The Story of Waddingtons (MONOPOLY) - Documentary - In Full
In collaboration with Chapter 81, the documentary features John Watson, former managing director of Waddingtons during the 1970s, who offers an insider’s view of the company that became Britain’s leading manufacturer of board games and playing cards.
Waddingtons first began producing the UK version of Monopoly in 1936, selecting the now-famous London properties that have become synonymous with the game, but Leeds was the birthplace of Waddingtons, a company that played a pivotal role in the gaming industry from the 1930s onward.
Film: Simon Fogal/ Chapter 81
Voice and Narrative: Larry Budd
Commissioned by: LeedsBID as part of the MONOPOLY Leeds Takeover
Funded by: LeedsBID and Chapter 81
In addition to John Watson, the film also features insights from two other prominent figures who shed light on Leeds’ historical and cultural significance:
Kitty Ross, curator of Leeds history at Leeds Museums and Galleries, provides a deep dive into the city’s past, exploring how Waddingtons became a cornerstone of Leeds’ industrial heritage.
Professor Robert Shail, director of research at Leeds Beckett University, offers an academic perspective on the broader cultural impact of Waddingtons and its role in shaping the leisure activities of generations.

Wonderful documentary and charismatic presentation by a man who knows his business like no other
I saw this documentary promoted on Instagram. I really enjoyed it. I hope more people watch it.
How can I get ahold of you to buy a jukebox
Sick video, glad the place is getting coverage!
sar
He must be super comfortable that there’s only one whitey 😂. What a muppet!!
Phew, thank heavens the ratio suited Nihal 😓
He's got whitey outnumbered 3-1, so I'm sure Nihal is feeling at ease.
Hope there weren’t too many white people Nihal 🤦🏻♂️
He has a point. Who would want to be around you?
@@dustyautumn8780 Oh dear, I have some bad news. The Uk is majority white 😰. He best F off to his ancestral homeland.
MathsCity is great - family really enjoyed it!
What a legend ❤
Brilliant!

Nothing to be proud of here.
No blk people, and look how clean everything looks. Can you imagine?
I still shine a light for CJ Munroe (previously Glenn Richards before transition). Here she is . . . . . ua-cam.com/video/f9MM_CRyNlc/v-deo.html
i saw a couple people from this yesterday at the museum skating i was with my dad watching someone do a heelflip off a massive ledge
fucking right laugh🤣
i live in leeds dont know wtf this is about but the truth is leeds is a doss hole!!
the city centre is all jazzed up & smart these days but once you leave the city centre, that is where all the finery ends! in what seems like a 3 mile radius in all directions, you will be greeted with the real Leeds in all its down at heel glory. graffiti , rubbish & discarded trash afront the eye at every turn. once former working class areas turned into immigrant getto's no cohesion whatsoever, just different cultures , grouped together in lumps & scattered all over the inner city. basically if you're rich, a student or an immigrant then Leeds is appealing otherwise forget it, it's a depressing shit hole
Na miss kuna ang jukebox music sa philippines. Sana magkaruon ako nyan. Magkano kaya yan ngayon rez from manila philippines
