- Welcome to my channel. I'm Roaming Ree.
I'm back in the UK for the summer. I thought I'd visit some of my old stomping grounds.
My first stop is the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham. Barking Town Centre and street market. I must be getting old. I thought it was 20 years, but it was closer to 40 years. Whatta mistake to make.
As a Londoner can't believe how much the area has changed and sadly not for the better.

I remember watching Total Recall at that cinema in the days.
Gosh me too, sometime in 1990, I think. Was a great little cinema
I was born on the gascoigne estate in 75. Moved to dagenham in 83, chadwell heath in 91 then Sydney in 97. Visits back to these places make me sad, such fond memories but now it looks terrible and so uninviting
I'm glad u made the move in 97, my regret is I never moved when I had the chance. It breaks my heart to see what London has become.
You got it all in London! one is free to buy crap and not so much crap stuff, one has a choice!
@tonivaripati5951 Looool yes, that's why I always say, London for me is home and the best city in the world.
that market looks better than romford, KB was my ground too 2008-2011.
Miss seeing you in the office brother, you're looking well.
@@Donkjnr bruva I proppa miss the clowns but not the circus 🤣 . Even Romford is gone down the pan.
@@Roamingree thanks for this vid - I left and moved oop norf in 2010, and it's so sad to see the state of London and the suburbs as they are now.
At 9:50 - thats Not a church, that is Barking ABBEY ... used to be my playground 😢 fond memories.
@joline2730 yeah I remember the Abbey but couldn't find any old signs stating or mentioning the Abbey part.
Looking at the prices the stuff for sale has to be utter tat but have to say you couldnt expect anything else .
Worked in Ilford/Barking many years ago and really enjoyed it but have to be honest while we in the North East are seeing the UK deteriorate and we have plenty bad areas ourselves I am still glad to live up here because it looks awful down there.
@jmw-qt2ih you're lucky to have made the move. As much I love London even I'm looking at making the move out of London. It really has become a cesspit.
Imagine the first thing you see coming out of the station is a Coral then a minute down the road there is another amongst all the other betting shops
Fun challenge for viewers is how many can you spot
@NeedMoarRage yes sadly too many and in prominent positions on the high street.
i used to live in east ham and ould go up to my aunts house at the robin hood pub and used to stop at barking and go to the wimpy at the stn
@ShellyShelly-fw8si OMG I completely forgot about the Wimpy. Use to love sitting inside to eat, best days
@@Roamingree my boyfriend used to work in that Wimpy 🤪

Surprising how far down the pan London has gone.
