• Boudicca & The Great B...
A new style of video. Let me know what you think, and if you'd like to see more.
I rather enjoyed making this video. It was a real change of pace from the usual long form documentaries I produce. Would you like to see more videos like this one where I visit historical sites?
For those hardcore history buffs out there- don't worry. These ‘History Time Live’ videos won't detract from the usual long form documentaries I produce.
Those guys take months of research, writing, and editing and rest assured I won't ever stop doing them as long as I can work.
I'm off to Denmark tomorrow to go Viking, and finish off a bunch of scripts.
The next ten documentaries are going to be the biggest and best I've ever produced. I can't wait to share them with you guys.

I loved this, great video. Would definitely be interested in watching more content like this from you.
I like the idea of you visiting historical sites, I've been in a few in southern, central and eastern parts of Europe but I've never been in England. UK is a little to expensive for my wallet.
Great job!
I am now AMERICAN .. but from my name you can SMELL Wiltshire/Normans/etc
This video is merely GOOD .. you really give no idea of what those forests looked like
RUclips logging in Washington State history ... I went Patreon because of the effort and INTENT
Do better I support you better
Ha. My comment was to be "A nice change of pace" until I read yours. Lets see more of these.
7:36 That tree "saw" William, the Conquerer come to England. Incredible
Not sure if William saw this tree but many other royals probably did visit here. Nottingham was the capital city of England in these days and Sherwood forest was the playground for the rich and wealthy. King Henry II and his sons Richard Lion Heart and King John built a hunting palace in Clipstone only a couple of miles away from the major oak and they regularly used to spend time hunting in Sherwood Forest.
@@savvageorge He isn't saying that William saw this specific tree, more that this tree was alive around the time of William.
Is incredible indeed.
Please do not use the "s" word regarding this majestic 🌳!!!
And the Fortingall Yew remembers both the coming and going of the Romans...
This was a good change of pace, dude. You should definitely do more stuff like this in the future.
Glad you like it. Thanks very much. More on the way :)
I was born and bred in that area. I used to go mountain biking all around Sherwood Forest, Edwinstowe and Sherwood Pines. This video made me all nostalgic. Cheers mate!
I was mountain biking the other day in the pines. Fell flat on my face into the muddy track after riding headlong into a tree stump. Great times!
@@HistoryTime That sounds about right! I've had many crashes round there especially on the technical tracks off of the main fire roads. Good times indeed!
When I was a kid you could walk inside the Major Oak and it was all still plain woodland with no man-made paths and such spoiling the look of the place. Necessary precautions but a pity. Wonder what they'll do when the tree finally falls down, especially when they cut down so many oaks everywhere else. We lost dozens near my town (not far from there) in the last decade alone, some because idiots kept wrapping their cars around them, many oaks that were centuries old are just sad stumps now.
Well who ever doesn't remember the big dip is not true edwinstowe
I really love your narration and editing.
Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it!
Finally, the short video I have been begging for for months
Thanks for watching! Yes there are going to be some shorter ones alongside the longer ones :)
yay!@@HistoryTime
Just came across this wonderful historic story by accident. I love this! Thank you for sharing. Curt. Hillsboro, Texas. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Loved it! Wish I could give a 100 thumbs up for this one. Liked the way you put the maps in as well.
Thanks so much!
Imagining a forest filled with trees like the Major Oak makes you understand the stories of "haunted forests."
Awesome video.
What a wonderful video. Please do more like it. Thank you for helping us to connect with our ancient "roots" :)
More on the way my friend
I love this change of pace. It's something new and refreshing.
Thanks very much! I loved making it :)
@@HistoryTime Anyone would. You went for a walk and made a video about this insteresting place. It's a win win situation.
those oak trees are awesome
Absolutely. They seem mystical when seen up close.
Brilliant concept for a video. It would be great if you could do more of this, travel to the sites where the historical battles took place.
Thanks very much. Great idea!
It's great when you go to the places spoken of. It really brings it home. Thank you
Yes, I would love to know more about the ‘Bodger’ more specifically. The man or rather vocation that did preserve or rather help along these old forests of the old. Their disappearance has been a fascination of mine now for some time. The woods fell and the bodger went into oblivion. The makes of a truly great bit of history. It is past due time for the return of this man of the woods. Without him, these woods may NEVER return to their once glory. A feat yet not impossible in this day, and one worth the undertaking. Blessings
Yes, more like this! It’s so much better than anything history-related you can find on television these days. I don’t want celebrity hosts and glitzy graphics, I just want calm explanation and informative screen titles. Your videos always deliver.
Thanks John really appreciate the feedback. Good to know I'm going in the right direction!
I enjoy all your history shows. Looking forward to seeing the next.
I really enjoyed this video. It is great to see what the discussed regions currently appear. Thanks for all your hard work!
This video, like all of your videos, was brilliant and entertaining. We are very fortunate to have this resource. Thank you!!
Thanks very much. Appreciate your kind comment
I loved this video for its 'then and now', and would love to see more of this type. Thanks for making it.
This style of location history is amazing and unique, i personally would LOVE to see more - maybe on the city of Oxford. Amazing job
I would very much like to see more videos such as this one. I enjoyed every moment and will most certainly view again. Encore!
I really love ancient trees and forests - and history as well. Old history. This is a great video. I would really like to see you go more in depth on Sherwood Forest itself, and maybe some of it's former denizens also. The Druid part is fascinating. Thank you for your work.
Much more to come on the druids and the Celts! Thanks very much for watching !
Very , very interesting. As an American fascinated by England’s history, I cannot wait to see more videos like this.
So happy to see a new video! Thank you! Love your channel, it's my favorite RUclips channel.
Thanks so much Rob. Great to hear you're into the channel! Really appreciate your support.
Wow, absolutely fantastic video. Thank you for all the hard work on this it was an enthralling watch!
Thanks for sharing your love of history with us. These videos really do capture my imagination of older eras
Okay to be honest I have been subsrcied to your channel historytime for a while but I have been inactive recently with your videos. However I now will be glued back to watching this new documentative series. I love the UK culture and history so this is a double win for me!
I really appreciate that mate. Thanks so much. More on the way :)
This video was awesome, keep up the good work. The live format is great
Thanks very much! I shall have to make more
So cool! Yes, definitely do more content like that!
More on the way :)
Great video with a great story and history into the region. Thank you.
EXCELLENT VIDEO! I LOVED HEARING OF IT'S PAST WHILE SEEING THE PRESENT. BEAUTIFUL
I shall have to make more! Glad you liked it
What can I say my friend?
The trees, the charming roads and villages? All were memorable views of a place and time long give, but still hanging on to small remnants of itself. It gives you a glimpse of something much greater. Those forests and woods must have been awesome. Watching from the State of Georgia in the US, I get you captured so many things. Being a fan of English literature it reeks of many stories and tales.
It also captured the feeling of Tolkien. The adventures written of the great ring quest captured my imagination in 1972. I grew up here in the South playing every sport and game, but my imagination lived in English forest and field. Pathetic isn't it?
Thank you for the presentation. May God bless you and yours.
This is great. Thank you. Have always had an interest in Sherwood Forrest since the TV shows of the fifties.
The pace of your narration is relaxing and editing and music perfect. This one is especially historical to me, I am a descendent of the separatists from scrooby that fled to holland and then to America, know here as the pilgrims of plimoth.
Really enjoyed this ! Like the way you use maps too. I like to see what it is I am learning about. Keep up the good work.
fantastic video...really like everything the channel brings..great stuff
Thanks very much! More on the way !
Excellent video! Very much enjoyed the music and subject matter. Thank you 💜👏👌
Beautiful video, keep more like this coming.
Enjoyed the vid. Hypnotic! I was fortunate enough to see the Major Oak in 2000.
What an excellent video. I really enjoyed it. Thank you! :D
Thanks very much! More on the way
EXCELLENT! LOVED it. YES, more please! Thank you so much! A real "brain freshener". Like a mentos for the mind!
Thanks very much! Really glad you liked it
This was brilliant, more when you're ready, please.
Loved it. These kinds of old forest really interest me, seems like a place where Old Man Willow could live.
Absolutely. Oak trees surely were an inspiration for the Ents of Middle Earth.
Yes very interesting more please and many thanks for your excellent vids!!
This vid was extremely helpful thx for making it
By far the best history channel..❤❤❤❤
This was an amazing video I didn't know I wanted to see
Thanks friend! Appreciate the feedback
You should send this to the local council! Great tourist advertisement for this area and it's something easy to forget if you aren't local to the area.
A nice idea. Thanks so much for watching !
We had a tree like that in our forest here in the netherworld until last year, when it was cut down for no given reason, tears and many curses followed after seeing the king of the woods in pieces on the ground, that awesome being was over 750 years old. May the forces of nature strike on those who were involved in its killing.......................... Love your video, more like it are much appreciated.
So sad.
Being from the states, Treks in the British countryside are what I myself enjoy most...a fella named Huw in Wales does real good with those type vids...thanks for sharing the unseen countryside with us...
Love English history, please make more. Excellent work !!!
Glad you like it! More on the way :)
Didn't think I would enjoy this, but damm you can make just about anything interesting, keep it up mate
Love this new format!
Thanks Artur. More on the way for sure! Though the longer ones aren't going anywhere.
That was absolutely fantastic! I’d love to see more like this
Thanks so much! More on the way
I have such amazement seeing the layers of time in the towns and cities and natural places of the world. If you live in a place where such things can be seen, treasure it. I live in Florida in the US and have to make do with a town that has little from over a hundred years ago. Our treasure is our huge oaks, some surviving from well before European colonization. Some are similar to your oaks, only, often with long sprawling limbs that touch the ground! I'd love to see the older trees, and architecture and ancient roads of England. I have very little English but our shared culture makes me feel as if I'm seeing home, seeing imagery such as that shown here. Thank you for sharing your history with us here, especially as many of us are e stuck in our own countries as I write this.
Thank you for all your videos. That was interesting as well as the previous ones) different forms are great! I started watching your channel when there were about 40,000 subscribers:)) go on doing your amazing job! I wish you to have more subscribers and more fascinating videos!
Very interesting and informative. More, please! Thank you.
PS The maps were extremely useful in helping the viewer better understand the setting and historical events. Well done!
Loved it! Make more please.
This was great! You could definitely do more of this kind. 👍🏻
LOVED this, as a local! Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed this video; thanks very much for making it!
Thanks for watching my friend. More on the way
Very interesting video! I would like to see more of this type. Thanks.
Thanks George. Appreciate it!
Really glad you made this. I come from Retford (the red ford of the River Idle) nearby and it blew my mind when I found out about the origins of Edwinstowe.
I absolutely love this video and would love more!
Thanks so much Carl. More on the way for sure!
This was wonderful.......more please
Really enjoyed watching that.
Absolutely loved this video. I love all of your videos, but like the top pinned comment, its a nice change of pace. One of, if not my topmost, favorite channel on youtube.
You deserve more subscribers and a full production team on "syndicate" tv.
Keep it up brother, you are amazing and an inspiration.
I would like more like this :) great job!
I love your videos mate, makes them even better that they are all based in my local area.
I would love to see more of these historical tours/ videos!!!!
Great video. Hope there will be more to come on this subject.
Thanks very much! More on the way for sure
I really enjoyed it thank you. Please make more in this style.
I live in tasmania, Australia and we have some pretty incredible ancient forests and landscape. But its great to see what it would've been like back in the homeland. And to get some of the myths & back stories. Cheers mate.
Thanks so much mate. Appreciate you watching. You really do have some incredible forests over there. I was in the Daintree three years ago. Absolutely phenomenal place. Never been anywhere else like it. So ancient.
Great video keep them coming
Thanks Robert. Appreciate it
I love this channel. I prepare a fat joint and let the smooth voice take me back to medieval times!
OUTSTANDING JOB
Sometimes I watch your smaller videos and I think that they are longer than they actually are because they are so jam packed with information
Awesome video would love to see more
This was great! Would love to see more
Thanks so much! More on the way!
Loved this thank you. Grew up in Edwinstowe and still live near by. Interesting facts about the Viking influence, it would be great to tie in something about the Thynghowe trail too if possible. All the best
That tree is amazing!!!! Hope it stays for another 500 years 😊😊
This was great!
This is great, man.
Great work, great video! I want more of this! :-)
Thanks!
I'd enjoy seeing more videos like this keep it up good sir
This was a really damn interesting video thankyou :D
Thanks so much. Really appreciate your feedback
Yes. Great video. Would enjoy more.
Loved it!
Really like your work - all of it. This upload is particularly interesting. It is unbelievable how hard we work to destroy our forests and trees. As you are going through Edwinstowe I see trees along the road that are just hacked up, as if they are hated. So sad, but so informative. Thank you for your hard work.
Prefer the documentaries. Keep up the good work and thank u!
Great idea for a video. Makes me miss Britain. Did you get the front row on a double decker? Lucky bugger!
Thanks mate. I did indeed! The mighty Sherwood Arrow to the metropolis of Ollerton ..
Ty! Fan of Robbin Hood, read the tales. Seeing a historical video with ties to classic literature is very cool indeed. Though I do o think a bit more time could have been spent on the forests history detailing what the trees where used for such as ship building etc I was very much entertained so ty.
I'll delve further into the Robin Hood legend in a dedicated video for sure, and also I'll delve more into the woodland itself.
I would love to see more of this kind of thing from you
Fantastic video. 10/10
More videos like this, definitely
Your videos are great, but this one in particular is amazing. I loved the structure, and it reminded me of my time in Nottingham :)
Thanks so much friend! Glad it brought out the nostalgia for you!
Liked the video, I would enjoy more videos like this one
Thanks Daniel appreciate it !
your narration style really reminds me of book "all the shah's men". Its history. but told as a story with a touch of poetic style. Entertaining and informative.
Thanks so much friend. Sounds like an interesting book. I shall have to investigate.
I just discovered your channel, you’re awesome! 😎
Yes this video was excellent and please make more like it
