95% what a crock lol

I was born after the war but can still remember food being in short supply, you were taught back then not to wasteful with your food. My grandparents home in Sterling St off Anlaby road was destroyed during the war, they were safe in a local airaid shelter, what must have gone through people's minds in those shelters wondering if they would survive to hear the all clear siran sound.

My dad was firema

Thank you for making this makes me proud to be from Hull

*THERE IS STILL TIME TO ACT!!!!!!*

IT'S ALMOST IRREVERSABLE? 😭NOOOOO OUR PLANET IS DYING😭😭😭

(hugs tree) I AM MOVED!!!!

After serving 24yrs in the British Army, 1 P.W.O, I settled in Germany, ironic eh, I was brought up down Gordon Street, Boulevard, Hull East Yorks. A very well put together and informative film, well done and thank you. May your Grandma R.I.P ................ X

Have just watched your great video on Onegreenplanet and congratulations on the production. I was born in London in 1943 and thank you for all your good thoughts about people at that time. My parents and neighbours all did their bit, all rallying together to help each other out.

Hull was the bombed city outside of London. Though it hardly seems to get mentioned. 95% of buildings were damaged and 152,000 out of a population of 320,000 were made homeless.

Hulls never recovered from this where did the money for the rebuild go. 🤔

Absolute Cinema

What was the date of Hull being bombed for the first time? I visited Hull in 1961. My uncle lived there.

I was there at Brentford..

Bill is the best character

The lad in the first seconds of this extraordinary film has Lisandro Martinez knees ffs.

HAHAHAHAHA DAVID WINS😈

Hi please can i share this on my Facebook page if i credit your youtube channel and credit you?

Awesome mini Doc! Brought back some memories!

How is this a great escape when they survived comfortably in the end by 5 points, (6 points if you include goal difference), and there were two teams even closer to the relegation zone than Hull, and they also got out of the drop zone after 29 games out of 46?

What an upgrade is that

Climate hero🎉

Enjoyed that 👌

My Dad was a Air Raid cycle messenger boy (15) during the Hull blitz- and got a commendation. His job was to report back on the location of fractured gas mains, incendiary fires etc. He had a cast iron bell shaped shelter to hide in if it got rough. He never spoke about it much. My Aunt and Uncle were bombed out of their house - he was on leave from the Merchant marine (torpedoed twice). I remember during the late 50's as a child visiting my grandparents in Hull and seeing so many gaping holes in the rows of houses. The church at the end of the road was just a shell. I didn't know that the bombing was kept secret in the early years of the war.

Well done lad smashing documentary !

Dropped you a sub, you definitely have a bright future on which ever platform you choose. Wishing you all the success at Hull university

Goodness me. That was a very brief resume of the whole case. I remember doing some work at a Hull solicitors office where I was showed a room containing all the files on this case and I can tell you it was eye-opening. Thousands of files containing interviews, statements etc etc all of which contributed to the present day success of said solicitors as the legal aid bill was apparently immense. I knew Peter Dinsdale as a kid and I can tell you he had a horrible life. His mother was on the game and treat him appallingly and pretty much everyone in the neighbourhood had Daft Peter down as a figure of fun to be ridiculed and abused. I knew the Ellerington lad who he allegedly killed and I knew of the Hastie clan who were a bad bunch to say the least. The solicitor told me that he didnt have Pete down as an innocent party but he also wasn't guilty of most of the 'arsons'. He believed that the police DS allegedly goaded Pete into confessing to literally anything he was asked to by being nice to him (nobody else had ever been nice to him!) and by getting him to think he was 'helping them'. Not difficult with a daft lad. There was plenty of conflicting evidence in the Hastie fire with eye-witness statements of a car arriving and leaving the scene and if you were looking for someone with a grudge against the Hasties you would have a list as long as your arm.The fact that he confessed to a major fire at Wensley Lodge when it was later proven it was an accident lends credibility to this.He was alleged to have cycled from Anlaby Road to Hessle with 5 gallons of petrol, started a fire and cycled back. The lad could hardly walk with his gammy leg never mind ride a bike 6 miles. Basically any fire that had taken place in Petes lifetime he was blamed for and he accepted it willingly because he knew no better. The solicitor told me the police DS was the biggest criminal his opinion by corruptly getting Pete to confess. I understand he was promoted and awarded an MBE or something. the true extent of his crimes will never be known and could be as low as zero or could be all of them but there should be much more investigation done.

You go lad get that story told

Fantastic documentary, Excellent work! Very well made ☺️

Greetings from Essex! Oh wow! What a wonderful and truly inspiring video!! .... with Yorkshire Great-great grand parents, great-grand parents, grand parents and parents, I think of myself as a true yorkshireman 😊 ..... I grew up in Hull off Endike Lane and went to Endike school... so I'm a proper born&bred "Hull Raiser" 😉 I grew up hearing stories of the Hull blitz from my grandparents but until watching your video had no idea of the severity of the bombing or the importance Hull played during the war. Your video has rekindled the proudness of my heritage!! Thank you so so much for posting❤ 04:20 PS I remember eating a sausage roll sitting outside BHS (where the ship murel is) whilst my mother was shopping inside

RIP Christina 🙏🏼 (You did her proud)

Loved this podcast guys! However, the part where Rowan goes on a 5 minute tangent saying Ted Bundy did nothing wrong was pretty weird guys, maybe try something else for the next episode!

Great Video ty for taking the time to do it

My dad dug out many of the bodies from those ruins in the Town Centre. Mam told me of an occasion when dad returned home after a nights work recovering folk, that he screamed at her to remove her stocking. He then told her he had just pulled out of the rumble a pair of legs with the same coloured stocking on. You cant imagine what our families went through in those dark days. Being bombed night after night and not being able to fight back. My Uncle paid them back. He did 3 tours in the Halifax bombers and survived.

My parents and their families were raised in Hull. My mom and aunt told us stories of their experiences during the war. Fortunately, no one in the family was killed.

Tyler, thanks learnt alot from this, when I move to Hull from London back in 1986 I was amazed how much bomb damage could still be seen. Hull people are so resilient. Well done.

Thank you Tyler for sharing your video. I was born in Hull but now live in Plymouth. Xx

Loved it Tyler… thanks for spending the time to make it x

I was born in 1939. One of my earliest memories is being at the door of the air raid shelter as the adults tried to work out where the bombs had fallen using the fires from imcendiaries as a guide. My dad was a shipwright, worked during the day then manned the anti aircraft guns at night. I live in N.Z, been back to Hull five times, still feels like home.

You’ve done an amazing job covering this subject, proud of you mate!

This was lovely Tyler. Thank you for sharing this with us. I am sure that your Grandmother would have been very proud of you. I remember stories from my own parents too, especially as they both were evacuated as young children.

Hello Tyler - such a good subject. Having left Hull in 1985 - I have always regarded it as my home, and I would never hear anything negative said about the city. We are hoping to return to my home town this year. I wanted to share my story of my grandfather and my father and a snippet of their war experiences. My grandfather was working on the docks as a welder, repairing ships during the day (he was in his 50s during WWII), then fire fighting during the night. He was called up to return to the shipyards even though he had his own coal business, which his brother took over. My dad, at the age of 16 was at sea, as a cadet, following his naval education at Hull Trinity House. He was taken prisoner on the pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee following his first encounter with a torpedo! This was the Battle of the River Plate when Captain Hans Langsdorff had successfully sunk many British ships. Luckily for my father, the Graf Spee, having received damage, limped into the neutral harbour of Montevideo, Uruguay. All the prisoners, including my father, were released and subsequently given the freedom of the town. This was in 1939. During a voyage in 1941, the ship was torpedoed during the battle of Denmark Strait. He then spent 10 days in an open boat where he suffered among other things frost bite. The life boat was eventually picked up by a Royal Naval ship who was chasing the supply ship (Prinz Eugen) to the infamous battleship Bismarck (Bismarck sunk HMS Hood). It was sheer luck that the naval ship came across the lifeboat as they had strayed into waters far away from the original battle. The crew was then taken to hospital in Iceland (he was recovering for six weeks). My grandparents believed that their son was lost at sea. He appeared in the Hull Daily Mail as well as a couple of national newspapers when he eventually turned up and became hot news for the papers and morale boosting for the readers. The war office had not informed them that he and the others had been found and he turned up at the house on crutches, knocked at the door (obviously lost his keys!) and when my grandfather opened the door he quite literally swooned in shock. Meantime, my grandmother was in Burton-on-Trent, having been evacuated with their 14 year old son (my uncle). My grandfather wanted them away from Hull due to the Blitz. When my father arrived at the farm the next day, he was told that his mother and brother were at the hospital. My uncle had been working in the farmer's field and was mauled by a bull was very badly hurt. He eventually made a full recovery aided by his brother turning up alive and well - but that's a different story. My father was a captain in the Merchant Navy for most of his working life.

Thank you for doing this Tyler. My Dad was 9 during the blitz and he told us quite a few shocking stories of his and his family's experiences. They lived at the time in central Hull in Londesborough St.
