Nice to see some London content from Veitch-perspective. I'm from and live in Glasgow, however, I have friends in and have visited London often. The city has a special place in my heart. The first ever pub I visited was th Shakespeare's Head just off Carnaby Street age 17 in January 2006 (pint of IPA) - To this day every time I'm down I pay a visit there for nostalgia sake.
I have watched you for a very long time and enjoy what you do but have never commented. Absolutely loved this and learned so much from it. Thank you Charlie
Damn sir you would be a wonderful tourguide. Not just the broad historicity but the street-sav to keep it going through legal hurdles in good stride. Plus a love of ye old english & the occasional front kick. Brilliant.
I live in Fulham,central London and haven`t seen one for at least 6 YEARS!!....Plenty flying by in cars and overhead in choppers though..They have totally lost the plot on what a good police force should be doing...They`re more interested in spending their time (and our money) on sucking-up to every ethnic & sexual minority they can lay their hands on.
Probably a sweeping generalisation, many Chinese restaurateurs and in fact many Chinese love to gamble, so if meals are paid for in cash it makes it harder for HMR&C to take their slice and leaves more for the casino, simples.
Another generalisation though not aimed at this place specifically - you can't pay staff from cash on the books if they're either illegal 'guests' or claiming every benefit under the sun whilst working.
Bloody hell it's literally all the areas I was walking around only 10 days ago, looks so quiet now compared to the new year period. You should head in to the east end ghettos, would get some interesting footage there. That guy with the Jesus sign is a lovely Irish chap, was chatting to him at Hyde park on NYE.
Thank you for the tour of the inner City!! I wonder if you got the feeling, wealth was oozing out from the Buildings especially some of the Gravy train Government Buildings????
Great film of the saddest city in England, even with the beautiful Victorian architecture. Such a shame, when I have to say to my foreign friends, globally, don't visit London, its a sh1tehole, thanks to the Mayor!

Love seeing all the really old architecture. Im of the school that believes modern day humans didnt build them, especially a lot of the really really old buildings. Because we're going backwards fast, we can't even maintain an airplane fleet safely anymore, let alone anything of that magnificence. Homes have corners cut everywhere.
