    I work for F&M and I did not see the windows yet(no time). Thanks to your vlog I can see how fantastic job they have done.
    Fortnum is different than the other retails. Forexample we were never put on furlough during lock down. Fortnum paid our full salaries.IIt is like a small family,
    Love that they still do everything from scratch.

      I LOVE Fortum & Mason. It's a favorite. I was in London in 2017 with my friend and we had so much fun in your store. I use my F & M tote bag when gong to the farmers markets here in the US. I love, love, love, the blood orange marmalade and got two jars and of course they are all gone now. I can order but the cost with shipping is just way more than I can handle.
      Had afternoon tea, it was lovely, as good as I remembered from 2002. All the employees are so nice. We had some items shipped home and the two young gentlemen helping us with the transaction were just wonderful and so funny. We were all laughing like idiots.
      I am so glad that the company is helping their employees during this hideous time. Be well, stay safe, and I so hope to return. I'm not gettin' any younger so not sure at this point, but I've been to London three times and it's just the best and the people are really lovely.

      They sound like a marvellous company to work for, plus I would be constantly poor if I worked for them with all the wonderful things to buy. You must have to be very strong willed.

    How I miss the good old department stores, especially at Christmas. Malls do not have the same feel at all, especially this year. Thank you for reviving memories of the way it used to be.

    As a woman living on a farm in rural Canada, I will likely never see a Fortnum and Mason in real life, so this is a wonderful treat for me. Even though it's Boxing Day, any shopping you care to do will be avidly watched by me. I also love how you show prices, and discuss the items and take a good look at the packaging. Having a RUclipsr film, with commentary, is so much more interesting than an ad, done by store itself and they should be grateful.

    I absolutely despise that stores don’t allow filming. I’m in the US. If it was not for RUclips I would not even know about Fortnum & Mason. And thankfully I now do and have purchased their Smokey Earl Grey tea. I’m in awe of your Christmas tours. It’s reviving my Christmas spirit. 🥰

    What a "gorgeous" Christmas card!
    I've been watching your videos for a couple years now, Hannah, and have enjoyed your Disney visits (I live in Orlando, BTW) and your various London walkabouts, but this is the one that finally sat me down to comment. It's wonderful for those of us who long to experience one of the world's great Christmas emporiums, but find ourselves sequestered on the wrong side of the pond. The unique windows, the spectacular floor displays, the incredible food stalls - the perfect dose of "wish upon a star" Christmas - and all narrated with delightful RP enthusiasm!
    Thanks for the season's greetings!

    The reason the staff ask you not to film is in case you are getting ideas for other stores such as Selfridges or Harrods! They all have the same rules, I was asked not to take pictures in Selfridges in case of visual merchandising theft! Crazy that they have to do it but it speaks volumes about the quality of their displays! Love this video!

    Definitely coming back to this wonderful store!
    It was a big treat for us to oogle
    all the goodies in their
    nice london souvinir type
    packaging. We gave away
    lots to family as presents
    when we came back.
    They were all impressed
    and said it's as if they've
    been there ( UK ) themselves!
    Our walk by Gemaine Street and
    our St. James church
    farmers market
    experience were equally
    memorable!
    Your vlog's amazing
    but no video can
    compare for being
    literally right in the
    center of it all.
    But you definitely
    took us back.
    Thank you!

    Just subscribed, I was blown away at the quality of Hanna's videos, so far I've watched the F&M one and the Harrods ones, they are awesome and make me wish I was living and working in London again, around 1995 I was working as a temp and worked around Piccadilly, Mayfair and Bond Street and I made the most of it, many trips to F&M and a few to Harrods, really lovely times. Her latest video on F&M prompted me to place and order online and I look forward to doing a few unboxing videos of the goodies they've delivered to my humble home.

    Just placed an expensive online order to have shipped to the states. Most special Christmas gift to my family. Everything there is just a special, once a year treat for us. I crave strawberry rose petal jam and rose and violet creams all year! And I hoard my Queen Anne tea like gold. There's just nothing like it.

    Thank you for all those wonderful vlogs you have shared. Though it maybe impossible for us to travel that far as if we have been there and spent Christmas in London.

    Hi Hannah, I am new to your channel & just wanted to say thank you for such a great tour of Fortnum & Mason! You made it thoroughly enjoyable & I loved you being a rebel after being asked to stop filming lol & so glad you didn't :) I am sure they will secretly thank you when your content entices many new customers to the store! I for one as it looks incredible! Thanks once again Hannah & Happy New Year. Looking forward to watching your other Vlogs x

    So sorry I wasn’t able to Fortnum and Mason when I was in London. Must plan another trip.

    I absolutely loved your video of the store. Absolutely magical and will definitely go there when we can travel again. You are so enthusiastic I thought I was shopping with a girlfriend. Wishing you the very best for 2021!
