Excellent videos always
Are you sure this is the Gendarmerie Nationale, because it is the Garde Republicain, an elte force to protect the President de la Republque ( and in this case symbolic the british sovereign)
Are you sure this is the Gendarmerie Nationale; ? I believe it is the Garde Republicain, an elite force to protect le President de la Republique looking at its uniform and banner.
The UK and France have today celebrated 120 years of close cooperation with special ceremonies in both nations’ capital cities.
8 April, 2024 is the 120th anniversary of a diplomatic agreement, the Entente Cordiale, signed between Britain and France.
To celebrate over a century of fruitful alliance, and the ongoing close military, diplomatic and cultural ties between the two nations, history-making events were held today in London and Paris.
The 8th April anniversary is the focal point of a year-long programme of joint UK-French military activity affirming Defence ties between the two nations.
Never before seen in London
Members of the Garde Républicaine, part of the Gendarmerie Nationale, arrived in London last week to rehearse for a never before seen ceremony in London. They were accorded the unique honour of participating in the historic Changing of the Guard ceremony on Monday 8 April, an honour only previously afforded to the British Armed Forces and Commonwealth countries.
The Coldstream guards were in Paris in a similar ceremony and were looking absolutely marvelous 🇨🇵
Exactly. The little ceremony happened just near the British Embassy. 🇬🇧🟥👑🇲🇫🟦⚜️
Celebrating the 120 years of the Entente Cordiale, Franco British Alliance.
Glad you enjoyed watching! Would’ve been fantastic to have seen them do this also 🇫🇷🇬🇧👏
As they always do.."Nulli Secundus"
Splendid..
Hi from Canada and congrats to France for being the first country outside of the Commonwealth to participate in the changing of the Guard
Would love to see the RCMP do this, we always see them at Royal occaisions. They really stood out at the Queen's funeral and the King's Coronation
Always love seeing those beautiful police horses.
We in the US call them dapple greys. Is that the same in England?
Hello from Germany, we also love to see the guards. Well done, gentlemen, so as ever! Your country must be so proud of you! 🙏🥰
Vielen dank. X
Sie haben recht, wir sind in der Tat ganz stolz! Aber nur eine kleine Korrektur, jetzt wo wir viele Frauen in Uniform haben: besser wäre's zu sagen "well done ladies and gentlemen!" Haa!
@@nigeldunkley2986 Oh ja, Entschuldigung! Auch die Damen machen ihre Sache grandios! 👍
Wish the police would make the people stay put on either side of the main gate.
I thought it was really disrespectful and a shame that they allow the people to pass right behind the band when the Royals and the French people were saluting and standing there. So disrespectful the police should’ve done a better job of it.
I guess People are still kids in their mind. They can’t stay put
I totally agree. Those people shouldn't have been allowed to pass by at any time. BTW, hello from San Deigo CA.
I totally agree
❤ 💯 agree! Especially during the French national anthem and England's God save the King,
Totally agree from North Alabama USA
Delightful presentation. As an American with family ties to both France and GB I was pleased to view and celebrate this event. Well done. Watching from Virginia, US
Thank you so much for your kind comment! Really glad you enjoyed the video and got something from it. It was an incredible day, feel really lucky to witness something so remarkable. Well done to everyone involved! 🇫🇷🇬🇧👏
Hi there... I am french, and I consider this event as a privilege for french 1st foot Guard republican regiment to share these moments with Great Britain, with the people all around B.P., and the Scots Guards ... really proud of these two great countries.; thank you for all !

Hi. Thanks. I a. Only about 6 minutes into this one and already we have admired the 6 great police horses, those wonderful SEG police clearly leading Prince Edward and Sophie past, watched thek police give sweeping clear instructions in the middle of tbe road and seen that you had yet another great view. What I wish we had was the date for context of this and all other events.
Now I am making that cup of tea in my Brisbane Australia kitchen and wat h tbe rest! Thanks again. Those crowds kind of give me the creeps,,far too many!

Lived in Germany for six years been to London twice been to Buckingham Palace both times my great grandmother came to the United States from London in 1915 she came by ship and entered through Ellis island New York. She and my great great grandparents had been indentured servants for many years for a family in North London. Watching you from Clarksville Tennessee United States 🇺🇸🇬🇧
You do a great job of your videos & commentary👏👏👍🏼. Thank you! Today I got a bit dizzy while panning.🇨🇦
Really glad you enjoyed watching, thank you! Appreciate the heads up.. I was so excited that my panning was a little speedy
For those who are wondering what Event is this. It’s to celebrate the 120 years of "the Entente Cordiale", The Franco British alliance 🇬🇧🟥👑🇲🇫🟦⚜️that was established in 1904. Just a couple years before WW1. Putting aside their differences and joining forces against the German. It continues in WW2, the great figure Prime Minister Winston Churchill wanted to strenghten the alliance however the French General Charles de Gaulle was against it.
Sort of like dissolve as time goes on
Same thing here in Paris near the British Embassy. A liitle ceremony, I should think
Both Former and Greatest Colonial Empires.
Cool fact, this isn’t these 2 joined forces. It also happened in the Crimean War 1853-1856 (Queen Victoria) againt Russia who were threatening the Border of Turks. The battle of Balaclava and Alma were a success
Go watch the movie the Charge of the Light Brigade, it’s reallly fascinating
33:56 Marche de la Lorraine. Such a good and iconic French song
Very interesting! Thanks for sharing info!
@@dancersmom4u You’re welcome. This what happens when you spend your time learning History especially the Rivalry between the Anglo French 🇬🇧🟥👑🇲🇫🟦⚜️.
These 2 super powers fought each other for a Thousand years for World Domination (most likely spreading language across the Globe)
Since the Hundred Years War (Medieval Era), through the Seven Years War 1756-1763 and the Napoleonic War 1804-1815
Watching from Central Virginia, USA 🇺🇸🇬🇧 🇫🇷
Thank you very much for tuning in!!
Hi, from Michigan USA 😊
I totally agree. The police should not be allowing all those people to move back and forth behind the band. The people should stay put where they are. Shows total disrespect to not only the British people but the French as well.
Crowd shouldn't cross once begun!
Huge crowd who will push through to the horse guards after the inspection, lol.
Indianapolis, Indiana Hello! Just finishing my cuppa coffee🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧
Just been following you for about 2 years. This is amazing. Will the French gendarmes stay on post?
Loving the videos you take, look forward to watching them. New Zealand I am watching you from, Appreciate so much ANN
That’s very kind of you to say! Glad you enjoyed watching 💂♂️😃👏
🇬🇧🟥👑🇲🇫🟦⚜️
Watching from Fairbanks, Alaska
Why did the police let those people walk in front of the band.?? That’s so wrong.
Disgraceful letting all those people wander around. No one across the street can see anything.
Hi,watching from Quebec, Canada
I live in LA, USA 🇺🇸. Thanks for another fantastic video! Keep them coming! I like how you explain what’s going on, who’s who, and what’s what! Telling some history and other info about anything and everything to do with the guards and royals. If I may say 2 things: a suggestion and a request. First, some videos are ended before the event, or whatever you’re filming, is finished and I wish I could continue watching what you are filming. Is it possible for you to continue filming more? Like this video, for instance, where did the band, guards, and dignitaries go? Why didn’t you film where they were going or what they were going to do? I was left disappointed. Do I make sense? Second, sometimes, when you pan the camera around to show another area, etc., could you pan just a little slower. Everything looks blurry and I get dizzy, like I’m on a merry-go-round 😵💫🤢. Just some constructive criticism. Not meant as a put down. I love your channel and watch your videos almost everyday! Thanks for doing such a great job! 😁🤣😅👍🏻👏🏻👑✨🥁🗡️📯❤️
Watch you from New Mexico, USA. Alamogordo.
Watching this video from the Philippines. We are not a member of the Commonwealth but we do have respect for British tradition and I like the royal family. . I hope someday I will have the chance to see everything in person.

As a Brit, those crowds have grown so much since we left Blighty in 1984.
Watching from. Arizona, USA.
Wow that’s so interesting! Would love to have seen the palace back then. Sometimes it gets that busy in front of the palace now it’s almost gridlocked
Why don't the police stop people crossing in front of the gates and it could be a security spot
It's the only place they CAN cross as its such a vast area and the rest is closed off

Hi watching from South Africa 🇿🇦
Really enjoyed seeing the Entente Cordiale celebrated. My Grandfather was a soldier in WWl and he would have loved to see this
About time the French and the British make friends, there are a lot of real enemies around. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" is an ancient proverb which suggests that two parties can or should work together against a common enemy.
The past is the past. It's a good thing that we Franco British are allies after a Thousand years of fighting each other from the Hundred Years War through the Seven Years War 1756-1763, and until the Napoleonic War 1804-1815.
We finally made peace with each other after a long Colonial rivalry, put aside our differences and joined forces during the Crimean War 1853-1856 against the Russians
I would be enjoying it more if people would stop walking back & forth so much.
Hello from Atlanta, Georgia USA
Why are these events not televised in full for people who cannot get down to London to see them? Exhibitions too are limited to London, the provinces are neglected every time. We pay taxes too, .
Thanks!
Would love to see Aussies back. Don't remember seeing them doing a Guard since 1990... The really looked smart.
Understandable 😍. Thank you again 🫶🏻
French Gendarmerie Nationale is the descendant of the old Marshalcy and Connetably of France, one of the oldest institution created more than 8 centuries ago. In commonwealth, there exoists an institution which refers and takes its tradition from it : the MPC (GRC), the Gendarmerie Royale du Canada. Indeed, after the loss of Canada, British government which was well aware that the french canadians coudl represent a "problem" for security of the colony recently won to the French. The French Mareshalcy was very reputed and well accepted by French canadians. Therefore, British gov decided to keep this mixed police/military force in service. It permitted to keep the public order in Canada over the centuries. Sure, they changed the uniform andthe armories, but their traditions, their status and their mentalities are very near to the french gendarmes of those old time.
Watching from Houston, Texas

Our Allies. How wonderful ❤️
Hello: Bremerton, WA USA
Vive la France! And long live britania
Arizona here
Tak!
Thank you very much for your generous support, really appreciate it! 🙏
They belong to the Garde Républicaine. They presented arms to HRH the Duke of Edinburgh and the French Ambassador, so in fact they didn't actually take up guard duties in front of the Royal Palaces, so you couldn't really call it a Changing of the Guard as such. But évidement it was a very nice gesture. I think that it should be pointed out that the talks leading to The Entente Cordiale were initiated by King Edward VII in person. He was a frequent guest of the Breteuil family at their château south of Paris.
Makes me so proud.
Hello from the state of Nevada, USA.
Good to see these two countries despite many years of conflict in the past they still have each other.
Remember, the French imperial Guards considered to be the best during 18th century, but later on defeated by the Duke of Wellington with his Red Coat army together withe the Great Prussian Army.
Nevertheless British and French now considered brothers.
People should be where they need to be and stay there until event is over. Blocking the other spectators and very disrespectful
People have no respect so sad
Hi there! I came from Derby, UK and I’ve visited Buckingham Palace and I also saw a large crowd in the premises of Buckingham Palace I really like the video itself ^_^
I am watching from the state of MI hogan, USA.😊
I wonder how the party was at Wellington Barracks on Sunday night?
I think they might have a party tonight, lots of fun, hopefully 👏
impeccable event. I am in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
