On an everyday ride out on the bike , I visit Lambley viaduct on my own. As I was filming looking over the viaduct saying “it’s a long way down” a voice seems to agree with me saying “yes” I can’t explain it but never heard anything when I actually filmed it , only when I was editing at home.

As the name suggests, The Crooked House, a historic pub in England’s West Midlands, had a distinctive feature. Thanks to mining subsidence, the building had partially sunk into the ground, earning the unofficial name “Britain’s wonkiest pub.” Visitors from across the world came in for a drink where, if you paid for a pint, your money would appear to roll up the bar. Not any more. The 18th-centu...

From a Chicago millionaire's home to a Birmingham car-test track, and from a...
