I was on a National Trust Working Holiday at Waddesdon Manor and planted hundreds if not thousands of flowers in the park behind the house. It was nothing but impressing to be there ❤️ I am looking forward to my next NT Working Holiday!
How can I have this kind of opportunity?
@@lenjcnt170 I’d like to know too!
Impressive.
WOW MISS JUDITH/you are so blessed to be a chosen one for sure/
Congrats.
What a wonderfully, personable visit to a majestic property! While stationed at RAF Chicksands in the 70's, I was fortunate to be able to tour some of the local, historic, family homes.
This is a very pleasant remembrance of those days so many decades ago. Cheers, Dick from Vancouver.
Oh you are lucky doll. I can't imagine what that was like. Live and in person. Philadelphia USA
Your videos are never too long
Magnificent as always
Wow I love the contrast of the older building and the new flint house. I like both in different ways.
The new house is hideous, the old one is beautiful.
It’s a shame we couldn’t see the rest of the house…the rooms, the balconies, turrets…
So, anyone know the music used after the intro? I’ve heard it a few times and would like to know the track
Wow it's very nice I love it 🙏🏻🌎🙏🏻 cross watching Philippines live EGYPT 🙏🏻🌎🙏🏻
Thanks.
Can not wrap my mind around such wealth.
A life with out money worries.
I was thinking the same; and then we learned of his wife and baby dying in childbirth and it so humanized him. All that wealth, anything he could ever want, except the beloved wife and child he wanted most to share it all with.
I love the elephant!
BRAVO !
Wonderful job, thank you 💖
that guy must have been sweating at the thought of her sitting on the furniture
Nice to see COLOR. Not the hideous white and gray "modern farmhouse " garbage you see today
ce n’est pas chez les princes du golf que nous allons avoir autant de goût pour les choses aussi sublimes …
Zeit macht alles verändert, obwohl ich es Euch auch Vermisst habe.......................!
I loved the Flint House
While I very much appreciate the beauty and the artisanry that went into this magnificent house, I wonder how many people were living in abject poverty while this wealth was being accumulated.
Isn’t it the same nowadays... if not even worse ?
Eliticism is the wrong ideal : it just stimulates all the worst we all hold in ourself. Sharing, on the other hand, is a beautiful flower , that we also hold in our hand.
But Some people want to be on the top... and most people are suffering from that
They were New Money. At one point they were working class too yet you begrudge them success? Envy is powerful I guess.
@@mrs.h.l.g-b5814 Success at what cost? "Behind every great fortune, there is great crime."
Watching these British documentaries are making me more and more critical of British history and culture.
So much of it was made at the cost of EVERYONE else.
They're arrogant assholes.
I think this is still true today. The scale and viewpoint we have of it may be different, but whilst some live in undiscribable luxury the masses gaze upon via our electronic gadgets, many people can't afford both, rent and food, to a satisfactory extent. I wonder what we are learning from History, fundamentally. I am in awe of the artistic and artisanal achievements of all eras, and I will never not believe that there is actually the possibility of a decent and free life for everyone. Probably our priorities need to shift a little more to achieve this. Wishing you well 🌟
What red flowers are they in the garden 🐾🐼🐾🐼Azaleas🐾🐼🐾🐼
But is there hot sauce in the kitchen pantry? That’s the real question 😂
LOL, but I use to like hot sauce on greens and catfish.
@@cocoaorange1 catfish aye?
Sorry, I don't like the camera mans technique of out of focus fades!😒
Polesdon Lacey, 1996...I think 1896
The flowers at the dining table are too high. You should be able to see those across from you in order to converse with them!
Not in the Victorian era, at least for upper class formal dinners. You were supposed to converse with the persons on either side of you and not to someone on the other side of the dining table. Of course, times have changed. Many people dine off fast food wrappers rather than plates and what's the use of a table when you have a lap.
You did not speak over the table
It was done on purpose.
Omg
How beautifull
Wish i lived there for a few days
Thank you
What the heck is a telephone point in a tree root? How did it work?
Not an expert here but back then house internal telephone was quite popular for the big manors
I'm not entirely sure how it worked but there were different lines going to different rooms in the house so you could easily speak to someone 15 rooms over
But again don't know terribly much besides that it existed and i think it isn't quite like actual telephone but that's just wild speculation
When you are a mile from the house, you plug a phone into it
My favorite English country home
At 15:25 her charisma got me locked into this video! ❤
I do love my Victorian stories! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I do as well!
@@AKAHeatherJoy OMG, sistah, sistah!
@@alicerivierre if you’re interested you should look up Linsey holiday on UA-cam! She does a lot of history videos and it’s all centered around the more fun/gossip side of history (while giving a facts obv) I feel like you would love it!
@@Alex-ms9em omg, thanks! I'll take a look. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have no idea how they have managed to make the Flint house so brilliantly and outright UGLY. Love the Waddesdon Manor though.
The Human Spirit IS so extraordinary when you have endless amounts of money... see what I could do with that
did you get to go down Into the basement to the satanic ritual room .
Le château est magnifique mais je n'aime pas le jardin d'agrément (un peu dans le style des jardins français), je préfère les jardins anglais où on dirait que la nature est sauvage
The house shown at 27:00 is hideous. Way to destroy a beautiful landscape. It does not fit at all, the architect failed to match the building with the scenery and now it just looks ridiculous.
Enjoyed it until the talentless Alison Hammond had to be shoehorned in, as a presenter on historical properties. I mean next they’ll ask Maggie Smith to host Love Island. Alison please stay on This Morning!
Surely the guy was having water and unleaven bread for some religious practise?
He was in grief, a teetotaler, and not into the gross, fancy food, no Jewish practices, they would be Friday night, anyway
29:58 - I'm afraid it doesn't have to do with genes, just with being an idle heir to a fortune you didn't work a day in your life for, and being bored and wasteful. Putting the fruits of other, underpaid people's labor into useless junk to put in cabinets and on coffee tables.
Yep. In earlier times he would've said it was "God's will" that he was able to lord it over the peasants, collecting expensive, useless junk. But you can't use "divine right" as a socially-acceptable excuse anymore. So "genes" became the next best thing. Sounds more "scientific." LOL.
@@Luboman411 😂I agree...
I really don’t think you can call these people “ idle heirs!” In fact their genes do play a very big part in their story.
If they were simply idle, they would not be where they are today. Many great estates during the 19tb and 20th century fell into ruin due to bad business plans or families not moving with the times.. However, the Rothschilds are clearly doing something right.
Also the British Aristocracy are part and parcel of our culture. Without them we would not have such a rich architectural history, which is envy of the world.
We can’t judge history with todays standards.
Not unlike Britians Royal family now.
The objects you call "useless junk" were created by artists and artisans, mostly from the working classes. But I suppose it's difficult to appreciate their talents and contributions to cultural heritage when you have your ideological blinders on.
Alice: Dont step on the grass.
Victoria: Excuse me?
Alice: I said.... *Dont. Step. On. The. Grass.* Your Majesty...
Victoria: Oh, I see. Yes ma'am.
The woman in the huge modern art dress is just as embarrassing as it gets.
oi let's gaow tew a part e
Hannah is very beautiful ;)
Not this one.
All that dusting!
The newer Rothschild house is so ugly
❤
C'est triste d'avoir réalisé un si beau château et que personne de sa famille y habite
So much fourniture in a room
That flint house thing is one of the MOST UGLIEST THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN!
Why would you build such an ugly house on the same property as such a spectacular house?
$$$$$$$$$$
They don't build them like they used to. Thanks Philadelphia USA
Who doesn't build what like they used to and what does Philadelphia have to do with it all I'm so confused
Oh my gosh that house is literally hideous LOL
What do you think "literally" means?
I think that of the newer one
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
I don't like the Rothshilds though
It’s garish.
Gaudy
Garish houses, flowers...no amount of $$ makes up for the lack of taste
Bring in the Wannabe tribe to explain the most elite British lifestyles, not sure why. The effect is rather ghastly and awkward. Yes English Lords are probably trying to explain Native Tribes as usual but that’s equally as embarrassing.
Most genuine comment here :)))
God i DISTASTE contemporary design SOOOO 😂 all that money and Flint looks like literally trash
Proof money can’t buy taste.
A vast fortune created from printing fiat money and starting wars
