Great video. The wee cottage on Saddell Beach is primarily used as a "beach hut' for the huge manor house that sits just off the beach. We had visited twice before I finally realised that the cottage was situated where it was - given that it's hidden at the very far end of the beach. You were also very close to the front cover location of the M.O.K. single when you were on the main street in Campbeltown. Davaar island is a short 5 minute drive away.
If you watch the Live In New York concert, when the camera is on John's left, you can see a scar under John's chin. If you look at the photos from the time of the crash, he has a beard, but in the hospital he is clean shaven.
Thanks so much T.S. for this amazing journey and I learned so much more about those sites. So thanks to you for I may never get that chance to get there personally.. I finally got to see video a few months later so I am trying to catch up with your videos and I just finished your Back to the Egg one too and it was fascinating as well. You also gave me the idea to record side A of Double Fantasy with Milk and Honey (John's songs) Great job !!
Thankyou what a wonderful trip you had a great insight learnt so much and the Scenery wow I felt relaxed just watching this you to look relax as well thank you again
Hi Tudor i found this channel here on youtube and its all about the beatles, i subscribed ,you maybe know it already ? it s really really interesting and so i decided to sent it to you. check it out. Here it is, ua-cam.com/users/ParlogramAuctions
Great research Tudor. I've watched and commented on Craigs videos on both his channels, Craig Duncan and Fludded. The little building on the Kintyre video has been altered since the video was filmed, i found that little fact fascinating, for some reason. The lean to was removed. I think Shakin Stevens took the Green Door.
Really well done and moving video. I am a nostalgic person who tends to romanticize childhood, and especially that part where you refer to John's stays in Durness during his childhood, touched me. Thank you.
Thank you so much 🙏 having made all My Beatles walkabout videos, I’ve found it all quite moving in ways more than just listening to their music - I’ve had a sense of walking in their footsteps. I found the whole Scotland trip quite intimate. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you once again Tudor, since first seeing the mull of kintyre video as a child on top of the pops in the 1970,s. I became a mccartney/ beatles fan straight away. So your video brought back so many happy memories for me. I always look forward to your videos. Always interesting and very entertaining. Thanks again, all the best, kev
Seeing McCartneys farmhouse almost up close, WOW!! I doubt Paul has spent much time there at all in the last 30 years really. He enjoys warmer climates now like St,Barts in the Caribbean. There’s also the memories of living there with Linda and the children all those years ago which undoubtedly resurface while being there.
Thank you so much again! So many new and interesting facts about the Beatles. I really would like to support you on trip to Hamburg, in case you ever plan it)
This is brilliant. You should if get a chance do The Johnny Gentle tour. Apparently the singed their first autographs just outside Banffwhere I was born when they crashed their van…..blows my mind
Hi Tudor, I really like this channel, especially the Beatle-related locations, etc.... Filming locations as well. Hope you can get back to Scotland eventually and squeeze in the 1960 Johnny Gentle tour locations. I have a few suggestions for possible future videos. I don't think you have been to Chiswick House yet? Unless I missed it. The other suggestion I think would be really cool would be a video or two on some filming locations for The Avengers, specifically the Diana Rigg episodes.(Ok, maybe a few Linda Thorson ones lol) But there were some exterior locations they used for sure, especially from the 67' season episodes. I don't know if any of these locations are known or documented, or if they are accessible or private, but that would be some cool videos for sure I think if you can find the locations!
Cheers. I've definitely got a Johnny Gentle video on the cards. If I can't get back up to Scotland soon then I'll have to do it at my desk. you can't beat an "on location" video though in my opinion...and I seem to be getting a name for myself for doing them 🤣 I was never into the Avengers and know very little about the series other than Steed, and Diana Rigg or Joanna Lumney being his side kicks. I think I'd be a bad commentator for such videos!!!
Tudor you are great with your timbre and stories not known to me you are a world champion. I still have to go back to doing it and I have neglected to watch all the episodes. Regards Mariusz from Poland, I lived in the UK for 15 years .
Such a shame you didn't make it to the North East for Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray but come on by sometime, it's more compact than your road trip here. Imagine The Beatles coming up in 1960 in a van on those older roads before the upgrades to dual carriageway etc! The A9 has been transformed beyond recognition even since I started driving in the late 80s. The Berrydale Braes were notorious but now there's a flyover. Amazing how John was driving an Austin Maxi on his trip to Durness. I'm sure he'd have travelled up the A9. But. yeah he was blind as a bat, so it'd been a ropey road trip. He crashed the car on a day trip to Tongue some 30-miles from the Durness croft. Spot on about Double Fantasy/Milk and Honey being a better single album with John's songs. And lastly thanks for mentioning Albert Bonici from here in Elgin, Moray who promoted The Beatles first tour of 1963 and other shows in late 1963 and early 1964.
The more I tink about it...I said I'd sit at my desk to do a "Tour" video but actually, it'd be more fun to do another road trip. I'll see if I can make some plans. I'll get in touch and maybe we can hook up...you could be the tour guide for my next video 👍
Thanks Tudor for the tour. Watching your coverage of Kintyre and John’s memorial garden the thought occurred to me (my opinion) that John would never have written (sung) a song like Mull of Kintyre. (I don’t think it has stood the test of time) It demonstrates however how diverse writers they could be. Kudos for sleeping in your car!
Excellent video! Unfortunately the house in Durness where john spent his holidays is no longer the same as shown in the video as it has been entirely rebuilt.
A very fine and informative video, as always. Denny Laine is not playing (or pretends to be playing) a Gibson in the video for "Mull of Kintyre". That is in fact a Swedish Hagström!
@@TudorSmith It's a "Hagström Swede" which was heavily inspired by Gibson Les Paul. The main difference you can easily spot is the shape of the headstock.
The comment about Double Fantasy and Milk and Honey being one great Lennon record was right on the money. The videos that you make are always so interesting and full of information regarding the Beatles. THANKS
Fascinating as ever Tudor. I particularly enjoyed the section on John's connection to Durness. I believe it was his Aunt "Mater" (Elizabeth Jane) who had moved up there. Incidentally, a small correction, when he stopped off in Liverpool it was to visit his Aunt "Harrie" (Harriet), not his step sister. In fact, it seems to be the case that this stop off was probably the last time John was ever in Liverpool.
Ah that makes sense. As I was saying it I had my doubts. I should have just said “family” 👍 Interesting that it would have been his last visit to Liverpool!
So interesting and informative...another grrrreat (with Scotish accent) video ! Love seeing Scotland where me Grandmum is from! Thanks again! Mr Smith!!!👍👍🏴🇬🇧🇨🇦
Great video. Brilliant that you found the Mull cottage and the landscape in front of it is instantly recognisable. Thanks for all the work in bringing us these. Do you remember Mike Berry as Mister Spooner ( I think!) in ‘Are you bring served?’ 😃
@@TudorSmith he was in Worzel Gummidge and also sang the awful "Blue Riband Blues" on the Blue Riband biscuit ad back in the day... pure awfulness... :D
One of the few good things about Scotland (of course I'm joking, there are many) is that there are no trespassing laws. Thanks for the great Beatles tours. It was interesting John and Paul's reaction to the Beatles splitting up. One went urban and one went rural.
@@TudorSmith Loved the sound of the seagulls in the background at the Lennon memorial. Poignant and beautiful. And, now that you mention it, I saw a photo of Lennon and Elton John recently in the 70s and John had a scar on the left side of his face - must have been from the crash.
Loved this Tudor! I went around Scotland (mainly Ayr and around that area) just prior to moving to Norway in 2008. Loved the scarcity of traffic on those country roads... would love to go back one day and just spend time going from town to town... would have loved to have reached Kintyre and that whole area. By the way Mull of Kintyre was my nans favourite song and played at her funeral... she was 51 in 1977 and managed to live to 95. Amazing that Paul could write songs to appeal to all generations...
Aw bless your Nan. She had good taste in music 😀 McCartney is able to hit a chord with all ages. My tiny kids back in the day loved Rupert and the Frog Chorus! I lived in Scotland from ‘68 - ‘76 (aged 5 to 13) before moving to Norway. I love going back. It’s like going home.
@@TudorSmith ahh so you moved to Norway too! Where did/do you live... I'm in Egersund in the south west... used to live in Oslo as well... moved out from Cumbria in 2008..
I should have been clearer there. I love going back to Scotland. It’s easier than going to Norway which I have a yearning to revisit. I lived in Oslo - near Bjørnsletta. I went to the Oslo American School in Bekkestua. I must go back one day 👍 Maybe make a video for my Tudor Travels channel 🤣
@@TudorSmith ah yes Bjørnsletta is close to where I worked. I would get the T-bane every morning to Gaustad via Majorstuen. Funnily enough I contacted a guy some years abck who took pics of ships in Wallsend who ended working at the Radium hospital in 1970 which was close to Bjørnsletta.... those ship backgrounds in Sting concerts were his photos! You can check his work by typing Tyne Pride Wallsend... quite stunning! He had them as negatives in his drawer for 30 years and had not done anything with them...
Hi Tudor… have to congratulate you on this masterpiece and also thank you for your efforts… “far did you travel ! “….. for me it was a very emotional watch. I have always wanted to see and know more regarding this location and boy did you deliver…. The bonus for me was the info on John in Durness. I didn’t know any of this and the bright rainbow 🌈 behind the house while giving us John info was magical. One point I did notice is the cottage in Kintyre looks as if it’s had alterations since the original film… real shame, I wonder if the owners now regret altering it…… Thank you once again Tudor…
Thanks Steve. It was a voyage of discovery for me too. Having done some research I was eager to get up there. Foolishly I squeezed so much in with my photography that I ran out of time for the concert locations. Definitely going to do a part 2 sometime soon 👍
Thanks for another great video Tudor. I only learnt about the Johnny Gentle tour a few days ago. Paul mentions the tour on his desert island discs (from 1981/2, and available on youtube.) I believe Johnny now lives in Kent, near to you. Scotland is such a beautiful country.
Hi Tudor Hope All is Well Sorry for the Loss of your Dear Queen Elizabeth. All the Best Going Forward with King Charles III. Of late I have been seeing various photos of The Beatles receiving Gold/ Platinum Discs & other Awards. Do you know where these Awards are Stored/ Archived? Thanks for Any Answers to this question. Enjoy your Day Take Care
Hello Tudor. At the risk of repeating myself...Just love your videos. Enthralling actually, especially to us fascinated by The Beatles. Did you know that the airport at Campbelltown was formerly an RAF Base, and they used to give Sir Paul special permission to land his jet there? As an ex-pat Scot living in Durban, I'm waiting for your future voyage of discovery to Lagos to see McCartney's escapades there! Haha.
Michael Lindsay Hogg is the son of actress Geraldine Fitzgerald and Orson Wells! P.S. in the U.S.A "Mull of Kintyre" was released only as a B side to the A side song "Girls School" which only made it to number 33 on the Billboard top 40. For the life of me I'll never understand what Capitol was thinking when they did this. Bizarre...REALLY BIZARRE!
I assumed you were talking about the Durness house 🤣 yeah the white cottage in the beach is the same one - just a different colour door though I think.
@@TudorSmith Yes, my fault. 😀 If you compare the pictures, you can see that in the Mull of Kintyre film, the house has an extra part to the left. And there is differences with Doors and Windows and I think even the chimneys. I might be wrong but it looks different to me.
Another great, and informative video. Thanks.
You’re so welcome. Thanks for working your way through my videos 🙏
Very interesting Tudor, thanks.🎶

Yes it is a treat missed the live watching now and. Looking forward to it
Enjoy

Ah so there was visible proof! It must have been awkward shaving the beard to put the stitches in!
You can also see it when hes on the Dick Cavett show
I’ll have to check that out! I’ll be looking for the scars now!

Thankyou what a wonderful trip you had a great insight learnt so much and the Scenery wow I felt relaxed just watching this you to look relax as well thank you again
Glad you enjoyed it
I love your videos! There are pictures of Paul, Jane and Martha at the Scotland farm. Jane loved the farm, apparently.
Thank you. Yes I hadn't checked thoroughly when I made this video. I'd assumed Jane had never visited the farm but she obviously did eh?
Really fascinating, I lived in Campbeltown when the music was put together. Very well put together tour.
Thanks so much. I really enjoyed visiting the places. Kinda brings it to life 👍
Another fine video, thank you Tudor!!!
Thank you 🙏
I heard that Jane asher suggested getting some where to get away,she was pictured with Paul.
thanks Tudor! i really enjoyed, just wonderful! the john lennon memorial what special place, people up there must really love him!
I’m pretty sure they did, especially as his Aunt Mater uncle Bert and cousin Stan lived in the village 👍

Thank Peter. I may get to Hamburg one day!
Yes I heard about that car crash. John and the kids where a bit shook up but ok apparently. Unfortunately Yoko survived. 😮
lol I shouldn’t laugh but that was funny 😆
Also...What a great moment to have a rainbow behind you while talking about John's visit to Uncle Bert's croft in Durness.
A bit magical eh?
This is brilliant. You should if get a chance do The Johnny Gentle tour. Apparently the singed their first autographs just outside Banffwhere I was born when they crashed their van…..blows my mind
That was my hope last time. When I am able to get back up there, then there’s another video to be created 🤣
My grandad worked with Albert bonici to promote the Beatles around Scotland
Oh wow that is amazing. What a great connection you have 👍
