I'm originally from Old Swan and moved to St Helens 22 Years ago, I currently work as a taxi Driver for Saints cars. Thanks for posting this on here, It was very interesting.
I love going back to St Helens every summer... too bad i didn't get the accent though... my dad moved to the middle east and that meant i had to sound like someone from london
idontremembermylogin Everyone sounds different around here. I was born here and I sound like I’m from the South even though I have a northern family. We all pick up strange accents. There isn’t an original accent for st helens

Why has this comment section on this video become a medium for venting hate towards this town and its people? If you don't like St Helens then please don't waste your precious time typing it into TH-cam and then watching this video, anyone would think you actually like this place.
Wow. This is a really nice video - thank you. Many images flod the screen. I particularly like 2:15 - if you don't know, it's a line for the cinema (the Market Pub is across the road in the bacground). You also see Pilks Head Office under construction 2:40
Im from st.helens,and its good,and bad.like a lot of the country is. No point being a hater,if u dont like it,move on. Its not terrible,nor is it amazing, its a nice town.
st helens is an urban densely populated town with some mountain scenery that is filled with people drinking wilst watching "good old jeremy" in the middle of the day living of the glory days if the once great and powerful British empire and the world changing industrial revolution
My people on my dad's paternal side came from St. Helens..they were coalminers and 3 brothers including my gt. grandad came to Canada ..yes I guess it is a pretty scruffy town but again back then the people had to be tough to survive..it was one of the most densely populated town in northern England during victorian times and life was harsh.
I live in St Helens.. However I must admit it's a shithole full of uneducated bullies who think they're 'hard', wannabe 12 year old gangsters, parents who don't give a single fucks about their children and hardened criminals.
you wont get any opportunities spelling like that ('opertunites')deary me lol,in fact St.Helens like a lot of other northern towns built the country,if it wasnt for them England would'nt have ANYTHING going for it.
Do not criticize other people`s spelling and then make spelling mistakes of your own. It is wouldn`t and wasn`t, the apostrophe indicating where the missing letter, i.e. "o", was.Tut tut.
I love St Helens, when ever I hear this track now it reminds me of it. I love the St Helens accent too.
