I can’t believe how many of they stores have closed. I was surprised that so many have closed myself. And driving into town….it’s absolutely ridiculous. It doesn’t help that they are building something ALL THE TIME! Even the night life sucks these days

  1180. Funny how you call your intro "a depressing note", I mean, your main series is "the death of the highstreets"... so yeah, that speaks for itself lol Despite being a bit "depressing", it's very interesting to see how things are over there in the UK - we're dealing with similar crap over here in the Netherlands, just to a bit lesser extent. It really shows that the global financial systems are dysfunctional, cracks in that system are forming... it's coming to an end.

  1194. Thanks

  1195. You have hit the nail on the head. I look at this and wonder why on earth they are all empty - why doesn't the landlord just reduce the rent and fill the shops. But you are right - it's to 'maintain the illusion' of wealth. Probably so the landlord can keep their mortgage - because the property is 'valued' at XXXXX. Although, as you have clearly identified, it isn't worth that at all. And if the landlord admits that, then the whole pack of cards comes down. The landlord has to accept a lower rent, and the value of the property is diminished. However, the landlord still has to pay a mortgage on that 'inflated' figure. It's a crazy pack of cards.

  1196. Turn them into housing, cafes, and restaurants? Apparently you agree. I commented about a minute from the end of the video.

  1202. You want to see the reason for the death of the high street set up a camera on any semi busy road and count the number of Amazon and Evri trucks that dive past in 24 hours! Surely greedy landlords will be forced to lower rents, they can’t afford to have it vacant for too long right?

  1205. Ignore the haters. You're doing a great job and you have a great talent

  1206. I think the truth is the days of going to a place to simply buy things is over. If you know what you want, online is always the way, its more efficient for your own time and money. The reason places like warhammer and coffee shops still do well is because they're experiences more than they're shops. coffee shops are actually selling a warm well lit space to come sit and enjoy a beverage more than the beverage itself, you can make a coffee at home for pennies. Warhammer doesnt just sell plastic toys they have people working there who are deeply passionate about it, they only hire experts/megafans. They put on events and teach people how to paint their figures. By going to a warhammer shop you can get the best advice on how to play or build or paint your figures. Which ones to get, you can meet other fans too. I think the way forward is not to try bring back a failed past, but it's to accept integration of multiple types of use in city centers, it's to force rents lower if a place goes unoccupied, it's to convert some of these empty buildings to housing, it's to stop BSing ourselves that constant growth is sustainable or even possible and start building a system that puts people first not property values.

  1246. This is the stuff I've campaigned for years now...SAVING PUBS🍺 Its in my soul...they've done a great job with the pub, ( huge ain't it, glad it's not gone down the gastro road). Now the Fox & Goose a pub I went in over 40 years ago...love the place...I even donated to their beer garden during lockdown...that was a well deserved pint David after producing a brilliant video...Nice one mate...( just an idea but a video on our favourite pub the Golden Rule might be worth doing on your channel) I've touched on it but you can do a much better job. Cheers pal👍

  1247. Fantastic video you should do more like this

  1250. Pubs are about more than just drink. Community matters. As does having a space to meet. Many villages only have a pub left as a place to gather.
    1
  1251. Great stuff. Everyone who has a dead pub in a village should be doing this. No real pubs in industrial Redditch and im 55 so remember good real pubs that wasn't cheap Witherspoon meet for real bad food because nowhere else to go. Support your local pub!!!
    1
  1252. Great vid. I've lived in Italy for 3 years and I miss my local. Well done everyone in this community
    1
  1253. What a bastard who bid 30k basically making these people have to pay more. Something so devious, nasty and hust outright scummy about property developers, essentially they go around the world destroying local communities by buying land or knocking down properties etc.

  1254. Always good to hear a channel that talks about perfect fourths!

  1268. We have a weekly session in our local craft beer house. It started as just a way to play some tunes but has grown into a community of workers, players and listeners. Towns need places and reasons to gather.

    1
  1276. 16:35 My issue with this channel is that the host fails to answer his OWN questions by not seeking the correct individuals. An example being entering a old-school market yet not seeking the Market Management for an interview. Turnip needs to do more networking in seeking locals, estate agents, members of local authorities, journalists & academics. Turnip has good screen presence along with a foundation yet it's time to build and improve his brand or it will become tiresome.

  1285. I've lived in Huddersfield for most of my life. Here are some things I've found with living here. Good and bad: Bad: - The town centre is ridiculous. Since bus gates were introduced, it's become nearly impossible to drive around here. I only go into town for a drink. - Saying that, nightlife is dead. It used to be quite busy 10-12 years ago. Many bars and clubs but there's very little here now. - Knife/drug crime is horrendous. I wouldn't recommend walking around alone at night. Nitty's or dealers could have you at any point. Good - There's a decent music scene here. Same with the theatre. If you look for it, you can find a vibrant culture. - The architecture is pretty. It has potential to be very vibrant but rents are killing it. - The smaller villages such as Meltham, Lindley, Honley, Holmfirth, Slaithwaite can be fairly busy and cultural with quality local businesses

  1286. With your love of chimneys you will know all about the Weavers’ Triangle in Burnley and the magnificent India Mill chimney in Darwen?

  1292. Just discovered this channel. Your enthusiasm is infectious. West Yorkshire is like Hollywood. It has palatial properties on the outskirts, yet poverty and degradation at the core. The lack of investment in areas like this is heartbreaking.
    1
  1293.  @wanderingturnip  i love your enthusiasm for what you are doing. Visit Belfast if you can. Booming city center.
    1
  1294.  @wanderingturnip  total coincidence but a welcome one, to be sure
    1
  1295. An excellent question and one that begs an answer since with it affecting pretty much the entire country it doesn't seem like a coincidence
    1
  1296. It's pronounced P AZZA, not plaza or P ARZA. Huddersfield lad here

  1297. I watched this video a few days ago and went to see the mould in the Pack Horse Centre which you highlighted at the start of the video, all the walls were being painted I don't know whether it was this video that's caused this to happen
    1
  1298. The Piazza Shopping Centre is due to be pulled down which is why its so empty. It is going to be replaced by a new library, a park, concert venue and....... wait for it......... a multistory car cark 😂

  1302. Great video as usual! Are pedestrian zones in the UK really closed completely for transport? Where I come from they only restrict regular traffic but people with disabilities or whoever has to deliver and pick-up goods can still pass through, very slowly but still. Which imo makes a lot of sense and for an overall pleasent experience in inner cities.
    1
  1303. I think it’d be interesting if you visited a vibrant, well-off town and do a comparison to all of these sad and desolate places!
    1
  1304. Great content. Glad I discovered your channel. Family hail from Scotland and its the same up there. Banks closing down left right and center for the last couple of years. Its the same here in Australia where I live.

  1309. and I'm going to the chippy this Friday for sure
    1
  1310. Don't know why I just watched this video but what a fantastic piece of modern journalism, conveyed in an engaging, whimsical fashion. Bravo! Oh btw here in London small chips from a local chippy is £3:50, small cod £11 and mushy peas or curry sauce.........😑 "don't be silly lad, now jog on!" 🤣😂 Liked, Shared and subscribed 👍🏾
    1
  1311. That town in The Lakes is absolutely Ambleside/Waterhead

  1312. Watched your video and went to the local chippy. £8.30 for a large cod + chips. Was delicious - thanks for the video !
    1
  1313.  @wanderingturnip  You can only go around bleak towns for so long and for it to remain interesting. I am looking forward to your one on fishing Maybe also down the line consider places etc on the way up. Or just stick to decline. It is your reporting skills that work. But specials will require more work I guess. Sheffield steel North east chemicals Eels Coal

  1314. I have not seen you do a format like this before. It was excellent.
    1
  1315. £10.80 in Braintree, Essex and that is a massive portion of cod and chips which lasts me two days! :)
    1
  1316. £6 for chips n curry sauce IS profiteering
    1
  1317. Got to say, my experience of chip shops is different to yours. Luckily, our local chippy in Preston (Evans’, Blackpool Rd, Lea) is amazing and very cheap. Small fish, chips and peas is £4.80… and the portion is well filling (I’m greedy and it fills me!). We eat fish and chips probably twice a month, occasionally more often, due to the cheapness of our local. It would be a different matter if it cost us £10 per portion.

  1320. @wanderingturnip  hey mate didn't look like it.last chippy l was at in the 70s Cost about 3 pound a few tyoe of fish the cod and a few soft variety Ypy cod bever finish the chips soak in Binger Back then a lot of gangster type ran the chippy they had a few avenues of income so So it was relax also with the butchers But then the curry came into the picture the people put down the fish and chips That's how the eotking and poor people went broke They got hook on curry Snd made some people rich Who said the sun never set on the British empire When curry came it did England lost its class And became working class Nation

  1326. Hahaha let's buy chippies so it stays as our traditional food 😂😂😂😂😂 love your videos man

  1327. 7:37 The German guy is laughing because saying out loud "mushy" in German mean pussy. Hats up to that guy. I would have giggled for a while.
    1
  1328. This video really made me want a classic fish and chips... but with curry sauce. Not sure about mushy peas.
    1
  1329. I love how the guy working at the chippy didn't know about the plaque. Also, people can't stop you from filming in the street, you can tell them to jog on.
    1
  1330. Christ it's sad that some people are using the comments to spout racist crap when they are literally watching about a documentary about a food made by a immigrant. Fantastic little documentary mate. This is a great little topic that i think we can all relate to

  1337. Great video

  1338. Another brilliant video u remember going to the chippy on a Thursday evening and getting fish and chips wrapped in newspaper happy times. The long and short of it is we are all ripped off now people don’t have the spare money they once did hence the pubs closing everywhere sad 😢

  1339. Great video. This is such a good channel 👏👏👏

  1345. some places wrap in imitation (food safe) 'newspaper'

  1346. Good on you for not giving the business to that grumpy old womans shop and going back to the nice one
    1
  1347.  @wanderingturnip  Hey! It's really interesting, it's a topic I honestly would've never thought interesting and gone out my way to look at, but this was a fun watch! I'm waiting for that fishing industry though, that would really pique my interest after this video!
    1
  1348. Very nice video! It would be good to see what takeaways are becoming more popular and what the food do the working class is
    1
  1349. Great video . . good to see my local Mr Thomas’ featured . . there’s an ‘original’ chippy at the Beamish Working Museum near Newcastle . . they use wood and coal fired fryers . . worth a visit 😎

  1350. Great video! Subcribed 👍🏻

    1
  1353. Better journalism than most MSM well done
    1
  1354.  @poika22  Smooth brain. He's talking about surfacing this type of content, not this video specifically. YT algorithm has suddenly improved at this
    1
  1355. “The taste is hilarious” 😂
    1
  1356.  @wanderingturnip  amazing quality for how small it is!
    1
  1357. The place near me was 60p for a portion of chips when I was young, 20 years ago. Went up to £1.80 around 2010-2012. Now it's £3.60. most people still earn the same they did ten years ago so it's insane it's happening. Another chippy opened up nearby selling 50p chips. Small portion though, like a handful.
    1
  1358. The marketing of so-called artisan bread annoys me. It's bread, we shouldn't accept being sold an "upgraded" version. I refuse to pay silly money for any food. I would rather try to make it myself, it may not taste the same but I'll save money. We should learn how to cook more and rely less on food delivery as a crutch. Our forebears did it, why can't we?
    1
  1359.  @wanderingturnip yeah, that’s why I liked your video, well, not only because of that, it’s generally a nice video
    1
  1360. Love this video. We must be undercharging, our large cod and regular chips are £10.50. Wrapped in paper ( not newspaper😂) and we're in Hampshire. Everything spot on in this video. Well done !

  1364. i never usually write comments but i thoroughly enjoyed this video. new sub fr!!!

  1365. Turnip smashed it here. After watching Rate my TakeAway - the gentrification of traditional food is rampantly underway London and will rip you a new one. The cod tastes strange (yes, I used to be a fish monger). An example is Mother Hubbards. From history to franchise and it tastes horrific in East Ham. Haddock that tatses like whiting.
    1
  1366. Fantastic video. Thank you

  1367. Impressive reporting!
    1
  1368. ​@wanderingturnip it's definitely a new one on me 😂

  1369. Am i watching a new episode of the fast show? "Isnt fish n chips brilliant"
    1
  1370.  @poika22  mmmmm. An attempt at snark. A little limp noodled when considered in context, though. He’s been producing content for about a year and I, myself, find the content compelling. A more finely-tuned retort might have tickled me enough to giggle quietly (at myself) but sadly, you just come off as an a-hole. But thanks for playing. Hope you enjoy your stupid prize.

  1375. Your content is awesome man
    1
  1376. If this video was based in the US the comments would be screaming "bidenflation". This was a great video though, very thorough. Got my sub! edit, another note, I love fish and chips, however I probably wouldn't eat it often due to trying to reduce my fried food intake.

  1377. Hay man, I'm located in the Philippines and now searching for any restos offering fish and chips here!

  1381. In my day they used to say : “Today’s news, tomorrow’s chip paper”.
    1
  1382. Yes I use to eat from newspaper, my old chippy was still serving up in newspaper in the 90s, for some weird reason it always tasted better. Quality video mate and a new sub here

  1383. I just watched a video about Fish and Chips for over 20 minutes and found it intriguing… good on ya

  1387. Not bad that lad

  1388. Be honest. The only reason you made this video was to eat as much fish and chips as you can...

  1390. I'm hungry now! Great video though, I'll definitely get some fish 'n' chips next time I'm back in Blighty!

  1391. My man was so shook by the price of chips he had to turn it to a business expense 😅
    1
  1392. I couldn't help but order fish and chips after watching this.
    1
  1393.  @wanderingturnip I had a fish and chips couple of days ago - was less than £7
    1
  1394. I was watching this vid and thinking, why does this place look familiar? Then you turned the corner and I saw Tommyfield market!! I saw you came to my home town of Oldham XD. Better believe ill be dropping in even more to these shops if they struggle this much.

  1395. This guy lowkey looks like Messi , great vid though.

  1396. I know what I’m having for dinner!

  1397. Looking at the size of the fish filet you got from Mr Thomas's, I think the price is on par with the first meal. Five pounds 💷 compared to ten pounds 💷. The fish looks twice the size in the video. And it's the most expensive part of the meal. However he's doing it, Mr Thomas is keeping his prices competitive. Bang up job 👍👏!

  1399. Great content and great presentation on a subject that needs more coverage like this. My local chippy is actually owned by a local supermarket franchise and trades at a partial loss so that it can keep prices low, taking the hit by taking financial support from the profits made by the supermarket. Not an ideal solution but it does serve good fish and chips at an affordable price because it is not relying totally on the income from the fish and chip sales. By the way, this Youtube presentation just earned you a sub, keep up the good journalism 👍😎

  1401. If you are going to cover the UK fishing industry then you’ll need to head to Peterhead. The largest fishing port in the UK and the largest fish market.. Take a trip to the Victorian prison which is now a museum whilst you are up there.

  1405. Staple Friday night tea in my youth. Can't remember now what the price of fish was, but I easily recall the chips - maybe because sometimes chips were all we could afford. Six penn'orth of chips! And that's proper pennys, of course. Two and a half of your modern Pees. But what's the point of mooning back seventy years? Great video, by the way I like your manner.

  1441. Interesting vid and I’ll sub to your channel. I was in retail work for a long time in the 80s 90s and I find it interesting what’s going on today. Your vid is in depth ie business rates, rent etc and I like how you show it how it is and not someone who searches for the most decrepit run down area. Do Sheffield sometime because that’s a sorry ghost town.

  1460. Im happy about the 'death' of the 'high street'. Retail was always such a shite use of our cities.and public spaces. Convert the remaining space into housing, have more leisure and dining/ drinking/ evening activities and cultural spaces. Order your shopping online or in bland out of town centres- for a bland out of town activity. Have more pedestianisation and livable cities with more greened space and neighbourhoods. Im fed up with everyone lamenting the death of retail as if it was ever some kind of vibrant enjoyable social activity. No, it was a trudge at best. We are in a transition to mich nicer cities and im all for it

  1467. Hiya Turnip, i dont know if you will get this message, but ive been thinking about your fabulous channel and i had a message from you saying that you are following George Orwells route in "The Road To Wigan Pier", im really pleased about that bit of news. Now, i think you are from the Hebdon Bridge area? So have you heard the story about Ted Hughes? Poet laureate died 1998? He was from Hebden Bridge area. TWO of his wives/partners commited suicide and even killed his 5 year old daughter with her. He was married to Sylvia Plath and his only son died about 3 years ago in Canada, suicide again. Very tortured soul but an outstanding poet. Perhaps you can follow his life? Its very compelling story. And id love to see the places that inspired him. Its only a thought! Thanks Turnip, looking forward to your next video. Kind regards Sadie Wales

  1475. Off the scale! Your best video yet. I suggest you branch off more into this realm; telling us more about the history of places and the relics left behind. Great to find out the origin of your name at last. The souls of your ancestors are beaming tonight.

  1476. Hey man, I don't know if you will see this but I read a great book about Wigan a few years ago and it was one of the best books I've ever read. The name of the book is Rose, by a guy named Martin Cruz Smith. He's the guy who wrote Gorky Park and other books about Russia. It's a fantastic read and has a unbelievable ending. But the whole thing is set in Wigan. I love your videos, I'm from America and I love English history. Anyway, thanks for the video!

  1484. I'm hoping to return home to Wigan after an absence of 9 years - I've regularly visited during that time, so I'm not naive to the changes the town has experienced. However, despite some of what you have showcased in parts of this video, I can't wait to return. To me, Wigan isn't the boarded up shops, Orwell's observations of poverty (I don't dispute the poverty, but if he'd have gone for a long walk, he'd have seen some very green, pastoral places) or disappearing industries, it is the warmth of the people and the clean suburban streets and beautiful countryside and canals that are never more than a mile away, and having a pint outside the John Bull on a balmy summer night with a soundtrack from the best jukebox in the world. Wigan isn't perfect at all, but I love it, and being in Wigan makes me feel like being wrapped in a warm blanket.

  1512. Well done, sir. I must try and read Orwell much more than the few bits of 1984 we read at college. My Family were Coal Merchants, hence my interest. I'm watching a 2+ month old video, but I hope you've managed to find much more to occupy your talents, camera and time too. A great tale of the Colliers, with many songs and laments written and sung. The Gresford Disaster in 1906, may be of interest, being a Wrexham Pit, not that far from Wigan I see, and probably working the same Coal Bed and its many seams. It was a scandal at the time as 42days of work records were deliberately destroyed before the Enquiry. The laws Queen Victoria set down in 1864, the "Child Labour Laws" and "Slavery Abolishment" and how that extended to the "Indentured Colliers", there was every chance that still, in your Great Great Great Granddads time, the kids would've possibly been down there with him. All the best. Cheers!

  1518. The fact is, your channel is unique, David.. and it's unique thanks to your natural talent and passion for storytelling and your genuine interest in British industry and history! You definitely found your calling in life! I may have lived in Italy for nearly 2 decades, (Derbyshire born and bred) but your videos conjure up memories of not only countryside walks in the Peak District or the Yorkshire Dales with my grandparents, but also holidays in seaside towns like Blackpool and Scarborough.. it's just magical to be taken back in time like that!⭐🌟 They are also extremely informative and educational.. Even my friends here in Italy (many of whom have never been to England) are fascinated to watch your videos because you make them interesting for EVERYONE.. It's strange how it took me so long to watch this Wigan video.. I had put it aside for later as I simply didn't know the town.. In fact it was super interesting and went way beyond my expectations! I think the old footage really added something special and made it your best work yet.. 🎩😀 It's hard to imagine the harsh life of the miners, but with such powerful visuals it brings everything to the forefront! Honestly, I have watched this video twice as it was so moving.. and I will be watching it again and have shared with my friends and family.. 🙏👏👍Your hard work is much appreciated.. ​ @wanderingturnip

  1522. Great episode, I really liked your narration with Orwell along the way. Here's some fun coal facts living in 2023 you may not know - our housecoal for the open fire came from Colombia, but my Polish pals are saying their mines are now closing 40-50years after opening due to EU pressure and regulations (all to be closed by 2049). Meanwhile, the USA are opening more open mines because all the leccy vehicles need power for charging. They're happy there's a demand and some old coal mining towns are starting to bounce back in Virginia. I personally don't ever see humans existing without some forms of fossil fuels, I'd hazard a guess it will be coal and not oil. Renewables aren't there yet/ too carbon heavy at the start of life and fusion is still to come.

  1549. I totally agree about the TV Licence; it feels increasingly dated. It needs to be scrapped, and the BBC funded via some sort of levy that people can opt out of if they want to. But I do feel there is a place for linear broadcast TV as some sort of failsafe

  1564. I'm enjoying your films, I've visited and lived in some of the places you've visited and it's sad to see them looking in some cases even more down at heel than they did 20 or 30 years ago. That said, there are some places that were really shabby when I knew them which are now gentrified, e.g. Shoreditch in London. What I'd really like to try and understand is why so many small businesses are failing. You've picked up on the high council rates for businesses which is definitely one area which needs to be addressed if people ever want to see more than betting shops on their high streets. But I think rents and utility costs are two other big factors. I run a small manufacturing business and in the past year my electricity bill has gone up from around £80/month to about £250. I'm paying 3x what I pay for my electricity in my flat. It's making it really hard to keep going. No-one really seems able to explain why there is this difference between prices for businesses and prices for domestic users. Meanwhile in places like China and Poland businesses pay a tiny fraction of what we pay. Unless or until the Uk gets competitive in producing cheap electricity (or restricts imports from low cost countries) it's hard to see how any manufacturing businesses can survive in the UK. I'd really like to see someone like you make a film about this. Another big factor is rents. I am amazed at how many landlords are wiling to let shops, factories, pubs etc stay closed and boarded up for years, decades even, rather than reduce the rents and let someone have a go at starting a business. Who are these landlords, and how can they afford to let places stay empty? Are they doing it for some kind of tax break? I'd really like to see you make a film about this too. Keep up the good work, and if you want to come and check out some more post-industrial areas in the West of Scotland where I am, please get in touch. Cheers, Dan

  1570. Don't get yourself in a stew,turnip - you could get a job in the local library - now that would be a turnip for the books !

  1571. I've been so emotional over a brick on someone's behalf. Great video!

  1573. Why go to your local high street greengrocer that's been there for generations when the likes Hello Fresh can take their custom? Just ribbing – we know you've gotta provide for family as best you can.

  1574. You my mate need a van. Love the channel, careful now ❤

  1575. Only in Britain would you watch a vid of a guy hunting a brick.
    1
  1576. Best video since the Hordern one that made him a bit famous. The breakout stars were the Accrington people
    1
  1577. Last week, a pastiche of TV licence and an homage to Bald and Bankrupt. This week asking me if I have ever considered the importance of bricks. Your content is superb.
    1
  1578. No wonder security man is able afford a Stone Island hat he's moving bricks on these streets.
    1
  1579. Go and get some brick acid from B&Q and a brittle brush clean that brick up have it looking like new. Your dad will appreciate the effort

  1584. Nice video

  1585. ​ @wanderingturnip  20:48 you get it 😏 cool vid bro, taught me a few things about accy I didn't know. Nice one
    1
  1586. This reminds me of a Paul Whitehouse sketch from the fast show "arent bricks brilliant!"
    1
  1587. What just happened? I was getting excited watching a man hunting down bricks! 😂 Love it WT!!!

  1588. Wondering turnip needs quotes on new rear shocks for his car.

  1590. When you doing southport??, the place Napoleon Bonaparte stayed and loved. He copied our lord street as he rebuilt Paris streets later, tree lined, open, big. We really need a positive visit. We've been blessed with lots of shops open, new bars, lights on Lord street all year not just Xmas. Come bro

  1591. Brilliant ‼️I’m from stoke and made a bbq out of Fenton colliery bricks,maybe not as good as Nori but you get the point🇬🇧🔥
    1
  1592. Loved this video....I thought it was just me that loved bricks.... you'll find it opens up a whole new world 😁
    1
  1593. I've just left a comment but I thought I would leave one more. I'd just like to say ,when you mentioned that miniature brick machine in the market? It actually makes real miniature accy nori bricks, i have one as i knew the fella that maintained it and its about the size of my little finger
    1
  1594. As soon as turnip uploads I sit here and watch the full vid
    1
  1595. Weirdly, this is my favourite video yet. Brilliant!
    1
  1596. @wanderingturnip  you both have this really easy going manner about you which is why people engage so freely. Just so relaxing watching your content even though death of the high street was a bit bleak in outlook. Not your video just the fact that the high streets are dying
    1
  1597. You have such great delivery Turnip. Great Northern accent, no bad language, no confrontation etc. engaging character. You're the best at this sort of video, along with Peter Santenello. Top man.
    1
  1598. The barnet is looking a bit dodgy though mate, you need to go to the barber for a trim 😁

  1599.  @wanderingturnip  Thank you for uploading this video, and thanks for making it too :D
    1
  1600. Well done fella, the best video I have seen this year :D
    1
  1601. Brilliant video, I did however check the prices of reclaimed a/n bricks...£1 each on eBay...maximum price was £1.80...😢
    1
  1602. I grew up in London, and got pretty tired of people telling me people are friendlier in the North – but it's true. all these people offering to go and fetch you a brick! That'd never happen down south!
    1
  1603. I love that im learning so much watching your videos.
    1
  1604. A welcome and useful reminder that modern bricks, like so much else are dull, soulless dross.

  1605. What a great video! Brilliant

  1606. Thanks!

  1619. Coastal erosion happens. So does the disposition of new land. The powers of the earth make mans efforts look puny. In the short term you can build 'protection' in the long term you are merely p!55ing into the wind.
    1
  1620. I do like your vids though. Im just a troll. I troll much harder, thats the only thing I got on you, oh an you are like that character from the Fast SHow ho runs around saying 'brilliant' Paul Whitehouse and he wear yellow too. lol
    1
  1621. Britain was once full of craftsmen who's knowledge is now sadly nearly a thing of the past one man who god broke the mold on was Fred dibnah there will never be one man like him that man forgot more than many men will ever know...... It's shame nd makes me sad that soon many men like john will pass n all there knowledge will go as there old trades are replaced with tat
    1
  1622. John's a hair dresser now, and I know what your going to say... that John's dead? But you never knew John like I did, and believe you me that a little trivial thing like death wouldn't stop a man like John living his dreams. Ahem Amen.
    1
  1623. RIP John ❤
    1
  1624. Fantastic video! I've walked alongside the wall and it really is a beauty. It also came in handy to shelter from some torrential wind and rain!
    1
  1625. You and me both, the first time I walked round Fairfield Horseshoe and came across that fantastic construction and yes it is not something you forget, in fact as soon as you said about it, I thought ''I know where he's talking about', thankyou for reminding me of it and to John RIP 😢
    1
  1626. Here's to John 🍺
    1
  1627. Infact how hard must have it been to get that stone up there.. oh wow
    1
  1628. Absolutely brilliant, what a labour of love indeed. If I had the honour and capability to build those walls it would be absolutely worth it just to be amongst all of that nature and the views.
    1
  1629. 4:08 A lovely tribute to John , and I know he was with you and watching you commentating about building a wall Titled 'A Love For Walls '...🙏
    1
  1630. I probably could. Would be my answer. You would need certain attributes physically. And mentally, to do this job. And I believe that fits me. When I was young I was very fit and pretty strong. Started off as a kid working on the farm. Then spent 42 years in heavy construction. Physical bit, tick. Then the mental side. I have mostly worked outdoors. Often in remote places. I am not a lover of the human race. Hate crowds. Was happier as a youngster out in the fields with the cows. Nobody else around. Am still the same now. Happy in my own space. Dog for company. One of the best creatures on earth. Don't need any constant interaction with humans. Doing a physically active job. Out on the moors. Beautiful scenery. I would have given it a go. Winters would be bleak. Not sure what they do then. But most of the year. Yes. A lot of skill in building those walls. But an enduring legacy to a life.
    1
  1631. Awee this is so hearbreaking but such a lovely video! Rip John! Thank you for building your beautiful stone walls on one of the most beautiful places in England. 🌈 i remember my sister taking me to the lakes when i was a teen and thinking, the walls are so cute here!
    1
  1632. What a beautiful tribute to a man I never knew, but through this video, i now do.
    1
  1633. Great tribute to a true craftsman
    1
  1634. Great video & tribute. Walls are the most overlooked part of the countryside and are often taken for granted by visitors and locals & sometimes even land owners & farmers! I’m a full time drystone waller in the north Pennines. We often say it’s a curse not a job. When we have a good summer we pay for it in the winter. Tired to do other work a few times but she always drags you back. if you’d like to come and learn the ropes sometime or even just see them being built drop feel free to drop me a message.
    1
  1635. This was a fantastic tribute not only to John, but all the dry stone wallers before him. Awesome work mate!
    1
  1636. Another amazing account and content David. I am so sure John will be looking down and well pleased that you have put this out, highlighting the wonderful walls and the skills these guys like John possessed, it is such a shame you never had time enough together to do this as a joint thing he sounds a true master at his job and you can hear in his telephone chat his excitement and love for working with stone.
    1
  1637. This was genuinely such a beautiful video. Thanks!
    1
  1638. This was incredible, I never really got a close look at the stone walls of the UK and this video really showed the in-depth beauty of their craft. Thank you.
    1
  1639. "Of all the appalling callings - walling is the most appalling of all." Fitting tribute.

  1648. Beautiful story , LOVE this :)

  1649. What a heartfelt tribute to John. I love the English countryside but I admit to overlooking the beauty of these walls. Now from this video, il always look at them differently and think about John and remember him. Thanks wandering turnip xxx
    1
  1650. Beautiful wall. I have over recent years learned to build them. Very satisfying. Also a good way of getting to know people who live nearby. So many stop to chat and pay compliments. Build one and you improve the visual environment for everyone who passes by. I love them.
    1
  1651. I guess I'm one of the few who did find you through dry stone wall videos 😂 Rest in peace john

  1659. Steel toed boots for all that broken glass…..

  1660. How sad... can't imagine what series of unfortunate steps lead to the final closure and seemingly instant abandonment. 2 things had me worried... was that a another body in the suitcase murder and where were all the zombies!!!!! Felt your pain with the drone in the tree issue, had the same happen to me last year. Could't see mine though but the video was still live. Me and the wife took a good half an hour or more to find and recover the precious little thing but, as with yours, all was well in the end 😱 Great job mate, I loved it, keep it up. Cheers 🍺

  1661.  @wanderingturnip  Because you are sensible... that thing wouldn't pass muster in today's Health & Safety ruled world and I bet you didn't have a High-Vis jacket either 🤣🤣🤣

  1675. I'm not sure about 'last bastion of analogue world' - there's a growing market for film cameras as well. maybe there's another video there...

  1676. Dude please place that Sticky Fingers lp up front so it won’t ruin ( with that metal zip ) any other of those fine first pressing classics you have there.
    1
  1677. Please handle them correctly with your thumb on the spindle hole and your fingers cradling the edge when you slide them out and handle them to avoid finger prints and smudges.

  1678. @wanderingturnip  haha fair I did watch it mate half paying attention 😂

  1679. Great video mate. Never thought that way about the second hand market but i’m gonna start using that going forward when buying records, just wait until I find it in a store

  1680. Move your speakers away from your turntable as the vibrations will really compromise the sound quality.
    1
  1681. It never died, it just went into the background and made a triumphant comeback.

  1682. It's brilliant watching someone get back into Vinyl Records again(or new to it to) 👍 Or other Media you can actually see & touch & own to :D BRILLIANT video man 😎 😎 😎
    1
  1683. I love discovering music through streaming services but the advantages of vinyl are that it can't be switched off or modified to suit woke agendas. Once you've got vinyl in your hands they can't do a damn thing about it.

  1684. If you like the crackles and trip hop check out BURIAL

  1685. Ive no spotify but that tune at the end was excellent.so please pass on a manual thumbs up, and a Merry Christmas to you young Turnip

  1696. Very interesting walk through the City and its industrial history. Cheers mate, was a joy watching and listening to ❤

  1697. Cuttle-ry? Come on WT XD hahah! Cutlery!

  1708. What a fantastic channel. Technically, I’m only really interested in Sheffield, but I think I’m going to give some of your other videos a try. Thank you.

  1709. Very interesting. Your videos are informative and enjoyable.

  1710. Fast Show "BRILLIANT!". Thanks Turnip, another great vid. 👍

  1714.  @wanderingturnip  Lol no you're not. You video's are great. I'm from Chesterfield just south of Sheffield. It's good to see that its doing ok compared to other towns you've been, not as many places closed.
    1
  1715. Thank you for the Sheffield show

  1716. Today I learned people exist that pronounce it “cuttle-ry”

  1718. magic. thank you. subbed.

  1719. "I am The Master Cutler" sounds like a classic movie line.

  1720. Thank you for that, love your enthusiasm.

  1721. Sorry mate .It is pronounced CUT-LE-RY

  1726. My British Army knife was made in Sheffield.

  1727. Just a small point, nice to see your visit documented, but my inner pedant was arouse ... "cuttle-ry"? it's '"cut-lery", you Turnip just saying! Hope you enjoyed your day though.
    1
  1728. Cutlery not cuttlery 😊
    1
  1729. Well, oh, they might wear classic Reeboks Or knackered Converse Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks But all of that's what the point is not The point's that there ain't no romance around there And there's the truth that they can't see They'd probably like to throw a punch at me And if you could only see 'em, then you would agree Agree that there ain't no romance around there You know, oh, it's a funny thing you know We'll tell 'em if you like We'll tell 'em all tonight They'll never listen Because their minds are made up And course it's all okay to carry on that way 'Cause over there, there's broken bones There's only music, so that there's new ringtones And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes To see it's a little different around here Don't get me wrong, though, there's boys in bands And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands And just 'cause he's had a couple o' cans He thinks it's all right to act like a dickhead Don't you know, oh' it's a funny thing you know We'll tell 'em if you like We'll tell 'em all tonight They'll never listen Because their minds are made up And course it's all okay to carry on that way But I said no Oh no Well, you won't get me to go Not anywhere, not anywhere No, I won't go Oh no no Well, over there, there's friends of mine What can I say? I've known 'em for a long long time And, yeah, they might overstep the line But you just cannot get angry in the same way No, not in the same way Said, not in the same way Oh no, oh no no
    1
  1730. The trick is to know what you want, and see if that specific item drops in price, and not to be lured in to a compulsive purchase. So yes and no, it can be total shite - or can be awesome if a particular item you had your eye drops in price.
    1
  1731. Yeah like the old closing down sale banners the high streets had in the 90's. The never actually closed down though. Its just a sales pitch to get people to think they getting a bargain. Today we get the on-line scam 297 dollar online courses that normally are like 5 grand but buy today and save before the price changes. It never changes. Black friday is essentially the same thing.
    1
  1732. I love your content. Have you ever seen the fast show? Your rant about black Friday is Brilliant!
    1
  1733. BS Friday
    1
  1734. I only ever get things on black Friday if I know the original price and if it's never discounted and now suddenly is. I also only search for the specific things on my wishlist, I'm not open to being persuaded to other random stuff
    1
  1735. Got a special Black Friday offer for you on a pallet of bricks, customised to your personalised requirements, sign up today. Terms and conditions apply.

  1738. Couch adverts have a constant sale on ‘all sofas have got to go in their lowest prices ever spring sale’ ‘Get the hottest deals in our sizzling summer sale’ ‘Get cozy for fall in our autumn sale’ ‘Treat yourself this Christmas with our festive winter deals’ ‘ALL SOFAS MUST GO IN OUR JANUARY SALES, you’d be MAD to miss it’ And so on and so on……
    1
  1739. Black Friday, Pink Thursday, Yellow Wednesday, Orange Tuesday, Blue Monday, Brown Sunday, I couldn't care what day it is, fock the retailers, their cheap sh!t goods that are NOT GOOD at all, half the quality, twice the price for poorly made over priced plastic. It's all a con, Caveat emptor (buyer beware). Same here in Spain, you see a sign says OFERTA (offer) €5, lift up the label, normal price €3.95, the only thing here that is SPECIAL, is YOU, about to pay the inflated price for not enquiring. I love a good rant myself!
    1
  1740. I didn’t notice it.

  1741. SPECIAL NOTE READS: been with us for ages, not going anywhere. will accept anything. longterm customers only valued for naivety

  1742. If I don't see someone knock over a grannie for a sub par 32 inch TV then it doesn't really feel like the start of the festive season tbh, sad times 😢

  1743. Its all about self control Wandering Turnip! I don't have an iphone and am fully in control of what I read and believe. Im not constantly looking at a screen thinking Pop Idol are going to be seeking my singing talents and being a millionaire is just a phone call away. The nexttt phonee with allll the gadgetsssss Get a walkie talkie mate!!
    1
  1744. didnt buy a thing i have in the past but if i dont need i dont shop best way of saving
    1
  1745. I go on similar rants but lack a wood to be alone in so I stay home and make a phantom phone call to a non-existent listener & go off on one for half an hour about whatever idiotic thing/person/situation I've had to deal with. Works a treat every time. I ignore Black Friday & especially mobile phone shops...
    1
  1746. Quality, well considered goods, crafted by real, honest people in the UK for a fair price all year round please and I’m sold straight away! The phone shop craziness ties in with your vids on empty commercial premises all over the UK too, I would guess most are franchises, which probably means they scrape by from what each operator allows, so their time on the high street is limited to how long they can essentially overcharge.
    1
  1747. Black Friday Matters.
    1
  1748. I decided to not buy another phone on contract. I saved up and bought a year old phone. It needs to last me 5 plus years.

  1749. I know what you mean. I usually avoid it all but this time I did buy something & it was a genuinely good deal. If you genuinely want/need something, it's worth waiting for. If not, switch your phone off & only buy what you need when you need.

  1758. I'd mentioned to my girlfriend a while back I'm surprised you'd never mentioned fred dibnah before i loved watching him to chill out your videos do the same for me.

  1759. Thanks you for this fed was amazing man 🫡

  1760. My only criticism if your videos is that they're never long enough.
    1
  1761. Brilliant video.. loved Fred, love chimneys in fact I love anything old to be honest you can get a bit emotional looking at the work that went into making these old structures and now they lie awaiting their fate looking so sad and so many people don’t appreciate them. I’m glad you’re here making these videos because it proves that it’s not just me that likes all this stuff 👍😂 Keep up the great work we all really appreciate it

  1762. 18:26 Loving the content, Turnip. Uplifting brilliant ❤

  1764. Brilliant! Blackpool is my favourite place on earth, love the place. Cheers for another cool video.

  1765. Sadly, I don't have a 'smart' car, no internet etc. Sounds like a super app. I could really use it. Great video.

  1766. Great video. Better social commentary than mainstream TV documentaries by a mile! More please...

  1767.  @wanderingturnip  just so long as you take my original advise and go in August lol…be even more clicks for your channel
    1
  1768. What a truly outstanding video. Really interesting and who would not want to go on a session with Duncan. I would. Great work. The best bit was how these seaside towns can be transformed with some innovation and vision.

  1771. I guess the internet would always destroy city centres. I guess if people realised that the easy press of a button was actually fucking themselves and surrounding areas. Hey ho
    1
  1772. Also you should head to Sneinton market- lots of creative spaces and a record shop
    1
  1773. Respect for talking about adding sponsored ads onto the channel. No need to justify it bro - You deserve to earn a living for what you do! Good luck on the house buynig journey, my man.

  1777.  @wanderingturnip thanks I just watched and it was an excellent vlog. Wish I had thought to invite you lol. Thanks for coming back
    1
  1778.  @wanderingturnip  wow, great PR. They have been taking a beating over here for their ultra-woke business practices. Wonder if that will leech out over there or if they can contain it. I used to buy lots of their gear i.e. sleeping bags, tents, etc. 40 years ago, but they took a turn into mainstream, mass (china) produced pop culture fashion items a while back and I gave up. Side Note: glad your channel is working out for ya, stay true to yourself and it will likely stay true to you :-) Best of luck!

  1779. I just subscribed!

  1780. I’d happily watch ads knowing it was helping you
    1
  1781. Another great video. Thanks for all your hard work. And yes I watch the commercials through so you get the credit. You deserve it for all the work you do. Also Everyone remember to subscribe and hit that thumbs up. It helps his channel. Thanks again.
    1
  1782. Victoria Centre is ok. But yeah Nottingham is interesting cos after Covid it really did just decline rapidly. Was shocking to see. You did miss the entire Victoria Centre though which is the most active part of the city shop wise. edit: never mind, you did a second video haha

  1785. Anyone else think that Neo-liberalism only works for the ruling class and that they're slowly eating us, turning us against each other and feeding our children's futures to their children, all while using their enormous financial clout to convince people that it's immigrants?
    1
  1786. EXCUSE ME BUT....In Rainbows by Radiohead, BEST ALBUM EVER.... yes mate!!!!!! NICE ONE! Because we separate like ripples on a blank shore...in rainbows... x :pride-heart-rainbow-philly: P.S In't milk amazin!' Were you referring THE FAST SHOW?! Classic!!!!
    1
  1787. I own a small buisness in Nottingham city center on a second floor due to the insane rents. The book store and vintage clothes store in the lace market is normally quite a busy area and yes the nightclub was shit. I would say Sneinton market was a real missed oportunity for you
    1
  1788. Love the little Fast Show flashback at 20'15" Brilliant.

  1789. I run a record stand in an arcade in portobello road 😊

  1794. YT keeps deleting my comments

  1795. They have a system called small business rate relief which has a limit, around an EV of £15,000 where no rates are payable. It really pissed me off as our shop had a RV of £52,000 so we had a bill of over £25,000. The rents went up astronomically through the 90s and up to 2010. After the credit crunch crash we didnt get another rent increase, but virtually all leases had a clause stating that all rent reviews would be upwardly only, meaning rents could not drop to match market conditions. In our city footfall dropped by over 30% in 5 years, and by 2018 enough was enough so we closed a 30 year business. It wasn't just online, out of town retail parks with free parking played a big part in footfall dropping. Grantham has a large Boundary Mill shop to the north and are just about to open a designer outlet village to the south. Plus several smaller parks closer to town on old factory sites.
    1
  1796. Another place I haven't been. A very mixed bag. You have to wonder at councils. Do they keep all the overheads so high that there are no takers and they make nothing. Or drop them right down. Hopefully get plenty of takers. And ultimately make some money. They all seem to hang on to the hope it will go back to what it was. Dreaming. Regarding adverts. Yes we all hate them. But it is part of the system. You now do this as your prime business. You have worked up to a fan base that makes your channel a viable advertising medium. It is an opportunity to improve your income, and expand the business. You would be silly not to take it. Rent is dead money. Get your house. At least then it should start making money. Good luck.

  1797. 13:15 You sir, have impeccable taste in music.

  1798. Keep showing the shops and a old Google Street View to.show us what was there

  1799.  @wanderingturnip  Lovely! Hope you enjoy mate if you're nearby I'd recommend the Canal House for a pint and the Michelin bib gourmand Iberico World Tapas for some of the best food you'll ever have

  1800. Isn't coffee Brilliant !!!

  1802. Radiohead fan ..and fave album In rainbows .....Thumbs up mate ....same for me .....
    1
  1803. Yo... if you do end up buying a house to renovate... get something rural and not in a city. Believe me, city centers, as you have seen are going to be even more terrible lawless places in the future, you will be miserable. A nice old village property or farmhouse will give you a bit of self sufficiency and community.

  1804. Come to Barcelona we can put you up I'm originally from Nottingham always watch your stuff and collect vinyl 💪🐸✌️was a stone mason so we have something in common 😅

  1808. you are missing the fact that most folks have no money to spend in these shops

  1809. Don't feel bad about doing sponsored ads (as long as they're not for something scummy), it's a nescessary evil of doing youtube as a job. Good luck getting a house!

  1810.  @wanderingturnip  I feel you man. Always great to meet someone who appreciates Radiohead :)

  1812. Worth checking out how Skill Up does sponsored ads in his videos: A 10 second "This video is bought to you by...stick around to find out more" intro and then a minute at the end

  1813. A good return visit👍

  1814. Just come back from Dublin Ireland. And the shopping centre/malls are doing well. Maybe some research needs to be done?

  1815. Love the fast show references 🤣

  1816. Mate, I have watched you from the start and been a sub since then. If u need to sell ur R sole to the devil and do adds then so be it. As long as you progress in life and get the quality of content you want and the viewers want then it’s all good.
    1
  1817.  @wanderingturnip  Haha it’s the stress off being famous matey plus tbh it does suit you really do hope you go from strength to strength such a good bloke god bless you sir
    1
  1818. As an incentive they should give all new business a year free of rent to encourage people to come back
    1
  1819.  @wanderingturnip  Great, look forward to that. The city was fantastic back when i lived there and the nightlife in the centre was brilliant. Great videos by the way, hope your future plans come to fruition...and you get on the property ladder.
    1
  1820. You did a good job there,. and put it across well.. we used to do the Nottingham shops (from Sheffield) but not for some years,. so we do know the place.,. // Enjoyed and subscribed.
    1
  1821. @wanderingturnip  glad to hear, love your videos, and don't mean anything bad to you by it, reading it back my comment comes off harsher than intended 😅. Good on ya for getting involved with the locals. Keep it up, mate.
    1
  1822. Got to move with the times. Make the rent cheaper and the shops will return. Having to earn £1,500 a month just to pay for the shop is ridiculous.
    1
  1823. That George Centre reminds me of the Whitgift Centre in Croydon last time I visited :(
    1
  1824. Great video much needed - Made in Britain. I never purchase from Amazon or ebay now however to be fair to these marketing sites - they provide a platform, what gets sold is a decision taken by others - I include us as the buyers of this stuff ( a lot of which is poor quality ) We have arrived at a point where all is a race to the bottom and I want it now ( yesterday ) you pays yer money and takes yer choice.

  1825. Great stuff

  1829. I have 3 pieces of furniture, one made for me here in Cornwall and two made in different places in Yorkshire. Proper joints etc. Well pleased.

  1830. So uplifting and awe inspiring workshop is Tom's. As a child I had been taught so many things by my uncle, so this new series is like tailor-made for me. A zillion Thanks.
    1
  1831. Great to see a master craftsman so passionate about his work. The High St is not dead everywhere, in our town three banks shut their doors, they are now an artisan bakery, a trendy bar lounge, and a watch repair shop which in my eyes are so much better than the banks ever were, and all the money goes back into the local economy and employs far more people than the banks did.

  1832. funny sack the new kid at 13 mins in 🤣🤣

  1841. Brilliant - really enjoyed this! Great to see that there are still talented skilled makers out there producing beautifully crafted items - in a lovely location too. Loved Spot the dog! Look forward to the next story in this series. ☺

  1843. This video made me happy to see Britain isn't all doom and gloom. Us Northerners tend to be pessimistic most days, but things like this really is a breath of fresh air, so thanks. Tom's passion could be felt throughout the video. Might look into commissioning something from him once I finally move into my own place
    1
  1844. What a great show and that man is so good . We need more people like that man
    1
  1845. You should do an episode on a fashion brand making stuff in our country as I believe we have an opportunity to bring work back to the UK into deprived areas get some government grants and put the stamp made in the UK back on our goods
    1
  1846. What a genuinely nice guy Tom comes across as. Good luck to him!
    1
  1847. I search out British made products!

  1848. Ace, love the video and the concept for the series! It's amazing how much is still made here on the quiet! Also loved your videos on walling. If you ever want to come and have a go just give me a shout. I'm a 5th generation Waller and basically eat , sleep and breath walling and walling culture.

  1849. Beautiful, keep 'am coming. Found this quite moving.

  1850. How about Altberg? they make boots. And Arktis, they make military clothing. Keep up the good work, I think you'll be surprised at what is still made in Great Britain.

  1851. Great videos. Thanks for putting the vids out.

  1852. Top tip for people living in unlicenced HMOs: Your landlord is doing something VERY dodgy and sus, they're not your mate, you can take them to court without a lawyer, the law's on your side and you can claim up to six months of your rent back. I've lived in two situations like that, and it's something within your rights to do as a tenant and you can look up, very easily, whether or not your landlord is licensed or not. And if they're not, you can start the court process. (Granted, you will probably want to move out after this because your landlord is probably going to treat you like shit after this.) You can also do it on houses that you used to live in, so if you're still in touch with a housemate that still lives there, you can do it together and bring in the new tenants on it as well. I had a landlord in Bath who owned a farm plus three properties and legitimately tried to claim he was "living in poverty" in front of a court. And to add insult to injury, he even tried to keep my rent, but thankfully the guy couldn't write or read a contract to save his life. Fuck them before they fuck you.

  1855. A simple one hundred pound cleaning could mean the difference between 10’s of thousands of dollars. If a place smells bad and a person does not get a good feeling in the place they are not going to buy it. You are going to get more money from an owner occupied than an investor.

  1860. Flat # 1 What a disaster. Very depressing. Flat # 2 So small, not in great or modern condition. Yet so expensive. Flat # 3 Very nice area in Nottinghill but flat for 700 thousand pounds and not very big for that price. Too tired to type any more right now.

  1873. Hi Mate, been a local guy and living in Halifax I’ve had a beer in the the first five pubs in your video, all be it many years ago. My favourite of the pubs you featured was the Coach and Horses at Luddenden Foot, they used to do cracking disco’s and people came from all over at the weekends. Getting a pint was bedlam as the pub was so full. The White House at Mythom did a lovely Sunday Lunch for £3 but that was many years ago. I regularly pass these pubs and the memories flood back, happy days. Btw my local is the Ivy House in Holmfield, it’s still going strong. Keep up the good work mate, very informative channel.
    1
  1874. Favourite pub? Belle Vue in Wycombe Great community pub which still has live bands & music Monthly Vinyl night has people of all ages turn up & play music from their collections, to match whatever theme was picked the month before. You’ll hear familiar tunes and stuff you’ll perhaps never hear at any other time, it’s a great crowd and the source of many friendships. Only food they sell are crisps & pork scratchings 😃
    1
  1875. in wimborne small village dorset they have about thirty pubs that are open i normally go there summer times as work near by in cranbourne for summer dont hang around for winters though too cold man ! Loving the shows man keeep up the good work !!

  1876. After that Pint, you should have gone and had that haircut finished - Great video and interesting ramblings about the history of Pubs. Well done !!!

  1877. Love the dressing up for the part. You’re such an actor. Keep up the good work, mate. Cheers from London.

  1878. Fascinating. This is a heritage social documentary of great and enduring value. Thank you

  1879. You're too right about the hard hat and hi viz. Want to stop traffic in a whole town for an hour? Want to steal anything not nailed down? You get away with anything in a hi viz and hard hat

  1880. cool channel, very interesting subjects you choose. you should be on tv.

  1881. I hope Verbs has an ep called 'Doing Words'

  1887. You did a great service to Croydon with this video. Lived here my whole life and whilst it has lost its way, it's still not what people make it out to be. Regarding people thinking it's a poor area...just try to buy or rent here and you'll see how expensive it is. Just on the outskirts of the town centre you'll see the most amazing real estate & wooded areas.
    1
  1888. A lot of the rubbish we hear is the Medias narrative. If you put black and red ants into a jar they will not fight! When you shake the jar they start fighting, so it is the person who is shaking the jar is the one at fault! Sounds familiar to me! Glad to see your channel going from strength to strength, been with you since the start. There is a Werewolf in that little cottage in Jumble Hole valley. I know because I filmed it! 😂

  1889. love your content, man! good luck!

  1892. MATE PLEASE CHECK OUT GRIMSBY!!!! its next town down from doncaster. and also suffered from industrial decline following the cod wars in 1950s - so many abandoned beautiful buildings! im from there and its even more dead than doncaster tbh. and has houses of as similar price. ihave lived away from UK for years tbh. but i always consider moving back bcos the property there is so much cheaper than the whole country,,, but im not rich so i always looked at the cheapest houses and wondered what it would take to sort one out.. and i love where im from, but i also hate it its confusing. but im still proud.

  1901. Might as well just rename the town Tesco.

  1902. Beautiful architecture. 🤮 Are all English towns this ugly? Obviously the Tories have been in power way too long. By the way, the British version of The Office. The Americans are hopeless at comedy.
    1
  1903. Brilliant video fella - my Mum lived there for a few years, I worked for British Gas in Staines in the 90s and there was an office just near that Sansburys that I had to go to. Never a nice place Slough in my eyes but looks much worse now.

  1908. The Office (UK) is superior. They TRIED to do the episodes like just copy em over word for word. So the first episode had the old stapler in the jelly and the were saying the same line "Triffling situation" and stuff "trying to think of jelly puns" It just did NOT work. It was shite. So they rewrote it for the American actors/audience. Its a great show because they did the recruitment really well. So they had the talent to make an office comedy but just implanting the British Office over in the USA just never worked. And ive never known that before to work with any series. I dunno maybe someone can tell me a show that went over line by line and worked without big changed. Like i said the The Office US is a great show but it's just DIFFERENT than the UK one. UK best though IMO. more realistic.

  1917. Hi David wow yet again another amazing very factual account of Slough, and the comparisons to what you have previously witnessed in other towns that sadly are in decline an empty building so quickly becomes derelict as you have witnessed in the houses that you previously have viewed it is no difference with a business premises the decay is rapid.

  1918. Yes. I agree. Chimney should be made of red brick, especially in Slough. Where they make bricks!!

  1919. In the bluechip corporate world business plans don't extend to next week, year or next decade. They extend to 50 years or even longer. If this is the case in commerce what is it in the case of civic and even fiscal planning? This revelation of total rot you are recording as a snap shot in our times was planned decades ago. Yes its like a Steven King novel.....a sense of total hopelessness. Keep up the good work.

  1920. Good video 👍 Maybe try Chorley in Lancashire. It's got everything you like. Mills chimneys (Morrisons) canal interesting buildings ugly police station Astley hall lots of closed down pubs. And so much more. It's Lyndsey Hoyle the speaker of the house constituency.

  1931. Hi Wandering Turnip, Shaman of the Asatru Ulrik The Völve hears EVP spirit manifestations in this video, I've done another respectful paranormal analysis, as we are able to hear EVP spirit audio at 0.25x video speed, first in the almost empty and lifeless shopping center. Language Danish: 9:44 'De forbandede kinesiske Internet-forretninger' ('Those damned Chinese Internet Businesses'), 9:48 'Völven' ('The Völve'), 9:49 'Hjælp os' ('Help us'). Then, right when you pass by the missionary in the walking street, a little child speaks in Danish: 10:44 'Hvor er alle menneskerne?'/'Hvor er du Völve? Hvor er din magt henne?' ('Where are all the people?'/'Where are you Völve? Where's your power?'). A (drunken) male at the same time says 'Al magten er gået væk'/'Al magten, alle børnene' ('All of the power has gone away'/'All the power, all the children'), the woman says 10:45 'Hvor er Völven henne?' ('Where's The Völve at?'). The male then concludes 10:46 'Der er monopol' ('There's a monopoly'), then another male adds 'Hele energien' ('The entire energy').Turnip, keep up the good work! Thank you from The Völve, Asatru shaman and spiritual medium of Denmark and the Lands of the North PS I recommend the works of Ian Nairn, one of the original Angry Young Men, who was recently praised by John Rogers, London's YouTube lost-river-walker and author - literature: Ian Nairn 'Your England Revisited' and Roger's own 'Welcome to New London'.

What is the nicest road in Slough? - The M4 We did The Great Escape in 2003 and even Greggs has gone too now. Maybe poet John Betjemen was right after all, sound the air raid sirens and get out

  1948. I love turnip lad, David is so sincere in his work, he is not puppetised by commerce, he is anti corporation. He is compassionate about urban decay and everything that is bad for society. He cares about urban decay, He is all that a sick society needs, when it is winding down. Go lad, if I could I would buy you your house. thousand kisses.

  1955. The mistake that Beeching and his political masters made, was to imagine that the branch lines were fed and subsidised by the main lines, possibly because they had always been called 'branch' lines. The reality is that they were the routes and the 'roots' that fed the main trunks.Too late now though, the network is a bonsai version of the great tree it used to be.

    1
  1971. It's amazing to see how far you have come as a creator. The turning off the patreon is a big move and a lot wouldn't do that. Looking a this particular video, last time I was in leeds was pre-covid and honestly it was way better then, so all this talk from politicians about levelling up and so on is proven to be nonsense. I love the high street and where I live I have reached out to local politicians and council officials to try and tidy up our high street because it looks so tired and run down and honestly I am hopeful for change but will not hold my breath on it happening. It used to bring so much attention because it had a great market on a Tuesday and Saturday but in recent years they opened up the river (which was needed because of flood risks) but they didn't make a new space for this amazing market that once was. so part of the death of the high street here is not just the rent but the lack of people coming from the surrounding areas like they once did.

  1972. Mate just thought I would give u an update on Eldon gardens I spoke to security today and they have sold it to a private company it’s going through next week so in a years time or so we should see some improvements love your videos I also used to live in Doncaster and enjoyed that video to pal keep up the good work
    1
  1973. hey david. if you think that newcastle is bad. you should check out the shopping centres in grantham and derby . there are 2 shopping centres which has nothing in them. but you can still walk through them. also in bournemouth the arcade is empty apart from hmv.
    1
  1974. Largely due to a push to functions our lives fully online ie shopping, dating, socialising, gaming, nightclubs, metaverse, concerts etc....... what a dull world we are power walking into.

  1975. Just been around your stomping ground of Halifax today mate … peace hall is fantastic … the town centre is sadly most shops are closed … I hope there brighter times ahead

  1978.  @wanderingturnip  Aw, it was almost 18 years ago now, but Eldon Gardens was thriving and I remember us continually driving around the car park until a space was available! Still wearing it! We then went through to Fenwicks!

  1979.  @wanderingturnip  yeah the last 7 were part part of the big market, just checked and they are all actually closed, very shocked at that (and making me feel very old)

  1980. Where you standing on the Castle Keep if you looked over at the Railway Junction that was the largest rail crossings in the World at one time !
    1
  1981. Was thinking about your point that online retail being less expensive and lower risk diverts businesses from renting retail units. Got me thinking that you could have a large retail space that could be shared and booked by businesses to sell their items without being fully committed.....🤔 ....and then realised its called a market. 😂
    1
  1982. newcastle council owned i think hence why its left to rot good video

  1983. All retail centres will be empty soon enough. They can't compete with online retailers.
    1
  1984. It is UTTERLY insane that the mainstream media and government are not tackling this as a matter of urgency. It has such a HUGE impact on the vibe of the country for everyone. It's way more important than demonising refugees/immigrants. If the high street dies and is turned into flats - that is a permanent loss of all that town planning. It will fundamentally change the atmosphere and structure of so many towns, and not for the better in my opinion. Basically all the towns will be one big suburb with the odd supermarket. You can guarantee there are hundreds of billionaire developers itching to get their hands on all this real estate.
    1
  1985. Please go and see the shopping city in Runcorn. That place is a dump!

  1986. Great vid mate

  1987. Since WW2 we've gone from thousands of mom&pop owned shops, to hundreds of high street chains, to dozens of out-of-town mega-stores, to literally one or two gigantic online corporations with a sinister monopoly on all trade. That's why a handful of shady billionaires run the world and we are their slaves.

  2000.  @wanderingturnip  I will feel really stupid now if the comment is for some reason delayed from appearing or something. I said that you reminded me of the Paul Whitehouse "Brilliant" character from The Fast Show. I came back to the video to edit it but can't find it in my comment history or in the comment section. I'm 99% sure I posted it, but you don't seem like the type to gaslight people so now I'm just confused.

  2011.  @wanderingturnip  it’s in Manchester. Not really a desolate mall, just one that feels like you’re in a zombie apocalypse. All hope is lost as soon as you enter. The whole place survives because of its Aldi and Costa coffee 😅 Anyways your videos are refreshing. I’ve always been fascinated by architecture, and the death of the high street has always upset me 😭

  2012. Hey ❤ your videos are awesome! You should go to stretford mall where I’m from 😅

  2013. I absolutely LOVE your channel. It's so interesting and lovely to hear about the history and reasons of these lost towns etc. You should visit Dundalk and Drogheda in Ireland. Both used to be great towns, now a shell of themselves. Especially Drogheda, with the history of has. Honestly feel like watching a Netflix produced show, not just YouTube. You really have a great way about you. Continued success

  2015.  @wanderingturnip  It bugged me that I left this post hanging and I could have written my perspective. I also think it's better to interact here, interactions do help promote your content after all. So here's my perspective of post strike Barnsley, as a teenager. Towards the end of high school there wasn't any talk of work, only "career". We were pushed into college and honestly, I had had enough of sitting at a desk. My exam results were excellent (top few percent) and I wanted to work. Unemployment was at it's highest since records began, with not just mining but also steelworks and shipbuilding being outsourced abroad by Thatcher. The only real option was something the government introduced called "Youth Training Schemes" or YTS for short. You basically did the same work as every else for £30 a week. The company paid none of this and in reality it was a sh¡tty way for the Tory government to force people into work for dole money. At 17 years old I was living in a bedsit in a rough part of town, me and my GF trying to get by and enjoy life on £30 a week. In the background, electronic music became popular as a release for disillusioned youth to forget the misery. I went from listening to 2 Tone as a kid, to hardcore punk as a skater, to dancing until the sun came up. Music gave people identity and unity back then. Of course the Tory bastards always shut down any hint of that. They introduced the "criminal justice act" which had one purpose, to remove identity and unity (I demonstrated against it in London, alongside thousands). All this is well documented on here by people. The neutering of the unions. The battles between workers and police. The subjugation of the industrial north. The music, culture and implications of; 2 Tone, punk and rave. Even the anger against the criminal justice bill. Whether or not Barnsley is on the up, the streets will be inhabited by bland, lifeless consumers David.

  2016.  @wanderingturnip  About Barnsley? Get out there and talk to some of the Gen X or Boomer locals. I'm sure they'll be happy to discuss the place it'll make interesting content for the upload ;) I was a punk back then. Anything I say might incriminate myself or others. Lol. I've been meaning to watch your Blackpool upload. I had family living there in the 70's and 80's.

  2035. In regard to your idea about "Made in Britain", I think a subject for a series of videos is staring right at you every day. How about beer? Start from the end and work your way back. You enjoy a good pint it seems. I'm a brewer here in the United States and so do I. Start with a pint at your favorite pub. Get some great literary passages and poems that you can recite so well from the perspective of the landlord. How are certain pubs still in business while others are not? What challenges do pubs face? We know many of the answers; high energy prices and the high price of everything, but let's hear it from the pub owners and staff. Mix in some great prose and history about running a pub. From there discover the how of beer, from the farms that grow the barley and hops, to the maltsters to the transport involved to finally the breweries large and small. Soon the seeds will go into the ground and the hop trellises will be tended to, go and discover it. Meet the farmers and workers and get the drone going. Then go back in the summer to check the progress and then again at harvest. Orwell wrote about going on "hop holidays" which apparently were no holidays at all, and we'd all love to hear you read more of his words. They don't have to be long and definitive, or earth shattering but rather exploratory. I do know they would be brilliant! I'm sure 30 or 40 shorter form videos from you would be well received and can keep you busy for years. And don't forget CAMRA. English beer is why I became a brewer. I read about the thousands of pubs closing and it makes me sad. I understand why, but still. I will have a few pints today though. Merry Christmas! Tom from NJ

  2057. Saludos desde Santa Fe, Argentina 🇦🇷 Very good vídeo. It's such a pity to see London like this,. They should lower the rents por small shops. I think the pandemic has something to do with it. And also the possibility people have now to buy things on line. High rates are a problem everywhere in the World. Keep doing videos on topics no one does.

  2068. 5:12 pretty sure someone will already have said. But couldn't read all 2800 comments to find out. It was a Top Shop. On street view you can see it was an empty shell in Jun 2022 and since July 2022 it has had that boarding up. So it's been empty for more than a year, nearly 1.5 years. Now, what I find interesting is that they're not trying to market it as prime retail space. Rather a "flagship restaurant space". Probably the owners recognize there's just not enough in it for retail in that location now?

  2070. London is simply pretentious and overrated......

  2071.  @wanderingturnip  not an insult at all I was just a little shocked you were once doing the exact things I am now and watching your content I always wondered why you had came to London. Love these episodes though man I'm in Covent garden so often but those outside eyes really do put it in perspective. Glad to see you putting the training into something informative and relevant. ❤️

  2086. I always enjoy ur london vids

  2087. You calculated that lease extension wrong, no way a flat in Marylebone would be worth only £375k. Where you put the value of £215,000 is where you actually needed to put the market value of the flat if the lease was extended. Hope that makes sense.
    1
  2088. David, I think you'll need an oxygen tank along with your disguise...your lungs will be grateful! 😂 Lived in London for 10 years, and it's full of insanely expensive s...holes... 😵‍💫🥴 Thank you for another great mission! 😘💪

  2097. I nearly spat my beer out over that 600k house price , I don't know why anyone would want to live in London now. You should wear a suit next time with a 2000s blue tooth ear piece.
    1
  2098. Around 17:00 I think you made a mistake with the lease extension calculator … the value you enter is not what it just sold (£215k), but what the value would be if the lease was extended ( say to something reasonable like 120 years) … purchase price plus lease extension would be more than £475k
    1
  2099. 1. It would take double the asking price to fix this nightmare. 2. is terrible but not unfixable a total ripout but seen many of these do well on resales once fixed up. 3. entire rip-out but at least you can get in and view the property either joists or subsidence usually but is a good amount of space for the money but 602 is ridiculous. 4. even with the leasehold issue and the price would be a quicker takeover but would also see about freehold if poss. It costs that much to buy a flat anyhow in London but at least cosmetically not much needs doing. 5. would be a no being you don't have ownership of lower flat if those cracks are subsidence it comes from lower and will have to deal with other tenant as well.

  2109. shame about your chimney .. and i agree our history should be preserved for the future , no matter what it represents especially the buildings and statues that represent the darkest times

  2110. You may not be climbing chimneys but you remind me of the great Fred Dibnah in your enthusiasm and love. Sad to lose such a wonderful chimney.

  2117. Thank you for the video. It was marvellous really. I have watched a lot of your videos because they are never click-baity; they take the viewer on a quest; they are delivered with genuine interest ( chimneys !) and they, in their own way, are culturally authentic - they could only be delivered by an Englishman. From Australia. For what it's worth.

  2133. I find it quite hard having a pint with a curry, get too full, find a nice cup of tea goes amazing after a curry, especially if it was a hot one, the spices make the tea taste nicer.
    1
  2134.  @wanderingturnip  I envy you. Top tip though, Herculaneum gave me a sense of time and place more than Pompeii. YMMV. Enjoy your trip nevertheless. Also, if you get a chance to go down the Amalfi coast, there's a village called Cetera that makes an anchovy sauce that the Romans would have known as Garum. A staple of food back then, even on deserts! Add that to a Tikka Masala and transcend all human experience.
    1
  2135. Fascinating, but the takeaway is older than that. You can go to Pompeii, Herculaneum and Ostia and probably elsewhere and see well-preserved thermopolium that were vital to poor Romans who lived in tenements (Insula) that had no, or limited cooking facilities. It was a thriving industry that probably had it's roots in even earlier urban cultures, but certainly influenced later Levantine and Turkish food culture. Romans were p*ssheads as well, so some fermented fish heads with 10 goblets if wine probably went down a treat.
    1
  2136.  @wanderingturnip  I particularly like how someone like you can make great TV about real life that's more engaging and entertaining than anything the mainstream media can come up with 😁

  2137. Super. Really well made and enjoyable

  2143. Never seen a Turnip as fast as that 👌🏻 great video, mate! Your vids make people want to do something, change something and make people take ownership of where they live. To take some pride in our environment and see the positives.

  2144. Very good video. Thanks for doing it.

  2145. You have done us proud Phil that was a really good tour. That was a lovely trip down memory lane. Thanks for the video Turnip im off to watch some more of your content now.

  2146. Slightly depressing, but excellent video. Thanks
    1
  2147. Great video. Used to do an afternoon/evening out to blackpool as a kid for the illuminations! I have a soft spot for blackpool. You asked if we knew why blackpool is struggling so much. I suppose the stag nights seem to be in Manchester these days, lots of bars and hotels there for football fans etc so good for stag Dos too. when I came back to visit the northwest with my young kids my parents would take us to Southport rather than blackpool for a day out at the seaside. Felt more family friendly I suppose. When I was back in the NW with my kids in a heatwave recently I asked my old school friends for best days out to the coast and they said Crosby beach because it’s prettier and less polluted than blackpool. If people go to blackpool they seem to go down the coast a bit to lytham instead of blackpool itself. Perhaps all this factors in???

I laughed so much throughout this video - you definitely missed your extra calling in life - you can sell me a house anytime - you are a natural when it comes to honesty and I don.t mind do a bit of reno to improve - forget Ikea, as you said and we will manage on open plan living. I miss that part of the U.K. and I'll always will, but you bring it home to me. Thank you.

  2198. Great video, loved this. Congrats on 100K! Well desereved. I think one of the things that surprises me is that, at least whilst you was there, there wasn't cars cars cars everywhere. It looks like its actually good to be a pedestrian there. And realyl glad you enjoyed Nottingham :)

  2203. Knew you were referring to Slough before you even said it 😂
    1
  2204. When you said that Paris has done a really good job of building up in the city, I was a tad confused, as barring the Eiffel Tower and Montparnasse Tower, everything else is lower; which is something I really like about the place. (I actually think there's a height restriction on new builds; sure I've not just made that up). Cut to a few minutes later and you're up the Eiffel Tower facing Montparnasse Tower, and you get the perspective that actually Paris is a lot less built up than major cities in Britain. I take your point that they have done a much better job of making the spaces above the highstreets a lot more liveable and aesthetically pleasing. I do love a good tree and Julian balcony! Great job as always Turnip! Merci beaucoup! PS: If you get chance, go in the lift at Montparnasse Tower, it's fast as and there is a freaky deaky glass floor at the top that you can walk out onto for those jelly leg vibes; if that's what you're into lol

People on the other floors were envious as they smoked in their non smoking rooms setting the fire alarms off several times throughout the night. Should be experienced to be believed!!!!

  2219. I love your enthusiasm Turnip, you carried me with you and I will forever have more appreciation for chimneys. 😁 I loved your reading of the poem at the end.
    1
  2220. You must make the poem at the end 25:21 a short, it’s so poignant. It’s a real shame that original ideas, ambitious or innovative ideas are dismissed so easily unless you happen to be a billionaire, then you can fly in space in a cockrocket if you like!

  2223. I did not realise until just now, when i randomly clicked on this video that I am so interested in chimneys. I could watch a whole series about each one and the history of each mill. The waterways, canals, bridges and rivers around yorkshire would be a must see. I lived in Halifax for the first ten years of my life. Maybe thats where my interest comes from.

  2224. Cheers, mate -- on your 100,000 subs! Good stuff!

  2226. Just finished the video. So pleased it was full of chimneys, please keep up the good work. When you get to your next sub goal, how about a montage video of all the chimneys you’ve visited to date?

  2227. Hardest drinking game on the planet, take a shot every time you say chimney! 😊 cracking video, champ, congrats on the 100k.

  2228. I think you had a "Perfect Day".

  2229. It was getting a bit much for me, you going on about chimneys. So when I heard you say "check out the bottom of that one" while clearly still talking about chimneys I thought it was time to leave before things would deteriorate any further. I didn't quite make it out fast enough so I was confronted with the object of your fascination in full screen on my monitor, and hot damn! That chimney does have a nice bottom, a very nice bottom indeed.

  2249. Thankyou for your great work being watching your videos from the start, love watching your videos and all the topics you cover, always important to showcase what the UK has to offer as there are gems to be found. Congrats on 100k you deserve it and glad its working out well for you making your own path and love the collabs too 😊 And giving a little donation as support and appreciation 👍

  2252.  @wanderingturnip  yes of course 👍

  2253. They've done a really good job at converting the factory and it's nice to see somewhere that hasn't just been left to become derelict. They could use that chimney as a viewing point without too much modification (you wouldn't see it from the outside anyway). Congrats again on 100k subs!

  2254. ​ @wanderingturnip  Have you been to Mezza restaurant? (Legrams Mill BD7 1NH) They serve food from the Lebanese, Syrian and Turkish regions. It's gorgeous and you should def go 😘👌

  2255. Hello Wandering Turnip. I grew up near "The Beast" Lister's Mill Chimney. I turned 18 under the Eiffel Tower though, looking at your last video. You come to Bradford and the sun came out. One year I won the class prize, but all I remember is watching clouds roll over through the classroom window, near another mill. Mind you at that age my gran was getting ready to go to work aged 12. The wealth did not trickle down. P.S. you might visit the Industrial Museum with a mill and machinery that shows how it all worked to produce that wool.

  2256. well done on 100k fella, i remember when you had less the 5k! deserve it mate

  2258. Congratulations David on 100k subscribers! Loved your chimney video (and the Nottingham revisited video too.) Your passion for chimneys really shines through. Also your unfiltered comments about bottoms, bars, and how you've never wanted to get behind something more in your life appealed to my very British sense of humour and made me chuckle! Keep up the great work.

  2259. Ain't milk brilliant 😂 Ooops I mean chimneys congrats on 100k
    1
  2260. Your passion and enthusiasm make chimneys a seventh wonder of the world! I also think you're onto something with the poem at the end. It was a beautiful marriage of the past expressed through the footage of now. More, please.

  2261. The wandering turnip, loving on and touching up big chimneys since 2024.😏

  2262. "Int chimneys brilliant?" As a Fast Show fan, thank you. I did wonder if you knew who you sounded like and now I don't have to ask 😆😆

  2263. Great to see Salts Mill in your vlog as i live opposite and see it every day but take it so much for granted.part of the mill as you showed is David Hockneys artwork,shops and restaurants,the other side of the Leeds Liverpool canal is all apartments. New subscriber here.👍🏻

  2265. Bloody hell, just discovered your channel and I'm hooked. Got my next few empty evenings filled watching your backlog of vids. Love how they have kept so many chimneys in't north when so many have been demolished elsewhere.

  2266.  @wanderingturnip  ah mate, thanks for replying 👍

  2267. wish you reach 200k this year! congrats with 100k!

  2269. Great fast show reference 😂

  2270. I'm very happy for you mate! The reason I got hooked up on your channel is visiting UK is both hard and expensive for many people. with your videos though, I'm able to get a good idea about the places you visit. So thanks and keep doing you ✌️

  2271. Your positivity is a credit to yourself.

  2272. 11:00 "oh my god it's got a wonderful bottom as well... that is 100% worth coming to see. Look at this! Look at the bottom on that... that is magnificent! And that curved bit there... the curvature" - I'm going to edit this into a video of my missus.

  2273. You'll be happy to know though they have preserved the massive chimney of the factory

  2274. Loved the poem.

  2275. We lived in Nottingham for 6 years in the early 90’s. It’s a great place to live with friendly, welcoming people. Thanks for a positive revisit.
    1
  2276. Thanks for this wonderful tour W.T. I'm so glad you decided to come back to show us all the beautiful places you missed on your first visit. Rob is a superb guide and storyteller, leading you to all the places that make me love this city.
    1
  2277. If you haven't recorded the stain glass window video yet, would you ask a question for me.... ask the expert if the stained glass used in the medieval and gothic cathedrals was an alchemical extraction of antimony glass to create the specific colours, as I've read about in it in many alchemy journals, would love to hear if any have been tested ort if they agree with the theory??
    1
  2278. It is good to see this revisit. I am so glad you got the invite.
    1
  2279. I believe that the Guildhall is meant to become a much needed 4* hotel. Nottingham is a bit of a rough diamond and wrongly gets bad press, but it's got many more good things about it than bad, and I'm delighted you were invited and you accepted a return visit to see it properly.
    1
  2280. Great video! Thanks for coming back and giving Nottingham another visit.
    1
  2281. Just subscribed to your channel you’re doing an amazing job
    1
  2282. I love that you came back again to see more. I know Nottingham has closed and shut down places, but it also has some thriving places. It was lovely that you got a guide to show you around. I wish I though of offering that when I moaned a bit at you for being negative😊 I I could have shown you some other spots as well. ~I loved the video and have subscribed to see more, cheers!
    1
  2283. Mate you’re documenting the final gasps of life of late stage capitalism as it immiserates the country, you and your content are more valuable than any of your haters realise. Who knows, politicians in 20-30-40 yrs time might be using your videos in schools to teach future generations how things got so bad and what we learned from it.
    1
  2284. M8 you have every right to tear the country down because it's being wrecked by design and greed great content and ignore the trolling pillocks 🙏👍😊
    1
  2285. Haha I can say now my grandad passed away many years ago but he was responsible for stealing th arrow from the statue and he sold it in a pub for the equivalent of a couple of pints lol
    1
  2286. Top man, coming back to give a balanced view. Nottingham is still overly focussed on students and is run by clowns, but not all is lost, and with some good decisions and investment it may return as the Queen of the Midlands yet again…
    1
  2287. Crazy that people have called you "Negative". Great work you're doing. Keep on keeping on.
    1
  2288. Great idea having a local show you around.

  2289. Great video mate. Thank you.

  2290. Brilliant video very interesting definitely more to Nottingham than people think, that goes for me too. cheers

  2291. Good on ya lad 👦 great show ❤
    1
  2292. I am liking this new style of format. Keep doing a first look like you do then a tour with a local to see the bits you would miss if you didn't know the area. Keep up your great work.

  2293. Lived in Nottingham for 52 years. The fella from the Madhouse Nut Centre was 100% correct. The City Council have ruined the City....wait a minute as we speak surprise surprise they're BANKRUPT.....well I never!.....By the way I'm lovin' this video. Your host was brilliant. From an old fart that has moved away to a small village North of the County, and never looked back. Thank-You.....
    1
  2294. this is fantastic, and i find it really hopeful and inspiring - by showing the boarded buildings and such, you are actually highlighting the life within. glad i found you channel, i'll be watching...
    1
  2295. You are not negative; a guy with your ebullient enthusiasm? No way. Sure, you tell it as you see it and, perhaps, that truth may sometimes grate with some folk. Don’t change, Mate - you’ve got a fantastic channel going.
    1
  2296. this was probably your best video yet, more please!
    1
  2297.  @wanderingturnip  I'd also visit the east coast if I was you, places like Scarborough and Skegness which have truly beautiful coastlines. I'm a bit biased perhaps because I live on the east coast. I never get tired of looking out over the beautiful coastline or visiting outstanding nature reserves like Gibraltar Point. You could then work your way down and round to places like Great Yarmouth, which is a bit run down like Blackpool, then on to Brighton, Bournemouth and Torquay. Wherever you decide to wander, though, enjoy!
    1
  2298. Such a legend for giving the place a fair shoutout, also whats going on with being kicked out of a bloody shopping centre?

  2299.  @wanderingturnip  I think I was making a cuppa 🤦🏼

  2300. I’m so glad you returned 🎉Nottingham really is a decent city, yes there are bordered up places but the history and the people are great. The night life was always fab, there’s great places to eat. I just wish the beautiful old buildings like the old court building wasn’t just left to rot away. The lace market is lovely too. You have my tick of approval 🎉
    1
  2301. Thank you, Sir and Rob, too for this fascinating video. I don't come from Nottingham (live in Germany, originally from Scotland), but I have been a fan of Forest for more than 45 years. The last time I was in Nottingham was 1998, so it was great through your vlog to see again how beautiful the city centre is. Keep up the great work you do ❤!
    1
  2302. Go back for GOOSE FAIR when it’s on You’ll love it - the folk are fab
    1
  2303. I think that sometimes you visit places with a lot of preconceptions and ideas of stories that you want to tell, that aren't representative of the bigger picture. I appreciate revisits like this, especially with local knowledge, as you get a much more rounded picture. I know you mean well, but I do think there's a danger you'll just show the negative sides because those are the things that stand out most - and they also make for content that people engage with.  I think seeking out local guides is a great way to go. Nottingham looks like a thriving city and a fascinating place to visit.
    1
  2304.  @wanderingturnip  haha you basically answered every question and the offer at the end of my video to show you around is completely redundant because Rob was fantastic!
    1
  2305. glad you did a follow up Turnip, I was just about to release a video slating you for the first one lol guess Ill have to do another now!
    1
  2306. I've been watching you for ages now. Love your content and having a local give historical context only adds rather than takes away. Great video
    1
  2307. I watched this video as I live in the superb of Nottingham and am disabled. I very rarely get into the city centre now as I can't walk far. I loved the way you came over and have subscribed so I can go back and watch your other vlogs.😊 happy to help you towards your future goals ❤
    1
  2308. 1st video I've ever seen, and it was great. It is changing some for good some for worse. Ive been here a year and god I love this place. It feels so close to being a central hub with just a few small changes (of which I couldnt mention). Thank you for showing the true Notts, full of character and pride. Hard not to love this place.
    1
  2309. Full respect for going back to my home town and giving a more balanced viewpoint. Great video!
    1
  2310. Hi David, a good one for a future video: Dover. It’s the gateway to Europe and the busiest passenger port in the world. It’s got history (the castle and the caves used in world war 2), nature (the white cliffs) and it also got contemporary issues eg small boat landings and the far right using the town for their own ends. It’s got abysmal town planning and boarded up shops galore, a shit one way system. You name it, it’s got it. Would definitely make a great video 👍
    1
  2311. Some great historical info on Nottingham there. Enjoyed that 👍
    1
  2312.  @wanderingturnip  it’s not really even a criticism. It in no way affects the (excellent) quality of the video. It is just a real pet hate of mine, I get it all the time at work. It’s irrational 😳😂
    1
  2313. Hi pal You’re not negative about the decline of the shopping culture… if anything this will inspire the opionted people to reflect on these sadly issues..😊. 👍

  2314. Rob, get back yo FFTV where you belong 😂😂😂
    1
  2315. What a great host Rob and all the store owners interviewed and thank you for doing a part 2 and agree with the Mad Nuthouse owner and what you are doing David. Your content isn't negative at all it's showing things as they really are and showing the positivity of what is there and encouraging change is all. Made in Britain series adds to that positivity you don't gloss over you present a real picture of everything in your content and that I wholeheartedly appreciate is why I share your channel widely when I can on social media as your message is important :)
    1
  2316. amazing video amazing update. my da is from Nottingham I will show him both episodes and I'm sure he will love it. thank you

  2317. That was so cool. I’m an FFTV subscriber which is I guess why YouTube brought me to your channel. Like most cities it’s a mixture. But you give a fair picture. COYR

  2318. I'm so glad to have found this as I catch up .each day ..Their are many different angles and I like your approach as you look at life from both sides now.Terrific viewing :-)
    1
  2319. i don't think for one minute your videos are negative. you paint an honest picture of things you see... you highlight for all to see...the badly run councils all across England...denominator in all of this
    1
  2320. This was quality. It took me back to some of the really oldschool educational docos. Regarding the negativity accusation, I think part of this is to do with people judging your tone + angle based on thumbnails, which admittedly do make things look pretty dire, but people have to appreciate that's just how getting engagement on YouTube works! The actual content speaks for itself. You'll be asked on one or two news podcasts/shows in not too long I would think, if you keep at it. This is the type of thing the country needs, and it's what politics is absolutely ignoring as you said yourself. Keep it up!
    1
  2321. Love it - brilliant that you revisited and showed another side of the city, but does not take away the sentiments of the original video either.
    1
  2322. Love your videos, and I always will appreciate that you read Orwell's Road To Wigan Pier. Keep going.

  2323. If you wanna see a thriving high street for once come to burntisland Scotland. We must be an exception because our high street has never had so many shops and there are local initiatives to spend locally

  2327. Hugely entertaining to see you tour my student city. The format for this video is gold. Would love to see you do more videos like this where you get a tour with a local talking about the causes of the abandoned shops and deprivation. It's so inspiring to see the independent businesses you visit thriving so we get the full picture.

  2328. Thank you for coming for a second look. Love your content.

  2329. HENRY VACUUM still made in England.

  2330. I have been waiting for a channel like this for ages, you rarely get any coverage on TV, the more we shout above are achievements the better it will be for the UK, bravo
    1
  2331. YES Turnip, we need more of this!
    1
  2332. If you ever have any steel whatsit you want made in uk, most uk fabricators will be happy to help you. just pick somthing more interesting than gates n railings. Morley, will have to research for uk steel, as most we get from uk are heavy
    1
  2333. I remember going for a trial shift here about 4-5 years ago, job wasnt for me (the rubber smell is pretty overpowering) but the people there were really great and the factory was really cool!
    1
  2334.  @wanderingturnip  that would be great! That brand of tweed is world renowned for quality of the fabric. Both for jackets (most common) as well as in other areas. For instance: Goral Shoes (an English shoemaker) worked together with Peregrine Clothing (who brands themselves as a clothing brand that have made stuff in the UK since 1796) and produced some limited edition sneakers made out of Harris Tweed...
    1
  2335. This might be a long shot, but it would be interesting to see the Turnip go north and west to the Outer Hebrides and look at how Harris Tweed are made. There are some older videos about that on YouTube, but none of them by the Turnip.
    1
  2336. The only genuine wealth creation is making stuff. Unfortunately, our politicians and financiers don't know that.
    1
  2337. What an amazing video. These people are the backbone of the UK, not the 'elite' (multi-millionaire leeches) who cream off the rent from all of the assets they have accrued off the back of British workers. Inspiring video, keep them coming.

  2338. love the video, Harwin is another UK based business who makes electronic connectors

  2339. Glad I'm not the only one that gets excited about stuff not made in China/Taiwan/Korea/Bangladesh.
