Thank you 😊 Paul enjoyed this one,hope your okay,got some good news yesterday after all my treatment for it chemotherapy and radiothearpy two operations,my breast cancer has gone,I'm in remission,such good news now just my kidney cancer to beat now,I'm getting there,stay safe xxxx
Thank you Paul. I too am not religious (in fact I guess you can call me an atheist), but I agree with you, that, despite that, I love to appreciate the buildings that churches are, and find them so beautiful. I’m a part time reader due to worsening eyesight, but I’ve read the Alice books, and I feel they’re worth a try if you get the chance. I’m a big fan of “the old favourites” or the “classics “, much like Carroll, and the likes of Mervyn Peake’s Gormenghast trilogy, Roald Dahl, Beatrix Potter, etc, but my favourite by far is JRR Tolkien. Even now, as a woman in my 40s, I still love the books I read as a kid. Give me a classic any day!
Nice presentation 👍 At first, Lewis Carrolls photo, looked like Oscar Wilde. Not a great fan of fantasy but I think the characters he created in Alice, have stood the test of time brilliantly.
Love Lewis Carroll’s’ works, used to read ‘Through The Looking-Glass’ all the time as a kid. He was a brilliant writer, and extremely witty too. The Jabberwocky being a prime example.
Fantastic that you've paid your respects to Charles Ludwig Dodgson . One of his poems starts with Alice Plesance Liddels ( the real Alice )name letters at the start of each line ,thus spelling her name Alice's parents had a holiday home in llandudno called Penmorfa built in 1862 . This much added onto property was unfortunately demolished in 2008 a tragedy ,should of been listed. I've been in Prior to demolition stood were Alice's bedroom was ,touched bannisters she touched . It was never proved Lewis Carrol visited the house this might of saved it All the best Steve .
Hi Jason, Totally agree , I shared it on my fb page and some of my friends have subscribed , You’re more than welcome to share the page as I’m sure Paul would not mind Much love 🥰x
❤❤Thank you so much for showing the grave of lewis Carroll. I was called Alice in wonderland when I was younger. I loved reading both books. May he rest in peace ❤❤
Ooh how exciting. I am almost better now. Thank you for your previous get well wishes. How kind. I use to live in Guildford. Lewis Carroll had a house down the road which I’m almost positive was marked with a blue plaque and there were various references to Alice in Wonderland all around Guildford. I wait in anticipation for this one. 😀
Like you I’m not religious but find churches fascinating. This church was was beautiful, thank you for showing it to us and also showing us the grave of Lewis Carrol. Keep up the good work
What a great man by giving us Alice in wonderland this story must have been read and watched by almost everyone. What a gorgeous little church i absolutely love the peace and tranquility of churches. Watching your lovely videos have got me thinking about where i want my final resting place to be 🤔
As a Member of the Lewis Carroll Society of BOTH the UK and America, i can Say "Well Done!" He spend His last Days of 1897 at His Sisters Home, the "Chestnuts." Unfortunately, since It is a Rental, NO Longer has the Blue Plaque on the Gate. "Thy Will be Done" are His last Words as Dodgson was Dying of Influenza. " One of the Talents entrusted Me to occupy with until the Master shall return, by doing something to make OTHERS LIVES HAPPY."
Hi Paul,what a gorgeous church yard.Thankyou Paul,I found this very interesting listening to you telling the story of Lewis Carrol.I loved reading his books when I was a child,and watching the films of Alice in wonderland and through the looking glass.Thankyou Paul I really enjoyed this video.❤️❤️❤️
Alice in wonder land is my favourite book of all time. It's surprising how many of our greatest comedian's drew inspiration from this wonderful book. Thank you so much
I used to live in Guildford so I have been up there a couple of times. His sisters are buried in that cemetery too though I can't exactly remember where, not too far from him but more in the main area. And his sister's house is near the castle in the centre of Guildford. There are also two sculptures in town that are based on Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass.
As a kid back in the 70s i used to love walking around that grave yard. At the very far end, there used to be what we called a watch tower. I guess its long gone as it was falling down way back then.
hi paul what a wonderful little church and the kind gentleman allowing you to look around inside not a book reader myself but l have seen a few films from the ideas of lewis carroll's works which l enjoyed.
Hi Paul so sorry missed your live chat, but I grew up reading Lewis Carroll's books and watched the films made from them very talented man. May he rest in peace 🙏🙏
As a kid over 60 years ago i loved the book and was in a play in the "Looking Glass" segment. I only got a small role with one line as the "Gentle Voice" in the train-riding scene. I was the age Alice is supposed to be, 7-1/2, was an understudy for the starring role, and memorized all her lines. I looked like the fictional character with long blonde hair, while the girl who played her looked like the real girl with short dark hair.
That was my very first book my lovely mom ❤️ and dad ❤️ bought me one Xmas Alice in Wonderland I was so chuffed to have my own book great video I love watching them you are a credit to your parents
This was wonderful -- I loved these books growing up, and have several bios on Lewis Carroll. Very eccentric but entirely fascinating person! Someday I hope to visit England and see much of this rich history personally. ❤️
Hi Paul this one was really interesting and thats what I call a graveyard all those old headstones and you could still see the lettering ,very surprised how Lewis's grave looked so new. Thanks again Paul for another great watch x
Paul, you didn't do your usual touch of the gravestone before you leave. I always find that very respectful from you, and a nice touch. Thanks for another great video.
Thank you so so much for your videos, I really love how you present the locations with respect and thoughtful comments through your presenter skills, Thank you
Thank you for sharing that enjoyed watching yes I always like watching Alice in Wonderland being dyslexic I like to watch it but I get to audiobooks and listen to it amazing you take care keep safe all the family and drive carefully 😊👍
I live very near Llandudno where he took the inspiration for Alice in Wonderland. Dotted around the town are statues of charachters fromthe story. I did see the ruins of the actual Alice's house (yes she was based on a real girl daughter of a friend of the family) but the ruins recently demolished. So because of this sort of local connection found this very interesting and you narrate all your videos well and we appreciate your research . XoX
i live just over the bridge from croft on tees where he grew up. one of his inspirations was the cheshire cat which is in st. peters church in croft on tees
Wow yet another lovely video lovely to see your funny face an d lovely smile thankyou Paul beautiful church I love churches you are so much like me it’s so uncanny scary take care ❤️😘
Lewis Carroll also went to Rugby School between 1846-49. And I think Lewis etched his full name or initials somewhere on the grounds ? You can tour Rugby School during summer holidays. And it's had a fare share of famous people who've studied here over the centuries. William Webb Ellis 🏉 Rupert Brooke 📚
Love this channel. After watching this one I thought it would be great if you visited james Herbert's grave, only because he is my favourite horror author 🙂😉
The Jabberwocky as a poem was a big influence for me as a poet myself, one of my favourites too be honest that got me interested in poetry when I first started reading it then writing it.
What a lovely video really enjoyed it what a great author and who has not heard of Lewis Carroll, what a nice little church, seems if you are buried close to the church you get the grass cut 😄anyway thanks Paul well done
I’ve been watching your videos for a week now and they are interesting to watch you have a lot of information for the famous people and I’ve learned a lot this past week thank you 🙏 for getting your research beforehand you work so hard to put these videos together thank you 🙏
Hi Paul love your videos, before l went to school we lived by a old cemetery and church , l had a friend she was older then me , we would wonder around and read the dates and such, she taught me how to read, so when l started school l could read unfortunately the church and cemetery are no longer there , houses and football playground!!!!!
Liked this video on Lewis Carroll and on his history of course Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass his most famous works the little orthodox church was interesting .
I'm so chuffed you did Lewis Carroll. It was one of my suggestions to you. I should have told you to go further up the Mount and look at the incredible view. Did you go to the house where he died next to the castle?
Superb work Paul. Just live down the road from Daresbury (rymmes with car) sorry was just your pronunciation 😉 Yes lot of things Lewis Carroll related around here. Even Warrington Town centre has a massive stone mad hatters tea party scene which Charles n Di visited in 1984
Great video again Paul, always loved alice in wonderland, strangly enough have just got a new tarot deck called queen alice. So really strange to See you have just put this up, as they say the world moves in mysterious ways. 😊
Thank you 😊 Paul enjoyed this one,hope your okay,got some good news yesterday after all my treatment for it chemotherapy and radiothearpy two operations,my breast cancer has gone,I'm in remission,such good news now just my kidney cancer to beat now,I'm getting there,stay safe xxxx

Thank you Paul. He made so many many children happy that's his legacy in my opinion. Loved the church and nice of the guy to let you look around.
Nice presentation 👍
