I love this series of blasts from the past. This is real history. Thank you for releasing this for us all to watch 👏
How times have changed. Look at London now.
It really upset me watching theses old videos of Bermondsey south London because it’s dead now
They was hard days.
I bet they were.
Poverty still in Bermondsey now!!
The difference is now that all the well off people here in Bermondsey are foreigners!!
The area is very desirable but not for real locals that cannot afford to pay the high rents or property prices!
Sad really!!
Let youngsters of today see this and know what a hard life really is and was back then.
Joe Wolf,Now,forever immortalised on UA-cam for all the world to see how privilege was hard earned.Today,they are blamed for being privileged.
Bless Joe and all the other salt of the earth people,you are everything the elite will never have.That alone keeps me going.
Rolfe,not Wolf
@@pegknife Oh grow up !

Joe what a man
This is like a mini movie
Sounded like he said he won something in 1919. Surley not that long ago.
Hard Days ....
Pete and Bas brought me here
I'd rather sit and talk to these people than some entitled weirdo with about 7 pronouns who's never had an original thought in his/it's life.
I disagree the sports not for individ... it's poorly, also I has reads 📚 📖 📙 📘 books, abouts individ... are herebilities richest passed on individ... who's wanted too do for their's selves too goes out too worked, and did'nt have's it's good all their's lifes,
Hard times ... they all looked prosperous and well fed.
Because they were good fighters to earned a living in the ring?
I come from a family of boxers and some of the gyms in the old days offered meals etc to fighters and the local community due to the poverty.
He was talking about the twenties - you didn't think he was still boxing at that age did you?
This was filmed in the 70's(which were still challenging times for certain people,poor housing,big family's etc)but these old fellas were talking about yrs gone by(early 1900's).where times were f##king hard&harsh!!
Hopefully I provided some clarification for u..
😅
