Haha, yes, I was worried I had the wrong weekend at first too, only me dressed up for the first hour and getting a few strange looks from the locals lol. So nice that you got the South Shields/Fort William crew all in frame, I cut some of their heads off, too busy talking instead of watching what I was filming but lovely people. I loved Ravens Morris, so good and so funny too, especially at the start when they had a few sound issues, all good fun. Despite film of an empty plate, filmed inside Mr Chips, I did feel very guilty enjoying them by myself when Mrs Metalman was ill at home, having said that, it is my turn this weekend, I feel awful :o(. Cheers Alan
that is the quietest steampunk weekend we have ever witnessed. we are in touch constantly with so many attendees and I think sadly that the July Steampunk which falls in the highest price Whitby school holidays falls exact centre between the two most popular (and way cheaper events in the UK and possibly planet). Fantasy Forest which was held a week previous is the biggest upcoming festival event on the planet and Steampunk Lincoln which is the biggest steampunk event on the planet is coming up soon. I think a lot chose not to attend this year and unless the July Whitby event shifts dates it will find itself in a quagmire of steampunk events that are more popular and cheaper for most to attend. Ravens Morris are amazing, I think between Brid and Whitby I must have two hours of glued to the screen footage of them. love them. loved your Mr Chips eat in, very sad to have missed you, I took the cameo shot from February and put your fish and chips from Saturday on there just to cover your gopro! all our love to you and the lovely Mrs Metalmanxx
It was indeed a most splendid weekend. A cornucopia of intriguing and creative costumes. A convivial atmosphere was achieved by the gentle and friendly Steampunk community. Well done to all.
So sorry we didn't get to chat to you guys more at Whitby. We were diving off to see The AntiPoet set on the stage. You look like you had a fantastic day. Just as well I wasn't wearing my outfit from the Sunday as you might not have recognised me, there were quite a few who didn't realise until they got chatting to me. I was wearing the official court suit of the Speaker of the house of commons from the 1980s. Hope you avoided the rain at the end of the day. Great to see all the people you met. It was such a fantastic weekend.
I definitely didn’t recognise you on the previous occasion! what a brilliant idea to go as a Speaker from the House of Commons! superb! hopefully get to see more of you at the Lincoln event!
Such a fun event in a beautiful place and I love all of the costumes including Jills 😃 and the way people go to sooo much trouble. The Morris dancers are great helping to create an atmosphere and the live music sounded great. So many people were here and great that they are willing to talk to you. I saw Alans video last week which was really good too and I know he went in that fish and chip shop and enjoyed it 😃Loved the Dean Swoosh and you had a great day for this. Brilliant 👏~ Anna ❤
Hi Anna we loved the Dean swoosh to they are all just amazing people so genuine and full of creativity! Hope you and Alf are having a lovely weekend! Take care! Ta Ta for now ❤️
You really got into the spirit of things guys. Love the outfit Jill. Lovely catching up with friends and meeting new ones. It did look a bit overcast weather wise..but the spirits were up by all accounts. Love the enthusiasm of the people dressed up. Love visiting Whitby again- such a lovely place. Cool costumes all round really. Husband off to Castlefest in half an hour- Hop ehe sends some photos. Have an awesome Sunday. 🩷🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
Fantastic view Whitby Steampunk Festival, indeed! The participants found inspiration behind their unique styles. This is amazing events; the ambience really impresses me. Thank you for sharing it with us to see.
You managed to show the spirit of this festival, the costumes also helped a little to make this another atmospheric and somehow special upload. Small cute cafes and streets are like postcards! 👏
That’s really beautiful and amazing to see this type of events. People are really cool and game for the events. Nice 👍 dresses and Jill you look gorgeous ❤️. Have a great day 👍.
I love watching your adventures to the Steam Punk Festival. Awesome that your both dressed up for the festivities too. Wonderful day out! So many creative costumes! Nicely done! 👍😊🇨🇦
Some amazing costumes again, some are just so clever. Thanks for taking us for a look around. We’re booked up for the end of October in Whitby for the Goth/Steampunk weekend which we’re looking forward to and we hope to catch you there! Have a lovely rest of the weekend, all the very best, David & Rachel 👍❤
What an awesome experience thank you so much ! I love going to the Steampunk Festival with you Nick and Jill...what lovely people! Sorry there was no parade...hoping there will be one next time!!! Lots of old favorite's though! So much fun..
Loved this guys, you both got into the sprit of the festival and Jilly, you looked gorgeous! Loved the outfits. Mind you some incredible costumes, it never fails to amaze me some of the publics amazing creations, so interesting and fun to watch! xx
I always love seeing the Steampunk festival, there are always so many amazing and creative costumes. It's sad that the parade has been cancelled. I hope you'll have a great weekend.
Hi guys, we always enjoy watching your Steampunk Festival videos. Loved your outfit, Jill! It's great that everyone seems to know you - you're like steampunk royalty! Glad to see the weather was nice for the event.Shame about the parade being cancelled and the copyrighted music. Some absolutely fabulous costumes. Very enjoyable - brilliant vlog! ❤😊
Thank you so much ladies we always love attending these as you know and sharing them with you all! we were disappointed as was looking forward to the parade but the country is on some kind of high alert so is restricting large groups getting together 🤷🏻♀️ Hope you all have a lovely weekend ❤️
Always so great to see all the smiles of everyone's face...just all out having such a wonderful time!! I was hoping you'd find Alan and steal some of his chips!! LOL Have a fantastic weekend!
Hi Bruce lol he wouldn’t give up his chips 🤣 yeah it was a shame we missed him always great meeting up with YT friends. Hope you and Otis are well and having a nice weekend! Are you on Insta Bruce? ❤️ 🍌
Great fun at this yearly event always great see in costumes and of course witby great interactions and as you said did not seem so many people there as past year. I bet you have made many friends go in to these events great work as always guysx
I know I say this every time but the costumes just keep getting better! Even though there weren't as many people there... the costumes were still great!
Ahh great stuff guys 👍 one if our favorite pics is under whale bones you always chat to such interesting people 👌 brilliant 👍 thise dancers were good 👍👍 Glyn and Carol
wonderful Cosplay gathering, still glad that at least one seaside town welcomes all sorts, will be across soon for the folk week and for those interested it is the place to watch that week out door dance displays including Border morris, sword, Playford.
Hi Gary thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! There is always something fun going on in Whitby it’s a great seaside town for sure! We were lucky enough to catch a folk weekend a few years back and really enjoyed that too! Have a great time when you visit be sure to say hello if ever you see us there! Enjoy the rest of the weekend 👍
LB.., you have to get past your fear of doll! Hugo is now a GenX team member and is lovely (even willing to do keto 🤣) we have had him a while…. there was one night he was in the lounge and when we awoke he was sat on the end of the bed!!!! 🤣 just kidding he resides in our bedroom and hasn’t killed us yet! Have a fabulous weekend ❤️
Great event Nick and Jill 😊 must be nice to see some of the same people each year and some new ones of course as well. Some nice outfits there 😁 and the two dogs were very cute 😊
It looks like a fantastic event as always and must be such a boost for the Whitby economy, especially as the weather was so good. So many wonderful things available to purchase and wonderful costumes. Its like you are surrounded by old friends and had a fab day.
Morning guys Hope you are both well and had a fabulous weekend We really need to visit Whitby for one of the festivals, they look so much fun and everyone seems so friendly ❤ The costumes are amazing Loved the Ravens Morris dancers, don't think Boo would have been too keen though Jill you looked great Shame you missed Alan What a shame the parade was cancelled. Nice to meet up with old friends too Have a great day ❤
@@morgsjoboo2247 Thanks guys! Whitby is fun! But our latest was Lincoln we visited last Saturday! That’s the biggest Steampunk festival in the world and just across the bridge for you guys! Yeah We are surprised and get quite annoyed when people don’t pick up their little dogs when there are so many people about it must be petrifying for them 🐶🙈 Hope you had a lovely weekend and have a great week ahead ❤️
This looks like a fun festival ‘ so happening and lotsa attractions too ! Thanks for sharing - love it ! Ps. We don’t have it here in Tuscany, so this is very interesting to me ❤
Hi there TiTi hope you are well! Yes we do enjoy these festivals we have met so many fabulous people covering them! Hope summer in Tuscany is treating you well it sure looks gorgeous in your latest short! Have a lovely weekend ❤️
Looked another fabulous festival although I maybe wrong but didn't seem as busy as usual. Dratted copyright music might not help. Some great costumes on display and Jill getting in on the act. I thought she'd joined the morris dancing type troupe at one point. Boo to no parade
Don’t give her ideas Paul lol We always enjoy these festivals as you know but this one was a lot quieter than usual but it fell the week after the huge Fantasy Forest event down south. It must become an expensive past time for participants with so many different events on around the country plus the big Lincoln Steampunk og is in a few weeks! 👍
Yes, we always love a Whitby vid! Loving Jill's outfit! Oh no why was the parade cancelled? Love a bit of morris dancing. This event seems quieter than other ones? We love the clothes for sale at the Pavillion! You guys are celebs at these events!! Get eat video 🍻
sadly we are all on high alert after the Southport stabbing. no mass gathering is permitted for the foreseeable, even though the despicable culprit is British with no ties to terrorist organisations. well at least we have a police state. it was a bit quieter, I think how it falls between the Fantasy Forest and Steampunk at the Asylum has made it expensively unpopular.
Nice always good seeing Whitby. I still can’t work out the difference between Steampunk and and goths. They all look the same to me 🤷🏻♂️🤣. Love seeing you two exploring this great place. Very enjoyable watch. Have a great weekend. 👍🏻🚶♀️🚶🏻♂️
The styles are definitely merging. Steampunk used to be more brown leather, brass and definitely more Victorian costume and machinery. The Goth scene was always rooted in the music, even then you had the punk side and the Victorian goths.
Andy hits the nail on the head perfectly. I think what confuses a lot of people and certainly a lot of goths that watch and don’t attend the goth festival is that, having known a lot of these attendees for several years now, I know they are goth 365 days a year and yet for the goth festivals they like to dress up which really seems to offend a lot of back bedroom keyboard warrior goths! that being said, shockingly at this event there were more pirates than steampunks! I didn’t film any of them as it just seemed odd to me. who knows what we will get at the next event? have an awesome weekend!
@GENerationXplorers I have a goth friend. He's been a goth since the 80s, definitely the genuine article, and used to organise the Whitby Kustom car show. He never sets foot in Whitby when Goth Weekend is on now. I think it's a bit sad (no puns about goths being miserable intended) that some feel it isn't their event anymore and stay out of town.
@OutandaboutwithAndy yeah it’s a real shame, it’s ironic too as I know what a lot of these attendees look like the rest of the year and they are definitely genuine goths, they use the event as an excuse to dress up. It definitely puts off a lot of other goths!
@@GENerationXplorers as the saying by John Lydgate goes 'You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.'
Looks like a great day out again. Not as busy, I think it's easy to compare it with how busy the WGW gets. Loving Nick's accessorised bucket hat. The 'ghost of Alan Metalman and his fish and chips' as a great edit 🤣
Hi Andy, yes this was the quietest I’ve seen it. It must be the most expensive event for people to attend being situated in the middle of the School Summer holidays in a popular seaside holiday destination resort. they would be better served holding it at the end of June or start of July. it also sits between two of the most popular events in the UK which are attended by everyone, the Fantasy Forest the week earlier and the Lincoln Asylum which is at the end of August and is the biggest steampunk event on the planet. I’ll be attending the Lincoln Asylum again, hopefully we will see everyone at that event! shame we missed Alan at the event, I went later as the parade usually starts to get ready at 5pm and lasts till 6pm and I really had planned on that being the main focus of the video. Sadly a criminal lack of info on the Southport stabbings meant the whole of the UK was on high terror alert and no gatherings of any kind were allowed. still hoping to get you and your fantastic photographic skills at this event. we need more skilled photographers! 👍 have an awesome weekend
@GENerationXplorers Yeah, I'm hoping at some point to get along to another Steampunk event (I did do one which featured on my photography channel, like this one, it was a quiet affair but I got some shots.) The WGW seems always to take place in the worst of British weather. I'd like to get to the Krampus Run. One issue I have is getting to Whitby early enough for these events. As soon as I say the W word then it becomes a family event and none of them can get ready before 11am!!!
Wow! What an original festival! It looks like a lot of fun. It's a shame the parade was cancelled, I'm sure it would have been very interesting. Thanks for showing. Greetings from Spain 😊🇪🇦
Greeting to you in fabulous 🇪🇸 thank you for your comment we were disappointed there was no parade this year glad we caught it in last years steampunk July video and we hope it returns next year! Have a great day 👍
Well hello! You've done another good one! Lots of interesting characters ❤ Shame you missed Mr Metalman. I caught his video earlier and thought to myself 'the GenExers will be next!' 😂 Hope the little drone is doing ok (soon be to be fixed) ❤
Hi Mr & Mrs Jaune hope you are enjoying your weekend! Mr Metalman is a much earlier bird than us it was a shame we missed him as always lovely meeting up with fellow TH-cam friends. We used the insurance and sent it back and they sent a replacement off out on the moors today to have a play x 🫣🤞
Always a winner steam punks Nick (they are just so into it that it infectious to watch ) in a good way 😊👍 Cancelled parade was a shame but I did love the Morris men in their rag coats (they are a boarders troop (very popular at the moment)) Best regards to Jill 👍 Simon 🤠👍
It looked calmer this year or was it too early? 😉😄 You both looked great and did like Jills outfit. Very beautiful creations of all steam punkers. Wish TH-cam could stop copyright strikes on this type of videos. The rules are ridicolous nowadays. At least you both had a great day and could show us others what we missed. Have a wonderful weekend Nick and Jill 🦇 🖤🖤🖤🖤🦇
Hi Sanniz it was a lot quieter this year due to the way it fell in comparison to other events around the country it was Fantasy Forest the week before which is huge and the biggest steampunk one in Lincoln is coming up, think due to costs people choose which to attend! Hope this makes sense! Was a shame re parade apparently the country was on high alert so the police were restricting large movements of people 🤷🏻♀️! The copyright thing is ridiculous and can make editing a pain so we try to assess while filming! Have a lovely weekend lovely lady 🖤🖤🖤xx
Hi, Nick and Jill K7S and I always enjoy this event. Unique and joy for all ages. haha Adults can be so serious to disguise officially hahah What caused cancellation on the parade? Well, it is always next time... Well done, Nick and Jill I liked Jill's outfit...hehe I am glad YT did not curse your prem. OMG, I fell sick after.. So sorry you had such experience staying up late. See you next time
Hi guys do not worry your prem (although it didn’t work) we thoroughly enjoyed it! To be fair we struggle to keep up with the chat it’s so quick! Thank you for your comment! We enjoy these events! glad you do to! have a lovely weekend ❤️
Thanks Cara! it all boiled down to the terrorist attack in Southport! the country was on high alert and didn’t want big groups gathering!…. BS but clearly a safety precaution! Have a lovely weekend xx
i love the whitby steampunk festival!!! thanks for capturing it again. bummed about the parade. what did you teach? i was also a teacher for a minute. give my best to hugo! 😉🛴❤
Hugo says hi Anne! yes I taught on and off from 94 to 2011. enjoyed most of it in the early years but as I grew older just hated it more and more. not just the dislike of people generations younger and more disrespectful but all the extra, additional burdens they put o teaching in general to make it more of an administrative job rather than an educational one. my degree is in business information technology so I was ICT and always dragged in to cover English. teachers are such role models and the current education system has failed them, glad to have left!
Cheers Adzey! Yeah it was cancelled due to the Southport going ons! We were on high alert for terrorist attacks so no big groups congregating 🤷🏻♀️ the world’s gone mad! have a great weekend x
You guys are getting seriously famous in the Steampunk Community! 😅 Shame about the parade (and the blasted copyright music) but some great dances, outfits and twirls on display 🎉
thanks Matt, yeah I felt I spent most of the day lurking just out of ear shot of the Pavillion to capture what interviews I could. Potentially a game changer going forward sadly. hope your having an amazing weekend!
🤣🤣 no but it was in the post back to DJI and a replacement on the way! taking 2.0 (not chosen a name yet but this will come after 🤣) out tomorrow 😬🫣 hope you have had a lovely weekend ❤️
@rachelshonahague5718 you need to vlog these ideas they would make for great entertainment 🤣 we cannot imagine how hard self adhesive wallpaper must be 🤣🤣

sadly we are all on high alert after the Southport stabbing. no mass gathering is permitted for the foreseeable, even though the despicable culprit is British with no ties to terrorist organisations. well at least we have a police state.
it was a bit quieter, I think how it falls between the Fantasy Forest and Steampunk at the Asylum has made it expensively unpopular.
Nice always good seeing Whitby. I still can’t work out the difference between Steampunk and and goths. They all look the same to me 🤷🏻♂️🤣. Love seeing you two exploring this great place. Very enjoyable watch. Have a great weekend. 👍🏻🚶♀️🚶🏻♂️
The styles are definitely merging. Steampunk used to be more brown leather, brass and definitely more Victorian costume and machinery. The Goth scene was always rooted in the music, even then you had the punk side and the Victorian goths.
Andy hits the nail on the head perfectly. I think what confuses a lot of people and certainly a lot of goths that watch and don’t attend the goth festival is that, having known a lot of these attendees for several years now, I know they are goth 365 days a year and yet for the goth festivals they like to dress up which really seems to offend a lot of back bedroom keyboard warrior goths! that being said, shockingly at this event there were more pirates than steampunks! I didn’t film any of them as it just seemed odd to me. who knows what we will get at the next event? have an awesome weekend!
@GENerationXplorers I have a goth friend. He's been a goth since the 80s, definitely the genuine article, and used to organise the Whitby Kustom car show. He never sets foot in Whitby when Goth Weekend is on now. I think it's a bit sad (no puns about goths being miserable intended) that some feel it isn't their event anymore and stay out of town.
@OutandaboutwithAndy yeah it’s a real shame, it’s ironic too as I know what a lot of these attendees look like the rest of the year and they are definitely genuine goths, they use the event as an excuse to dress up. It definitely puts off a lot of other goths!
@@GENerationXplorers as the saying by John Lydgate goes 'You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.'
Looks like a great day out again. Not as busy, I think it's easy to compare it with how busy the WGW gets. Loving Nick's accessorised bucket hat. The 'ghost of Alan Metalman and his fish and chips' as a great edit 🤣
Hi Andy, yes this was the quietest I’ve seen it. It must be the most expensive event for people to attend being situated in the middle of the School Summer holidays in a popular seaside holiday destination resort. they would be better served holding it at the end of June or start of July. it also sits between two of the most popular events in the UK which are attended by everyone, the Fantasy Forest the week earlier and the Lincoln Asylum which is at the end of August and is the biggest steampunk event on the planet. I’ll be attending the Lincoln Asylum again, hopefully we will see everyone at that event! shame we missed Alan at the event, I went later as the parade usually starts to get ready at 5pm and lasts till 6pm and I really had planned on that being the main focus of the video. Sadly a criminal lack of info on the Southport stabbings meant the whole of the UK was on high terror alert and no gatherings of any kind were allowed. still hoping to get you and your fantastic photographic skills at this event. we need more skilled photographers! 👍 have an awesome weekend
@GENerationXplorers Yeah, I'm hoping at some point to get along to another Steampunk event (I did do one which featured on my photography channel, like this one, it was a quiet affair but I got some shots.) The WGW seems always to take place in the worst of British weather. I'd like to get to the Krampus Run. One issue I have is getting to Whitby early enough for these events. As soon as I say the W word then it becomes a family event and none of them can get ready before 11am!!!
Wow! What an original festival! It looks like a lot of fun. It's a shame the parade was cancelled, I'm sure it would have been very interesting. Thanks for showing. Greetings from Spain 😊🇪🇦
Greeting to you in fabulous 🇪🇸 thank you for your comment we were disappointed there was no parade this year glad we caught it in last years steampunk July video and we hope it returns next year! Have a great day 👍
Well hello! You've done another good one! Lots of interesting characters ❤ Shame you missed Mr Metalman. I caught his video earlier and thought to myself 'the GenExers will be next!' 😂 Hope the little drone is doing ok (soon be to be fixed) ❤
Hi Mr & Mrs Jaune hope you are enjoying your weekend! Mr Metalman is a much earlier bird than us it was a shame we missed him as always lovely meeting up with fellow TH-cam friends. We used the insurance and sent it back and they sent a replacement off out on the moors today to have a play x 🫣🤞
Always a winner steam punks Nick (they are just so into it that it infectious to watch ) in a good way 😊👍
Cancelled parade was a shame but I did love the Morris men in their rag coats (they are a boarders troop (very popular at the moment))
Best regards to Jill 👍
Simon 🤠👍
thank you Simon, looking forward to seeing more of your Germany trip. hope your having an amazing weekend!
❤❤❤
👍❤️
It looked calmer this year or was it too early? 😉😄
You both looked great and did like Jills outfit.
Very beautiful creations of all steam punkers.
Wish TH-cam could stop copyright strikes on this type of videos. The rules are ridicolous nowadays.
At least you both had a great day and could show us others what we missed.
Have a wonderful weekend Nick and Jill 🦇 🖤🖤🖤🖤🦇
Hi Sanniz it was a lot quieter this year due to the way it fell in comparison to other events around the country it was Fantasy Forest the week before which is huge and the biggest steampunk one in Lincoln is coming up, think due to costs people choose which to attend! Hope this makes sense! Was a shame re parade apparently the country was on high alert so the police were restricting large movements of people 🤷🏻♀️! The copyright thing is ridiculous and can make editing a pain so we try to assess while filming! Have a lovely weekend lovely lady 🖤🖤🖤xx
Hi, Nick and Jill
K7S and I always enjoy this event.
Unique and joy for all ages.
haha Adults can be so serious to disguise officially hahah
What caused cancellation on the parade?
Well, it is always next time...
Well done, Nick and Jill
I liked Jill's outfit...hehe
I am glad YT did not curse your prem.
OMG, I fell sick after.. So sorry you had such experience staying up late.
See you next time
Hi guys do not worry your prem (although it didn’t work) we thoroughly enjoyed it! To be fair we struggle to keep up with the chat it’s so quick! Thank you for your comment! We enjoy these events! glad you do to! have a lovely weekend ❤️
I love these events, really must try and get there for one, one day. Shame the parade was cancelled. Do you find out why?
Great video
Thanks Cara! it all boiled down to the terrorist attack in Southport! the country was on high alert and didn’t want big groups gathering!…. BS but clearly a safety precaution! Have a lovely weekend xx
good evening nick and my fair maiden jill. jill you are the fairest maiden in the land. any magic mirror would agree. have a wonderful weekend mates
Mirror Mirror on the wall….. I love you think I am the fairest maiden of all! Kris you are the sweetest! have a great weekend ❤️
😁👍 looking forward to it
Thank you Yasmin 🙏
i love the whitby steampunk festival!!! thanks for capturing it again. bummed about the parade. what did you teach? i was also a teacher for a minute. give my best to hugo! 😉🛴❤
Hugo says hi Anne! yes I taught on and off from 94 to 2011. enjoyed most of it in the early years but as I grew older just hated it more and more. not just the dislike of people generations younger and more disrespectful but all the extra, additional burdens they put o teaching in general to make it more of an administrative job rather than an educational one. my degree is in business information technology so I was ICT and always dragged in to cover English. teachers are such role models and the current education system has failed them, glad to have left!
Some good outfits again. Shame it was cancelled 😒 Still some good ones about Thanks for sharing with us Generation Xplorers Generation Xperiences
Cheers Adzey! Yeah it was cancelled due to the Southport going ons! We were on high alert for terrorist attacks so no big groups congregating 🤷🏻♀️ the world’s gone mad! have a great weekend x

You guys are getting seriously famous in the Steampunk Community! 😅 Shame about the parade (and the blasted copyright music) but some great dances, outfits and twirls on display 🎉
thanks Matt, yeah I felt I spent most of the day lurking just out of ear shot of the Pavillion to capture what interviews I could. Potentially a game changer going forward sadly. hope your having an amazing weekend!
