Great tour and you made the place look sooo bright and vibrant - it makes a change from people filming the worst parts on a gloomy day which helps to run the place down and puts visitors off coming here . ✋
Thank you for that. Although Australian now, hubby has fond memories of Blackpool, the tower & Blackpool rock. His father was minding the younger two, so hubby & his convalescing mother had quality time. My grandchildren would have enjoyed comic con & spent days making their perfect outfit.
Can’t say I’m a fan of the new 2.35.1 aspect ratio format. The white logo against the black bar is pretty distracting. Content-wise though, top notch as ever.
@@GimbalWalkTV This year's one was bigger than past year's. Find lot's of people willing to dress ( Cosplay ) for comic-con. Good place to find collectable's too.
Having to sit through "Some Mothers do have 'em" starring Joe Pasquale is my idea of Hell . Great video though...going to Blackpool in June for my Birthday.
Yeah right.....just the highest number of empty shops ever....and levels of poverty and social deprivation at the highest levels ever...not to say crimes of a violent and sexual nature in the town at the highest level ever. Otherwise, it's wonderful 😕
It was a desperate attempt by Blackpool council to make the street look a little more interesting and to attract business. Like so many ideas put foward by councils, it is generally agreed that it did nothing for Birley Street at all. The appreciative crowds did not appear - it's been more than 15 years now so they won't be coming - and the number of empty shops continues to increase. Sadly, hard-pressed local people had to pay for this nonsense through their council tax.
Blackpool means these things to me: The Pleasure Beach The Winter Gardens The Tower The piers Coral Island Harry Ramsdens St Anne's down the road Blackpool will not, and should not, ever become fully 'respectable' but I wish that it had more nice coffee shops and nice restaurants - although St Anne's does supply that
You passed lots of places to have coffee and tasty meal? We've lived here 18 years most of the years in Bispham. My 3 kids went to great schools, college and have had a very good childhood growing up here. My son is doing a Marine Biology Degree at the local University Centre. My Daughter's training to be a midwife. I've two small Grandson's and they're never bored. They go to a lovely school and nursery. I wouldn't go back to live in Altrincham, Cheshire or Manchester. Sadly lockdown didn't help shops and businesses but things are on the up. Plenty of good quality houses for sale that aren't through the roof. Also new housing being built and new entertainment centres. We are still having some good weather days too in October. Winters can be windy and cold. There are some awful looking areas atm but there's a plan to eventually redevelop those. I've never regretted coming here. This shows a great side of Blackpool, real life here unlike some news articles and national newspapers.
Trying to give Blackpool the Benidorm look is not working , nearly but not quite , the topsy turvey climate doesn't help , still the best the U.K. can offer though and just a lick away you have the Lake District , so sorry but Spain does not have that little Jewell on it's doorstep. Well done , good vid '

My favourite spot is in The Manchester Pub, my first solo trip to Blackpool since my separation.
Very friendly.

So crystal clear

Great quality and colouful walk of Blackpool , love the place 👍
Will you be doing any walks in Jersey St Helier Channel islands?
I've got St Helier planned yes!
Black pool đẹp quá bạn ạ.
Can’t say I’m a fan of the new 2.35.1 aspect ratio format. The white logo against the black bar is pretty distracting.
Content-wise though, top notch as ever.
Thanks Simon - just experimenting - might not be permanent
just found your brilliant video tour, I was at comic con that day as Spiderman.
ha ha amazing! Hope you had a top time
Blackpool doesn't look as bad as some people say it is. Better than some parts of London.
Some parts of London are shitholes
154 K, nice walk there at Blackpool town centre , England love it . From Texas
Thank you!
Good video, I was in Blackpool the same day for Comic-Con.
What was it like? I was going to nip in and film it

its worth going up bp tower as they give history talk too and u can see the ballroom etc
I'd love to do that!
See they are showing Blood Brothers at one of the theatres, that would be more interesting t me than the comic con.... fantastic show.
Having to sit through "Some Mothers do have 'em" starring Joe Pasquale is my idea of Hell . Great video though...going to Blackpool in June for my Birthday.
Have a great one!
what is the most visited street with high pedestrian traffic?
👍👍👍
A very good video andBlackpool looks so good these days
Yeah right.....just the highest number of empty shops ever....and levels of poverty and social deprivation at the highest levels ever...not to say crimes of a violent and sexual nature in the town at the highest level ever. Otherwise, it's wonderful 😕
@@richardjones8699You’ve picked out the most negative aspects though
love blackpool. going in 2 weeks time
Have a great time mate! ❤️
What's with those arches on Birley Street?
Good question - not sure!

@@uk-martin4905 Good points well made
My wife loved Blackpool and she’s from Thailand we spent 5 days there ,,?
Dale's Diner, best fish and chip shop in Blackpool by far.
Not tried that yet!
Not really liking the screen aspect format over the last few vids. I find the full screen much more immersive.
Yeah understood - was just experimenting with a few of them
👍
❤️
Blackpool means these things to me:
The Pleasure Beach
The Winter Gardens
The Tower
The piers
Coral Island
Harry Ramsdens
St Anne's down the road
Blackpool will not, and should not, ever become fully 'respectable' but I wish that it had more nice coffee shops and nice restaurants - although St Anne's does supply that
Bang on!
