2025..The government now (labour) is putting the final nail in the coffin..

The voice over is familiar but I can't place him.

Visited Port Sunlight last weekend after years of wanting to go. It didn’t disappoint, ld love to live there!

Fascinating film. Wonder what happened to the plans at the end of the film?

Trouble is everything seems to get worse not better .electric teams now we are trying to invent electric buses cars etc the Victorians were more educated and craftmaship was outstanding compared to today we have gone backwards

My mum was born in Toxteth in 1945. She remembers how tough life was for her and her family right after WWII with all of the rationing.

I could be looking at my grandparents who from Liverpool

These Tunnels were already there long before, Tartaria and the mudfloods UA-cam, Built by the Tartarian Empire ❤

Its a bit cheaper on the T Flow system at £1.40 for cars but the registration cameras are not always reliable and you have to press the help button 😊

When we were kids in bootle we used to lift a man hole cover and go down there was a tunnel with mud and water think it flooded at tide but we would walk down them and go into the docks we used to go into some type ware house which had cages with spirits cigarettes cigars we were only kids and would just get small bag fulls of cigarettes wish I could do it now I be rich went back years after and there's building built were the man hole was 😢😢

Just a lot of memories of my childhood though all gone for ever but still alive in my memory, like Liverpool's overhead railway.

Liverpool was never a slave port. Slavery was not permitted in U.K. goods were taken from Liverpool to west Africa where they exchanged for slaves bought in the local slave markets for transport to north and South America. I’ve no idea why they call Liverpool a slave port. The slave ports were in Africa run by Africans. U.K. abolished the slave trade from Africa to the Americas in 1805. The U.K. blockaded African ports to stop the trade. The Africans slave traders were not happy with the U.K. law. They came to London to lobby parliament not to ban the slave trade in 1805

I enjoyed the video.I was born in Newcastle upon Tyne.Both Liverpool and Newcastle were ship building ports.I would say they are similar in many ways.

In the early 1970s I had a summer job in Vale Park looking after the bandstand arena for Uncle Norman and Aunty Barbara's 'Joytime' show for children. They were still going strong then. Every day hundreds would turn up to be entertained, many taking part in the talent competition. On Sundays visiting brass bands from all over the north west would play to large crowds and then perform again in the evenings in the old Floral Pavilion theatre. A great documentary, though I can't remember the name of the presenter.

All totally destroyed by Thatcher and now the Tories are hell bent on destroying the entire country and have almost succeeded.

potential yet never for the poor working man,,,, usa is the place to live life

Constant flow of traffic?? What an absolute bl00dy joke, ever tried getting through on a match day?! A complete nightmare!

Are those docks tunnels off the Queens way, which used be traffic lighted, still closed off?

This is wonderful . Thank you

My Home for over 65 years, how it has changed...

I saw Hetty King at the Floral Pavillon. Possibly the last living person to see her.

Tunnels Police Force. What a joke. Please tell your veiwers that THEY are not part of Merseyside Constabulary.

Lovely. And now, 60 odd years later, the tories are doing their best to put the finishing touches on the third-worlding of the great British nation, all while their backbencher MP's are stealing all they can. Don't get wrong, the other parties are not much better. Damn shame, Britain deserves better

I remember in april 1969 as a 5yr old walking from vale park with my dad seeing all the fire hoses outside the tower grounds i have happy memories of vicky rd the golden goose the pier the lighthouse and NB baths and derby baths which where the coldest baths going even in the summer' NB has the best panoramic view for sunsets down by the fort the sun seems massive with orange and deep reds

Sorry but that music is really intrusive.

Along its journey to today somehow liverpool lost its way. I was born in Liverpool and in the 60's there was optimism and hope but in the 70's it all went sour, it is taking a long time to recover.

That brought back a few memories. Such a pity it can't be brought back to the original high standard holiday venue. My father was Pier Master of New Brighton Pier circa 1955/56. Anyone remember him, Ted Barnes?

I often visit Port Sunlight for its beauty,I am so lucky to have this on my doorstep.

Great little doco that, nice one!

How is New Brighton looking today?

Sad to see, maybe everyone here have passed away

Just amazing, looked fantastic

هذه المدينة كانت و لازالت جميلة و تحفة فنية

Seem to have lost the commentary between 12.22 and 12.28 🤐, about influenza? Somewhat EGGSasperating. 😉

The picture of the men at 12:52 my great grandad Is next to the ladder on the left against the wall,, I have this very picture with some of the men’s names written on the back and his original payslip

Brilliant engineering

Thank you for such a wonderful documentary. It brought back so many memories. When I worked at Wallasey Borough Council Town Hall, 1958-63, Joy Hockey would come in frequently seeking planning approval for her plans. A very talented architect and a lovely person. My mother told me that, just before WW2, one of the Figure of Eight buggies flew off the top tight bend and sailed over the promenade to crash onto the beach, with the loss of lives. Great to see the WW2 DUKW being a tourist attraction immediately post-war. I have always remembered my ride, but never seen a video of one in action there. After the war, there was often a sign on the promenade "Don't forget the diver". A legless man would seek donations for jumping off the prom into the sea. I expect that he was an injured war vet. R.I.P. The Tower Grounds were always a delight, especially the miniature railway, the dodgems and The Waltzer. The Tower ballroom was incredible; the finest in the North of England and possibly in the UK. It has a sprung floor that continually "creaked" if there were few dancers; 2,000 folk dancers and it seemed quite "empty". Superb sound system. That was avery fine band. Wednesday nights were typically free entrance - one just needed to find the man who went around handing out free tickets at the nearby Lakeside Bar or other bars, or in the road. Weekend dancing was usually tremendous for the dancing and meeting folk. The Palace Amusement building had some fine rides .... dodgems, car racing, and a fierce "giant bullet" that swung around fiercely. And a "secret" bar underground, the name of which eludes me at this moment. (Shame on me) I have often wondered how High the top diving board was. It seemed dreadfully high. The Royal - a fine little cinema that showed "B" horror movies every Sunday night. Often with some "encouragement". I recall on one Sunday there being a large "bucket of blood" in the foyer, in keeping with the movie's title. So, so much in the documentary. Possibly the only thing that I was hoping for to see something of The Kraal Club (set up by John Stanley and John Pennington), that I always felt was far finer than The Cavern. So, thank you so much.

This is a very good , interesting and informative history commentary of New Brighton. Thank you so much.

in my Liverpool home we speak with an accent exceeding lee rear, if you want a cathedral we've got one to spare in my Liverpool home when the Gerrys bombed us thank god said me arl feller the peir heads still there in my Liverpool home. way back in the 40s I met Bridget macan she said your not much I want a man I want 6 kids and house in Speke the flesh was willing but the spirit was weak in my Liverpool home we speak with an accent exceeding lee rear thank god said me arl feller my Liverpool still there. the Hollywood butler. Scouse power.

All Gone we know who help to put the knife in our back. A woman who wanted to close the City just 20's years later.

The funny accent on the commentator lol

Great video of the past . EVERTON FC THE ORIGINALS 1878

Read ‘Secret Liverpool’ by Mike Keating. You will enjoy this view of the city.

Lad this would’ve been heavy, such a loss the boys 😢

Greet that these old films have survived, gives us a good view of the old days. Cheers

Lived through it. They absolutely lied as to what they were about and just look at us and the city now...Turkish haircut and a curry anybody?

The liars that inform Wikipedia say the Irish descent in Liverpool amounts to just over 1% of the current population. If that were truly the case then the Roman Catholic Church would never have attempted to build (and they did) the world's largest cathedral in Liverpool.

Picture includes one of the toll booth millionaires

Beautiful village..to me the biggest historic event there was it was the first place the beatles ever played together as the x4 we know today

Built on the exploitation on the Congo. Funny nobody seemed to mention it.
