- Spanning centuries of history, Andrew tries to find something interesting to do in the very centre of London, Charing Cross.

How has this so few subscribers. This is so well done !!!!
Agree
I've been living and working in London for years, so much to know about things I've walked past hundreds of times. Very well made videos!
This channel is underrated
😊 To all who aren't aware of a hill station town named Ooty. There is one Charing Cross in the town of Ooty, Tamil Nadu, India. Ooty earlier known as Ootacamund (English name) was the British Summer capital of the then Madras Presidency ( sobriquet "Queen of the Hills"). And the spot is named so, almost similar to the junction shown in London at 2:43 . However there is no railway line at Charing Cross in Ooty. But it is a superb landmark with a fountain named Adams fountain, a school Breeks Memorial (est ~1874) after the 1st collector and many shops . The roads divide to many important locales.
Thanks... 🇮🇳
The list of things to do in Charing Cross part, so very true!
Wasn’t Charing + a waypoint on a pilgrimage route to Canterbury, which goes via Charing on the Pilgrims’ Way? And, BTW, the great irony of the statue of Charles I is that it is oriented so that he is looking down Whitehall - directly at the point where he was executed outside the Banqueting Hall.
Well researched, well presented, great pacing. :: thumbs up ::
Just found your channel, amazing! Cheers from Brazil.
Great video! I've only just discovered you but I hope you do more of these videos 👌🏻
I can't believe they renamed Of Alley. The disappointment.
Awesome stuff! I look forward to the next one!
This is great. Thank you. Looking forward to more.
So glad I tripped across your channel. Cheeky.
I really enjoyed your video! 👍
I'd love to see an exploring canary wharf video, but it would probably be better when the Crossrail/ Elizabeth line station is fully open ( also I'd personally like to see more of Canada water because it has my home's name in it)
Creative, funny, awesome!
Watching this video as Network Rail tweeted today about historical items in their collectionz including a historical deed to the land from the 16th century and buying the land from Christopher Wren
This part of London, just feels more like London, than anywhere else in the Capital.
well good mate keep it up....
You're funny, brother. Very clever.
AT last I know why the Hungerford Bridge is called that. The Hungerford family owned all the land adjacent to it.
Super !
Charing cross' concourse is much bigger than Marylebone's, bear in mind they both have the same amount of platforms!
Plus charing cross looks like paddington station, but the concourse had blocked the view of the trains
❤
where’s your barbour?
charing Cross station, trafalgar Square?
So Witty, actually or acutely ! ! !
I was born in Charing Cross
👍💥💥💥
I was hoping you'd go into Heaven!

@@ExploringLondon My first trip to London I visited there and got so pissed on cider I fell off the bar stool! Good times, good times!
