I'm a couple of years younger than DM, I still live in Basildon. You'd see them around regularly, nice and quiet lads. I even sold Dave a shirt in 1983 (?) in the menswear shop I worked in and he wore it on Top of the Pops that week. If anyone wants any information on Basildon get in touch.
Yes i am so interested in all for all Information arpund the Group As i Red your lines. I must smile ans its thought on the Video from Sse you... . The seller Was Anne swimdale... Sorry for my Bad english. I hope you understand Greetings to Basildon
❤ Igor, you did it all! What I used to imagine since some 10 years ago you' ve already done: the "Basildon Pilgrimate". As a fan of the band since 1982, when I was 17 and a freshmen at Law Faculty, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Cheers from Lima, Peru. ❤
Hi Igor. This brought back memories! I lived about 3 minutes’ walk from Martin on Trindehay. I’d forgotten Vince’s house on Mynchens. He was the first of our friend group to move out of his parents’ home. He had a flat that was about an hour’s walk away. I used to do that sometimes in the off-chance he was home. He didn’t have a phone.
@@DaveHuxtableLanguages Hi Dave, thank you for your feedback! So I presume it hasn't changed much since. What do you think it is about the school/town that all these talented people (yourself included) hail from? By the way, what was the correct name of the school: St Nicholas School or just Nicholas School?
@ Not much has changed though the school has had some bits built on by the look of it. All the houses on your left as you walked towards the school are new. There was a whole estate there built with an innovative material that started to collapse so they had to demolish the whole lot. It was just Nicholas School, but even many people who went there called it St Nicholas, which is the name of the church on the hill.
Don’t turn this way. Don’t turn that way. Straight down the middle until next Thursday. First to the left. Then back to the right. Twist and turn til you got it right.
Que hermoso video!, sencillo y conmovedor, me gusto mucho como vas caminando de la casa de Vince a la de Martin, se siente estar ahi! Congratulations for you! Muchas gracias por compartirlo y aguante Depeche Mode ❤ forever!!!
This was interesting to see.. is 101 film linked to fletcher then??? Address.. also wow they all lived in horrible poor estates / houses, Dave had a slightly better home mind.. was fun to see this
The 101 film and album were so named because the Pasadena Rose Bowl concert was concert number 101 of the Music for the Masses tour. Alan Wilder suggested this name.
Огромный привет, Игорь! Я также ходил в школу, где учился Мартин в ноябре 2023 года, и нижнего регистра не существует. Спасибо за видео! Привет из Румынии!
Nice video. But the schools and places you show now are nothing like they used to be , I lived in Basildon for 40 years. They were just ordinary kids - Raquels was a dump. Fights every night. I remember watching them there in 1980. Basildon was built because new large factories opened and London over spill. People may also remember Alison moyet was from there as well. The boys used to sit in the fountain as well.
Hi man, can you describe how was to lived there? You used to talk with them or something? Do you remember what was your reaction when the band became famous around the world? Thanks.
@@fqrainy they were ordinary people. Dave was seen all the time with the others around town. I’m quite sure they went to Southend art college . They played at hundreds of small clubs. Including crocs. Ect. They even had to take there instruments on the train with them. I’ve always loved the band. Dave’s lucky to be alive after his drug use. But we all learn ….
Would be nice im sure if they found time to revisited their old schools ..at least this may give the current pupils inspiration to what can be achieved in life .
...at 9:29, that poster on the wall in James Hornsby School, stating: "Together We Excel" ...isn't it a bit awkward? 😆Five people out of six on it are popstars, who attended some 50 years earlier! 😄 Nevertheless cool.
Nice video... 👍 If anyone else is thinking about doing this, please spare a thought for the current residents/homeowners in these locations, especially walking into schools taking photos or filming... Not particularly advisable unless you have permission... As some have already said, (including members of the band), back then when they were still living in this area, it was a very working class town, it was not the best at times, but hey, look at what we all gained from it...A blessing of major talent. I'm sure, (at least I would like to think), that everyone will be responsible and respectful... Thanks
Потрясающе, я увидел, где DM рождался.... Так Винс Кларк с Мартином соседи))) Интересно, а нынешние жильцы понимают, что они в доме Композитора сэра Мартина Ли Гора живут? Забавный кабак, каких тысячи... У Энди дом 101. Прям как Концерт DM 101. Еще у него кот в окне )). Дом продается? Спасибо, Igor R!!!! Ждем еще видео с памятных мест!! Депеш форева!!!
Спасибо большое за видео, интересно было посмотреть на те места где выросли мои кумиры. 🤗♥ Надеюсь пожилую пару которая сейчас живет в доме Мартина не донимают депешисты. Очень жаль , что дом Флетча продан. ☹️
Can someone describe that attendance register? Why each day consists of two halves and what those alternatively angled lines mean ("o" means absent I assume)? And horizontal lines mean different lessons/disciplines so there were 7 lessons each day?
The two halves mean Morning and afternoon (after lunch) when the register, as it was called back then, was taken. The lines meant you were present when the register was called and 'o' meant absent. 'L' meant late. Hope that helps.
No , it's as you said originally, the horizontal lines signified periods during the day where different subjects were taught ie:Maths 9am -10, English 10am - 11 etc
Back then I’d get my morning mark And leave to go into town with my mates (who’d do the same thing).Ditto the afternoon, The teacher marking you present wasn’t usually your teacher just your form teacher. Mine was an art teacher so only had her class once a week😂. I finally got caught when we had the TB and polio jab and we were watching Zombie dawn of the dead at a mates so missed our call up. My Dad was science a teacher a Fryenrs and had Dave in his class. (School is now a housing estate ). I was a couple of years younger and hung out with his brother Peter. I’ll still have a beer at the Mayne when I go back.
@@igorr6921 Благодарю Вас,Игорь, от всего сердца за проделанную работу. Посмотрела,прослезилась,пересматриваю много раз. Как вы думаете,а кто сейчас живёт в доме Дэйва?

Хотелось бы узнать,почему он так подумал. Как я обрадовалась ,когда увидела Ваше видео- словами не передать,и радость ,и слёзы- всё смешалось. Спасибо Вам! 🤗
Basildon my home town. A right shithole. The boys left for California as soon as they could. I left years ago too. There should be more Depeche Mode related stuff in Basildon.
Great idea and great video! It's a rather ugly small town, but so special for us, the fans. Unfortunately, ther is no proper commemoration in Basildon. And the question is why???
I have done that on a much smaller scale. Lol. The strange too video and show you the world in my eyes videos were filmed here in Salt Lake City. I took my goth friends in college to the Motor Vue Theater drive in and we took pictures.
Интересное видео! Я почему то себе представлял Бэзилдон в формате панельных, ну в лучшем случае кирпичных пятиэтажек, а тут не очень нарядные, но таунхаусы двухэтажные😊.
Basildon became a new town after WW2, building didn’t start till the mid 50s, the houses where the boys lived would have been built in the early to mid 60s.
@@asiya6316 я как раз был совковым подростком в конце 80х, жил в городе, где в названии есть слово "завод", кругом строили панельные пяти и девятиэтажки, куда из двухэтажных деревянных бараков расселяли счастливых пролетариев, соответственно, какую еще картину могло нарисовать мое воображение? 😄
Ничего мелкобуржуазного там нет. Город был и остаётся городом рабочего класса с жильём и школами сильно ниже среднего уровня и с самым высоким уровнем преступности в Эссексе.
The British, when we look at how you live, it becomes sad at heart. It's gray and uncomfortable. And these are Depeche mode areas.. We have a hundred times better in Russia, so you strive to join us. This is absolutely understandable. You just don't understand it, you're used to the darkness of your streets.
Благодарю за знакомство с городом, где родилась любимая группа.🌺

Exactly!
Who's Murial? ....oh you mean mural!

@@janeperkin5286 ha ha. Yes mural.bloody spellcheck. Statue even better
I have been asking myself why there is still nothing done
Nice video Igor! You walking from one house to the other + the school kind of made me feel like I was walking in their shoes🖤
Thank you for the trip, Igor! Despite the bad weather...
Greetings from Brazil!
Glad you enjoyed it! The weather was not so bad either!
Que buen vídeo, que maravilla recorrer y visitar los lugares de orígen de DEPECHE MODE, excelente...!! 👍👍👍😃😃😃🇨🇱🇬🇧
