- In this episode I celebrate the long welcoming continuity of the old English inn.
perhaps on this occasion you might prefer to buy me a pint, rather than a coffee, but its still the same page and I can magically turn the coffee into beer - many thanks

Algorithm threw this at me. You, sir, are everything that is right with England.
Welcome. you are most kind.
I got it recommended too. At first I thought it was going to be a comedy sketch in line with 'The Fast-show', about an eccentric English gentleman, it had all the hallmarks and clichés of being so. It took about a minute or so to realise the fellow wasn't an actor lol!.
I watched it through to the end though, with splendid interest.
@@gutz323 fills me with genuine sadness that we are being replaced
@@JackBoyle-lp3nqOh Jack. Don't pollute this loveliness with your poison and hate.
@@mcnichollsdj Its hard data and I'm not hateful towards people trying to make a better life for themselves, just stating there are consequences. You speak in platitudes and slogans, no original thoughts.
There is hope, an English gentleman puffing on a pie whilst drinking a pint and reading from a book getting over 100k views.
Thank you.
If u see hope in this the situation is desperate
@@matthewtaylor7355 I think the situation in the UK is approaching desperate.
The simple such as smoking a pipe and a visit a tobacconist is something that will soon be lost.
I’m sure he’s seen his share of pies as well
@matthewtaylor7355 I bet you are a Twitter, Tiktok and/or Instagram user. Go cry about how much this offends you.
@@calebballantine3402More than you've seen love from your mother.
Just discovered your channel. It’s a comfort in these modern, hectic and selfish times.
Thank you.
This dropped into my recommended today and I'm glad. It is so lovely and comfortable. I love old books, for one thing, and nostalgia and chatting. This was very enjoyable! :)
Same for me as well. I don't know what told the algorithm to suggest this, but it was right on.
glad you enjoyed it!
YOOOOO!!! Shirley is on this channel too?!?! awesome!!!
@@donprovolone1425 right?!
Love ya Grandma Shirley.
I have no clue what is going on and why this was recommended but I'm here and I'm listening ... this is strangely calming
I have the same experience. I think I need to re-evaluate my life, and live more like this fellow, and less on my phone.
This man seems so elegant and fancy, yet not arrogant. Very down to earth human being.
As a recovered alcoholic and chronic recovered nicotine addict I’m so envious of the simple pleasure of a pint and a lovely pipe. It’s a joy to watch you doing it instead Malcolm x
thanks for such a generous comment. I hope to provide you with vicarious pleasure but never with temptation. I regard recoveries such as yours as amongst the great unsung deeds of personal heroism.
I understand you my friend completely , whilst I can have a pint and control it I had to stop smoking, as I developed asthma and copd post covid , oh how I long for one last CIG, its painfully hard sometimes .
@@desmo9159 Cigars sir
@@desmo9159If it’s nicotine you enjoy why not take up nasal snuff. It’s a delight with all the different flavours and is safe too. I should warn it is still obviously addictive though.

Best of Luck to You and Yours
A rare treat to be welcomed into a hobbit hole!
Pipes, books, god and elegant wisdom; couldnt ask for more, Malcolm!
That really is the list... isn't it?
... and booze.
You can forget about your god. Try a new one. Same as the beers and the tobacco, try out the one's you don't know. Explore!
@@marcvanderiet5592so accepting and tolerant!
@@marcvanderiet5592 Sometimes, the one you already know is good enough, and trying others never appeals.
a pure, beautiful soul. never stop being you sir.
THIS LEGEND MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS!!
Is he in danger ?
@@bartolocasanova Threat or no threat, they shelter gold in Fort Knox; the same respect should be allocated to this legend.
@@nikeflight17He is about as legendary as Jeremy Clarkson or Chris Tarrant
@@matthewtaylor7355 I bet Jeremy Clarkson upsets you so much you cry on Twitter about him.
You remind me of my Dad, i loved him so much. I used to steal his pipe when he wasn't looking and blow into it and pretend i was smoking it! I can still hear the scraping sound as he cleaned out the bowl. I write stories and i always have a grey haired pipe smoking gentlemen in most of them as a tribute to him. Im pretty sure ive got a place for you in the fantasy novel im drafting now. What a splendid chap my character will be!! God bless you and keep you. 🙂
Thanks. I would be honoured to find myself in fiction!
I wish I had a dad like this guy, instead of being the selfish, arrogant, egotistical, sanctimonious narcissist I've had to admit to knowing for the last 5 decades.
The only thing he had in common with the owner of this channel, was that he smoked a pipe for a time, and drank pints of beer.
This chap looks like someone who I'd be happy to sit in a pub with and ramble on about anything and everything.
Plus he also looks like Dr. Zaius out of Planet of the apes.
@@surebrec5113 its hard accepting the fact that our fathers are selfish malignant narcissists. I take refuge in the fact that I see comments like this and know I am not alone.
That's how I've imagine what Santa is doing at the rest of the year ❤🎅🏻 no offence if so 🤗
I can see the old boys in my Grandparents house in rural Ireland lighting their pipes when I was maybe 10..I loved the smell...they drank whiskey, played cards and had discussions...I stayed up late and was enthralled...none of them had much but it was the best of times circa 1985
Pipes, pint, and pensiveness. Pure gold.
Well met good Sir! The world desperately needs more like you. Humanity is losing it's soul...
Now this is what the internet needs.I find the new technology seems to separate us all so much, sitting down and having a chat with a pint and a pipe makes it more palatable.
I love Tennyson’s work I live very close to his house, the lane leading up to it is called Tennyson lane, I often go camping on the hill which is called (Blackdown) near Lurgashall, and Haslemere in Surrey, it’s steeped in history, last year I worked on a house which once belonged to sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the owners kindly let me have an old fire grate from one of the fireplaces, it’s now in my wood burner and I can’t help but sit here with the fire roaring on a cold winters evening, thinking that once upon a time Doyle, along with some of his friends like Bram stoker, Oscar Wilde and Harry Houdini all sat round this fire grate and had some very interesting conversations.
This is brilliant, I've not seen Bill Oddy for ages.
😂😂
omg I thought that too🤣
One of the most cultured members of the TH-cam Pipesmoking Community right here.
You are the grandfather I never had. My grandfather was a jerk with no imagination because he had too much money and was too uptight. I hope I'm like you when I grow old.
Everyone must watch this man’s videos immediately. This is the best non-whispering/soft spoken ASMR video I’ve ever experienced
Just a lovely commentary on what a wonderful thing a pipe is when accompanied with an appropriate beverage. Then with a good read it is absolutely magical.
Glad you enjoyed it
As an Australian I'm envious that you guys have such old buildings
He looks good for 27years old
My Dad's choice of pipe tobacco was Walnut Plug. It was what we children saved pennies for and gave him for Christmas every year. Good memories stirred - thank you.
Thanks for sharing!
No idea why this was recommended....and dont care!! I love this guy!
A most enjoyable first encounter of your channel. Very calming. Thank you
Thank you TH-cam algorithm. I needed this so much! Cheers!
Malcolm you have become one of my favorite content creators.
thanks!
i must stop watching your videos as i'm buying too many books.
That's hilarious 😂
Me too! 😄😄😉
And I’ve thought about taking up a pipe!
And pipes 😂
One can never have "too many" books 📚
nothing beats a Pint and Pipe and Prose...stories for your mind and smoke for your nose.
a Joint and a pint beats a pipe any day mate.
That scene reminds me of my Grandpa's personal den with wall to wall bookshelves gathering that old book fragrance.
You earned a like just on the Title Alone !
Enjoy a pint and a pipe, the world would be a better place if more people did ! :-)
Cheers !
Cheers!
A really snuggery place you have there.
Bottoms up!

I love this. Books, pipes and a beverage, tweed coat.
😍
Without a doubt the most enthralling videos I’ve ever seen on TH-cam … absolute masterpieces.
My first Peterson came in a few weeks ago and I love it. It's the Sherlock Holmes Rusticated Original.
Congratulations sir , being a Sherlock Holmes fan I have collected all the original series and the pipe stand for them . It took me awhile and now I have them all in the original 1st series. A fun way to collect and you can never enough Peterson’s . Their pipes are great for the money . Best wishes Mate and happy piping Scott
This is quite possibly one of the best youtube pipe channels ever!! God bless you good sir!
Nice. This is nice. Soothing.
I love books too. What a beautiful room, indeed. Thank You. Cheers!
I like to think that when I light my pipe, I’m connecting with the past. I would love to make it across the pond and visit some of those historic inns and churches some day. Bucket list!
Slainte brother! 🥃💨💨💨
Slainte!
Love to see you settled, cozy and chatting about simple, beautiful pleasures such as Tolkien, pipe smoking, ale/beer and literature etc., in your office/library/nook. One even admits to being a little covetous!
I miss the old style grog house, full of smoke and talk. I'm from the black country where that old English accent is so rich it becomes a dialect when spoken by two or more natives.
A pint and a pipe. 2 of my fave things. Great channel, my friend and cousin across the pond!
I'm really in a sad state of mind these days after losing a beloved relative. I come here to listen to Malcolm and it always calms me. Such a wonderful and pleasant escape from it all.
I'm sorry for your loss and honoured if I can provide some solace!
i am from the lake district, i loved that section about the royal oak, i used to go there for pints all the time
God I've love to hear to read for audio books. You have a lovely voice.
I am so delighted the TH-cam algorithm added this to my feed. A true gentleman
Welcome aboard!
I had the pleasure of working with/supporting an older gentleman quite similar to this man. He was one of the most amazing people to have a conversation with and had such a distinguished, deep and mellow English accent. Listening to him made you feel as of you’d traveled through time. He was incredibly knowledgable and could talk with anyone about almost anything for hours. Watching this video brought back some great memories and made me smile. Thank you for these videos.
I'm glad to have reminded you of a true gentleman!
Truly! It’s a joy to see there are more men like yourself in the world.
A beautiful video. Will never forget my days in Oxford where I discovered the magic of ales and pipe tobacco. Remember smoking my pipes in Eagle and Child, yes those were the days and still hold those memories safe in my heart.
Oh what a comfort this all is in uncertain times, gentle sanity. Thank you.
So very nice to come across your channel. Amazing how one's pipe journey never ends and leads us together as a community. A pleasure to make your acquaintance sir.
I've just found this Channel
He is the kind of guy I miss hanging around in my mind
Much love be upon you
Peace and light Be upon us all
British Pathe' video "The Oldest Inn" (1958) starts out at the White Hart Inn (1388) at Bletchingley, Surrey where for a "ha' penny of the ale and penny worth of smoke" you could enjoy a mulled ale with grated nutmeg on top and a clay churchwarden pipe by the open hearth (after a delicious plate of jugged hare (also cooked over the fire in a 180 year old pressure cooker built for that purpose!)). I hope that place is still open and not did not become an Aldi's.
I've watched that film, and really want to try mulled ale as a result. I'm not sure if I have anything in the kitchen that would work, or whether the barbecue in the garden would heat anything sufficiently. Frustratingly the barbecue is only wheeled out in the summer, when mulled ale isn't exactly called for.
I have no idea how i got here, but glad im here :-)
You went on TH-cam....
Ce monsieur est passionnant je pourrait l'écouter toute la journer, salutation de belgique
Delightful, as always. Now, I'm on the hunt for histories of Inns in Canada...and craving a cigar and a stout.
May be low rent, but my Grandad smoked a pipe and he liked ‘Half & Half. Loved that smell.
Now that i' ve found this channel, i get more regretful not having had opportunity to travel back to Britain as that is my ancestral home where we know from family bibles the two original brothers came over from Nottinghamshire in early 1800. I never had a career that paid enough to fund a trip that expansive. Clock repair and restoration does not really make one a lot of money if one is legitimate.lol depends on where you live in the US.
Anyway, i love your little talks as i always feel that spirit of Englishness that is nostalgic to me and gives me that feeling of closer ties to England.
I love the old pubs and Inns, its one of my fave subjects i like to look up videos about on youtube as there are so many good historical presentations and travel videos of people that go around showing them and how they are built inside.
The bad thing is seeing the videos about the old inns and pubs that had to be closed due to the covid economic crash or idiot government forcing a place to go out of business because they want to reroute a road or something.
Really sad to see many of these great places shuttered and no life as a pub or inn should have.
As an American we call Latikia Virginia blends English blends. My favorite smoke. Ian in my humble opinion no pints are better then the Anglian, Scots and Irish brews we can get here
As you mention the White Hart I had to think about Arthur Clark and his tales of the White Hart. A pint , some bitter pint and a story of Harry Purvis is surely a picture of heaven
Pipe and a Pint. I think few things are made for each other. Although Pipe with a strong cup of tea with the shot of whisky in it is an admirable combination too.
indeed
Reminds me of chats by the late MATCHES 860...not a pipe smoker, but a joy listening to the stories.
Beautiful Video.
I used to love a tin of MacBaren's Virgina Flake. Find it really hard to buy anywhere now!
What a tranquil & delightful video. Thank you so much!
A pint and a pipe is so great.I have a few old pipes and and want to give them a go.
I stumbled across this channel and was delighted and comforted by its content, I’m now a subscriber.
Thank you, sir.
Welcome aboard!
Glad this video popped up in my feed. What a wonderful channel. Thank you, you have a new subscriber. 😊
Welcome aboard!
TH-cam recommendations hitting out with another banger
this is what I imagine the UK is like. perfect.
Es usted lo más parecido a un hobbit, y se lo digo con todo respeto. Adoro y amo la vieja Inglaterra. Sus tradiciones antiguas. La vida rural y tranquila. La cerveza y los libros. Un abrazo desde el sur de España.
We have a local church St Mary the Virgin North Shoebury which is 750 years old. They built the Asda superstore right next to it. The church is now affectionately known locally as St Mary-by-Asda.
My husband's grandfather was a village blacksmith on the Yorkshire Wolds. He was a regular Sunday worshipper. Walking back from parish church to forge after service he would always stop for a pint in the Middleton Arms. When challenged by his Methodist wife he would always claim he was 'thirsting after righteousness'
St. Mary-by-Asda - excellent!
What a great channel! The YT algorithm never gets anything right for me, but for some reason recommended this absolute gem. Cheers, sir, I raise my beer to you as a new subscriber - good literature, pipes, and fine beer, what is not to like! I look forward to tuning in to future videos.
I'm glad the algorithm did the right thing for a change. Welcome aboard!
For most of my life I've been reading again and again C. S. Lewis's Out of the Silent Planet. It's 16 readings so far. Ransom only just reaches Thulcandra, our world, after a sojourn on Malacandra (Mars). It's night and he walks through dark country till he approaches a village. He smells the beer of an inn. Ransom enters. "A pint of bitter, please," he says.
His first words back on Earth.
I have long wished I knew what beers available to me would be closest to the beverage that was drawn for Ransom on that wet night. What I imagine is that it was something like an India Pale Ale -- something nice and hoppy, like Sierra Nevada "Torpedo." But I don't know exactly.
Suggestions would be welcome, especially in case anyone's had a good glass of bitter in England and then found something available in the States that was close.
it would have been a regular 'session' bitter. If he was in Oxfordshire it might have been Hook Norton Brewery's 'Old Hooky'
@@MalcolmGuitespellThank you! I'll try to find out if that's available here in the Upper Midwest. Probably we need a Rosetta Stone of Beer, though -- something that would indicate close (?) equivalents of English beers with American beers. With the great growth of craft beers here in the States, I would think that this goal would not actually be ridiculous. The carving of this Rosetta Stone of Beer must be the work of masons who have travelled to both places, unlike myself.
Oh man. Just found your channel and within first 10 seconds subscribed! Hah. Everything in that room shouts at my interest:-). Ardberg. Ukule. Ok. I better press play now and actually watch video :-)
Welcome aboard!
I wish this gentleman was my neighbor. We’d have jolly good chats and share pipes and pints regularly. We’ll have to continue in spirit. Best wishes from a random backyard shed in Arizona!
OMG! You can't get more British than this! Wonderful presentation, sir. Bravo!
Your last comment about the Inn and the Church reminds me of a moment in the Simpsons movie, at which moment the townspeople become convinced of their impending doom, and everyone who was in the bar ran out and into the church, and everyone in the church ran out and into the bar. :)
Why am I watching this, I don’t believe in god, I don’t smoke and i rarely drink. Yet in my world of overly complicated technology, which I play my part in, surrounded by phone wandering zombie's, constantly staring into the abyss of not so social media, tripping over each other's likes. Gone are the days when Tik Tok was owned by a lovely old clock, marking the passing of time, when things meant more and good manners came naturally.
My written English is poor because I was one that didn’t listen at school. Ironically now I just read as much as I can, I love the magic of words and the world they take me to, the minds I get to invade before retreating to healthier dreams.
You are very soothing and very interesting in a strangely hypnotic way, puffing your way through to somewhere timeless, a nice place to have accidentally discovered.
Quoting a very funny man, ‘May your god go with you’
Thank You 🙏
I’ve just found you Sir. You are a rare delight and I’ve subscribed. I hope you’re well x
Welcome aboard!
A chance and lucky find…. I came across your channel one evening whilst venturing down the TH-cam rabbit hole. A very easy and comforting watch…. Tolkien readings and observations are just wonderful as indeed are all the subjects you cover. I’m an ex smoker and find myself envious and yet appreciating and enjoying your enthusiasm for your fine pipes and tobacco! Superb 😊
Thanks, and welcome!
what an interesting and relaxing guy
Just discovering your videos now, but glad I found you. Touching and encouraging video. Cheers from a British American.
This is what I needed. I’m Navajo so I love story telling like my grandma and grandpa also my parents use to tell me and my sisters when we were kids were the most memorable and beautiful thing ever for me. Also some scary stories too. Since I got older like 12 I’ve been reading books and collecting them, also comic books and graphic novels. Im a bookworm but I don’t tell my friends. J love your stories and pipe collection.
I play these videos at night before bed his conversional voice is very nice to listen to
I have just discovered this channel, it is absolutely wonderful.
Welcome Aboard!
My friend worked in Peterson's Shop on Grafton street in the heart of Dublin. Lovely place to visit. Great channel!
See Malcolm sitting there, telling form the books and smoking one of his pipes, he surely knows how to enjoy (his) live!
That's a wonderful haircut sir!
I visited London in march hoping to see something like this, somewhere. What I saw instead, was some mixture of Somalia and Turkey.
Malcolm you are a beautiful man full of wisdom and thank you so much for being yourself in this world of mass 'content' and the pace of it all. This is not content and is completely genuine. As people have said, we stay because of you, not because of the prize at the end of the video etc etc. Listening to you is so relaxing and very interesting as well. I have no idea how but you resemble the personality of all my grandparents in one soul! You are a hero. Keep it up ol' dude.
How refreshing you are. Books i still have, but had to give up my wine and smokes.. how i miss them. And how i wish i had a splendid fellow like yourself to sit down with and have interesting conversations.
Surely this is as good as it gets.
Was trying to learn how to blow rings and found this channel. and so I still sit here not quite getting them but relaxing and having a good laugh, couldn't have found a better way to end my day.
Ever since my daughter moved to the UK I have wandered whenever I visit in search of you although I didn't know it was you I was looking for
I just ordered my very first Peterson pipe this morning.
Love the story and content , very interesting subject, not to heavy , I love old Inns & Pubs , old churches are another interest , you might find how place names come about and there origins and how they evolved into what we have today , I find the subjects interesting, love your Sherlock Holmes pipe and Tankard, one of my Aunties bought me a pewter Tankard for my 21st Birthday and my Mum bought me a Meecham lined Brier pipe , so the two go together throw a good book in there and you can be quite content with yourself. Thank you Malcom 😊
Can't beat a good smoke. I'm having a roll up. That's what I believe helped closed the pubs by banning smoking 🚬 Want a meal go to a restaurant chippy cafe etc
Excellent ale choice! Lovely listening to you. Thank you.
That's a good drop of ale, is that. I think my personal favourite of theirs is 'Ghost Ship'. Here in North Yorkshire, I'm lucky enough to live close to both the Black Sheep and Theakston breweries. All the best to you, Malcolm. Keep doing what you do 👍🏻.
yes Black Sheep is especially good!
@@MalcolmGuitespell I can imagine that a pint of Black Sheep's 'Riggwelter' would be especially good with a pipe. Strong and dark. I've never been a big drinker, but I feel it is my duty, nay privilege, as a Yorkshireman to partake in the pleasures of this fine land once in a while.
This is quality content is very gentle on the senses. These days, I find that super refreshing. Thank you for the video, and cheers.
I’ve just recently read that story in your book and it’s so nice to hear you read it aloud! Going to enjoy a pipe now and look forward to your next video! Cheers
