Stephen and Claire - 2 Zany Brits
Великобритания
Добавлен 21 янв 2022
We're Stephen and Claire, two zany Brits who love random adventures (and botanical gardens!). You may know us as the dynamic duo who filmed and edited Mapperton Live and American Viscountess. We're now documenting our adventures around the UK and further afield, as well as our life running a video production company.
We've been on an incredible Scottish road trip, taking in Edinburgh, the Trossachs, the Highlands and the Isle of Skye. We then gave our unique take on gardens in London, Italy and Dorset, before picking strawberries and baking a cake. More recently, we have been exploring the best (and most unusual) places in our local area, including a crazy and dangerous event in Devon, a place where you can feed hundreds of swans, and the only thatched brewery in Brtitain, still making real ale in the traditional method to this day.

5,000 YEARS of Orkney History in 30 minutes!
The Orkney Islands hold some of the world's best preserved evidence of neolithic settlements, and we're looking at some of them this week.
We visit Skara Brae, unearthed by a storm in 1850, containing precious artefacts shedding light on how people lived on the islands 5,000 years ago.
Next up, we explore the ritual behaviour of the ancient island people, as we discover the folklore and purposes of the Ring of Brodgar and the Standing Stones of Stenness.
In order to look at the next neolithic... thing... on our itinerary, we have to take the world's shortest commercial flight, between Westray and Papa Westray, to visit the Knap of Howar.

THE BEATLES & LIVERPOOL (a LOCAL'S TOUR)
Просмотров 7906 месяцев назад
This time, we're headed to Stephen's home city - Liverpool. The city is synonymous with The Beatles, the band that rocked the world in the 60s and 70s, and shaped popular music for decades afterwards. Liverpool is full of Beatles references, such as Strawberry Field and Penny Lane. We're visiting it all - from the childhood homes of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, to the club where they first f...

Is MORECAMBE really that BAD? We find out…
Просмотров 989Год назад
This week, we head up north and visit the beautiful seaside town of Morecambe. Once a destination for Victorian holidaymakers, the town is now one of the most deprived in the country, which is reason enough to put many people off visiting. We ask the question, though, should it? On a well-known online review website, the statue to Eric Morecambe (a famous British comedy double-act performing fo...

I dont think this obeys sharia law.
I was staying in my mothers house in the Cotswolds and had a neighbour bang on my door at 2.30am luckily I was still up playing my bagpipes
When you said, 'we;re going to find the first barrel', that looked more like the last 'kids' barrel. Next time get to Ottery about 4pm, Claire will probably be able to handle the 8 year olds doing it, lol I was at school with some of those guys at the end, the Tar Barrels is the best tradition ever!

Hi sir love your videos ….. I wonder where your wife and u are actually from ……love from Kashmir
Guys got a giant wang!
Can you name the loge you stayed in as we are looking to go cheers
Hi, we stayed in a place called Tin House on the Isle of Skye in Glendale. If you just google 'Tin house Isle of Skye' it will come up. It's an amazing place to stay. Thanks for watching
Another smashing vid! Your videos are always full of historic info as well as very entertaining, picturesque, & funny. Love you guys!😆❤
There are Barrel runs for Women and Kids as well.
Loved this ! Loved the music!
SeaWorld Australia is going to close their monorail due to not being able to get the necessary parts to upgrade it😢
❤ Grazie
So enjoyed this video! You both gave us great info and it definitely was not boring. It was actually quite cool and I love the music. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for watching, we really enjoyed researching and sharing these places with you. Stephen had greta fun creating all the music, glad you liked it. Thank you for your continued support, our next Orkney adventure will be airing soon :)
Hello, I'm from Brazil and we will go to the the cotswolds in october, me and my girlfriend rented a Caddy converted into a motorhome, I think it is smaller than yours, I will show her your video, and by the way, I loved The cotswolds video too ❤
Hi, thank you for watching, we hope you have an amazing time in the Cotswolds, it's a beautiful part of the UK. Hopefully our Cotswolds tour has given you soon ideas of places to visit. The converted caddy sounds really fun, have a great time :)
Hey a quick question me and my family are in Lyme Regis and are looking for fossils soon what type of rocks should we break into and what do they look like??❤
Hi, hope you have a wonderful trip to Lyme and find lots of fossils. We have actually done a video on fossil hunting in Lyme which gives lots of tips and will show you examples of the rock to look for. It's under ''ALL THESE #ammonites from FIRST TIME #Fossil Hunt in Lyme Regis'. We are defiantly not fossil experts buts hope this helps :)
@@StephenandClaire thank you so much I really appreciate it❤️❤️
PUCCINI...... Mi sono iscritta subito ❤️
Maybe it was referring to DNA!
Great fun as always! Thank you! 💜
Thank you for watching, we loved Orkney so much :)
The stones are moved into place by laying seaweed on the ground and dragging the stones across it to move it long distance. That’s the best working theory from archaeologists here in Orkney.
Thank you for watching and answering our question. I never would have thought of seaweed but it makes sense. Orkney is such a fascinating place.
عمل رائع شكرا
loved the music. and great sites.
Thank you, Stephen had great fun creating all the music. Thanks for watching :)
I have always loved your talent for pairing up music to videos, even back with AV and ML. But these custom songs were awesome. Were they all custom? Obviously the last one was, but I am now wondering about all of them. How does that work? Beyond the music, of course I love the vidoes too - thank you for bringing us on a tour of somewhere I will likely not get to visit myself. Very cool!
Thank you for your kind comment. Stephen adds all the music and had great fun creating all of the music in this episode. It was all created with AI software, Stephen added some of his own lyrics too. It's incredible what technology can do now. Thank you for watching and glad you enjoyed coming along on our Orkney adventures, the next episode will air soon :)
@@StephenandClaireWow!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My daughter has just moved to Mallaig. The perfect excuse to spend some time on Skye, where I saw three Sea Eagles from the Cliffs at Portree, i got some shots of one that drifted right overhead. I will get them up on my computer and if good enough I will share. There were Golden Eagles near our campsite which was a bonus. The Island and the Western Highlands are a wildlife utopia. I enjoyed your video and like your style well done.
Skye is an incredible place, you're lucky you have an excuse to keep visiting and exploring such a beautiful place. It really is a wildlife photographers heaven. Thank you for watching and glad you enjoyed it. Hope you have many wonderful times exploring Skye wit your daughter :)
Claire, my ears are always cold. I love your headband with the ear covers. Please tell me who makes it and if it is available on line. I watch every video y’all post. Thanks, from Texas.❤
Thank you, cold ears are the worst! The pink headband (I think features in this video) I actually brought on a tiny Orkney island we visited, it was handmade by a local and the money went to charity, we feature me buying it in an upcoming video. My tweed cream headband I brought a few years ago at a craft market and sadly there isn't a label saying where it was from. I'm sure you will be able to get one online, they are brilliant for keeping your ears toasty! Thank you for your contained support and glad you enjoy our adventures :)
Hope to see more of you two fun and interesting travels. Also love the songs. (Never heard the dialect songs like this before. Thanks for the translation!)❤❤❤ Maybe some videos behind the scene about your original song recording as well?
Hi, thank you for watching, our next Orkney adventure will be airing very soon. Glad you enjoyed the songs, Stephen had great fun creating them using AI software but changing some lyrics. :)
Wow what a set-up!!! I could get behind "caravan" camping. Especially with espresso in the mornings ❤ Puppy sitting... I wondered what happened to Teddy...
Thanks for watching, our little set up is great for shorter trips. Stephen would love to have a proper coffee machine in there! Teddy is all good, he will make an appearance in some upcoming videos I'm sure. He enjoys holidays wiht Claire's parents while we are away looking after other peoples pets. :)
Fascinating ❤ Didn't know there were Neolithic sites little lone so many there. Wow!
Orkney is full of incredible history, we loved researching about all the sites for this video and learnt so much. Thanks for watching and your continued support :)
Oh wow! I loved your closing song. I don’t thing I caught it before but it’s your own song. How cool is that❤️
Hi Polly, thanks for watching. Stephen had fun creating all of the music for this episode. I'm sure there will be more custom music making an appearance in our videos :)
Loving the sites, the lansdscape and the music!!!🤩
Thank you, Stephen loved creating all the songs for this episode. Thanks for watching :)
Wow. Those places really make me think about what’s important in a house. Shelter from the weather! Put the roof back on and add a fire on the hearth. It would’ve been great back then. We’ve come a long way for sure! I loved your music especially the ones that were translated. They were beautiful.
It was fascinating to see how people lived all those years ago and how well some of the houses had been preserved. You defiantly needed shelter from the Orkney wind and rain! Thanks for watching :)
💛💛💛💛💛 I love this... very interesting!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
❤
Thank you, we loved researching all the history for this one and learnt so much. Thanks for watching and your continued support :)
I love your videos. Thank you for taking us along with y’all on your travels.😊
