When we pulled into Portsmouth Naval Base in 1992, Warrior was the first historic ship we could see. I'm something of a naval history fan and already knew about the Warrior but my division officer, the Intelligence Officer had no idea. Knowing my interest he asked me what I knew about 'that frigate.' "HMS Warrior was the first sea going iron hulled warship, built even earlier than our USS Monitor or CSS Virginia ironclads." He ended up accompanying me on a tour of her.
A beautiful and fascinating ship, a link between the ships of Nelson's day and the battleships and cruisers of the first half of the 20th Century. Well done in saving her Britain.
In 2000 I came from Aussie to see Victory then discovered Warrior. I intended to stay a day and stayed a month. I slept in Lady Hamillton pub and become a local.
I was in a world trip and when I returned home this was an equal with Cape Canaveral in the world for me.
The people on the hard were very kind to me and showed me stuff others didn't see.
Very important piece of maritime history. Well done all involved.
The people that worked on her to bring her up to the standard that is now on display are to be admired, this is a work of love that will be around for another century for their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren to marvel at. They can say honestly, that they helped to build her, not in 1860, but in 1985 when she was nothing but an unloved hulk. I would love to explore her, but not much chance of that unfortunately. Thank god for You Tube.
Wonderful report. It brings tears to my eyes to see redundant workers brought back to save our naval heritage. How sad for Hartlepool to have to see her go; but thank you for sharing her with the rest of us.
Iv been aboard her ! Mighty beast ! Amazing restoration ❤️🇬🇧makes you proud to be British
Remember seeing her being towed from Pembroke Dock on her way to Hartlepool,then saw her in Portsmouth,what a transformation!
Living in Hartlepool all my life i remember seeing her slowly being renovated, when i first saw her she was just a lump of iron with a concrete deck and looked terrible i used to go and see her every few weeks if i could but the most memorable time was when they finally fitted the Masts i have loads of slides that i must get converted to proper pictures but the saddest moment was when she left and not being able to say Goodby because i was working that day and could not get the time off work
A landmark today in portsmouth, an iconic part of the city and the navy, my uncle got married on that ship
Toured her a couple of years ago........brilliant ! 🤗
Kevin Chappell toured her today, a truly incredible warship
Been down to Portsmouth a few times lately and go on Warrior every time. Such a beautiful ship, the hybrid between engine and sail is really cool and it just looks the piece. It's quite interesting with the new Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers in dock literally around the corner to see how vastly different scales ships of today operate on.
It's great to see these old ships restored and able to set to sea on their own again! Good luck with all the restorations!
My brothers wife's dad did the rigging, amazing work and skill.
I remember having a tour of the ship when I was around 8 years old - I had a cannon ball named after me too - was a great day out.
It's too bad that HMS Dreadnought wasn't preserved as a technology benchmark.
Its amazingly depressing that Britain didn't save one of their battleships, since they invented the battleship.
At least there's Mikasa. Technically British.
@@Boxghost102 Britain was pretty broke after the war and keeping a battleship was not very important at the time but least theres hms Belfast
I think there's an American dreadnought that was preserved, can't remember the name but I know it exists.
@@jack1701e USS Texas? It's in pretty bad shape apparently
@@Boxghost102 Italians did, overall is was a very common idea around the world at that time. Also the only people who glorify weapons are modern peace time babies, back in the day it was an industry and an arms race, noone was out of touch with reality as much as you to waste effort in preserving obsolete weapons.
The dislikes are from angry Gloire crew members
Who cares about dislikes 🤣
ha ha nice one.
Absolutely fantastic.
awesome I have been on that ship in Portsmouth
I done some repair works on her in Portsmouth, back when I was restoring the cutty sark clipper ship, theres no real beauty like these ships anymore
I was quite impressed when I visited in Portsmouth. To be thinking that in my country, women were still walking around half naked when the British were already building this quite magnificent ship is unbelievable... the difference in cultures!
And they cal that progress.
@@evanpenny348
Dont worry women are walking around half naked again these days.... at least during the summer
@@Kakarot64. Yes, a few matlot ladies were kind to me in the undress department in 2000 too. Mostly from the Aircraft Carrier.
Britain was such a leader in science, technology, warfare when needed. Such a small country that basically ruled the world for almost a century.
4 centuries.
Now the "Yank's" think they do.
The Last Pilot you better hope so, free world is screwed without those yanks.
@@samspade3227 America played a small part at the end we had been fighting it for years and spent years after the war still paying of the help they gave us.
The Last Pilot as you will continue.
Micky allen taking the picture of the duke there. Fantastic job and a credit to the people. Shame the fact she was restored in hartlepool barely gets and mention in portsmouth. Trincomalee was a great second prize for the town though.
I live in Hartlepool I remember that when I was a kid before the start of restoring it been around at fishing down the docks catching eels and crabs it stayed in Hartlepool
It took 8 years to restore Warrior and was originally built in 18 months 🇬🇧🍾⚒
It mentions 4 other warships to be restored, I wonder what they were called and if they were completed and where they may be ?
I went to see it when it was just a hull no masts or anything. Must have been about 82. A grey damp day as I remember. I'd have been 12
Best day out ever 👍👍👍👍❤❤
Typical, The North gets the work to do but we cannot keep the finished ship to visit, Shame that everything goes down south!!
They should've kept Warspite, too.
would of prefered vangaurd really
@@imgonelol169 how can you prefer vanguard, a ship that never fired her guns in anger, to warspite a veteran of both world wars??
HMS Warspite is laid up in Devonport dockyard, only another 30 years for the reactors to cool down.
@@timback5279 Different Warspite. I assume Anon means the RN's most decorated battleship a Queen Elizabeth class fast battleship commissioned in 1915. She fought in both world wars and was decommissioned in 1945, and after running aground while being towed to Faslane was eventually broken up in 1950. I've got a cap ribbon and some photo's taken on board by my great uncle when he served on her in between the wars.
And......we didn´t watch her leave Hartlepool.
No. A click bait title, I’m afraid. Like you, I only came to see her being MOVED.
So you dont actually see it leaving, just a lot of people talking about it.
Everything they said about this ships legacy applies to Gloire first.
wow
What year is this report of? It seems like a Soviet Union type TV so much, as it was in the late 80s.
It is a shame that after the HMS Trincomalee was finished the other 4 ship never arrived to be rebuilt.
She's now in her home and everyone loves her next to her older sister victory and her younger sister queen Elizabeth
Incredible feat of engineering for 1860's.
Which ships followed Warrior for restoration?
Pete Jones... HMS Trincomalee. Which is still currently at the National Museum of the Royal Navy Hartlepool.
@@Seven-ny6rq Thanks
Those thin topmasts give her away as being steam powered;.
You mean it's not the chimneys?
Been on board this sisters firm done the cannons
No footage of her underway :(
Michael Fisher... There is on this video Michael th-cam.com/video/pr7irRY7MSo/w-d-xo.html
Thanks!
HMS Warrior was the first iron hulled warship , she was not a ironclad warship.
Fred dibnah would be proud
Very disappointing. there is NO footage of her leaving Hartlepool, or of her being moved even one foot. This is a television report about the fact that she will be moved "tomorrow".
Who wrote this misleading title ? A clickbait expert ?
Lyndar Lehane... What do you suggest the title should be Lyndar? “HMS Warrior leaves Hartlepool for Portsmouth tomorrow” 👀🤪
Seven1111111 Maybe “HMS warrior completed, ready to leave” ?
Or similar? Just something that doesn’t falsely attract those whose only interest is the voyage and it’s difficulties.
Lyndar Lehane... I’ve took a moment Lyndar and think I’ll leave the title as it is. I posted this video 4 years ago along with another two videos I recorded back in 1987/88 about HMS Warrior as nobody else seemed to have them. It was actually a fellow Hartlepudlian who asked me to dig my old VHS tapes out, digitise and share them. Regardless of the title I find this and the other videos I’ve shared very interesting and thought they would interest others too. Misleading title in your opinion? Perhaps? But as for “Clickbait Expert” absolutely not! I would suggest in future holding back on such comments when you are simply judging someone you don’t know.. In this case the person you have judged is me! There is footage of HMS Warrior leaving Hartlepool in 1987 (I was there), which you yourself can find.
First time iv seen footage of Hartlepool and a smackhead wasn't in view
Shush !!!!! Don't tell everybody we are trying to keep it secret we like the town as it is. lots of sandy beaches, Durham city 20 minute drive and North Yorkshire moors 40 mins.
0:15 No one ad Seen anything like her
French Ironclad la gloire: do i exist for you ?
Restored by British craftsmen.
Damn that our forebears did not save ANY sailing ships of the U.S. Navy from the 1860's onward. And just 2 before. CONSTELLATION and Constitution
Ships like her are current navy ship ancestors an monument to navel history an manufacturing capabilities
