The time had come for me to return and check out my hometown of Wolverhampton, but this time I thought I would bring my friend @honestplaces with me and I could show him a few of the locals public houses and local characters. First we visit the heart of the Black Country, Dudley - a town where it seems almost every local I spoke with had just got out of prison! Then we head back into Wolverhampton proper and visit some of my nostalgic old haunts, stop a daylight street robbery and help out an old friend of the channel. This part of the UK is always full of characters and banter, join us!

It is what it is
Wendall have you been around the rough places of Birmingham yet? Some boozers I can tell you to go to!

Wendall,
I absolutely love the way you interact with the community/locals.
Looking forward to seeing you around my way.
Gloucestershire.
I'm in Tewkesbury.

Thank you for the great review of my pub, The Giffard Arms. After 22 years of running this wonderful pub, it makes it all worthwhile. Very much appreciated. Thank you xxx
The Giffard is a great pub ❤
Len, my dad, went there all the time in 1998. (He was a black dude and wore lots of gold while dancing)
Glad you engage with those struggling, could be any of us street drinking if you go through a crisis
😅😅😅😅
they are only struggling with themselves.
@@buy.to.let.britainare you really that stupid??!
Speak for yourself lad.
If you don't have a starting time for drinking and a cut off time then you have a problem ? It's all about limitations
Fantastic channel! So much more informative and REAL than anybody else! Thanks for the new vid!
Really appreciate that, thank you

The light bar was buzzing back in the Nineties, part of the Chubb building. Canal club and Piccasso's down Broad street.
loved Wolverhampton back in the day for a night out.
Great content, confident, articulate and emphatic.
Local lad too.👌
Mark
Cannock frequent the Arcade and next door for a curry at Shabab. Im sure I've seen you in the Newall Arms.
I'm from dudley and seeing that I feel disgraced my poor town and area has gone to waist due to all the drunks and plastic gangsters bragging about being in prison dudley used to be the heart of black country now just a dump
Vomitting out nonsense about God, it's all very repulsive, I work closely with the people of Dudley and they all share one thing and that's sheer hopelessness. Doesn't help UA-camrs creeping around making a quick content on the towns, milking the misery, it's about time they put subscriber numbers to use and put questions to the authorities rather than recording some drunks for giggles.
So sad that Markets around the country are diminishing. Its due to many reasons, lack of investment, older customers dying off, online shopping, excessive parking charges, market traders retiring and younger family not taking on the stalls.
Iits a crying shame as markets were the hub of a town or city, dating back hundreds of years. A great social interaction, bargains, and a way of sharing wealth.
I used to love going round the Market Stalls in Wolverhampton with dad in 1991 to 1993.
We only went to the fruit & veg and chicken stalls but sometimes we'd walk past the toys...
I live in Dudley, and where I live is ok but avoid the town centre as there’s just no reason to go there when you have the merry hill complex. When I jump in the motor I head out 30 mins to Shropshire (Arley, Alveley, Claverley, Telford) … it’s like another world compared to Dudley, Sussex vibes… crazy that it’s only 30 mins away. Dudley is just desperate!.
I fish the river at arley and we always get yobs from Dudley messing around with dinghy’s and avin a bath lol
Lived in Wolves 92-04. Great times, amazing clubs, pubs and parties. Shame what's happened to the place it looks dead now 😢
It was a great town for a night out back in the day
@@WendallExploresstill is tbf

@@WendallExplores Great town for a night out back in the day meaning the late 80’s and in the 90’s a VERY long time ago…..tragic innit!

My old man was from smethwick. It's a shame to see what it's become. Always been a bit rough but damn. Thanks for helping the less fortunate and being kind to them. You treat them as a friend. Hugs from Canada
I spent many Fri/Sat nights in The Gifford before going on to The Planet/Blast Off (or in later years The Canal). I still have fond memories of the mid/late 90's at The Dorch'. Great video, Wendall!
❤️ Giff
100% correct about learning a trade, Wendall. It seems like a lot of people in this country want to study for cushy desk jobs or useless media studies type occupations. Yet I've seen so many tradesmen earn massive amounts of money, because there's a shortage of skilled trade about in this country (which is why most of the decent tradesmen you get these days are from Poland or Lithuania).
Trade for life for those lads 💪
I left the UK back in 2012. I came back for a visit last year. Was shocked at the changes. 😒
I left the UK also in 2012. Not a massive fan of visiting home in Manchester. It's awful.
It'll be like Mad Max next time you return. Could i ask what county you moved to and if your happy where your are now?
@@hulme187It'll be like Mad Max next time you return. Could i ask what county you moved to and if your happy where your are now?
@@MelissasArt We left a month ago for Asia it’s wonderful here I can’t see us ever going back!
@hulme187 I have seen Manchester thanks to Charlie Veitch. It really does look the pits doesn't it? 🙄
Gordbless you Wedall, you and your mate kept that old man and his dog going, it's not getting any warmer. BOSTIN mate!
Omg the Giffard Arms! That's my favourite place for a night out, great people, reasonable prices, great music!! ✨️✨️
8:40 I can’t be the only one who noticed the bird with one leg😂😂😂
Their a lot around the westmidlands like this due to plastics and people stepping on birds :(
Wolverhampton market moved a few years ago to a new location up by the library. That market square is now used for events.
Thanks for telling the guy to sit down. My dad died from hitting his head on the sidewalk after tripping. ❤️
my stepbrother had a good few drinks after work , fell down some steps and hit his head, he eventually walked home somehow, relatives picked him up in the car, put him to bed, not knowing he had banged his head , he never woke up, chocked on his vomit. he was only 45. it can happen to anyone .so sad
@@rosiew1952 I'm so sorry to hear that. My heart goes out to you ❤️
Condolences to your da... I pray you and your family are filled with comfort and peace ❤️
Such a shame when I was a kid Dudley was a lovely town and the market was brilliant. Coming from Wolverhampton my nan and grandad used to take me for a day out at the Zoo and castle. Now it looks a total shithole, glad I moved to Devon
another coward who ran away. Part of the problem
@@truebro77what do you expect the guy to do lmao
Good too see you back in the Black Country chap 👍👍
God’s own land 🙌
I count my blessings after watching your brilliant and insightful video's.
Great work Wendall interacting with the less fortunate. God bless from Newfoundland.
Really appreciate that 🙏
@@WendallExplores It's not just the UK mate, I visited the city I once lived in an hour North of Toronto, and was shocked at the homelessness and tent compounds.
It's an extremely sad time seeing good people falling through the cracks!
Sad the state,of this once country.
I lived on the streets,homeless but l got my self sorted,started a Landscape firm.
Sticking your head in.a bottle,ain't going to save you.
Tbh I'd never give up my cat or any pet she helps me with my mental health ❤
Damn right
same
I have my two beautiful dogs otherwise I wouldn't think twice about leaving this shit world
Same❤
@MagicTasha I love My cat to absolute bits she's like my 2nd child but a fury version :)
Aww Brucey & MIssy,it was so lovely giving him a meal & dog food 😊👍🏻🩷
yes that was so lovely of him, and the gentleman was so greatfull.
Glad to see Brucie's off the mamba, he seems so much more lucid, hope he finds a nice place soon
Thank you wendall, a true hearted guy 🎉❤
Cheers pal for helping out 😊
Love Wolvo
Another great video mate your a good man helping that chap out with food nice to see .
The Giffs the best place in Wolvo, check out Dive at some point too, you walked past it in the beginning. Great video as always.
So in England your alowed to be a lazy drunk. And the taxpayer's pay your bills!! What a piss take!!
Whilst blaming foreigners for all your problems 😐
Its not that simple mate. Many of them have their own issues to deal with.
@rog3833 l am on dialisis but still work. Ee all have issues. But we cant let people do nothing and be a burden to the rest of society .
If you can't get a home because they are all given away to immigrants how are you supposed to get your life in order.
Easy to fall into depression and desperation when your own country kicks you to the kerb.
Been waiting for the next instalment, Great down to earth real life in these areas today, great to see someone with a kind heart
Haha, should have gone in the Hogs! That's essential. I miss the Varsity back in the day, £1 so pint nights
Your vids are proper bostin.
Ta bab
Do yaw remember when they had a balloon over Dudley called the Bostin Wench?
im a wolvo Babi. glad I found your channel, I spent many a nights in the giff too. best place for a night out and I 2nd the fact that the rock/metal community is the best. I spilt a drink over a massive grebo in planet when I bumped into him and instead of avin a gew at me, he helped me pick up my handbag. proper gentleman he was
The best people
I haven't heard the word grebo for years ❤
@@maebloome haha I'm 36 so that word was me back when I was 15 🖤🤘🏻
Left the UK in 2013, never going back, the country is ✅ done.
Yep done like many of parts of Europe
Don't blame ya pal
In America a Cow Pie is Cow Manure. Wolverhampton, home of Slade and Cornershop.
Rock and metal have never being my favourites, but marginalised sectors of society have always found ways to express their feelings and experiences through many sounds and rhythms. I personally still get moving with jungle and drumAndbase and so many more sounds and arrangements. That’s the great power of grassroots culture it can be anything and always aspires to something better
I’m from wolves - The guy was saying this town was lit. But it wasn’t in my lifetime (currently 31), my dad says it was a great place to go out in the 70s though. Times change.
I have just subscribed, I am from Great Barr BIRMINGHAM uk, originally now living in NZ. What you did for that guy and his dog, was bostin mate
NZ aswell
@@SkeetTennessee I miss thar Motherland, not what it was tho, tisn't what it it was
That pub with the Lump hammer Ales is a must visit if I'm ever in that neighborhood. That's what it's all about when travelling drinking local beer and food.
In Wolverhampton it seems The Lych Gate Tavern,Great Western Arms and Hale To The Ale are the pukka gaffs.
Two great pubs you visited there, both of which absolutely deserve it. You should do the Combermere in Chapel Ash if there is a next time :)
The best vpn is buying your own server for £5 a month. Forget those pushing you through their server. It's a con! Wow! Wolverhampton looks lovely.
Giffard's one of the best pubs in the midlands imo. Another great place is Dive. Planet's an amazing club, and a lot of people like Parisian and Calif bar. A fair bit to do in Wolves and not crazy expensive like some parts of Brum
Heavy video, good video, I love what you done for Brucey and his dog! I remember the documentary he was in!
Gotta feed the pup
@@WendallExplores absolutely
I see him everytime I'm in town 😊
@@EldergodUK cool!!!
Brucie Bonus! Top man for helping out the less fortunate.
Brilliant stuff Wendall as usual.You are one of my favourite channels.Say like it is,dont shy away from situations and very informative.Thanks again
🙏
Another sad thing after you walked past the Gifford seeing Beatties all shut how sad. I used to go there as a kid and loved it. The Great Western used to be named the best pub in Britain
The Giffard Arms is my type of pub. Draught Guinness has a shelf life so has to sell well to maintain it's quality.
Love the Giffard...fav place in Wolves.. me dad says the best place for a pint of Guinness is mcghees! You missed out The Lych Gate
You'll never understand how kind and friendly people in the black country are unless you're from here. I've lived in wolves my whole life and I'm proud to be from here. The City centre isn't what it used to be, but there's so many beautiful places away from the city centre. The giffard arms is also amazing, I always feel safe in there
Bless those you've talked to who seem to be drinking quite early in the day..
Nothing wrong with a bit of day drinking
living the dream!
@WendallExplores Aye, for sure in the right circumstances.
Have you visited my home city of Leicester? Great curry places, but can be a dive in the city centre.
@@WendallExploresMuppet!
Wolverhampton/The Black Country is surrounded by amazing countryside and nature, yes it's a bit of an urban nightmare the closer you get to the city and towns but we find that all over the UK these days.
I try not to judge and try and create the world i want it to be, no better place to start than with yourself and your family. Great channel btw👊 Stay Bless ✌️🧡
The best way to beat a hangover is to "start the day with a bird of prey" (kestrel superstrength) 😂
🤣
Great video as always mate!
Great vid as always mate. The pies looked lovely🤤😋 Blessings to Brucie and the pooch, well done for looking after them ❤️
"I'm trying to explain to a bloke from Huddersfield" - fighting talk, love Danny's cool and calm "It's not Huddersfield, it's Manchester" :D
🤣🤣🤣
nice to see you giving advice to those down on their luck. I hope they listen to you.
real people. real stories. another great video. god its horrible seeing when people turn to alcohol like those guys on the bench
Salt of the earth in the Black
Country
" that's strong stuff you got mate " 🤣
Mad that is !! I know charlie - cmax music and you wendall lol 😂 mad seeing him on your video 😂😂
You are such a big hearted human being sir!
Found Danny from your channel love you guys content. Thanks
Guys voice reminds me of the Harry and Paul sketch “Clarkson island” with the bald Clarkson saying “Ooooo I’m a slap head”
Im like you Wendell, originally from Wolverhampton but been in south wales near 40 years. People are great i find but there has always been drug issue and no doubt some bad, criminal immigration. Another good video
What is going on with these English towns being in decline. Truly bizarre.
Have you been asleep for the last fourteen years? Looks like it's not going to get any better either.
Internet shopping..dumping illegals in city centre hotels to name two things
Amazon, Covid, GFC, Folks staying away from city centres, buying online and going to other places
Err illegal immigrants and the government have finished our country WAKE UP
When you close all the mines, the shipyards, the car plants and the textile industry you are left with a slowly dying country apart from London and the south, which still has control of all the money. It takes time, but the decline was hastened by open boarders and Politicians who can't or won't change the system now. So your vote doesn't matter, never really did. Welcome to the machine.
Classy people. No wonder Britian is going down the pan with people like the drinkers at the start.
Hope you're doing well! I've been following your content this year and just wanted to say I really appreciate what you're putting out. If you're ever around Nottingham or Derby, I'd be more than happy to show you around.
Some rough areas in Derby would be interesting to have a gander at. I’ll go out on a limb and say Osmaston Rd in Normanton is one of them - it looks like there's quite a significant segregation between the white and Arab communities.
Nottingham’s got its spots too - Hyson Green’s a bit rough and full of crackheads, and Bulwell isn’t much different. If you fancy stopping by, just drop me a message!
Appreciate the comment and I’d be happy to take you up on the offer. Can you email me to make contact? The address is in the channel ‘about’ section
@@WendallExplores Hi Wendall, I've just dropped you an email.
Soppy old Danny getting upset and irritated just because you’re teaching him the lingo😂😂love the video Wendall it’s BOSTIN!!!😂
I prefer "bangin" 🤣
Every Town and City going the same way ....... hmmmm I wonder why ?? Great videos
"how do you spell that?"
😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Awwww man.....I remember Brucieeeeee from that wolverhamton bbc black mamba documentary. Man he has lost allot of weight. Hope he finds the answers he needs .
I got my own money 18:22 then pulls out 2 squid the riffer 😂
My mate recognised yous from UA-cam video, we were sitting behind you's, ready for Massive Wagons gig.Yea great pub.
Wolverhampton is home to us who live here ... and one thing everyone takes from visiting is that 99% of the people in wolves are real and say it as it is and are humble home is home .. respect everyone the same manors and respect cost nothing but really are priceless 100%
I always heard there's something in the water in wolvo, years ago from 93/97 in Onley YOI there was quiet a lot from that area in there.
Appreciate it would be a difficult one to approach people with, certainly the types you interviewed at the beginning but part of me would like to see what these people think if you asked them about the poor state of their town (like you so excellently do already) and then a follow up question of what they've done to help fix it. Not to intentionally put them down or frustrate them or anything... I've been there myself.
A lot of the people you come across seem like they may be where they are 50% because of their locale and 50% because of not being able to control their own internal struggles. It's a feedback loop but you don't leave that loop but keeping on going round and round
Is that the Duncan Edwards statue in Dugley? I remember Sir Bobby Charlton coming to my school St Peters many years ago as he was visiting Dudley with something to do with Duncan.
11:29 Shit again 😂😂😂 Everyone *always* says their town is shit, no exception 😂😂😂
ha ha ha its sht because u c the same sht.everyday.these utubers go round a area of 300k population and go 2 areas where 20k live and say its like cape town.ffs
Same in Australia. Million dollar houses, massive homelessness, and no jobs!
Wednesfield born and bred. I’ve seen you here before and by your accent I knew you were a wolves lad! We’ve probably been in the same pubs at the same time way back when? And know some of the same people that used to frequent the pubs in and around town. The old still, town hall tavern… then Yates, hogs head, royal London later on….? The great western was, and still probably is a postie’s pub. We all used to go in there after our rounds back in the day. When is was job and knock and you’d be in the pub for 11am! Top work fella. What part of wolves are you from Wendall?
The Great Western is the best! The Lych Gate, Combermere, Royal Oak, Posada (though not been in there for a while) - all great pubs in Wolvo too, if you like good beer. The Giffard is classic place to end up, with a crowd of good-hearted, rock and metal loving folk.
Glad to see both sides of Wolftown shown here! Cheers, man. Glad the Northern chap liked it too. I'm fairly certain there are much better pubs in Dudley than the Pie Factory (been a while since I've been for a drink...). Hang on, int the Pie Factory in Tipton anyway? Fake news! 😂
Ahhhh the Giffard. Many a fond memory made in that place
1:57 Couple of winners there 😐 3:40 Another geezer absolutely crushing it in life 🤣21:14 Totally BOSSING it
The truth of the matter is it makes the housing officers feel better to help the "strangers" regardless of whether or not this may put us and our children in danger rather than help people on the streets they've seen for years and years who are helpless and dependent on substance abuse.
3:23 was pretty cool lol …watching the spit fly out from his mouth right onto your camera lenses
You should come to kidderminster mate and do a video lol you'll love the town and alcoholics and druggies everywhere. Plus all the shops we have lol
Bostin is the black country equivalent to the Geordie Canny.
I can't believe i forgot about the pie factory, must be 18 years since i went there, iconic place ❤
Lived in Wolves all my life.Its a shambles,the very reason I have not been to town for years.
18:35 Hahaha Wendall you're the best 😂😂😂
Hey dude 😊 where ya get ya cap from I love it
*_"Alcohol; the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems.”_*
Kestrel super is ❤️ I've been drinking it for 30 years and my liver and kidneys are 100% yeeees
Great video fellas. Wish I could hang out. Miss Britain for that reason. The US is ok but ain’t the same. Cool tattoos by the way. Would like to know the story behind Danny’s.
'Missy' looks bloody good for 15!!!!
Well done sir!!!
30:52 thank you for stopping and talking :)
"Knife crime is a facet of modern life"
Dudley is tragic to look at now, I only live down the road but its an embarrassment seeing how the areas decline has a knock on effect to people that live there,its partly why i want to move somewhere rural in shropshire as its only going to get worse...
3:23 I hope you gave your camera a wipe down 😂
Appears Dudley has gone to drink. What an eyesore of a place.
Wendell I live in wolves and used to live near to Brucie In merridale. I like Brucie and have a lot of time for him, but one, he has not had that dog since the bbc 3 doc from 2013/14. He had a different dog, a staff cross pit which used to repeatedly bite him.
The dog missy he has only had since Covid.
Two as much as he protests otherwise, he has accommodation.
Like I say i have time for Brucie and like him but hate when people lie about their circumstances.
Keep up the channel and good work
He has lost all hope. Know the feeling.
