    Wolverhampton I was Born there ! I left school in 1950,played football there each Saturday signed for Dudley Town at16 years of age.I then joined the British Army in 1952 served three years in the Armed Forces most of it in Malaya.Returned home 1955 to just memories.I then joined the NZ armed forces and left England Feb1956 disillusioned and disappointed.After six months I applied to go back to Malaysia with 2NZ Regt and I got married in Singapore and we are still together .In 1968 I was posted back to Malaysia with 1RNZIR .while there I was sent to Vietnam for 14 months my family remained in Singapore .I did return to Wolverhampton but so much had changed it was not my life anymore .Some of my family still live there .I look at the scenes on my computer and it does bring back so many vivid memories.

    I found Wolverhampton 13 years ago. It's one of my favourite cities now.

    What a brilliant video! I was born in Wolves, grew up there but moved to London in 1992. Seeing this, I got really homesick, it really is a fab place!

    A very nice, bright, highly inspiring video that captures Wolverhampton perfectly. Our bustling (but surprisingly green) city deserves such a positive image to be promoted. Well done.

    Born and raised in Wolverhampton, now living in leafy Derbyshire.. when I do go back I’m shocked at the urban decay, gang violence and the way the city as changed and not for the better 😢

    Nice video, I have been to the top of St Peter's also and I was amazed at how green everywhere looked.

    That's some clever camera work. You did a good job of avoiding the "real" Wolverhampton.

    I wouldn't say it's a city of opportunity 😞because the city has no independent businesses. The city of Wolves should invest more on young entrepreneurs and use empty spaces for independent start up businesses.

    When birdsong drowns out traffic noise, in Wolverhampton, in every other British city, we will have achieved something.
    Ban the car, except for the infirm and the disabled.

    This man fly tips in his own street which is a conservation area!!!! What a hypocrite!!! Well done Chris, you actually seem like a believable character, we don't need people like you trying to educate people when you can't even follow basic environmental practices!!!!!!!
