Hey mate a little advice on your night explores make sure you have a red light with you harder to see from the outside if you don't shine it at the windows !
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I spent almost my entire childhood here from '86-95 as a boarder. Loved every minute of it. So sad when it closed its doors permanently!!
Me too! I have wonderful memories of this place from 1984-91. The nuns weren't great but the sisterhood i had with the rest of my class was anazing x x x
Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"
That’s so funny that Simons shoes were sticking out, it reminds me of a time when I was really young. I was running from police around my old estate for an hour, jumped in a bush for an hour with helicopter searching, loads of police and dogs that came right up to my face in the bush and just walked off like I wasn’t there, then after an hour I came out of the bush….. to be confronted with a copper within 30 seconds 😂
because people might realize that the uk is massively underpopulated and there is thousands of empty properties all over the uk , thats why they bring in immigrants to cover the years and years of contraception abuse that they programmed us all with
This was my terrifying & horrible convent & very Catholic boarding school from 1972-77 😱, run by an order of nuns called Les Filles de la Croix, most of whom were Irish, terrifying & cruel. If anyone has seen the films Angela’s Ashes, The Magdalen Laundry or Philomena, that’s exactly what the sisters were like. Many of us who attended at that time still suffer remnants of trauma from our time there 😢
Must be some paranoia going on my other account is blocked I can't see my comments so I'm blocked, Feels great thanks. subscriber for 4 years lol still enjoying the content mind.
Funny that I think the anteni was overloaded with qweenies got rubbish on the BBC again and the other 70 channels of adverts...matt I will bail you out as a good...person...with nothing melting in your hand...lol arrr maltossers locking up up with a LIDI donkie CA Bar bee..hope you liked the queen's Lodge B and B .
And if I call to say there are burgers at my house they can’t be bothered to turn up but an empty building oh yes let’s send in a full swat team and dogs. Bloody mad.
Cracking one Matt, I must be honest its good honest stuff when plod turn up. When are they going to learn and do their job properly. Go for a wrongfull arrest mate teach them a lesson. At the start I was expecting Bazil Faulty to show up, thought you was at Fawlty friggin Towers. Keep up the good work and keep em peeled.
Well here is the amusing thing, what he is doing is a crime that at the least can get a caution to £1500 fine to ,5 years in jail. Look I love his videos but saying something stupid like " do the police not have real crimes to solve " just makes you look stupid
@@pascoebrock5877 Incorrect , new laws where passed not long ago to deal with unlawful entry and trespass, the new law was originally designed to give police greater power to deal with the traveler scum that invade property without permission, however it was expanded on to specifically include urbexers. basically the method of entry is irrelevant, but simply being on the land or in the property without the expressed consent of the land / property owner under the new law is grounds for arrest / large fines or jail time. Look I have no personal issue with what he is doing and it is entertaining but laws change and times change and doing what he is doing now comes at a heavy risk. One thing i would correct that i said wrong is that it is a £2500 fine and not 1500 and a 3 month jail term not 5 years.
Next time go to the guards (security) head office and when police arrives there you be like : 🤷🏻♂️ whats happened? We havent seen anyone... Thats why there were so many bang broked doors! Police hasbeen breaking in and entry from those to look for explorers! Also keep always one extra shoe with you, so you could put that hanging inside the window to the way you could get out, so they start to look you from outside and thinks youre there and not inside anymore..
Another good vid , anyone know what's happening to the building ? Is it going to be reused or knocked down , looks like could be a rehoming site for our fellow travellers to the UK ! 😉
It's strange in the uk the church of England is collapsing and you can purchase all over the country old churches the question here however is how can you convert the big cross shaped building into something usefull. The old swastika shaped buildings I Germany they simply built 4 more bits onto them to close the arms. The church however with its crucifix leaves you with a bigger problem than the Nazis.
You're wierd. Church of England DOES NOT Equal (=/=) Nazi Germany. Crucifix DOES NOT Equal (=/=) Swastika. Essentially you're trying to equate Christianity with Hitler, in fact you're trying to say the Architecture is somehow worse. You should probably get your head read.
so police had to answer a call of "nothing" so in retaliation inconvenience the pair of you for hours. yeah sounds like a billy no mates trick that they are well known for
The grounds look too well kept for an abandoned place, it makes me think there is more going on there than meets the eye and possibly that's why the Police were heavy handed, but in the end knew that it would draw too much attention if a prosecution went to court.
I hope you make them pay, well at the end of the day its the tax payer that pays that needs to change they need to be held personally liable. But unfortunately wrongful arrest is very hard to prove. They are allowed to arrest you with reasonable suspicion and hold you for 24 hrs without charge. But anyway explore was worth it was a crazy building thanks for doin it and showing it to us.
It`s only tresspass at worst and that is a civil matter untill you have been tresspassed. Then if you don`t leave or you go back, then the police can get involved
That’s right, but when you have been asked to leave by the owner and you don’t, it becomes aggravated trespass , now if the police don’t own it and the owner isn’t bothered is it still an offence? It all seems like nonsense to me
Great matt enjoyed the video, police unbelievable there r real crimes reported which they don't do nothing about bully boys gang members how mad is that for 2 urbexers in a empty building unbelievable great viewing take the bastards to court they didn't follow any law on that one keep videos up really enjoyed that one Jimmy Savile gang member police. Cheers 👍👍👍👍
I wish they realize the ROI that you provide... by having you go do this so I don't have to is just a win-win for everybody. I enjoy the videos keep fighting that good fight!
The only crime is all these places empty when thousands are waiting for homes even if it was just short term housing. It was definitely wrongful arrest. 🤨
You should of gone in the building from that outside the ladder then it would of been harder for them to find you ' it's funny hiding in the Showers lol 😂
Also Matt I don't know if this is any different in England I'm from Canada and trust me had plenty of running plenty of arrests by the police down here in BC by the RCMP and they're a hard bunch to deal with but what I do know is when you get a rested no matter if they slap cuffs on you put you in the back of the police car if you were going to the police station and being locked up in a cell and not free to go right after they have put you in the back of the police car and they have to tell you you were under arrest and tell you why you're under arrest and they have to read you your rights that is your right to know your rights and they don't read you your rights you could be on trial for murdering 17 children and if they didn't read you your rights when you got arrested the charges are dropped immediately and the case is done deal No charges now follow up nothing if they did not read you your rights and tell you why you were being arrested then they failed at completing the Miranda rights and that is in their penal code right there and they should have body cam footage body cams should be running 24/7 and you can bring that up in the court and you can see right there in the video that they did not read you your rights plus you have your friend with you as a witness I don't know I was just watching this and I just thought you know that would be some good information to have but I don't know if it's different in England than it is in Canada so I don't know Hope it helps great explore is always though Matt I been binge watching your videos lol also one more thing about body cams when it comes to police body cams a lot of people don't know this but please body cams do not record solely to the body cam they're actually a live recording and it immediately every hour uploads to a database that is in police headquarters whatever part of England police department their headquarters have a tech room or whatever like a tech analyst room or whatever where they'll be getting live footage of all police officers that are dispatched on duty currently in that precinct they will have it stored and it is stored on a yearly basis and stored in a big server room and I'm sure that they were just being lazy and didn't want to scroll through all the footage to find that footage but it should be there because it's all live uploaded all police body cams are like that it's so the police can't tamper with the footage or delete footage or you know turn it off and turn it back on cuz it's alive thing that's well at least in Canada that's what the body cams are like here I know this for a fact because long story short I happen to have a police body cam a real one and you can't just upload it and record it's actually 24/7 recording and every hour uploading to a database at police headquarters it's so the police can't tamper with the footage or anything and if they do then they'll be caught on camera and be uploaded immediately yeah just thought I'd put that in there too
? the police didn't want to now any thing from you, and made a point of telling you that, so where you ever arrested in the first place, sound can your where, a free ride to a police station, where you lock in the cells e.g, the doors where locked left unlocked, so where you just helping the police with there inquires or something, did to try to leave or anything?
Good explore … up until that point ! Amusing you hid in the showers!! What a waste of everyone’s time - the Police and yours - good luck with your claim and keep us posted! Nice to see the cruise ships in the bay and surrounding countryside in your drone footage. 👍👍
this was brilliant Matt massive place I so can't believe the police treated u like that and kept u locked up over nite that's so bad I would definitely complain too!! arseholes 😡 well done great video though mate 👍💖
Perhaps calling 911 to open up a line of communication withdispatch after the police positively identified themselves (hindsight=20/20), dispatch who you were, where you were, why you were, etc. requested the responding officers stand by until you find the fire escape you both used for egress which you came in on as in the previous commenter has mentioned, just saying.
Report a burglary or car theft police take weeks to reply.
Abandoned building 15 turn up, pathetic.
Lol yeh you know that m8. They don't even bother doing anything if you have tools stolen out your van your told to claim on the insurance lol
Hey mate a little advice on your night explores make sure you have a red light with you harder to see from the outside if you don't shine it at the windows !
Did you clean your dogs mess up?

Hi matt
With buildings all round UK needing alittle love it's a shame they can not be used to help the homeless

The quiet, walking slowly "trying to get away" is the best type of police chase i must admit🤣
There's a car down there and the boot is open

Going to be a interesting watch i know you will get it all sorted out in the end .
Bit well maintained for an abandoned place (?)
Nice gates and outside light 👍
OMG sounds a bit extreme? So had you set some alarms off?
Cant wait for this explore later when I get in.
"BOOK HIM!" 😆
what a great view from the buildings.
Nice one Matt keep up the good work
Intense at the end! Great explore, thank you 🙏😊
they come around in vans now on megaphones asking any scrap metal lol
Great video, good to see Angel too. Awesome explore.
Great adventure Matt :) you need to take Auditing Britain with you .. that will fix the plod !
This was the all girls school in Torquay, it was the boarding part of my school as I went to the day school in Torquay which was turned into flats
Arrrrgggggg, the good stuff always happens when the camera is off!!!
Great title. Makes me think of the “Catholic High School Girls in Trouble" segment in Kentucky Fried Movie.
I have that movie I bought it from old neighbor
what does the front door look like now???
And if I call to say there are burgers at my house they can’t be bothered to turn up but an empty building oh yes let’s send in a full swat team and dogs. Bloody mad.
I live like 30 mins away from this building must say I must get it at some point
That outro with the drone ambient music was perfect 👌🏼👌🏼. Stunning footage
Good video Matt 👍
Cracking one Matt, I must be honest its good honest stuff when plod turn up. When are they going to learn

At the start I was expecting Bazil Faulty to show up, thought you was at Fawlty friggin Towers.
Keep up the good work and keep em peeled.
@d c Really ! Ha Ha
Great video Matt 👍🏼
You'll have to start using infra red camera's in buildings without torches.
Haven't the police got crimes to solve? Obviously they don't have proper criminals in Torquay or they wouldn't be hassling you!
Well here is the amusing thing, what he is doing is a crime that at the least can get a caution to £1500 fine to ,5 years in jail. Look I love his videos but saying something stupid like " do the police not have real crimes to solve " just makes you look stupid

@@EQINOX187 Its not classed as a crime as was open a not a home ?????
As they didn't break in it's not a criminal matter.

Amazing uk police still respond to crime that isnt online
So Matt is this the place girls learn how to be buggered as children?... @13:48 You answered my question. 😬🙃😀
He sure knows a lot about being pervy.
well they do where i live in the rhondda valleys and its annoying and loud
And the doors aren't even locked 🤣
Amazing drone footage 👌
What did they do with Angel when you got arrested???!
they put her in a kennels
Next time go to the guards (security) head office and when police arrives there you be like : 🤷🏻♂️ whats happened? We havent seen anyone...
Thats why there were so many bang broked doors! Police hasbeen breaking in and entry from those to look for explorers!

alright Matthew looking forward to watching this video sounds interesting Matthew hope you find ok Matthew 👍
Fun explore and interesting place.
Too bad about the police. Hope you win your $6,000!!
Thanks Matthew!
👍👍👍👊😎
What are the chances they’ll pay the £6k?? Bunch of arses!

PLEASE do a special about your run -ins with the police and the aftermath!
Great video mate 👌
Nice video matt.
Did u ever get the £6000 Matt?
They don’t want you on the roof. Maybe there’s something good on the roof 😂
They probably not know we are here withe the boards on window all the whole stood under a cctv cam pmsl
Interesting Matthew Thank you

They like an easy collar, as they're not good enough to really make an impact on crime.
Be a bi like the girls school you'd get on Carry On Camping with Barbara Windsor...Babs and Fanny 😂
So you got your 6K then I take it? xD 🤣
I wish they realize the ROI that you provide...
by having you go do this so I don't have to is just a win-win for everybody.
I enjoy the videos keep fighting that good fight!
Liked the vlog from Margaret P
you got banged up for civil trespass they only had the right to escort you from the property
. did you not film the encounter as its public interest .
The only crime is all these places empty when thousands are waiting for homes even if it was just short term housing. It was definitely wrongful arrest. 🤨
Very tidy garden
Good Man, sadly its the norm for the Police to be incompetent.
Lol loved the police part haha 😄 yeh defo go infra red if hear them. Think I would have hid in a room and wedge the door so it's appears locked haha
You should of gone in the building from that outside the ladder then it would of been harder for them to find you ' it's funny hiding in the Showers lol 😂
If the police isn't stretched enough financially, you decide to put in a claim for "£6000"? When it was your own doing. Morally I think this is wrong.
Yep not content with wasting 6 officers time, he now wants thousands off the budget which will lead to even less tax payer money going to policing

So they offered you a lift and you willingly accepted it? While of course you were out raising money for Mother Teresa and her poor (attempting to).
Why do you keep writing "where" instead of "were"? It's confusing!

I don't believe in religious Matt
So many abandoned places that could be done up for refugees
Unfortunate title.
