Initially thought this was earlier than 1993 but like your other commenter noted, there is the new looking L reg Peugeot 306 and also a Mondeo parked at the station, so this would be late 1993. Getting my head around this is now 31 years ago. What happened to Rachel >

Typical MK driving skills..

Bit harsh on the McDonalds worker there 😅

As tight as a Duck's Arse driving and living there

This was before Milton Keynes stole the old Wimbledon FC from London and its fans

Ooh Take me away….legendary track 💖

The railway station arrivals and departures, is the most ill thought out piece of road mechanics that's happened to station square.

Tuneage 😎🎵

me and my homies love newport road

Did ICU at the UCI?

Great video with some great memories of how Milton Keynes used to look. I haven't read all the comments so I apologise if someone else has pointed this out earlier, but unless I am very much mistaken it sounds like you were playing NOW That's What I Call Music volume 18 in the car whilst you were driving around during the day (up to around the 18 minute mark of the video). Judging by the tunes played in the background it would have been Disc 2 as all of those tracks all appeared on Disc 2 of NOW 18. A moment in time nicely captured there and thanks for sharing.

It's crazy that you can see the point from Springfield like that

Around at 12minutes after beginning of the video,(when you drive on the tree lanes), can't see any speed limit signals...so whats about the speed limit there ?

Wonderfull video and a fantastic "planche" of infos control !!! (distance, time, location, maps.....wow)....👍

time travel back to a better time

great to see midsummer boulevard without crappy new bit and all free parking ❤

I love love love your videos Can you do MK Gateway Saxton court. please

Thankyou , missing MK so good to see all the trees 😊

Mk has definitely changed for the worse even netherfield didn’t look like a 3rd world ghetto back then.

Same clothes as today..

No-one on their phone......

Hi leonard bit of a weird one but did you know someone by the name Emily Middleton from Milton Keynes around 90/91? She's my mum and she gave me a tape of 'Rave Tunes' a couple months back that was given her by a mate in 91 and i've noticed it seems to have the exact same mix of tracks as the ones played as you drove around in this video. Just wondering if I have your tape!

Ooh, droppin' some sweet tunes with True Faith, take me away, still got it on 12" - ed DJ.

Shout goin' out to the Springfield massiv from the Crownhill crew. Nuff said.

Isn't all the parking on Holst from Folks who live on Bernstein wonderful along with all the flytipping from Strauss...

I was half expecting to see my car some where. We were in the same class at school. 👍Great video!!

The good old days when you could drive past The Point, before they built 'The New Bit' and killed the old oak tree. I remember feeling sad about the Studio in Bletchley closing down, but happy about the shiny new multiplex at the city centre. I wonder how much longer the Xscape cinema will last, it's getting on a bit itself, now.

Good video. Alligator is the best saw for cutting up fallen limbs and branches. Why? because branches and limbs are held by the jaws and easy to cut. You can cut branches on the ground. I tried a sawzall or reciprocating saw for fallen limbs/branches and couldn't cut them.

Great video. Crazy to see Dave Stephen so young. I worked in Evesham technology in Witan Court about 7 years after this. Can’t believe that the showroom was the same for 10 years 👍🏼

I'm 33 years old and still living in MK for 33 years, makes me feel old watching this video. good old days.

17:21 no difference in driving style since 1993 I suppose using left turning lane then straight into the right lane at the roundabout and go across what a mess.

This is so poignant. I lived in MK from 1980- 1995, 25 when I left. So you’ve captured the last ‘moments’ of my life there perfectly. I’ve not been back to that part of MK since - so in my head it’s still like this 😄

Going sanctuary in November

Oh fucking hell how simple was our lives

ah the days when you put a suit on to go clubbing and closed by 2am - that was all I knew until someone took me to the ministry of sound - what a contrast that was.

Bought one of my first PC's from that Evesham Micros

Those were the days!

Great tune 👌 forgot that one!

Good video.😊. I lived on Gurnard's Avenue in the eighties. What vehicle are you driving in this video?

Brilliant tunes - brilliant times - I moved to MK in 1991 and thats when the music scene started to get awesome - The Sanctuary / Ultra Vegas - What brilliants times Great Video it went all around where I lived and loved

You do absolutely have to have a car in Kingsmead, don't you?. What on earth do you do if you haven't? How do you get to the shops ( if there are any) or to the doctor? You can see where the original villages were ... curvy and nice....but the rest of it is soulless. Why did the planners isolate the people from the amenities? I didn't even see a bus stop and zero food shops... The planners claimed a 'forest city'. I see no signs of that. You'd think, given the way everything is spread out that there was as much space in England as in the USA. American style motor centric commuter suburb.

Brilliant video - thanks

My word! This is HORRIBLE so dilapidated and third world...It is a beautiful late Summer early Autumn's day - will never look better than this. It looks like some sort of prisoner camp. Thousands of acres of beautiful country destroyed for this? Do the planners live here - town councillors? Cars everywhere... no bus stops .... how can those with no cars get about? If you are old and very young and its raining..... Where are the shops.. the health services, the cafés, the art galleries, the gyms....the swimming pool...a school, a crèche a hairdressers? Answer there aren't. I saw nothing that would make a community....Do the planners live here? Why not? I see potholed roads... no parkland or playing field or children's play area. The way the barracks are spread out makes any community life difficult. The houses rather being straight lines could have curved round a village green with some local amenities... but no.. this is car city wasteland

What a horrible grid motor city - the worst of America!! Just multi lane highways, cars, car parks ,pollution and concrete and asphalt and road noise and commercial chains ...now local shops but very large healthy McDonalds etc plus traffic jams😞 Extremely ugly concrete slab buildings...nothing creative (' midsummer boulevard' as a name is an example of the lack of creativity - boulevard! in England - American influence) nothing organic...Hideous. Wasn't it supposed to be 'forest city'? What a joke. Just see some spindly very young looking sparse trees.....the place started in 1968!!! All that farmland, green fields, woods with all the insects and animals and fish destroyed for this ...acres and acres of concrete and asphalt, office blocks and McDonalds ... This video was back in 1993 - since then people massively don't go to 'malls' etc but shop on line, many people no longer work in offices but from home at least a few days a week. What's with all those office blocks and 'commercial' centres now? DYSTOPIA! The people who say they liked it on here aren't there now and what they liked you'd find anywhere.

Song at 6:10?

Thank you for uploading this! We have a house viewing so it's nice to see the area beforehand.

Love looking back at how MK used to be

I was hoping to see Sakura Walk Street. I was living there a couple of years ago. Maybe in some of your future videos. As someone who lived in MK and worked as a delivery driver, I was hoping to find a channel like yours where I can see all the areas in this beautiful city. I'm happy that I found your channel. Thank you for your videos!
