Being a Brightonian, born and bred, there's a few extra things I can tell you. We do have a sandy portion of the beach but you have to wait untill low tide to get to it. The North Laine is the name given to the fields to the north of the old fishing village. On you way through Pavilion Gardens, the building to your left is the Brighton Dome and Corn Exchange. This used to be the Prince Regent's stables and riding school. It now houses the Brighton Museum, a concert auditorium and an exhibition space. The Dome is also the concert auditorium where ABBA won the Eurovision song contest in 1974 with their song Waterloo. If you're on the Palace Pier, not Brighton Pier, locals have never called it Brighton Pier, in the late afternoon in the winter, you can see mumerations of Starlings. There are thousands of birds coming to roost under the pier. The sight is incredible as is the sound. Just a few of the things that you can see around my home city.
I think the second clue on the Treasure Hunt was probably the huge mural of dead pop stars on the side of th Prince Albert pub. You actually have it on your video at 4:56.
I've watched a documentary on the royal pavilion you were looking at, It was built as a holiday home for the king, During the first world war it was used as a hospital for injured troops from India ( part of the British empire back then)
If you are looking for things to do in East Sussex, you MUST get to Rye. Its thirty miles east of Brighton and dead easy to get to. If you want to know more, give me a shout.
I have to say that I had a not too quiet chuckle when I checked out Jodi’s channel and one of the first things she filmed was the huge mural showing various pop stars. How did you miss it?
My favourite game on the pier is the dolphin race. Probably closed during Autumn (weekdays certainly) but its quite fun. Brighton in summer is amazing. It is also unfortunately very crowded because the good weather attracts thousands of people, but I do recommend a visit if you are back here one summer
So glad you loved Brighton, I spent a lot of my childhood there. Going to the piers (back when there were two) was always a highlight. I don’t know if you can show them on your channel but there are many pictures of the Pavilion interior on Google. Have you been to Portsmouth? A visit to the Historic Dock Yard is well worth the money; you can see HMS Victory, Nelson’s Flag Ship at the battle of Trafalgar and the oldest commissioned war ship in the world as well as other historic navy ships and the Mary Rose. You can also travel by hovercraft to the Isle of Wight - come on when else are you going to get to travel by hovercraft?
'Trafalgar' is a significant part of British History Trafalgar is a coastal area of Spain near where the British Navy won a battle against the French and Spanish Navys in 1805
my nephew lives in Brighton, we go to visit Brighton when we come to see my husband 's sister in Southend. You are wandering around the old part of Brifhton; The Lanes.
So you almost found the Banksy piece. Look at 4:56, that pub is the Prince Albert. It has a mural of famous dead artists (the apps prince clue), and also the original Banksy of two policemen kissing.
I did the Bath treasure trail with a friend and despite living in the city I learnt a lot and saw lots of great details I’d missed previously. It was only £6 so maybe the same company. I think we only failed on one clue out of about 20. Good way to see a city!! Loved watching your reaction to a British pebble beach.
One day a year, Brighton pavilion is free to visit. You'll have to find out on their website for when that day is. So if you come back make sure you don't miss this day.
Sometimes they do make those beaches or extend what's already there to protect the buildings and road and infrastructure or in the bad weather it will cost a lot to repair.
English 101 Leicester is pronounced "Lester" The county of Leicestershire is "Lester-shuh" not Lie-sester-shy-er Warwick is "Worrick" not War Wick With the county of Warwickshire being "Worrick-shuh" not War-Wick-Shy-Er Similarly, Worcester is "Wuster" and the county is "Wuster-shuh" not War-sester-shy-er
Brighton is one of my favorite places! Been there several times! ❤❤❤ I also took a couple of rocks home with me as a momento ❤ Everytime I stood next to those slot machine money always dropped out next to me every time even when I didn't put anything in them too! So funny! 😆
Josh works for snacks and coffee, good to know. You may not have found a lot of the places on that app, but at least you got some exercise in the fresh air. Thanks for introducing me to another awesome channel, I am now subscribed to Jodi :-)
I recognized Oliver's Brighton immediately at 5:05, then got really excited when you zoomed in on the sign, then YOU PASSED IT! 😱 Heartbreaking, but I get that not everyone is a HP fan. I like that they have walking streets, as well, and that everything is a bit quirky. It's like an English New Orleans.
@@WAYAWAYWithAsh Ooohhh! Jealous! Isn't it such a magical place?! He's done such a wonderful job with it. I'm so happy you guys got to take a quick stop inside.
I've lived in Brighton for the last 8 years so if you come back and ill give you a tour.. i explore a lot of Brighton and the more unusual parts that tourists don't always get to see
This is so funny watching this as someone who lives in Brighton Trafalgar comes from the battle of trafalgar btw And we definitely do odd numbers on one side and even numbers on the other! If there’s less buildings it’s probably more random
Ah geez...a ‘cheeky’ coffee? Maybe y’all were in the UK a little too long 😉 haha, that app, although outdated, is a neat idea we gotta check our if other cities have them as well!
You can get cheaper tickets for the Pavilion if you book online, it’s well worth a visit. Most of the items inside it are actually owned by the Queen which is why you can’t take photos or film inside unfortunately.
The "Brighton" joke at the end was fantastic! May I recommend other parts of SW England while you are there? I promise you will not regret seeing Wells, Glastonbury and the entire Mendip area (not far from Cheddar where you've been). Also, Lands End/Roger Wilkins Cider Farm is a MUST (Google him)! I promise, you will be absolutely smitten! Sincerely, Shelley, Portland, Oregon, USA, Channel Follower and England Frequenter:)
Really liked this vlog. Seen a few other traveler vlogs on Brighton, but yours was unique & I feel like I got to know the town outside of its “hot spots” that everyone else goes to & has vlogged.
Even though the treasure hunt didnt go as planned, I still think it was a success. Great video, and I believe you've added another city to my TBV (to be visited) list.
If you visit the UK, don't be ripped off by going into places like Brighton Pavilion. Plenty of freebee places to visit and see. If it looks expensive keep clear!
Brighton Rocks! I think it was the Australian comedian Paul Hogan who jokingly thanked the English for laying pebbles on their beaches to make it easier for tourists to walk on them.
Hi guys, really like your videos. No one seems to come to Southend on sea it's just east of London and has the longest pleasure pier in the world. I'm from Southend myself you guys should check it out!.
I would have been a bit miffed if I'd paid for an app that was seemingly outdated! Brighton seems like an awesome place. I'm very big on seaside towns anyway, having been born in one! (Torquay in Devon) Looking forward to more from Brighton!
You guys are sooo nice, love watching your videos, great idea with the treasure hunt, wouldnt have thought of that ever 😁. Love that you are so naturals, nothing seems fake with you 🙂
It's not the endlessly cheerful voyage of discovery that jars a little bit, it's the absolutely 100% full throttle competitive enthusiasm about every little bloody thing. That's what we British simply do not understand about Americans - and find faintly suspicious, frankly. (Sorry.) Life is dull, hard and repetitive - and full of rain. But it is your duty to live it as accurately as possible without ever permitting it to annoy you. That (and a genuinely hot cup of tea) is what it really means to be British.

Just a few of the things that you can see around my home city.
And there's nothing like the sound a shingle beach makes during rough weather.
I think the second clue on the Treasure Hunt was probably the huge mural of dead pop stars on the side of th Prince Albert pub. You actually have it on your video at 4:56.
Spot on mate. I think they were so intrigued by their new surroundings, that they forgot to look up.
Actually there are many many beaches along the West Coast that are made of pebbles/rocks.
I've watched a documentary on the royal pavilion you were looking at,
It was built as a holiday home for the king,
During the first world war it was used as a hospital for injured troops from India ( part of the British empire back then)
You didnt find the person next to Prince because you went past the pub on the corner with the huge mural of dead celebrites
Prince Albert
I love the way you call Brighton Beach 'rocks' we call them pebbles here in the UK.
I-I call them rocks. I thought that pebbles were small rocks. The ones in Brighton are MASSIVE
House numbers are usually even numbers on one side and odd on other.
If you are looking for things to do in East Sussex, you MUST get to Rye. Its thirty miles east of Brighton and dead easy to get to. If you want to know more, give me a shout.
Don’t get many bloggers that visit close to where i live in Worthing.....Brighton rock
There's a reason for that...
I left in 88

I was conceived under the old pier lol
You guys are so cute I love the way manage to murder the English language! lol
Americans always manage to murder the English language, so we have to forgive them lol
They done worse. They arrived in a guesthouse and Ashley was openmouthed over the books on display. They are quite funny really,
@@stevencassidy6982 "They done worse?" Nice grammar. "They did worse." Who's murdering English again?
@@mels.3750 hahA Schooled
Pebble beaches are quite common in England.
So beautiful, we cant wait to sail there!
'Trafalgar' is a significant part of British History
Trafalgar is a coastal area of Spain near where the British Navy won a battle against the French and Spanish Navys in 1805
cheeky coffee, love it
Traflinger street hahaha. I was waiting so impatiently for you guys to stop talking so I could correct you 😅
Same!!!!
my nephew lives in Brighton, we go to visit Brighton when we come to see my husband 's sister in Southend. You are wandering around the old part of Brifhton; The Lanes.
I live close to Brighton in a place called eastbourne. I hope you enjoyed it x
So you almost found the Banksy piece. Look at 4:56, that pub is the Prince Albert. It has a mural of famous dead artists (the apps prince clue), and also the original Banksy of two policemen kissing.
Actually, it's not the original Banksy, it's a replica. The original was painted on that pub, however the original was sold to a US buyer."
Hi, thanks for the vid. Just Google, "Inside Brighton Pavillion " and you'll find loads of colourful inside pics.
If you are in Brighton, head down to Beechy head, it has got great views!
I did the Bath treasure trail with a friend and despite living in the city I learnt a lot and saw lots of great details I’d missed previously. It was only £6 so maybe the same company. I think we only failed on one clue out of about 20. Good way to see a city!!

The toy museum is a gem, much bigger than you might think. Recomend.
yup st James street bet he you enjoyed .thks for the upload
Well yes, Trafalgar isn't English, it's Hispanicized Arabic. taraf al-gharb "Western Cape".
You should definitely have gone into the pavilion and museum. It's gorgeous
Sometimes they do make those beaches or extend what's already there to protect the buildings and road and infrastructure or in the bad weather it will cost a lot to repair.
Gloucester is pronounced "Gloss-ter"
8:00 Thats how they pronounced it.
As anyone from Massachusetts can tell you.
@@chubbygreyhound1198 They're still saying "glaow-ster" though.
or Gross-ster. lmao
English 101
Leicester is pronounced "Lester"
The county of Leicestershire is "Lester-shuh" not Lie-sester-shy-er
Warwick is "Worrick" not War Wick
With the county of Warwickshire being "Worrick-shuh" not War-Wick-Shy-Er
Similarly, Worcester is "Wuster" and the county is "Wuster-shuh" not War-sester-shy-er
I think you missed the guidance of the Beans in this one! Ashley, what do you think sandy beaches were before they became sand?
Yeah - the beaches in the SE of England are very geologically young. It's pre-sand!
Brighton is one of my favorite places! Been there several times! ❤❤❤ I also took a couple of rocks home with me as a momento ❤ Everytime I stood next to those slot machine money always dropped out next to me every time even when I didn't put anything in them too! So funny! 😆
"Bright-on" your day ...good one Josh! Though you may be stealing Ash's thunder lol. Like the throwback vibes of that arcade
The pub "Prince Albert" has a Muriel with Prince and George best etc on the side wall... and a banksy of the kissing policemen 😉
Josh works for snacks and coffee, good to know. You may not have found a lot of the places on that app, but at least you got some exercise in the fresh air. Thanks for introducing me to another awesome channel, I am now subscribed to Jodi :-)

We did actually go in just didn’t film it :p

Do not miss to look around in ‘snooper’s paradise’. It’s awesome!
I think we did! 😊
The busses in the museum looked almost same as the public transport busses in Mumbai,probably because the company was started by the British
Please come back to Brighton, I'LL SHOW YOU AROUND!!!!
Check out Birmingham? Cool time of year to visit!!
I moved to Brighton from the north seven years ago.....think I'm the only one living here that can't wait to move back up north #getmeoutofhere
Lucie McAdams Don’t blame you, it’s a horrible, dirty dump of a place and full of weirdos!
I've lived in Brighton for the last 8 years so if you come back and ill give you a tour.. i explore a lot of Brighton and the more unusual parts that tourists don't always get to see

When I visited you could take photos as long as you didn't use flash.
If you want good beaches in the UK, you need to head to The Gower in Wales, but you only want to go in Summer.
Brighton is where the Who mod movie Quadrophenia was filmed & my cousin starred in it.
Brighton is a great place full of bandits 😂 but this a great place, always something new to see.

Most pebble beaches are along the south coast of England. Most other beaches in the UK are sand.

All the way to Brighton and you didn’t mention the nudist section of the beach !
You really need to experience it in the summertime.
Even though the treasure hunt didnt go as planned, I still think it was a success. Great video, and I believe you've added another city to my TBV (to be visited) list.
If you visit the UK, don't be ripped off by going into places like Brighton Pavilion. Plenty of freebee places to visit and see. If it looks expensive keep clear!
You guys are from the Puget sound area near Seattle right? There are tons of pebble beaches there
Brighton Rocks! I think it was the Australian comedian Paul Hogan who jokingly thanked the English for laying pebbles on their beaches to make it easier for tourists to walk on them.
That alley thing you walked down is so freaky at night.
You can’t go to Brighton and not visit the pavilion it’s absolutely amazing!!
Hi guys, really like your videos. No one seems to come to Southend on sea it's just east of London and has the longest pleasure pier in the world. I'm from Southend myself you guys should check it out!.
So pleaded you enjoyed my beautiful city!! 👍🏼
Great vlog as usual keep up the great work

Not as nice as Torquay. Used to go on holiday there when i was younger.
@@f3aok Torquay is beautiful! I'd love to see what Josh and Ashley think of it!
Torquay? Nice?........We Devonians call it 'Birmingham on Sea!'
@@keithclements5148 Hahahah!
Ahh I would have stopped in to La Choza hoping to find churros. Pretty much will stop anyplace that has them in the world!
You walked past my fave pub the white rabbit i was willing you to go in!
Does Jodi live in 'Hove Actually?'.
I'm watching this thinking I'd met Jodi somewhere before until I realized I follow her UA-cam channel. Enjoyed the video.
Haha, nice!
This is awesome! 😀 Cool video!
I've lived all my life in Brighton & Hove.
I live in Brighton and you passed right by my house around on the video 😂
Another cool UK video ! Are you going to Cambridge or Oxford soon ? And what about Northern Germany, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Romania ?
Should have gone to Southend we have the longest pier in the world and trains take you to the end
You guys are sooo nice, love watching your videos, great idea with the treasure hunt, wouldnt have thought of that ever 😁. Love that you are so naturals, nothing seems fake with you 🙂
Of course this doesn't let you exit selling mistakes! Brighton!
Next time your in Liverpool visit formby beach and woods, last place in uk for the native red squirrels and the beach are sand
Not seen any in Formby for years. There's more red squirrels in Scotland, Ireland and the isle of wight
@@limpfishyes and in Northumbria. Kielder Forest is full of them!
David Barton I seen a few last week, must be last place in England not uk
You didn’t have food?
Glad you liked my home city and you found Bailey the pub cat....He has his own Instagram account 😆
What I had no idea that’s awesome!
I live in Brighton . It’s fun and quirky. It’s better in the summer and we do a great gay pride here
We have a few natural pebble beaches here in the UK
What is jodie’s channel? Cant see a link in the description
It's called Jodi's Expat life.
Brighton looks cute. You didn't link Jodis channel in the description !?

I believe they did Somerset. :)
Hey it's Jodi! It's a small world 🙂
Try walking bare foot on the rocks in the summer at the beach

When’s your next q&a
Do you not know what Trafalgar is? Gawd :)
We call them pebbles not rocks!!!!!!!!☺️
Surely the purple house was Prince..and Gloucester is pronounced Glosster
Best couple ever 😉 wish you to visit Tunisia
