Well done

Back in the 1950's I lived in Margate just up the coast from Ramsgate.

Very interesting,happy to subscribe.

That was excellent - well presented and very informative. I love walking along the Regent's Canal. Long may we have it to enjoy!

I’ve worked on The River Wey (Which I think is older than the Regents) at Godalming & Guildford. Use to take boats from there up to Weybridge Marine Ltd for repair work. My Great Grandfather use to do the same route drawn by a horse. He carried grain from The London Harvester II as far as Guildford on Perseverance IV Or Speedwell Barges. (Hope I got those names right) I Love our History so much. Another great addition to your channel Sir. Thank you 🫡🇬🇧

As someone not very familiar with London, this video is absolutely fascinating.

Excellent. Very high quality. Superb documentary.

Pete, this is superbly researched and created. I lived on the Regents canal for a while, as one of your boaty neighbours, but your film has given me a new appreciation of its history. Well done.

Great stuff, you deserve a lot more subscibers.

Cant praise this highly enough, fascinating, informative and very well delivered, thank you. I am a canal lover and live close to the Trent and Mersey Canal at Shardlow near Derby. This was once a major inland port, nowhere near as big as London of course but the history is there also, hence my interest. Thank you very much.

Thank you for an excellent and instructive video. Reminded of a time, a long time age, of helping the narrow boat navigate the lock on the Grand Union as it passed through the lock at Watford. Those were the days !!

An excellent and informative documentary. I subscribe to a number of London focused history channels and I must commend you on the production quality of this channel. Many thanks. I look forward to viewing more. Cheers. Lance

Thank you for being you the fabulous ale house. The very foundations of the nation they created who we are and what we are. How have they been left off the economists list? Parliament and Westminster would be nothing without the foundations being maintained at not only all cost but to bring them back Because history is about the circle of how something happened and why did I like to take this moment to thank Fiona Bruce Philomena Cunk and Philip mould for they are the backbone of all of what we are with history hiding waiting to be discovered. Knowledge is power without it. We are nothing. Regards Alan from down under. Thank you for being you. I’m sure his royal highness King Charles the third will put pressure and maybe install the web to make sure parliament and Westminster are adhering to supporting the foundations of the nation. It’s easy to understand the economy. All the sporting clubs King zone sport they say soccer And all other sports must support the system of the foundations of foundation who we are. We are and our culture. We need stonemasons carpenters and electricians. They come from nearly every country. Poland Russia all are welcome to restore old London town again. Thank you for being you. History is everything without it? We are nothing

What do you think about this video? I’d love to know your thoughts, which can help me improve future videos in the series.

In 2022, I had lunch at the Bank of England...one of my least favorite pubs. Had dinner at the Blackfriar....wonderful place.

Just found your wonderful channel. Visited The George in 1969 and Blackfriars in 1972. My in-laws met during WW2. Ruby, a Londoner who's dad worked for the railroad, and Reb, a barefoot Georgia moonshiner until drafted into the u.s. army. They met, fell in love, and married after 3 weeks. Their daughter, Maureen, and I loved visiting from Oregon. Cheers, lovely to see London again, and the pubs.

The 'idea' of a Theatre ship first came from Viv Stanshal in the late 1970's. He was the singer in the Bonzo Dog Band & had a theatre ship moored at Bristol Docks.

Very informative and interesting. I will certainly Like and Subscribe!

The conduits were everywhere ? That's interesting.

Informative and entertaining! Your general overview of the river's history is fascinating.

Turns out I lived one road away from the New River in Bounds Green, never knew it was there

No need for the text - those who want or need to read the narrative can turn on captions any time, but for those of us who find hem a distraction, it makes a video which could be very interesting into an unenjoyable experience.

Absolutely fascinating video. I have lived in and represented Stoke Newington for 37 years. So amazing to find out the origins of some of place names and many geographical features

I remember the DLR opening and how excited my children were to be sitting and the front of the train. The docks make a lovely day out. Your speakers across all your videos are fantastic . I am pleased to see your own sub titles back. Looking forward to your next video.

I must commend you on how clearly and confidently you speak . So well delivered. Thank you for another great video.

The New River. Something I have taken for granted. Really interesting. I will think of your video next time I see a Middleton Road. Thank you

I had not realised how much we need the Thames River Police. A great video. Your own sub titles are a great bonus as automated ones are not as accurate. On to your other videos now.

I have never given any thought to the River Thames Police and their work. Your video is an interesting insight into how they protect us and save lives. I also really like your own sub-titles. I see some people have said otherwise but automated ones are not nearly as accurate. Must have taken you a long time but definitely a bonus. On to your other videos now.

I often see New River signs out and about and have passed many a Myddleton Road. I knew a bit about the New River before but have learnt a whole lot more. Thank you.

My favourite one of your videos so far. Mac and Rob are so interesting. Very professionally delivered. Thanks.

I learnt so much about something I only had vague knowledge of thanks to you. So well delivered with great images.

The great British pub. Vic is fascinating. Will definitely book one of his walks. Great filming.

What a fantastic set of videos you have produced. All about lesser known things about our great city. So well produced. Well done and thanks you.

Absolutely brilliant video and the speakers were excellent, thank you for putting it together

Great video but having your own subtitles is very off-putting UA-cam generates its own subs so why would you need to add yours over the top?

Hi Peter, I was hoping that you would have covered my docks, the London Docks. Enjoyed the video anyway.

If you want to see the docklands of the 1970's, watch The Sweeney or The Professionals where many scenes were filmed around there

Sorry but I still hanker after the docks of old. As a young sailor joining a ship or returning home was full of adventure & romance. Sadly I was born a decade to late & the traditional cargo liners & reefers disappeared like smoke & London & Liverpool docks became deserted. I didn't get chance to have a belly full & loved the life. "Running away to sea" was still one way to see the world in the 70's All finished by 1983.

Great film packed with interesting new bits of information I didn't know! Thank you 👏

Absolutely fantastic video. So many delightful historical details about (my favourite part of) London. Thank you for putting it together.

Excellent video. Very informative.

This is great. This History of all the places I grew up in laid Bare. So much I didn't know.

how do I turn off the very annoying "subtitle texts" - the normal Ytube buttons make no difference..

History of livery companies? Or an advertisement for the worshipful company of haberdashers?

What a great way to spend 40 mins on youtube, this was interesting and informative, thanks guys

Just brilliant! Well done Peter!

Absolutely brilliant work , very interesting and informative video . I just found this channel . Please keep going . All the best CF

Well done Pete! We enjoyed the video.

"Then one day, government minister, Michael Heseltine..." What day, or at least what year, and minister of what?
