I want the editor to know that that "clap is out of sync but speech is in sync" gag was noticed and appreciated.
The editor is me. Thanks! :)
@@JayForeman The preceding part of that bit, with the clapperboard and the confused look that you cut away from, was the gag that I shared around my friend group. Your sense of humor is a fantastic lure that keeps bringing me, an American with zero interest in architecture, coming back to all these informational videos of yours.
I saw that too, it was great
3:04 for all to enjoy again
@@NilesHlavacek I was checking my wireless headphones for so long and it never got into sync with the picture. Then I realized I was watching a Jay Foreman video and I felt really stupid. Great gag!
Captain Disillusion, a techmoan parody, and obscure infrastructure facts. Everything I love in a video, can't wait for the next one.
I recognised the Techmoan parody immediately. Way too good!
AND a TomSka cameo!
@@afmersnad7746 oh my god how did I miss that in my comment. The garlic chain literally made me lol.
My body was not ready for this video!
As you can probably tell from my profile picture, I particularly enjoyed the clapperboard joke.
Whoa super generous of Captain Disillusion to let Alan add to his acting folio by being in this. What a great boss.
Thank god someone else noticed that unexpected cameo! Thought I was going crazy scrolling through these comments
Thank you for saving me months of recognizing him without being able to place where from.
Adam Blompied made a great appearance too.
The pickpocket stealing an old phone was hilarious . Your videos are the best , history with humour . Thank you .🙂
Yeah - you beat me to it (by two months!) I really did laugh out loud.
a man just talked to me about a bridge for 8 minutes and I was totally hooked... Jay Foreman is what they call 'different gravy'
Ayyy it’s foshy
Foshyyyy
So not the type you put in a digger and drench one of your subscribers with?
So Max is using SponsorBlock?
*yes*
The way you depicted Marc's half-English, half-French heratige was utterly brilliant
Tomska reusing his Le Alien costume 😂
It's the first think I thought of when he said half-English, half-French and he did just that!
Jay's style is based on the notion that every fact can be a joke.
I love how this kinda feels like old school youtube where people would collaborate for sketches and videos and not just for views
Love the subtle inclusion of the cue mark at the top right corner of the video before the sponsor segment (8:05) - I also noticed it in the last video. I remember moving to the UK in the late 2000's where some television channels still used these cues to visually signal the live broadcaster to prep following adverts. Very subtle addition!!
Thanks, thought that was an artifact
I'm so glad I wasn't the only person to notice that! I always wondered why that appeared before ads as a kid!
OMG I have been watching Jay for years and never knew what that was/what is for and it bugged me sm cos no one else ever talked about it tysm!
Not sure what I love more, Jay Foreman being exceptional as usual, the cast you've managed to assemble, or that Techmoan impression.
Techmoan impression was a lovely surprise
Techmoan was spot on :)
not sure why but the impression made me very happy
Proves that Jay Foreman is also a fan of Techmoan
Impression? I thought it was another cameo!
As an American, I appreciate the fact that you finally did an episode about the most famous bridge in the world, London Bridge.
My brain died reading that
I'd rather have Golden Gate Bridge as number 1 lol
@@HDTomo But that bridge ain't even golden!
@@adamcetinkent No, but the gate is :D
kimit unlife now!
The Tower of London is hardly gothic. It's in typical Norman style, so therefore romanesque. The bridge is in gothic revivalist style because that was sort of the 19th century romanticised view of medieval architecture. Rather than matching the style of the Tower, it's more of an idealised attempt at creating this (faux-)medieval milieu.
It could never be gothic. We all know Goths wear black and the Tower of London obviously doesn't 😅
nerd
Now this is the kind of over the top, incredibly detailed and ridiculously nerdy analysis I come to this channel for.
still looks cool tho
@@hairglowingkyle4572 For sure!
Definitely didn't expect an Adam Blampied appearance, these are worlds colliding, alright.
I had to scroll so far into the comments to see if anyone else knew who he was!
I only just noticed him after the 3rd time watching this video xD
Hopefully not colliding too much.
Captain Disillusion, Alasdair Beckett-King and Adam Blampied turning up in this series is a real Dickens of a twist.
And Tomska
And Techmoan (kind of) at the end! 😁
@@TheMattThompson Hmm, idk, feels more like AAR on Air to me
Captain Disillusion 🤩
@@fjjwfp7819 nah, i think its techmoan
After that ending, I now need a Techmoan / Jay Foreman crossover
I know right?
bloomin' 'eck
Wait, it's "Techmoan"?! I always thought it was "Technoman" for some reason xD
@@MrThewieszkto that's actually hilarious 😅
Yeah... honestly i was expecting cuba baion on the end xD
Techmoan!!! The content is as ever top notch, but these are some of the few videos I look forward to the sponsor segments! Techmoan is one I've watched for years despite not being all that into audio electronics. and yet I love it! Good work sir. Good Work.
5:35 “so the bridge would forever fit insensitively with the surrounding architecture. AAAAAA-“
The fact that Brooklyn Bridge is older than Tower Bridge was a real surprise to me. The architecture of Tower Bridge really creates the illusion that it was built in the 14th century or something! Fascinating for sure.
yeah i couldn't believe that
😎 Another fun fact: The Eiffel Tower is older than the Sacré-Coeur in Montmartre. 😍 In fact, over half of Montmartre was razed to make room for that church... 🧐
The UK is full of really new stuff that looks like really old stuff, such as the Houses of Parliament
Indeed.
This goes to show how ignorant of architecture history (or physics for that matter) the average person is
The Techmoan impersonation is absoletuly genius!
Yes, it is. It took me a moment though. 😄
IKR! TechMoan 😂 (someone's got to tell him.. And his puppets too!!)
For the amount of channels I sub to, not once has Jay been a suggestion from the YT algorithm, it took a comment from Tom Scotts recent vid with Beardyman to get me here, and here I am at the current end of the Unfinished London playlist which I have just binged.
I LOVE this channel and I cannot wait to explore more of these brilliant videos, and I couldn't even give a toss about London as I live in Cambridgeshire.
The information, the humour, the subtle edits, the tiny details, the cameos, .....my good sir, I applaud your work. Thank you.
I too live in Cambridgeshire but am very fond of London which is where my dear father was born ... I like to think of London as the centre of the world but Cambridge as the centre of the civilised world ...
I like the honesty for how beautiful Tower Bridge is. It's easy as a Brit to be snarky and downplay stuff, but Tower Bridge is legitimately something to be proud off.
The "surrounding architecture" gag really made me laugh out loud. Unexpected and accurate - That's how a good joke really works :-D
Unexpected and accurate and kinda depressing!
@@rade-blunner7824 Clicked this comment, expected someone to complain, found another postmodern moaner.
I just loved the shot with the Walkie-Talkie.
The amount of cameos, references and parodies is great in this one!
The TechMoaned sponsor segment is glorious
Nailed that impression. I had a real double take wtf moment when he started talking.
IKR! I just wrote the same thing. TechMoan 😂 (I wonder if he even knows about this) 😄
Oh wow! It wasn't just me that got that reference 🤣
I was hoping the big surprise was father and son puppets.
it was way too spot on, that's clearly Mat
Hahah at 6:27 the mugger on the bridge steals... her phone! lol
3:08
Very subtle, very nice.
The Techmoan impression at the end was so well done I recognized it by the voice alone.
That part where John Finnemore showed up made this video a better crossover than Avengers in my book.
Agreed
"Well! Since you asked me to appear in an internet video as nineteenth century architect..."
Why, what do you have them do in your book?
Brilliant!
So THAT’S why I recognized that voice.
The painting shown from 0:43 to 0:45 is, I believe, by Edward Henry Eugene Fletcher (1851(7?)-1945), my great grandfather. Excellent channel, I just pushed the "Like" button.
It appears that Mr. Fletcher's name was flooded at some point between then and now.
No, it's W. J. Baker "The Pool of London" (1892)
It is actually endearing how seeing John Finnemore anywhere but especially in a Jay Foreman video has brightened my day
The lemon is in play
More unfinished London? Now this does put a smile on my face
Yes

They are one of the best concerts, you can not go but just seeing them from the screen, I know it was surprising
💗❤️💌💘
One of the best youtube series
@Qefna Ija no one asked
No one cares
Great collab with Techmoan, loved his cameo at the end.
Is 7:04 a subtle Tom Scott impression?
🤔
6:56 LOL that's the exact same face i was having when you said : " cover it in glass to protect it from BOmb"
2 unfinished london within a month of each over? truly jay has blessed us
There's gonna be another in march! I love these vids
I swear Jay does the only ad reads I don't skip. This one made me laugh out loud in my office at the end.
I'm still laughing at the "we've all got thyme on our hands" one from 2020 🤣
Adam Buxton's on his podcasts are also great Successfriend
LOL Techmoan's lawyers will be in touch soon! 😅
That's why he can afford to put them at the end.
Love all the cameos especially in this one!
Jay foreman brought, Adam Blampied, TomSka, Paul Kendler, Matt Green, Captain Disilusion's Intern, Kieran Hodgson, Alasdair Beckett-King, John Finnemore, Liam Abbott, and Ailsa Mainwaring together?
"Infinity war is the biggest crossover of all time" my tower bridge!
The cameos in this video are as wide ranging as they are obscure: never did I think I'd see ABK, Adam and Captain Disillusion's intern all in the same video.
don't forget tomska!
@@kyoskii3767 whoska
The only one I recognise was tomska and that was certainly a surprise.
John Finnemore is an absolute legend!
@@dontspikemydrink9382 Thomas "Tomska" Ridgewell, the creator of the asdfmovie series.
You are one of the few creators that make the sponsor segments worth watching. The Techmoan homage is just...[Chef's Kiss].
That Techmoan reference makes this channel feel like it can only be watched by the British and nobody else.
@@robloxtvRBA Sorry, was my response not showing I was American? Hold on...

London in the 1840s: Look! We built a tunnel under a river!
Meanwhile the Babylonians: *What took you guys so long?! We waited so long for someone else to build one that we died off*
Let's be honest, the Olympic Rings being installed temporarily for the 2012 Summer Olympics was the yassification of Tower Bridge. A shame the installation wasn't permanent
>2012
>yassification
Brits: Tower Bridge
Americans: London Bridge
Road Geeks: A100
The cameos (be it in person or the cheeky shot from a Tom Scott video) were really nice! The mini series about bridges is interesting in general
Can't wait for the next part, where Jay presumably makes a video one syllable out of synch as forshadowed by the clapper desynch :P
Where was the tom scott shot?
@@danielmunarriz998 He used shots from Tom scott's recent video
@@danielmunarriz998 most likely the shot from inside the tower bridge control room.
Geoff Marshall even filmed the Wapping Station bits!
Oh, I was thinking, this reminds me of that Tom Scott video. I guess that's why.
I always watch Jay Foreman's videos 3 times: first time for all the interesting information and non-hidden jokes, a second time immediately after for all the hidden jokes (and make sure I got everything right, not a native speaker here), and a third time later because it's just too good.
I do similar. Once all the way through no pausing to not disrupt the flow. A second time to find and pause to enjoy all the details (like to read all the email titles). :)
Me too.
And so it begins.
This is such a good idea that I'm adopting the practice immediately.
I don't have any such tradition but I usually end up watching them twice in a row anyway.
5:25 John (Travolta?) Wolfe (From "TV's Gladiators") Barry (Chuckle Chuckle-vision) was a beautifully horrific nightmare of a mashup. Bravo, sir, bravo.
Jay: But the problem would eventually be solved by a half-English half-French
Modern-day UK and France: *Wait, that's illegal*
Love the dedication to the half-English half-French part with the costume...definitely loving the Jay Foremanverse version of Two-Face. Though more of a Two-Face/The Penguin combo 💀Also "It's newer than the Brooklyn Bridge" here's an obligatory *"BEAT THAT, LONDON!"* from a New Yorker. Yup, Brooklyn Bridge opened in 1883, 11 years before Tower Bridge did.
Average modern English man have 45% French DNA so really it's just the average John Smith being half English, half French
My mom and her friends were on vacation in London in their younger years, and were getting pictures of what they thought was London Bridge. A passing gentleman overheard them talking about it and he said, “That’s not London Bridge; you’re standing on it!”
What was her reaction? I really wanna know
Amazing.
When Tourists ask me for directions to London Bridge...............They get directions to London Bridge, even though I suspect they mean Tower Bridge. They will get a good photo and a bracing walk to Town Bridge as a bonus.
@@ladywhistledown9616 That is the dry humour I expect.
@@orangelake2268 Sorry for the extremely late reply, they felt awfully stupid, though they laugh about it!! Sweet woman she is.
What an excellent cast! Some were so famous, that I recognised them.
I think some shots of the interiors of the bridge would have been good, as they are pretty flipping (see what I did there?) impressive.
A wild lindybeige! That's going in the journal.
Captain Disillusion was a surprise!
I sent my dad your scholar's cradle video. It's clearly gripping as we both watched all of it, hopefully he is now using them in his lectures!
A great cast, indeed!
Tom Scott's video, from whence some of the external shots are taken, also includes a lot of inside footage- it's linked in the description.
I'm not a Brit, but I've been to London twice in my life, and since the first time I saw Tower Bridge when I was a kid, I fell in love with it. I don't remember why I liked it so much, but I thought, and I still think that it is a beautiful sight.
Very nice video, not one that you should follow word by word, but it is very entertaining and interesting
You deserve a standing ovation for your techmoan parody. Well done!
Love the old ITV 'advert immanent' graphic in the top right at 08:06 - it's the little details that make this channel so amazing. Thanks Jay :D
So thats what those mean
It's been a long time since I've seen one but I'm glad he has added it, makes me nostalgic for when TV was still good.
Good spot, I missed that!
Wow! Didn't even notice that until you pointed it out!
it’s called a cue dot ☺️
As a certified utility pipe, I am glad I still have access to the closed tunnel.
8:05 that little marker on the top right of the screen was used on British tv to signify a change of broadcast. Usually for regional adverts on commercial tv or near the end of a program on bbc as a cue for the announcer to start their voiceover.
That 1940s proposal was so stupid you'd think it was from the 1960s
Oh I will for sure be tuning in next time for another very exciting episode of Unfinished London.
Will unfinished London be ending any time soon? The series, not the town.
now if only there wasn't a abandoned theme park in Unfished London (well it looks unfinished now after the storms)
Hey what’s up! Love your channel and all of your interesting theme park vids you put out
It'd be stupid if you don't. It'd be really stupid.
But what if he never finishes the series 🤔
We have the same soggy clay in San Francisco, so when they needed to build a subway under the bay, they built a tunnel on land and sunk it underwater. I try not to think about it too much-for some reason it’s more unnerving than just a regular tunnel.
Paris metro tunnels under the Seine river were actually built using a similar technique.
Sydney Harbour tunnel is the same. Based on a Japanese tunnel if I remember correctly.
I agree... More of a pipe than a tunnel!
The Detroit Michigan - Windsor Ontario tunnel is the same kind of tunnel. Not bored under the bedrock, it's literally a tube sitting on the floor of the river. As long as they're manufactured right, they're no less safe than underground tunnels.
What, did they push it down? :D
I am stupendously excited for another episode of Unfinished London. I can only assume that it will, in some capacity, discuss the Blackwall Tunnel, and this excites me because I sometimes drive through it.
To be educated, entertained and surprised in the same video. That has to be Foreman Production. What a lad!
Great of you, Jay, to give us more of "Unfinished London". I admire this so much, I have watched every episode of it a dozend times! Give us more (please!). All the best from Germany! - Valentin -
Es gibt nichts besseres als Unfinished London!
Likewise. I remember him years ago talking about the Northern line!
Looks like Finished London is quite fascinating too. (unless he has a couple lined up for Thamesmead and The Elizabeth Line)
London is basically finished since Jay's first UL vids
@@emjackson2289 Looks like he is thinking of the Bridge to nowhere at Beckton , and similar proposals.
Seeing Tomska was awesome, but having Captain D pop in aswell?? I had to pause and make this comment. so so awesome to see the cameos of other great youtubers in these already very entertaining videos

That half English half French gag was brilliant.
So simple, so funny.
You make watching UA-cam a pleasure.
😁I think the best joke was the mugger stealing a non-mobile phone. 🤣
@@ixlnxs that was also pretty funny.
In fact, I dare someone to find a joke that didn't land in this video! 😂
Sorry, as a Middlesbrough local, I have to be a pedant:
The Transporter Bridge does not lift vehicles/people upwards. It carries them across at road level on a gondola.
We also have(/had) a bridge, the Newport Bridge, that lifted its middle section straight upwards to let boats through. It's very cool.
Kinda glad the southerners didnt build it to be honest. This way the transporter bridge is the largest functioning one in the world.
Up the boro
Fun fact. The guy who invented the concept of a transporter/ferry style bridge was from Hartlepool.
The Techmoan impression was spot on!
I didn't know jay watched techmoan, such a cultured man.
Finally someone who gives Trevitick some credit for inventing the steam locomotive.
Also, one of the designs shown for the bridge is quite modern...
3:29 love that intentionally out-of-sync sync clap! 😂
I love every single one of your videos and highly appreciate how diligently written, produced and edited they are. but please, Jay... one day you have to give us Outtakes!!
I post outtakes, deleted scenes and other behind the scenes stuff to Patreon.
@@JayForeman ohhhh that's the best news, signing up as we speak!!
I love the editing of your videos (your reflection nodding at you in the previous one was genius) and the black and white commercial break thing in the corner of this one made me all nostalgic!
There's something that makes me laugh every ten seconds, and I learned something interesting for the whole video. Why can't TV figure out to hire guys like Jay? Selfishly, I'm glad they haven't.
Edit: Captain D sighting at 4:00...(well, technically his unpaid assistant Alan.) That's too awesome.
@@karinlouis5669 This right here is some of the most culturally inclusive porn spam you'll ever see.
TV casting directors don't want genuine rare talent like this nowadays. They want an endless supply of reality TV talentless idiots because they make other talentless idiots think they can be famous too.
Oddly you say that - Jay Foreman was actually hired by the BBC for a bit, but he wasn't given as much creative freedom as in his videos and it kinda hurt the final product.
@@INNERLMNT It always seems weird every time a media company hires somebody because they like what they do, but then ask them to not do that for them
@@runlarryrun77 I don't think that's quite true. It really depends where you look, and what the casting's for. Maybe you're just not looking in the right places for new content.
5:43 absolutely dead from laughing at that modern architecture gag, brilliantly done! I rewatched it many times.
I laughed so hard that they would have locked me up for hysteria at the time the bridge was built 🤣
Same, that scream! 😂
I have to watch these at least three times: first, to get the basic information; second, to make sure I catch all the jokes (including the written ones - e.g., 3:53-3:57 - TRAMPOLINES?!?); third, to appreciate the brilliant editing. There are more reasons, of course, but I just thought three was an easy number to remember, in case it comes up in conversation.
Long admired Jay's delivery / acting skills but that Techmoan impression... chapeaux, messieursdames. Prelude to the skillshare ad not to be sneezed at either.
Brunel Sr. made a tunnel so Brunel Jr. could make bridges.

I love the Beauty of this Bridge. It’s Very Iconic and one of a kind. I can’t wait to see this Gem whenever I visit London. Hopefully. And the way u added The City of London’s Skyline @ 5:41 was hilarious, bro. Keep up the good work! All the way From Texas!
8:20 is Techmoan!
"Tunnels in a nutshell were not up to the job, and neither were tunnels under the Thames." I laughed for minutes at that. John Wolf Barry. Lemmings on the bridge walkway. Cameos, JOHN FINNEMORE! Well done sir. Easily the best video I'm going to see this month.
@Lukas Borck Wow! That's something else I need to go and see just as soon as I'm allowed.

Why do I love this channel so much, I had such a smile when I saw there was a new video! Learning so much about my city, can't wait for you to dodge cars in the Dartford tunnel next time!
I think this is the only channel where I actually want to stay and watch the ads.
The cast.... so varied, so surprising, so good. In an ideal world there would have been a couple of extra people you could have included, but you can't get everyo..... sees credits, notices Jago Hazzard and Tom Scott. Sorry for doubting you. This IS the pinnacle of UA-camry.
Yeah I came here to say pretty much the same thing... Wait, Tom Scott was in there as well?! Edit: checks credits - ah, footage contribution, right.
@@originalmossman Tom made a great Tower Bridge video some months ago. He got to operate the bascules for some minutes.
This video featured the perfect amount of John Finnemores (1). Almost all other videos on UA-cam fall well short of that benchmark.
Also, all of the other comedians, the ones I recognised and the ones I didn't, were great. And the stuff that Jay did as well. All round great video.
Agreed!
I knew I recognised that Victorian man!
The design at 4:50 is pretty modern looking for those times
Designer must have been a time traveller
I wish there were a million more of these videos to watch. They turn the bad feelings into good feelings. Best humor on yt
Further proof that jay foreman is one of the best UA-camrs, fully love the unfinished London series
Take a look for City Beautiful by Dave Amos he maked great content too.
You've got John Finnemore on Unfinished London...
The entire human goal in life has been accomplished! Well done!
Right! I was shocked not to see more comments about it.
I just love the attention to include small gags in all of these videos. 3:30 had me laughing way too much for such a small gag
Congratulations. You are the first UA-camr I've found whose sponsor segments are as entertaining as the content
5:05 "you have no authority" 😂😂

Uyunan çıgıp, tigi jer-jerdi izdedi. Al kiçinekey koyondu wins taba algan. Al bir az oylonboy koyondu karmadı. '' Bul koyon menin kursagımdı toyguza albayt '' dep oylodu arstan.
Arstan koyondu öltüröyün dep jatkanda, bir kiyik tigi tarapka çurkadı. Arstan aç köz bolup kaldı. Kiçine koyondu emes, çoŋ kiyikti jegen jakşı dep oylodu. # 垃圾
They are one of the best concerts, you can not go but just seeing them from the screen, I know it was surprising
💗❤️💌💘
Bridges are fascinating for sure it'd be cool to have a new episode about the Tube someday, like you once did with the northern heights scheme :D. I believe there's a lot say, for instance, concerning all the Fleet/Jubilee line projects in the 1980s.
I highly recommend the channel Jago Hazzard. Think he’d be right up your street.
the Richard Trevithick steam train gag had me in actual tears. I love this channel so much
Educational and interesting, wonderful content Jay! Being in this was incredibly fun and this video is amazing - my favourite part was the zoom call between all the gentlemen. Hope to see (and hopefully be in) many more videos! - Jesse
Thanks Jesse! And thanks for doing such a great job! :)
@@JayForeman How does one get to be in these videos? P.s. I'm guessing some of these appearances make more sense to a Brit than a yank.
A riveting performance as Brunel's tunnel passerby #2.
@@njdevilku1340 Well Jesse was at the right place at the right time. Unless we know we need extras in particular costumes, we just chance it on the day.
@@jadeforeman131 Well if you need anything, I'm not far from NYC (like the Brooklyn bridge)
I love that you and John Finnemore know each other!
Great video as always :)
I didn't expect that ad! Everyone going on about a Techmoan parody and I was expecting puppetry!
These videos bring me so much happiness, thanks Jay!
Aw, it's so lovely to see some of my favourite UA-camrs appear on an equally amazing UA-camrs channel. Tomska, ABK, captain disillusion.
I'm lucky enough to have been in the tower subway. You can only really get half way across now. Went down when I was making a TV show about London's bridges and tunnels. This is almost certainly far more entertaining than my show though. I also got to open tower bridge and stand in it's counterweight chambers when the bridge lifted (really quite frightening).
That is very cool (in a nerdy interesting sort of way). Would love to see that 🙂
@@pk3ndl3r took a lot of health and safety paperwork as I recall. Also had to coincide with some other maintenance work being done on the tower subway as we could not afford the man power to so all the safety precautions just for us. I probably didn't appreciate what a great show that was to write and film for at the time. The day we filmed up Big Ben I couldn't be bothered to go. I did however get to sit on Nelson's head in Trafalgar Square and stand on the roof of the new Heathrow airport control tower.
Those bits of un-syncing the audio with clap-checks made me laugh harder than they shouldve.
As a broadcast editor I found your sync claps made my day much happier
Keep up the brilliant silliness and making history fun
