Dont worry about stereotyping a person from Yorkshire. We are very good at banter and not offended by jokes (most of us anyway). We often take the piss out of ourselves. Just expect us to return fire tenfold if you start a banter match. The biggest danger of stereotyping a person from Yorkshire is not offending us, it risking yourself being offended when we start taking the piss out of you in return.
When my mates Californian girlfriend came over to visit. She struggled with our Yorkshire accents. She thought we were all talking in a different language, though she be half right some of our dialect words are old norse words.
Can confirm on the Yorkshire Tea front. My parents are from Sheffield and wherever they go on holiday, the first thing that gets packed into the suitcase before anything else is a stash of Yorkshire Tea teabags!
I just met some folks from York in my Upstate NY town for the eclipse. Nice folks. I work in a greasy spoon, and they were very happy to get gravy for their fries/chips. They really liked our poutine too.
Eyup This friendly greeting is old Norse and comes from all the Danish Vikings that came here. In Sweden it is still used but they pronounce it Say Upp.
General rule for any busy town/city - do NOT use a car. Just walk. Stay in the city centre and walk, or use taxis if weather is horrible. Parking can be a pain and can ruin your experience of visiting. Speaking from experience.
Got to say, watch all of your videos and these "do's & don'ts" of England and you are bob on 99% of the time. In fact all of them are great. Keep up the great output!
No. I've heard the phrase in British books and British tv so knew that meant flirting, but I don't think most Americans would. It's just chatting or chatting with though. No "up", so maybe that's the difference.
Loved this one. So many good memories from York. Both as a child and up to my thirties. Did both my Army basic training at Strensall Barracks near York later as a training NCO. The river floods so often many buildings especially in the older pubs you see sections of walls marked with a series of horizontal lines with a date listing when and how high the water level was from that flood. The rich history is still a point of pride for many. A major place of importance Romans, Normans, also one the main population centres for Viking settlement. Please consider a visit to Lincoln next time you are in this part of the UK a similar history and also has many quirks of interest. Being an even more important part of Roman Britain the oldest canal in the UK was dug by the Romans linking the river Trent at Torksey to the river Witham at Lincoln so a vessel could reach Lincoln from the Wash at Boston or via the Humber, Trent, Fossdyke Navigation. Lincoln Cathedral is also worth a visit try to find and photo the Lincoln Imp. A small stone carving in one of the pillars.
Not going to lie - my daughter was my Yorkshire to English translator. Fortunately it was only on two occasions where I completely misunderstood and she quickly whispered what they actually said so I could then quickly say, "oh, excuse me, I don't know what I was thinking, yes please (insert what they asked)." We absolutely loved York and can't wait to visit again.
Nobody cares about the brand of tea. Just don't congregate in the narrower cobbled streets and block people from getting through. That is definitely irritating!
I have no personal interest in this but when I was last in York I ate at 'ASK Italian' on Blake St (York YO1 8QG). It's a chain and the food is nice but what is amazing is the building it's in. It's the old The Grand Assembly Rooms which has been used for 'gatherings' since the 1730s. Well worth a visit.
All good points Mark. I'm from Liverpool but went to university in Sheffield and lived there for a while after leaving, so I recognise some of the characteristics from there. Regarding the "mean Yorkshireman" jokes, I find that they're best left for the locals to tell about themselves (and they do). In any case, I found the South Yorkshire people to be among the warmest and most open handed I've met. Regarding local rivalries, comedian Jason Manford did a good routine about the way that nests like a Russian doll. He's from Salford, so he and I would begin as "enemies" based on Liverpool-Manchester sibling rivalry, until we met someone from Leeds, in which case we'd join forces for the red rose county against his white rose. But then, if the three of us met a Londoner, we'd gang up on him as a southerner, and then again, if we were all on holiday in Europe, we'd be Englishmen arguing with the French or Spanish, but if we were further afield we might all be fellow Europeans, etc. etc. (Personally, my own prejudice would begin with blue versus red, but I did accompany an old school friend to watch his team beat Chelsea in a recent cup final on TV).
Also as an addition, I'm a York gal married to an American. The American Hershey's manufactured KitKat actually made me cry because it's sooooo bad in comparison to ours.
When we come back from holiday the conversation goes as follows. Ey Up! Good holiday mate? Aye, it was cracking. One eighty a pint on t'front. It wa a real do.
I was born in the midlands but have lived in the south for 17 years, got family in Yorkshire and the people are genuinely very friendly up north, sometimes catches me off guard as a southerner as we tend to keep to ourselves and only speak to people we know on the street etc! But people in Yorkshire are quick to chat to anyone
I'm American and one of my best mates is from Yorkshire. His straightforwardness is one of the cornerstones of our friendship. I know he's going to give it to me straight, and I don't have to walk on eggshells around him either. Works best if you can laugh at yourself.
If you like York, you might enjoy Lincoln, too. It's a bit smaller than York, but with just as much history, and the cathedral and castle are bigger! Also, there are far fewer tourists, so it's easier to get to know the locals.
There’s only one tea to drink & that’s Yorkshire Tea. Also, you forgot Betty’s tearooms, only in Yorkshire. But as proud Yorkshireman now living in Birmingham U.K. I think you’ve just got experience the whole of Yorkshire, Leeds, Harrogate, ilkley, Skipton, Helmsley in North Yorkshire & Knaresborough are worth visiting if you’re in York. There’s so much to see.
I would imagine that they get annoyed by constant jokes calling them "Old York" compared to New York. That's probably the #1 thing that pisses them off.
I always feel like I’m not fully getting York when I’ve been there. It’s nice, but I don’t think there’s a whole lot to do. I much prefer Leeds and going out from Leeds to places like Ilkley, Otley, Skipton, and further into the Dales.
It isn't possible to offend a Yorkshire person. They'll just make fun of you back. Yorkshire folk are very very chilled. I'm from Yorkshire and it takes me some time to get back into the accent when I go back. Also, war of the Roses. Not over.
I'm hard pressed to find any locals when I venture inside the walls. Best time to see the Walls and the Shambles is New Year's Day, when there's only half a dozen of us.
He'd only make a vid full of stereotypes about Manchester like this about York. Let's be honest most would just be regurgitated lazy northern stereotypes, just replace location name
the north is a world unto its self 🤗and the closer you get to the wall, the stranger it gets 😎don't get to close to it. there's been sightings of white walkers 😉
Ha! I'm a living stereotype - I'm from Yorkshire, watched this while drinking Yorkshire Tea. I own a flat cap and a whippet! We all have sticky out ears and slicked back hair up here as we're always saying "How much? Bloody 'ell!"
I would say things pertaining to Lancashire (The Red Rose and neighbouring county) may rattle those in Yorkshire (The White Rose county) For example; Is that a Lancashire accent you have? I love Lancashire Tea and Lancashire cheese. While we weren't around for the War of The Roses many centuries ago, it hasn't quite been forgotten and the banter that still goes on. That being said as a Lancashire Lass I love Yorkshire. 😃
@susanashcroft2674 the Wars were between 2 rival branches of the Plantagenet family fighting for the Crown of England - one branch had been Dukes of Lancaster the other Dukes of York. Both families had lands in many parts of England but the Lancaster estates were mostly in the north and the Yorks were based mainly in the Welsh borderlands. Many northerners were initially on the Lancaster side. This changed when the House of York and the Yorkshire and County Durham based Neville family intermarried several times. The 2 rival families chose different colour roses as their symbols though the term Wars of the Roses did not really exist until about 2 or 300 years after they had finished. The idea that it was a fight between the 2 counties is a myth although some battles did occur in Yorkshire and Richard III did have a lot of support there due to having lived at Middleham Castle when he was governor of the North of England during his brother's reign
For most Lancastrians and Yorkshire folk, the only actual rivalry we have is in sport. Guests from either county in the others county are welcomed with open arms much easier than other parts of Britain because we have an instant understanding and banter. Anyone that actually gets angry and aggressive about it are just w**kers that would find something to kick off about in an empty room. Most don't give a monkeys, we have much more important things to worry about
Come on, don't offend me, Yorkshire tea is the one and only. Now I have to revisit York again, definitely my favourite place! Whilst I am a bloody foreigner, I am super proud living in Yorkshire.
Yer stereotypes of people being cheap or stingy isn't a good anywhere. It normally because the area was extremely poor, and was a comment made the rich to put us down. Please don't use it.
York Native: the most annoying thing that Tourtists do is clog up The Shambles. Yeah it's cool but those who live there see it every day and just want to get where they're going.
It's no way as expensive as London or Edinburgh though and being more compact, you are spoiled for pubs, first class restaurants and hotels which are all within walking distance of the historic attractions. Also, you're less than an hours drive from both the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Parks.
I think the only thing that actually pisses us off is tourists blocking the footpaths (sidewalks). Totally appreciate you're enjoying the sights, but just be mindful of the locals trying to get around.
Lived in York for years, The worst thing visitors do is get drunk mid afternoon. Hen parties in particular are awful. That tends to be other brits though. Americans were generally fine!
Fish and Chips need to be drowned in Gravy. I say that most people from Yorkshire are honest about being a little bit tight or loving a bargin. Tetley tea is also from Yorkshire and I'd say it was more popular than Yorkshire tea in my experience. I've found that people round the world struggle to understand my Yorkshire accent, which is understandable, but don't just ignore me because you don't understand me. So many people have just walked away from me because they dont understand, like restaurant staff even.
I remember asking my dad about the north/south divide when i was a little girl 40 odd yrs ago and he said "down in the south, they're regarded as posh and intelligent and up north poor and stupid". So I asked, "what about us"? Because we lived in the midlands. He thought for a second, "We're just a bit thick". Still makes me chuckle to think of it. For folk that have no sense of humour he was joking...ish.😂
@@AFGuidesHD Is there a New York? Fascinating what one learns. Anyway, the point I was making was about the pronunciation, given the way I wrote it. Maybe that was not clear.
Offering Yorkshire tea isn't going to offend as much as giving Worcester sauce instead of Hendersons'! If you don't know what Hendersons' relish is, then you've missed out on a Yorkshire treat!
The irony of them being "honest" (usually a code word for rude) and them being offended by stereotypes about them (which can sometimes have a lot of truth attached to them) is a bit funny. If you're going to dish it out, you're going to have to be able to take it lol.

You can always tell a Yorkshireman, but you can’t tell him much.
