I love each and every video you do on The Beatles, you put in so much time and effort and for me so far away in Australia it’s like having my own tour guide. Cheers Paul.
Fantastic video Tudor well put together and Wow what a start at 1:30 with the police car and the poor lad on his bike.....Very enjoyable and l👀king forward to plenty more........Great stuff.....Cheers from Phil
I think the Police were watching a particular member of the public walking on the bridge and had to do a quick turn around. Trouble is they just decided a UTurn on tower bridge. Certainly not something I’d consider trying. Then following the incident, no one hung around to exchange details!
Evening Tudor loved the footage I did the mad day out my self ,but not all of it so I thank you .I met the artist who designed the statue of the four Beatles stood on top of the old street round about I bought his book he was signing that day at old street underground . Before it shut for upgrading. it was a fab day so this footage is great .
Great video! Loads of pics used I hadn’t seen before. Have visited St Pancras Old Church several times and also Old Street station in about 2011 - all I could trace even then was the office block featured in the background. However, you can see more of the Wapping river pictures by taking a boat along the Thames, including the ramp down to the water.
It’s funny. Before researching for the video, I was only aware of a few pictures. Now I’ve connected the dots (for myself anyway) I can see how those pictures fit together. You should see the many many I left out of the video. A quick google of “A mad day out” and select images and you’ll enter a rabbit hole 🤣
Love this. I'm in London for a few days for the blur Wembley gigs. I'm definitely going to do some Beatles London spots. Hopefully a spot of lunch on the mad day out bench!
thank you! When I was with school in London and Cambridge for a week we had just a free afteroon to go around so I had to go to Abbey Road of course. I just became a big Beatles fan after listenting to them for some years. But on every corner I imagined the Beatles where there and took pics. When I was back on train at St. Pancreas I tought looking into the park for a second "that looks like that park where they took pics on the mad day out" I just wanted to imagine it. And doing some research later I realized it was really that park. It felt great.
Wonderful idea for a video! I recall as a kid getting the Red album and that studying that gatefold photo - great to actually see the location. And several photos I've never seen!
Remember THE LIVERBIRDS,the first all female rock band from England from 1963 to 1968 ,they toured all over Europe and England, released albums and singles
Fantastic video thank you! I was fortunate enough to get to St Pancras Old Church on a beautiful Tuesday in April to see some of these locations. Can highly recommend it to all Beatles fans!
Even though I was 13 back then and thought I saw all photos Beatles, some of these photos, to me, are my first time viewing them. (Sacramento, California...here) Great resource video!
Hi Tudor, well done, another great video. As always a pleasure to watch. Nice to see you out and about again !!!. Looking forward to the next one, all the best, kev chatterley.
Your efforts are much appreciated . Love how you superimposed yourself on those St. Pancras sections! I went by one of those sites without even knowing of it so I thank you for the information on the site. I was also lucky enough to see Paul's house with the gates open and talked to the housekeeper at the time and we were able to do some video of her and the entrance to that house - that was great timing ! Enjoy always your videos and catch you on the next one !!!
Wonderful video, Tudor. I always learn something from them. My family & I are planning to stop at St. Pancras on our first trip to London at the end of July. Those are definitely the most iconic images taken on that long ago day. The photo of the group (& Yoko!) mingled in with the crowd is one of my favorite images of The Beatles. What a shame many of the locations have changed (e.g. Old Street Roundabout) or are inaccessible (river access at Wapping Pier Head). You did a splendid job regardless. Thank you. Cheers from America!
Brilliant location work! Hadn’t realised that shoot was so long! The rosette Paul was wearing (I believe) was not Liverpool related but taken from one of the councillors who were electioneering in the area (street) Informative and interesting video - I enjoyed the tour! Thank you!
And you happening to catch the run-in between the police car and the cyclist early in the video - solid gold, Mr Smith! I love watching your videos tracing the Fabs footsteps. Came across the Knole Park/Strawberry Fields video a while back, and that hooked me in. I think I've seen pretty much every other video since, so wishing you well and keep up the good work, fella. Very entertaining, especially for a Beatles nut like me....!
I considered not showing the collision but then I thought...nah it's real life right. So I blurred the number plate at least. Thanks for being part of my Beatles video journey.
circa 19:07 this beatles' photo shoot is very beautiful with pink and white flowers (might be 'タチアオイ[tachi-aoi]' in japanese). which have blossoms in may to june. this video is very vey nice. thank you so much. [とても素敵です。ありがとうございました。そして、ごくろうさまでした。]
Hi Tudor. I’ve done the St Pancras Church site, and Cavendish of course, but this was brilliantly researched and filmed. Thank you for taking on the London traffic as well. Very best.
@@TudorSmith It is! I’m in London this week with work and I wouldn’t dream of driving around. Wondering what’s up your sleeve for the next videos…. Beatles houses outside London?
Thanks for taking the time to do this. I hope you took Mal's advice to do it on a Sunday! I've been past all of those places at some point over the years but never taken the trouble to photograph them, or in many cases, even stop and look. There are so many interesting Beatles related locations in London, you could probably get several months worth of content filming them! One thing that puzzles me about Paul's geodesic dome is that the floor seems to be at a different level in some of the shots. Actually , what even is a geodesic dome? Thanks again for taking the trouble to put this all together.
Sadly not - I was there on a Saturday. Any future London fillings will definitely take place on a Sunday - and early too. Regarding the geodesic dome (a place for reflection and meditation apparently), I wonder if the floor can lift and drop. Some pictures clearly show it.
Thanks Tudor!! I was almost waiting for one on the mad day out 😊 (except the St Pancras church which I took quite a few pics and videos, literally under heavy rain on a very cold December day!) Im getting back to Londis come August and will again follow your path for this one ❤😊😊😊
Cool to see some of the locations from pictures I’ve seen… but had no idea about where or when they were taken…& on a personal note July 28 is my birthday 🎂… so : “Thank you very much… and God bless you…you’ve got a lucky face”🌞
great video thanks....i'll be visiting there in the very near future now i know were to go...lol yea i think it would be fare to say the seat has been moved...2 reasons, you practically get a full side on view of the statue in the original photo were the bench was, and the seat was clearly fully on the straight concrete path and not were it is now. i think you were right the first time the bench with the drunk sitting on is by the entrance.
Thanks for what you do and showing all the locations. I appreciate that as I can’t travel anymore. I did find that one set of photos where John is lying down like he’s sick and everyone looking at him concerned rather strange. I didn’t find it funny. It was bizarre actually. What do you think? Otherwise I like most of the photos along with the ones where they are hidden in the Garden with the children. Thanks!
THANK YOU for this amazing heart warming video. The clip at 19:07 in the "garden"....I have that poster!!! And always wondered where it was taken. It will mean so much more now with your efforts to show it. Blessings from Az., great job and again thank you!!!
My efforts lol. I tried my best. Actually I do appreciate your comment and I’m glad I was able to show the location and that perhaps it brought it to life for you 🙏
Is it all a busman's holiday, tudor, you driving us around the Beatle world? I'm sure you enjoy making these videos as much as I love watching them. You're very easy on the ear and The Beatles, well, medicine for the ear!
@@TudorSmith Absolutely! I had the same feeling at the Albert Dock seeing the Beatles Museum, but maybe a trip to Strawberry Fields or The Cavern, or the Eleanor Rigby's grave would be unforgettable, too.
Great video Tudor! I noticed Yoko standing in front of John in the picture where the lads are mingling with the crowd. Do you think that Yoko's constant presence may have been one of the causes of the stress they were experiencing while recording the White Album?
I do think she was a hindrance, especially when John and Paul used to bounce off each other to make things work musically. Yoko took that focus away and it must have been frustrating for Paul
Wonderful video Tudor and great research. I love watching these location videos. St Pancras gardens look beautiful and I'll make a point of visiting on my next visit to London. Isn't it ironic that capitalism is in full swing to visit Karl Marx's grave? Thanks Tudor
This year we will visited London, St. Pancras is definitly one destination . As a huge Beatles fan, I can't explain how much anticipation i feel. For me it's holy ground, walking were once the Beatles have their mad day. I think i have neatly all the pictures, so i can recreate this pictures. And yes, I think i am little bit obsessed about the Beatles😅😅😅. Many greetings from Hamburg.
Love these walkabouts with the overlaying!... Thank you Tudor!🙏 Being a watch affectionado, I also noticed your orange dial watch... can you tell me what is the watch you're wearing?👍✌️⌚️
BTW the watch is a Seiko 5 Sport. A gift from my son as he’d remembered me talking about always wanting an orange faced watch 😊 and the only watch brand I’ve chosen to wear since being a young teenager is Seiko
@@TudorSmith Nice watch ... I love Seiko and the fact that it's a gift from your son makes it even better! You say running out of Ideas!... Btw i saw your vids about standing stones and really liked that to!... Would like to see walkabouts about Winston Churchill and wwII and the History of the U.K. if possible... but dunno that may be for another channel!? At any rate, Love all that you do ! Thank you for your efforts!🤗 ..
Tudor, thanks for the videos. Have you any plans to go to Weybridge (St George`s Hill), where is John`s house Kenwood (where majority of Beatles songs are written), Sunny Heights, Ringo`s house also in Weybridge and I believe George`s house Kinfauns was also near by?
Enjoyable as always. The band's last cheerful sojourn for a photoshoot, I believe. No idea why that police car at 1:20 was acting so erratically, though. No lights or siren - how was the cyclist meant to see it from behind the other vehicles? If it had been an ordinary driver doing that and the police had spotted them, there would have been consequences. You mention below that they seemed to be watching someone on the bridge. No excuse. You don't need to suddenly veer across the road, and ram a cyclist, to do that. 6:58 The Inner Light, you might say!
GREAT JOB! These are seldom seen but much loved images here in the U.S. Known, loved, but not exactly standard fare over here. If I ever make it to England you can be my tour guide! LOL! Very much enjoyed it.
Ha ha well I appreciate you making the trip to let me know. I love spending an evening watching UA-cam videos on the TV but there’s no way to leave comments eh!
@@TudorSmith There doesn't appear to be. But being in my 70s I'm not really that savvy when it comes to things like this. In order to operate my (so called) smart TV, I need to use two remotes. I'm sure there's a way that I could narrow that down to one but this works just fine so I'm not going to tempt fate by messing with it.
People under 30, do you listen to classic rock from 1955-1980? That was 60 years ago! For an experiment, ask people that grew up then, if they were listening to music from the 1890s, and watch the looks they give you.
Hello Tudor! Nasci no Brazil, no distante ano de 1960, onde desde a minha infância ouvi a música dos Beatles, mais tarde na adolescência consegui ver os filmes da banda e depois com o salário do meu primeiro emprego comecei a comprar todos os álbuns! Um dos meus sonhos é conhecer Londres e atravessar a faixa da Abbey Road, enquanto isto não acontece, pelo menos tem você para mostrar estes lugares para quem vive tão longe! Desculpe por não escrever em inglês e parabéns por seu fantástico trabalho!!! Saúde e paz! Beatles 4ever !!!
Google translate helped me read your message. Thanks for taking the time to write and thank you for watching and coming along on my Beatle adventures 👍
That was super Tudor, except I can't believe you didn't break into Paul's house to superimpose yourself on the geodesic dome! Do we know why the Beatles didn't go into Highgate cemetery to stand in front of Karl Marx's grave? Surely they had the 1968 equivalent of a tenner. They definitely missed a trick there considering the other monuments they could have posed by. I do love the St. Pancras Old Church part of the Mad Day Out though, especially when the photos feature "ordinary" people, especially the kids. What a thrill it must have been for them.
I should have (starts singing *he broke into the geodesic window*) 🤣 Don was wise to include all those people at St Pancras but then as a war time photographer he was used to photographing people but to get the Beatles mingling with the crowd was inspired! I wonder if the folk got paid for having their images forever immortalised on the inside of Beatles covers?
That was a strange incident that occurred with the police car involving a cyclist while talking about the Beatles considering how John Lennon's mother died. knocked down and killed by a car driven by an off duty policeman. and later on in 1980 John Lennon was fatally shot and was rushed to St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital Centre in the back of a police car, where he died.
Hi Tudor, love your work here .. a question of a technical nature..in alot of your videos you have a link to another of your earlier videos, so you might say " click on the link appearing now to see that video" ..how do you do that, what is that function called, do you do it in the video editing software or on youube ? Sorry was trying to think who does this a bit in their vids, remembered you do xxx Thank you
Hi thanks for asking. Once my video is ready to be released, I view it in UA-cam studio and in the Details section, I select “Cards”. It opens a new window and allows me to insert a card (link) at any point on the time line. You can search YT for a tutorial on inserting cards. There are many 👍
My Dad (3rd from right next to GH) and Aunt (girl in pink) are in the image. I'm thinking of reaching out to try and find those still alive and re-enact the photo.
I as an above average Beatles' fan am amazed at how many Beatles pictures I have never seen, there must be a million pro pics out there? PS Please sort out the crackling audio problems that were prevalent through out this vid for future productions.
I love each and every video you do on The Beatles, you put in so much time and effort and for me so far away in Australia it’s like having my own tour guide. Cheers Paul.
Glad you like them! It’s like having a personal mystery tour 🤣 and I really enjoy making the walkabout videos 👍
@@TudorSmith we enjoy watching them 👍🏼
I love these locations, especially that it seems everywhere you turn in certain parts of England, there's breathtaking scenery. Beatles or not!
There really are some beautiful sights to see. I find it odd that so many people walk about with their heads down

Fantastic ! Thank you for taking us on this Beatles trip of nostalgia ✨✨🍏
Great Tudor, well done. I enjoyed that. Your overlays were very good. Great comparisons...so much has changed in the last, almost 6 decades.
Thanks a lot 🙏 It is getting harder to recreate Beatle locations now that a lot of changes have taken place!
That was excellent, informative fun Tudor - thanks for taking us along!
Thanks for tagging along 😊
Thanks Tudor, . Love your video's especially the Beatles location films. Cheers
Thanks 🙏
Oh wow! Brilliant! I've always been fascinated by the Beatles' MDO! Thank you! Peace and Love from Portland, Oregon, USA!

Excellent upload thank you!
Thanks very much 🙏
What the hell was that police car doing ?, That lad should have fell off his bike and put a claim in.....one law for one, one law for another !
Both parties left the scene of an accident. 🤷🏻♂️
So the cops just bang up the guy and the bike and don't care. What jerks!
Agree. That was really stupid and could have truly hurt someone.
And I thought American cops are bad.
Thanks for the Photo😂locations...lovely interesting 😊
My pleasure 😊

The random house they were photographed in front of looks pretty similar to Aunt Mimi's place, John's childhood home.

Love these walkabouts with the overlaying!... Thank you Tudor!🙏 Being a watch affectionado, I also noticed your orange dial watch... can you tell me what is the watch you're wearing?👍✌️⌚️
I love making the walkabouts - but I’m running out of ideas now 🙁
BTW the watch is a Seiko 5 Sport. A gift from my son as he’d remembered me talking about always wanting an orange faced watch 😊 and the only watch brand I’ve chosen to wear since being a young teenager is Seiko
@@TudorSmith Nice watch ... I love Seiko and the fact that it's a gift from your son makes it even better! You say running out of Ideas!... Btw i saw your vids about standing stones and really liked that to!... Would like to see walkabouts about Winston Churchill and wwII and the History of the U.K. if possible... but dunno that may be for another channel!? At any rate, Love all that you do ! Thank you for your efforts!🤗
..
Sounds like a plan 👍
Tudor, thanks for the videos. Have you any plans to go to Weybridge (St George`s Hill), where is John`s house Kenwood (where majority of Beatles songs are written), Sunny Heights, Ringo`s house also in Weybridge and I believe George`s house Kinfauns was also near by?
I’ve often thought about it but all I’d end up doing is getting to some closed gates (I think!)
I actually knew one of the people in the gatefold picture… I met him later on aged 18 at work in 1976…..spooky eh?
That is spooky. He’s now immortalised on the album centre spread 👍
Enjoyable as always. The band's last cheerful sojourn for a photoshoot, I believe. No idea why that police car at 1:20 was acting so erratically, though. No lights or siren - how was the cyclist meant to see it from behind the other vehicles? If it had been an ordinary driver doing that and the police had spotted them, there would have been consequences. You mention below that they seemed to be watching someone on the bridge. No excuse. You don't need to suddenly veer across the road, and ram a cyclist, to do that.
6:58 The Inner Light, you might say!
Yes it was all very strange so I just kept the footage in. Inner light - I like that 🤣
8:04 could be the street where they filmed A Hard Days Night Ringo strolling around with his camera...
I've not seen that movie in such a long time....but I reckon a video on on the london locations would make for something interesting to watch!
GREAT JOB! These are seldom seen but much loved images here in the U.S. Known, loved, but not exactly standard fare over here. If I ever make it to England you can be my tour guide! LOL! Very much enjoyed it.
Watched this on TV and came back over onto the computer so I could tell you that I really very much enjoyed this one! Thanks so much!
Ha ha well I appreciate you making the trip to let me know. I love spending an evening watching UA-cam videos on the TV but there’s no way to leave comments eh!
@@TudorSmith There doesn't appear to be. But being in my 70s I'm not really that savvy when it comes to things like this. In order to operate my (so called) smart TV, I need to use two remotes. I'm sure there's a way that I could narrow that down to one but this works just fine so I'm not going to tempt fate by messing with it.
People under 30, do you listen to classic rock from 1955-1980? That was 60 years ago!
For an experiment, ask people that grew up then, if they were listening to music from the 1890s, and watch the looks they give you.
17:52 I always think, the old man was only reading the newspaper.
I think I’d read somewhere that he was sleeping!
Hello Tudor!
Nasci no Brazil, no distante ano de 1960, onde desde a minha infância ouvi a música dos Beatles, mais tarde na adolescência
consegui ver os filmes da banda e depois com o salário do meu primeiro emprego comecei a comprar todos os álbuns!
Um dos meus sonhos é conhecer Londres e atravessar a faixa da Abbey Road, enquanto isto não acontece, pelo menos tem você para mostrar estes lugares para quem vive tão longe!
Desculpe por não escrever em inglês e parabéns por seu fantástico trabalho!!!
Saúde e paz!
Beatles 4ever !!!
Google translate helped me read your message. Thanks for taking the time to write and thank you for watching and coming along on my Beatle adventures 👍
@@TudorSmith 👍
That was super Tudor, except I can't believe you didn't break into Paul's house to superimpose yourself on the geodesic dome!
Do we know why the Beatles didn't go into Highgate cemetery to stand in front of Karl Marx's grave? Surely they had the 1968 equivalent of a tenner. They definitely missed a trick there considering the other monuments they could have posed by. I do love the St. Pancras Old Church part of the Mad Day Out though, especially when the photos feature "ordinary" people, especially the kids. What a thrill it must have been for them.
I should have (starts singing *he broke into the geodesic window*) 🤣
Don was wise to include all those people at St Pancras but then as a war time photographer he was used to photographing people but to get the Beatles mingling with the crowd was inspired! I wonder if the folk got paid for having their images forever immortalised on the inside of Beatles covers?
A DAY IN THE LOAF by APOLOGETIX a great Beatles parody for you to here, it's on UA-cam
That was a strange incident that occurred with the police car involving a cyclist while talking about the Beatles considering how John Lennon's mother died. knocked down and killed by a car driven by an off duty policeman. and later on in 1980 John Lennon was fatally shot and was rushed to St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital Centre in the back of a police car, where he died.
Interesting. I hadn’t considered those coincidences.
Here we go
Roll up rollup for the mystery tour!
@@TudorSmith I’m singing that in my head now! 🤣
Hi Tudor, love your work here .. a question of a technical nature..in alot of your videos you have a link to another of your earlier videos, so you might say " click on the link appearing now to see that video" ..how do you do that, what is that function called, do you do it in the video editing software or on youube ?
Sorry was trying to think who does this a bit in their vids, remembered you do xxx
Thank you
Hi thanks for asking. Once my video is ready to be released, I view it in UA-cam studio and in the Details section, I select “Cards”. It opens a new window and allows me to insert a card (link) at any point on the time line.
You can search YT for a tutorial on inserting cards. There are many 👍
My Dad (3rd from right next to GH) and Aunt (girl in pink) are in the image. I'm thinking of reaching out to try and find those still alive and re-enact the photo.
Wow that’s amazing! You should try and make contact with others. Thanks for sharing!
Apparently they wanted some new photos for fan pics….which was the main reason for the day out.
Indeed 👍
I'm not sure the old chap at St Pancras was drunk, I thought he was just an old boy reading his Sunday paper, oblivious to the world (and the Fabs!)
Perhaps he wasn’t drunk but the did read somewhere that he was sleeping and drinking didn’t wake up while the lads were being photographed!
I as an above average Beatles' fan am amazed at how many Beatles pictures I have never seen, there must be a million pro pics out there? PS Please sort out the crackling audio problems that were prevalent through out this vid for future productions.
Yeah the mic was playing up. I only noticed it after doing the video and I wasn’t planning to redo the whole day!
good video have done the st pancras church site a bit a go does paul still own the house
I believe he does still own it. A closed gate and CCTV camera is a good give-away 😊
