Jools, please, would you consider adding subtitles to your videos. They are beautiful to watch and enjoy, but we can’t rely on the auto generation subtitles to be correct. Please consider being inclusive and getting these fixed - at least in future videos. Thanks
Mate, we're all feeling sorry for ourselves, with good reason. But, an impromptu sing-a-long with a road-worker is just balm to the soul. Thank you for all that you know and do.
Could never imagine a Brit would WANT to do an impression of Stallone, let alone actually DO a really good one! Cheers, Simon! And Joolz, spot on with Jimmy Stewart. Old movie on a dreary rainy day. . . just the thing . As always, a bouquet of sunbeams, you are.
I think they are both wearing US Army M-65 field jackets (65 for the year they were introduced). Don't think either is an M-51, the previous version, as the collars look too rounded.,
@@LeeBv9983 considering Rambo is stated as being in the Army starting in 1966 it’s right in line with the M65 being worn especially after dix years of service
Every time I click on one of your videos I think, “I don’t have 20 minutes to spend on this”. And every single time they’re so damn fascinating I watch every second. So Hello from the middle of Ohio, there are a whole bunch of us who think you do an excellent job, and someone should pay you more for doing it
Love learning about the history of the area. I grew up around there and can remember when Kings Cross was practically a no go area in the 80's. Now look at it! Whenever I walk past that hotel I think of the Spice Girls, thanks for the great rendition!
The first time I visited London, I wanted to stay the rest of my life (after about ten minutes there). It remains my favorite city. I appreciate you providing a ‘small window’ into it. I especially love that you visit the less well traveled places. Best of luck with lockdown part 2.
When me come to a Londin i come to this place is nice am from dover fist in bot. I live in hotel is nice. food not nice not more money for me i like to win monys on horse but no today's me go to they give me mors monys
did you know a few years ago when they was doing up the St Pancras hotel a builder found a hidden room and it was a very old untouched freemasons lodge, very little is known about the history of the lodge
Simon's 'Rambo' was bang on! I grew up round there, I remember the old gas works and asking my mum who all those women were hanging round on the bridge?
You should try “PG Tips” and of course “Tetley’s British Blend”. Those of us from Britain 🇬🇧 drink those not that Earl Grey nonsense lol Also, if its called “English” breakfast tea its for tourists lol Cheers mate
These videos are marvellous! Even though I’m a Londoner born and bred (but haven’t lived there for many years), I just see and learn so much about my home town from videos. I’m 57 now and you’re absolutely right. When I was young you absolutely wouldn’t want to go around that area. I went there last year and the change is astonishing!
Studied history at uni in the 90 s much which dealth with Victorian London. Never been so bored in my life. But watching these you bring it to life! How wonderful ✨😍
Can’t resist… In 1964 at 13 years old with my sister 14, returning from France, unaccompanied, we sat on the steps of the arched entrance to Kings Cross station for 6 or seven hours waiting for our French cultural/language exchange student guests to arrive. They had been delayed at the French side of the channel… immigration nonsense, of course. We knew they would eventually pass by there on their way to catch the train north to Berwick on Tweed. We gave up eventually and using the five pound note that was safely squirrelled away, we spent the night in the Great Northern Hotel, travelling home the next day. Our guests, it transpired, came through the archways within a half hour after we gave up! Sweet memories. I’m a Scot and live near Montreal, speaking french, of course. However I spent a couple of years in London and and I’m captivated by your Walks. Thank you.
This is precisely why I am a fan of Joolz! Quirky, sentimental tidbits of odd historical minutiae attached to seemingly everywhere you look! Like that Joolzy memorial to Glindor Michael, or linking the misdaventures of Verlaine and Rimbaud to Simons' rather brilliant impression of Stallone's Rambo, or Julian's more than passable Jimmy Stewart. All the while on a pleasant stroll on a gorgeous Autumn day! This is just great TV-especially good during lockdown, when all we crave is to get out of the house and visit places outside our bubble! Thank you Julian. You are doing invaluable work!
Thanks .I lived all over London from 66 till 72 i loved it .I lived all over the world now in the North of England 🇬🇧 .its a pleasure the way u take me back. And with history of it.
You're a brilliant guide Joolz! Lovely stories - so engaging and a treat to watch. My great grandfather was a master builder and constructed a house in Royal College St (19c) It was acquired compulsorily by the Railway to build the line that goes through the area - they were sad to lose it and as it was for public works apparently got a pittance in return). My granddad died at St Pancras Hospital sadly. But the Pearly Kings of Kings Cross have a statue at St Pancras Cemetery (in N. Finchley - which is used for buriels of locals) - so the connection continues. Thanks for sharing your really great insights x
The melancholy invoked by the Bb minor Chopin Nocturne was so fitting watching this in lockdown. I never realised that the Wannabe video was shot in the Great Midland. Great vlog and I can't believe how much the are has changed even since the nineties when I used to play snooker round there.
Another brilliant vid to kick off the day here in the USA. The footage evoked fine memories of a walk I took last summer on lazy afternoon from the amazing London Canal Museum to Little Venice via the canal and a hop up primrose hill. Loved the flashback of sites and sounds.
Fantastic video. So many hidden jewels in London that I'd never know about without your knowledge. It's a shame there's a growing problem of security guards comcerned about filming stuff as though it's somehow stealing.
Hello Joolz I have been banished from London all year, to Hospital in Leeds, where they have some of the best Blood Cancer treatments in the country. Anyway your tours of London have consistently cheered me up even through a bone marrow transplant so, thank you!
Recently found your channel and am steadily working my way through each and every video. I have been looking for a a channel like this for ages but none of them have entertained and filled me with knowledge as much as yours. Thank you thank you!! Also if you can recommend any books about the history of london that would be great.

Thanks for doing a video about the area Joolz, I lived around there for years and worked down in the freight depot at Bagley's, it's very different now but I loved it as it was before the redevelopment, it had real character then and was an oasis of calm in an otherwise chaotic city.
Woo hoo. Just got back from the pub (Brisbane time) and here's a Jool'z waiting in my list. I've had a fantastic day and night and it's now capped off as the perfect ending. Rock on, Joolz! And yes, I'm three sheets haha
@@usernnammee12345ffghjjjjjjjk Cool, @xx. My apologies for not acknowledging earlier. Again I come back home (Bramble Bay Bowls Club) from jam session afternoon. But NO Joolz! Sigh
11:14 Great to see those lovely gas holders were kept. They were the signal that we had arrived in London when travelling down to St. Pancras from the East Midlands.
This Western Canadian,who just happens to have been born in Isleworth way, way back when, loves your videos. Please keep them coming. Hopefully things will improve sooner rather than later and I can once again visit London to explore some of the more off the beaten track places that you talk about!
Your vids always make me want to go to London. I miss my days out on a train, visit a gallery, get a lovely lunch. Roll on next summer! In the meantime, thank you 😊
Ah, thank you for this beautiful nocturne composed by our national icon Frederic Chopin. Really suits the beautiful sunny weather here in the south of Poland, somehow made me feel so pleasantly nostalgic. Best wishes, Joolz ;-)
Ah Joolz, if only a fella could subscribe twice... This vids are destined to be archives for all to reference when thinkiing about coming to London Town. Better than anything the tourism bureau has ever put out and gives a person a reason to cross the waters.
Jules, your guides are filled with fun, information I never heard and I have lived in London since 1985!! Its so refreshing to see you out and about even in Lock down. Keep up the good work and a nod and a wink to your sister for her own songs, brilliant channel, love it! xx
Thanks Joolz, as an out of Towner I always find your guides invaluable for occasional trips to London. I visited Coal Drop Yard in the snow earlier in the year. This has cheered me up a lot, long may you continue.
I used to work in Vale Royal, at the Camden end of York Way. Well remember the rat-arsed Ozzies and Kiwis lining the pavement outside the Walkabout on Sunday mornings. Also the ‘Ladies of negotiable affection’ would park up with their clients outside our office garage door in the wee small hours, we’d let them have a few minutes to get started, then push the button to open the shutter! Well, it kept us amused. 🤣👍🏻
So cool I live here see how much history Camden has summers town as well I was born in 1971 so I remember how much as been lost not everything new is good keep on doing this mate thanks
What a surprise! Me and my daughter really love that one, because we’ve learnt something new about our area😊 Most of the streets and buildings are so close to our flat. Thank you🙏
Your channel was an accidental find, as one of your videos was added into my queue automatically. I’m absolutely loving your videos, they are so interesting, engaging and extremely funny. You would be a brilliant History teacher!
Youre a top lad Joolz. Last year i lived for 6 months next to hampstead health in a transit van. I love your content and ive always kept up with your content. I like and share as much as i can.
Thank you Joolz...music was excellent, story very interesting, I had beautiful time with all of you🌹God bless you for those stories....make me feel I am still alive❤️💙💚🧡💛 Best wishes from Belgrade,Europe...
Hey dude! Another brilliant film...right at the end when you're in Argyle Street, you're walking around the same streets that my dad and his brothers and sisters (there were 10 of them all told), grew up on (in the 50's/60's). If you'd walked to Sidmouth Street off the Greys Inn Road, that's where my aunt still lives! Interesting, I know. Thank you as always for a top film.
Another wonderful video. Keep them coming. I live in Essex but come into London 3/4 times a year and explore whilst riding my bike. Travel miles and enjoy this wonderful city so much. Keep it up Jools.
Great video Joolz. Shame the security guard stopped filming He mentions private property, but if your stood on a public footpath filming just the outside / external part of the building i didn't think you needed permission under section 62 of the copyright, designs and patents act 1988. You do need permission if you intend to make a 3d model of the building and the building is within the terms of its copyright (usually lasts for the life of the architect plus 70 years), or you want to enter the building and photograph / film inside then yes you might need permission. I thought you were on a public footpath while filming the German Gymnasium?
Thank you Joolz (and your sister too) for these fabulous visits of a town I love. During this pandemic, it feels really good to see you guys ! From Canada.
We both love watching your videos and the walks around London, I Know Mary and I would love to go to England one day. My parents were from there, your are so informative and we thank you. Plus you are so funny. Thanks for all the fun
Absolutely top hole as usual, don’t let security push you around! Guess what, I’m doing exactly that but in the heat of a Queensland heat... Do you ever get around Barnes as my Daughter lives there. I was blown away with the history of the Olympic studio. Keep up the great work old man.
Hi Jools. Just discovered your channel. Great videos with some really interesting facts and information. It was the Midland Railway who built the line into StP and went through the churchyard. As you said the Great Northern was next door at Kings Cross. I was always confused when watching The Ladykillers film as the back of the house overlooked the entrance to Copenhagen tunnel and yet the view from her front door looked up Argyle Street which is a mile or so away! Obviously a bit of artistic licence going on there! Look forward to watching some of your other videos. Miss coming into town because of this lockdown and doing my walks. Your videos are the next best thing with some great snippets of information thrown in. All good stuff. Keep the videos coming. Take care.
Your videos are totally brilliant Joolz. The most entertaining, informative & funny walking tours I’ve ever known & I’ve been guiding for over 20 years & btw had enough run ins with security jobs worth’s! Makes me miss London sooo much, thank you x
Another great video Jules & co. Really do enjoy touring London with you and hearing about the history and stories about the place. Please don't stop! 😁
Excellent and entertaining as always Joolz. To find where things were filmed, the Reel streets website is truly excellent. It tells me Mrs Lopsided's house was in Frederica street N7.
Another brilliant video, I hope to someday join you on one of your tours! I tell all my friends and family about you and we love to watch your videos. Keep up the brilliant work my friend.
Wonderful! I would very much enjoy a Christmas lights walk in the evening to showcase the best of London! Thank you for making your videos! I rewatch them most days, I enjoy them that much! Cheers!
Wasn’t the area called _Battle Bridge_ (over the Fleet) before it became King’s Cross - hence the associations with Boudicca? It’s a superb summary Joolz tremendous work: and _oi_ the hangovers I remember from the raucous chaos of The Church. Speaking of which, that is of course St Pancras *Old* Church even though it’s a Victorian rebuild: the New Church is the one opposite the fire station on the corner of Eversholt Street and Euston Road with the huge caryatids. I do miss that old an odd wasteland behind the stations where the arches of St Pancras used to stretch back darkly seemingly for ages before they were demolished for the Eurostar. It sadly comes as no surprise that _The Man Who Never Was_ was a vagrant of Somers Town. This was one of many great countless details I learned. (we all know she’s *really* buried beneath the Tumulus on Hampstead Heath... 😁)
I liked this video on my first viewing, and today I watched it for at least the second time. It's really up there as one your best, Joolz, and very interesting. I've noticed much that passed me by on the first viewing. Behind St Pancras station you showed two old gasometer frames enclosing flats built inside them which I thought was a wonderful idea. Gasometers were all over the place in the country when I was a youngster and I know many of the frames have been, quite rightly preserved. Maybe the building of flats in others around the country would be a good idea too. I noticed other things i missed before too, so I'm glad I chose this to watch again. I have though, watched many of your video's more than once. Keep up the fabulous work.

Another brilliant film...right at the end when you're in Argyle Street, you're walking around the same streets that my dad and his brothers and sisters (there were 10 of them all told), grew up on (in the 50's/60's). If you'd walked to Sidmouth Street off the Greys Inn Road, that's where my aunt still lives! Interesting, I know. Thank you as always for a top film.
Man, I love these videos! There is not a single soul I haven't told about my obsession with Joolz Guides videos.
Beer n Joolz..I love Friday nights..cheers to you!
Another wonderful video. Keep them coming. I live in Essex but come into London 3/4 times a year and explore whilst riding my bike. Travel miles and enjoy this wonderful city so much. Keep it up Jools.
Sorry Joolz
Great video Joolz. Shame the security guard stopped filming He mentions private property, but if your stood on a public footpath filming just the outside / external part of the building i didn't think you needed permission under section 62 of the copyright, designs and patents act 1988. You do need permission if you intend to make a 3d model of the building and the building is within the terms of its copyright (usually lasts for the life of the architect plus 70 years), or you want to enter the building and photograph / film inside then yes you might need permission. I thought you were on a public footpath while filming the German Gymnasium?
Thanks for keeping these films going Joolz and crew! They are a bright spot during these dark times. :)
Enjoying all of your videos from Dallas Texas. Another great one!
A Chopin's nocturne as a background to video makes it even better 🙂 Thanks a lot!👍
Thank you Joolz (and your sister too) for these fabulous visits of a town I love. During this pandemic, it feels really good to see you guys ! From Canada.
Well I really enjoyed that, no boring bits. Love it
We both love watching your videos and the walks around London, I Know Mary and I would love to go to England one day. My parents were from there, your are so informative and we thank you. Plus you are so funny. Thanks for all the fun
Just what you need on a Sunday afternoon. Great work Joolz.
Absolutely top hole as usual, don’t let security push you around! Guess what, I’m doing exactly that but in the heat of a Queensland heat...
Do you ever get around Barnes as my Daughter lives there. I was blown away with the history of the Olympic studio.
Keep up the great work old man.
Hi Jools. Just discovered your channel. Great videos with some really interesting facts and information. It was the Midland Railway who built the line into StP and went through the churchyard. As you said the Great Northern was next door at Kings Cross. I was always confused when watching The Ladykillers film as the back of the house overlooked the entrance to Copenhagen tunnel and yet the view from her front door looked up Argyle Street which is a mile or so away! Obviously a bit of artistic licence going on there! Look forward to watching some of your other videos. Miss coming into town because of this lockdown and doing my walks. Your videos are the next best thing with some great snippets of information thrown in. All good stuff. Keep the videos coming. Take care.
A real Sunday treat as always! Now here I go back into another 2 hours of Joolz'y video Rabbit Hole, starting as I always do in Primrose Hill.
Your videos are totally brilliant Joolz.
The most entertaining, informative & funny walking tours I’ve ever known & I’ve been guiding for over 20 years & btw had enough run ins with security jobs worth’s!
Makes me miss London sooo much, thank you x
Another great video Jules & co. Really do enjoy touring London with you and hearing about the history and stories about the place. Please don't stop! 😁
London looks beautiful in the autumn sunshine! I think this is your best London video yet!
Thanks, Joolz. You've cheered me up no end, during this horrid lockdown. Keep them coming. Keep safe. Stephen.
That Stallone impression was brilliant! :D
Always fun to watch , and always makes me long to return to London town , thanks mate , Cheers!!!
Excellent and entertaining as always Joolz. To find where things were filmed, the Reel streets website is truly excellent. It tells me Mrs Lopsided's house was in Frederica street N7.
So glad your back!! Have made my way through the bulk of your videos during lockdown in Australia. Good to see a new one.
0:14 I used to work in Hampstead back when the sign "Camden Road"used to be "I wish I worked in Hampstead."
Another brilliant video, I hope to someday join you on one of your tours! I tell all my friends and family about you and we love to watch your videos.
Keep up the brilliant work my friend.
If I ever get to London I am going on a Joolz tour! Just not sure which ones there are so many goodun’s!!👍😁
Really enjoyed that. My favourite part of London and now I know lots more about it. Thank you!
Wonderful!
I would very much enjoy a Christmas lights walk in the evening to showcase the best of London!
Thank you for making your videos!
I rewatch them most days, I enjoy them that much!
Cheers!
8:15 those tombstones are from the cemetery by Euston station
Nice to see you on my wedding day Joolz. Glad you popped in. :)
I'd love to 1 day buy Jools , Lou and Simon a nice pint. Love you guys, from a convict covid ridden down under. Cheers!
A great video. We stayed close to King's Cross. My husband and I got lost. We could have used you then. Some day we'll be back to London.
Easily one of the best RUclips channels...
I live in Spain nowadays but miss London sooo much!
Wasn’t the area called _Battle Bridge_ (over the Fleet) before it became King’s Cross - hence the associations with Boudicca? It’s a superb summary Joolz tremendous work: and _oi_ the hangovers I remember from the raucous chaos of The Church.
Speaking of which, that is of course St Pancras *Old* Church even though it’s a Victorian rebuild: the New Church is the one opposite the fire station on the corner of Eversholt Street and Euston Road with the huge caryatids. I do miss that old an odd wasteland behind the stations where the arches of St Pancras used to stretch back darkly seemingly for ages before they were demolished for the Eurostar.
It sadly comes as no surprise that _The Man Who Never Was_ was a vagrant of Somers Town. This was one of many great countless details I learned. (we all know she’s *really* buried beneath the Tumulus on Hampstead Heath... 😁)
Yes, Battle Bridge. You are right. I sometimes cherry pick which info I think will resonate the most. That one got left behind I'm afraid!
You always brighten my day Joolzy. Spice Girls in the hotel- priceless😁
Love your walking tours of London! Thanks so much for sharing! 😊
Joolz - you're a trip, love your vids. Next time in London I definitely want to go on some of your walks.
I liked this video on my first viewing, and today I watched it for at least the second time. It's really up there as one your best, Joolz, and very interesting. I've noticed much that passed me by on the first viewing. Behind St Pancras station you showed two old gasometer frames enclosing flats built inside them which I thought was a wonderful idea. Gasometers were all over the place in the country when I was a youngster and I know many of the frames have been, quite rightly preserved. Maybe the building of flats in others around the country would be a good idea too. I noticed other things i missed before too, so I'm glad I chose this to watch again. I have though, watched many of your video's more than once. Keep up the fabulous work.
Love that Jimmy Stewart info, thank you!!!
