7:57 "Since 2019, when the Sunday times named it the 'Best Place to live in Northern Ireland', it has become so famous as the 'Best Place to live, work and visit in Northern Ireland'. What a thought provoking sentence
I can't decide if the funniest thing is a) calling Bangor, Bango; b) showing a picture of HMS Belfast in London as if it's in NI; c) mentioning Ulster as a place to live in NI.
Nice to hear something nice being said about our beautiful wee province for a change but Omagh? Seriously? The pronunciation of the town names is hilarious. Strangford Loff? A well connected Loff 🙏 give me strength. Belfast, Derry and Ulster are also good places to live? Northern ireland is Ulster?
@judelyons1 I lived in Dromore for many years. Never found Omagh friendly. Tyrone is one big bog. Had to drive to Gortin Glen or Necarne Castle to walk the dogs and Gortin Glen is tiny. Tyrone is just one big bog. Just my personal opinion. No offence :0)
Dublin, the capital of Northern Ireland, is a fantastic place to live too. My friend Dawson told me to meet him at the Castle, before we went to Mackaraafeelme for tea😅😂🤣😳😉👍🏻 Sorry for any offence caused. Spearmint mountains are a background beauty too.. What a treat🤔
The last time I was there, I met a jolly fella called Dawson Castle. I was later told his real name was Simon from Castle Dawson. Sorry for any confusion 😳😉

@@myapinion7532 Hi. Thanks for being upfront. No one can know everything I certainly don't. The fact is that Cavan Monaghan and Donegal are traditionally Ulster counties. Northern Ireland is an artificially created political entity Ulster is traditional and historic. Northern Ireland might have had more legitimacy if it had included all of the province of Ulster.
@@jamesbovington8218 He said 'While Belfast, Derry and Ulster are good places to live in Northern Ireland...', so l was just meaning that Ulster is the whole area, not a town or city within Northern Ireland, as it implies.
The talking robot should be unplugged for not promoting Portrush and Ballycastle even higher. The north Antrim / Derry coast is one of the best parts of the UK (but for how much longer will it be in the UK after Brexit?) Lovely part of the world whoever it 'belongs' to.
@@jamesbovington8218 No because the British Isles is a term which includes Ireland. As far as the narrator is concerned he did a good job to attract non-Irish citizens to the province, which is surely what business wants.
This is dumb. The list has towns like ballycastle and hillsborough. Then the whole flipping county of Fermanagh. And the pronunciations were really bad, you should read it yourself rather than getting a bot to do it!
Portrush at six lol. It's a dirty seaside town with nothing in it except families of Belfast folk who've been renting the same caravan their granny did 40 yrs ago over the 12th fortnight to escape the bands.
You obviously don't know the first thing about Northern Ireland! 😂 This whole video is incredibly inaccurate to say the very least!! 😂 p.s I'm Northern Irish & have lived here my whole life. This guy is clueless! 😂
Almost every video he puts out is full of errors and uninformed opinion. I wonder if it's deliberate to stimulate comments, or if it's just that doing any basic research is far too much to ask.
Looks like Northern Ireland, like the Republic, is in danger of being ruined by 'asylum abuse' immigration, like many other places. The troubles legacy probably slowed down the creeping menace but the process is definately speeding up.
Belfast , Derry and Ulster ? are also good places to live in Northern Ireland ??? Someone needs to revisit the "Learning Canteen" and learn about the geography of a region before making a video full of mistakes and mispronunciations, embarrassing !
What a hoot! Dodgy photography and numerous pronunciation mistakes, and a script seemingly cobbled together from an old Sunday Times article by someone who has never set foot in "our wee country". Snort!
Whatever the hype about the Northern Ireland backwater I like to quote Churchill who in 1922 commented: " The whole map of Europe has been changed … but as the deluge subsides and the waters fall short we see the dreary steeples of Fermanagh and Tyrone emerging once again.” ...dreary...'nuff said!!!
Wasn't behind the door during WWII. Told Devalera (Irish Republic). If they helped Britain during the war he would give him the 6 counties. Basically told to get on your bike. Churchill was chased out of Northern Ireland.
Makes me laugh the way English people pronounce things 🤣🤣🤣 Where's Portstewart on the list?? If you're from the Northcoast you'll know its far nicer than Portrush
The locations could be right, but the order was clearly wrong. Fermanagh should have topped the list, something so self-evident, it’s probably not worth mentioning.
I like the sound of this place Bango. It has to be better than the dump I live in now, Bangor. I wonder if Bango is near Strangford Loff? And how great is it that Newtownards made the list and Bango...I mean, Bangor didn't? I can imagine the angry gnashing of teeth. Both towns are absolute shiteholes, by the way.
Belfast is actually decent for the most part. Good nightlife and friendly people. But what got me was on weekdays how the city centre felt absolutely deserted during the working day, then everyone appeared from nowhere to go out for lunch, then they went back to work and the city was deserted again. Didn't seem to be much in the way of cars, or people going shopping or just walking about. It was quite eerie. That and public buildings like courts, police stations etc. looking like fortresses. The police stations I saw in Belfast were more secure than some of the military bases I've seen here on the UK mainland.

Has the person who made this video, ever been too Northern Ireland?
Holywood in Northern Ireland is spelt with one L and it's not to be Confused with Hollywood in California spelt with two Ls.
Very good video ty
Holywood is such a lovely friendly place and I definitely recommend staying there
As someone who has lived in Holywood my whole life I totally agree
@@Yasmin-ue2yq yes! I lived there aswell and everyone seems to know one another or are very friendly.
Did you ever visit a chip shop called Georgias?
@@Yasmin-ue2yq yes in Holywood! So sad it shut down.
I know, aidy, me and my friends still get sad when we go by it.😔

A hog Hill was another great one.
Oh no the pronunciations are beyond awful, should have done your research
Haha this was a joke lol
I've lived in Co. Down all my life and never heard of Strangford loff lol
The name is Fermanagh, it's one of the Counties in Northern Ireland
It would help if the towns were pronounced properly
7:21 im sorry, BANGO?! i think you'll find theres an r at the end good sir
You missed Portstewart ghosh can’t believe you didn’t even mention it🙄🤦🏽♀️
I recommend Kilkeel and Newcastle. Most of N.I is very scenic though.
Kilkeel….. aye…
I have cycled from Belfast to Kilkeel via Newcastle, so I agree with your comment
The commentator's pronunciation of many of Northern Ireland's towns is hilarious.
It's one of those bot voices
Strangford Loff 😂😂😂
Shocking AI commentary.
😂😂 the meaning of Ballycastle is all wrong to. In another video it was laugh kneea lough Neagh

What a thought provoking sentence
Come on ffs, Loff, Mackerafelt and then Bango!? 😂
They don't know how to spell
It gave me a good laugh though 🤣
Holywood, Co Down, has the greatest concentration of charity shops for a small town.
And ive never heard Bangor called Bangoh.
Magherafelt is not in Fermanagh 😵💫
Magheravela is.
This guy's names and criteria all over the place, He lists a whole county next to a village and a lot of intermediate settlements.
How did Omagh and
Newtownards get on to that list, you know he's not from here, couldn't say half the names
I can't decide if the funniest thing is a) calling Bangor, Bango; b) showing a picture of HMS Belfast in London as if it's in NI; c) mentioning Ulster as a place to live in NI.
And, how could I forget, 10 "cities" 😂
What's a loff?
I'm not saying this reflects NI, but the video makes the towns look really drab.

Lough is pronounced loch, as in Scotland.

This has to be an AI voiceover. I human could fuck up that many names of these well known places.
This is dumb. The list has towns like ballycastle and hillsborough. Then the whole flipping county of Fermanagh. And the pronunciations were really bad, you should read it yourself rather than getting a bot to do it!
@Amanda Dan shut up
I think the nicest place to live in North Ireland is probably Australia
Ards made it on the list 😊
What about the ards peninsula or was that included on the list already under ards. Bangor not on it 😂
Portrush at six lol. It's a dirty seaside town with nothing in it except families of Belfast folk who've been renting the same caravan their granny did 40 yrs ago over the 12th fortnight to escape the bands.
Northern Ireland isn’t one of the provinces of Ireland. It consists of six counties within one of the provinces.
Very clear and friendly description. Thanks.

It’s the northern part of Ireland
I enjoyed lough pronounced as 'loff' as well
@@martinburns5404 no don’t you ever dare say that…… I’m warning you
there's no different in the pronunciation of that for many people.
Looks like Northern Ireland, like the Republic, is in danger of being ruined by 'asylum abuse' immigration, like many other places. The troubles legacy probably slowed down the creeping menace but the process is definately speeding up.
Don't emphasise the 'g' in Magherafelt.
Did a computer just randomly select random towns? These are NOT the best places to live

Please someone teach these voiceover people how to pronounce names properly, if you don't know then research it 😖
Wtf, you showed Whitehead about 5 times but never featured it. It's your damn thumbnail for god sake lol
The entire county of Fermanagh. Like are you having a laugh. Not much research done for this video.
Even the stock images he's using are full of sectarian fleg shit and closed shops.
Strangford loft. Good God.
Four provinces of the UK? That's a new one!
What a load of absolute nonsense.
Spent first 32 years her left 37 years ago and won’t be back.
Pronunciation is so awful and how did he pick these places. Why is Newcastle and Warrenpoint not on the list??
It's clearly an AI generated voice, reading an AI generated script that was pre-trained on tourist guides and the Sunday Times.
Whatever the hype about the Northern Ireland backwater I like to quote Churchill who in 1922 commented: " The whole map of Europe has been changed … but as the deluge subsides and the waters fall short we see the dreary steeples of Fermanagh and Tyrone emerging once again.”

Wheres moira, Ballinderry and agalee
Makes me laugh the way English people pronounce things 🤣🤣🤣
Where's Portstewart on the list??
If you're from the Northcoast you'll know its far nicer than Portrush
Was thinking the same myself. Take omagh otf and get portstewart to the no1 spot
You’re having a Lough.
The locations could be right, but the order was clearly wrong. Fermanagh should have topped the list, something so self-evident, it’s probably not worth mentioning.
You showed the ugliest spots imaginable in Ards.
Lol I saw Corry St and I think East Street
NI isn't a province it's a constituent nation.
Don't know where you got your top ten from. Lol. Also before recording you should have got advice as to how to pronounce the places. Lol

It's not a province! Its just a region.

Belfast, Derry & Ulster!! 😂
What? No Craigavon? Just joking!
The spelling and pronunciation was bad to say the least.
A load of unresearched tosh I’m afraid. I live close to many of these places but the film and pronunciation are pathetic. What about the Mournes?
