Hola from Queretaro. God will take care. 82 and trust God. A

Wow I stayed at the Grand and never knew xxx

Beautiful

With adverts every 5 minutes, this video is unwatchable

Fantastic presentation! Thank you so much.

Fantastic documentary. Amazed by the complaints about the sound. I had no problem hearing every word. Perhaps some of the viewers are more used to Marvel movies.

A great film telling the story of the line,I am on holiday at sandsend a short distance north of whitby west cliff Station,we visited Ravenscar today and looked over the remains of the station there.

Just celebrated my 50th wedding anniversary yesterday, we went to Whitby for our honeymoon. A jolly good time was had by us both. I was 18 my husband was 20, so very young. We are going on a cruise soon to the artic circle, to seee (hopefully) the northern lights and whales. Still love Whitby very much, my 5 kids and their families do as well. I remember i sent my mam and dad some kippers, not sure if you can still do that. Had many happy holidays and days out, hopefully many more.

The clearest, best guide to this area and its relevant history. Thank you :)

Now that was sublime, thank you

Unfortunately the crowing in the background practically obliterates the reading and tales so interesting of this family.

Thanks for this ! Such a wonderfully presented introduction to Whitby. So happy to have visited recently.

Music very loud although beautiful but distracting

Beautiful. Thank you.

Lovely place. Way too many and personal memories to decscribe. Visit in the winter, not as many of us tourists. Such an atmosphere, sea rushing up the dock is fantastic.

Thank you ever so much, been a visitor for over 40 years, but learnt many new facts. Brilliant !!

This was a beautiful film, made both carefully and with affection. It had particular resonance with me as I grew up alongside the old S&WR. I am familiar with the line history thanks to the work of Robin Lidster but this visual presentation really brought things alive. I particularly enjoyed the interviews with the owners of the Cloughton, Robin Hoods Bay and Hawsker stations. Lovely to see what has been made of the Cloughton station post closure, see some of the original fittings at Robin Hoods and hear from a former line worker at Hawsker. Thank-you ever so much for making this gem of a film. My father who is now in poor health really enjoyed watching it as a way of 'getting out of the house'.

hi, great video, quite inspiring, thank you

Thank you for this really lovely heartfelt and detailed video. Very moving true story 💕

I was at the parsonage a couple of years back and Ann dinsdale was behind the counter serving at the shop and signed my book She is amazing and has the knowledge of the brontes She certainly knows everything and such a calm lovely spoken lady ❤ Becky 🇬🇧 xx Thankyou anne dinsdale it was a fantastic honour for me to actually meet you 😊 ❤

A town that thinks a union jack is it's national flag. An english town with no english flags. Nothing English for sale in its shops. All union jacks.

The Roman Tower has to have been where it was visible to the others in the system, both north & south, so has to be on higher ground that in the reconstruction picture in this video. Try further south & higher uphill, until Scarborough Castle, Filey Brig, & Flamborough Head are each in line of sight, but separated from each other, so that indicators on the Ravenscar tower could be made to distinguish each from the others to make signalling between them viable. Also others have to be seen from here to the north, probably one at Whitby, recorded as 'the bay of the lighthouse' by Bede, intermediate stations may be required to complete the system, possibly as far as Teesmouth, or even the Tyne. Even inland towers may have existed, as one seems to have been found at Staxton Wold, inland of, & visible from the Scarborough Station. It is possible that the signal/warning system reached as far as Malton and/or other inland Forts, to bring large scale aid to the coast when there was a raid. The foundations of a Signal Station were not found on the site of the hotel, but some stones, somewhere in the area, including the one bearing the Justinianus inscription. Thus it is not clear where the actual station will have once stood, but it is to be looked for in the best place for suitable sight lines to make the system viable. Without knowing the total number of stations in the system, it is not true to say that Ravenscar was the central one of the coastal group, for surely there had to have been one on Flamborough Head, that could relay messages to the Naval & Army base at Brough, as these stations had as much to do with Roman naval patrols as enemy invasions. It is also not true that the Roman occupation was a period of constant difficulties. In fact after the initial conquest long periods of peace followed, with only rare & occasional difficulties, usually at times of regime change & inter Roman disputes. Barbarian raids did not become a great problem until the fourth century, & again these were periodic, not constant. Security in Britain was maintained pretty well for most of the time, & indeed the fourth century can be shown to have been among the most prosperous eras , with occasional support from some further Roman forces of the mobile field army crossing the Channel to restore order on particular occasions right up until the very end of the century, under Stilicho, who left the Province in peace. It was troubles in mainland Europe that caused the removal of Roman forces from Britain, not things within Britain forcing them out. Even then only the most useful troops will have left, which means the mobile, mostly by this date, mounted Legions, & any noted as Comitenses. The bulk of Roman troops in Britain would have been the Limitani, that is the defensive forces, manning the Auxiliary Forts spread around the country, & the stations on Hadrian's Wall, & probably including those in old Legionary bases such as York. These mostly immobile units would have been of little use for the continental wars, & would in any case have been very difficult to persuade to leave a Province where most had been settled for two or three centuries. Even the upstart Constantine 3rd will have been unable to move such troops abroad in his campaign for Empire. In any case he will have wanted to protect his back & the Province of Britannia, as a place to retreat to if necessary. As it was, after several years of success, he was defeated & killed, & at this time any troops from Britain that were with him will have been prevented from returning to the Province. Then continuing troubles in Europe prevented Rome from sending a replacement administration to Britain, so the Province became detached from the Empire, permanently as it turned out, but by default.

for someone who will probably never see Whitby i think you did a very fine and thorough job. I was watching a different documentary on schooners (don't ask me why...my interests are as random as dandelion fluff on the breeze. never know where they'll land!) in the comments someone mentioned how sails are becoming more appealing thanks to the whole climate change thing. I hope it continues to catch on, maybe towns like Whitby will see another resurrection in popularity as a result.

Sarah is a divorced woman and has a divorced woman's title as she is not a member of the Royal family. Highgrove Orchard's profits all go to charity.

I found this evocative and rather heartbreaking and beautifully presented,and also very moving. been a Yorkshire lass, I've always had a fascination for the Brontes and have been to Haworth many times.

I love Robin Hood’s bay. I have many happy memories of it

I think the origin of Grape Lane being Grope Lane is a bit of a stretch.

Fascinating, thank you.

Charlotte sounds horrible so jealous

I understand the reasoning for Anne being buried in Scarborough....she did love it there, and another funeral so soon after the two recent ones would be hard on Mr. Bronte, but it kind of sounded like Anne wanted to be home for her passing. I have always found it sad that she isn't with the rest of the family. I think it would be nice if Anne could be moved and they could all be together again. Just mho.

Boring whitby video I've ever seen

Great video many thanks ❤ love robin hoods bay

Farwath was our outward bound centre from Sir William Turners Grammar Schooljust shows how old I am because the school no longer exists and Farwath looks very up market now

Heartbreaking, especially in light of having read 'Agnes Grey',& 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall'. Thank you.

Please add captions. Trying to listen to soft-spoken, accented English through background music and loud crows was not worth the effort.

Nice but the room interiors are boring

Wonderful video.

Very very moving. Thank you so much.

Fantastic video ❤

A scenically filmed programme you definately should try to get BBC 2, BBC4, to show. Relaxing to watch. Very pleasant!

The voice over narrator is speaking in such a quiet voice it was a challenge to hear. What a shame.

thanks very much a very informative video of one of our favourite places keep up the good work.

Fantastic

My best friend, Wonderful video dear. I enjoyed watching. Hope to see you soon...
