NOOOOOOO....... You can't end the episode like that, We all need to know did Vicki see the man and win the bet?????
Also what sort of reaction did you get?
It couldn't have been good. They should have filmed it. Seeing the miserable old cuss get angry when proven wrong would have made a great All the Stations Extra.
A real cliffhanger, next video they'll insert adds ;)
The "Dove" in Dove Holes comes from Old Celtic "dwfr", meaning "water". Thus, Water Holes. Dover also comes from "dwfr".
"New Mills - a bit of Derbyshire consumed by Greater Manchester" - how very precious dare you! We're very firmly in Derbyshire!
Carriage of No Return.
That must be a shame for you.
- A Nottinghamshire Resident
Ooohhhh George Jordan - that's almost fighting talk!
Historically (before 1974), New Mills was on the boundary between Derbyshire and Cheshire (the River Goyt), so _all_ of New Mills wasn't in Derbyshire before that date. It's true that it's never been part of Greater Manchester, though.
Hello Tevildo - that's indeed true, though only the civil parish boundary was changed in 1974, not the ecclesiastical parish boundary - so people who live over the river are still considered to be Cheshireites for the purposes of getting married at the Parish Church, such are the joys of straddling a border! It also means that trains in New Mills are that bit more expensive when going in to Manchester - and why I sometimes drive to Marple to catch the train from there.
I was on that train you caught from Ardwick. In all the years I've been on it, you were the first ever to board in the direction of Manchester!
hey Ian! :-)
Vicki's reaction at 7:50 - priceless! That's what the views of the Peak District does to you! :-)
Must say they've could have filmed more at Edale - the start of the Pennine Way and mention the Kinder Trespass which led to the movement of establishing National Parks in the UK, and the Peak District being the first (and best) one :-)
twfy861 Looks a bit foggy to me, they probably couldn't see a lot. Shame
Am I on a replacement rail bus
Nope,just a pacer!
a pacer is a rail bus
Just to say that greater Manchester ends after Middlewood, at which point you go to Cheshire through Disley, and get to Derbyshire just before New Mills station.
What was the reaction of the grumpy old bar steward to lovely Vikki's revelation to dispel his 18 years of ignorance ??
Doves are a type of pigeon for the dove holes station! Family columberformes, I just love all your videos
No frills, handy for the hills, that's the way you spell New Mills.
No, there's no railway in Britain, been here #allmylife.
There might be a little minature railway somewhere. Toy trains.
Alan, either you've just lost a fight with a fire engine, or it's raining it's arse off out there" - Chris Morris when Alan Partridge is at Marple
So much to' enjoy. Ardwick; countless times I've been past on the train, never seen anyone get on. And that line to Buxton; did it back in the 1980's with a chum, on a day of such deep snow that people were going up from Manchester to Buxton to ski. Train rammed with skiers. St Anne's Wells, wherever they occur, are usually for helping people with eye problems. Sigh. ADORABLE! Onwards!
Thanks for interviewing me. Im not that hairy now.
I;m curious, was that a Doctor Who t-shirt Jonathon is wearing...?
RuthFL yes it was
wow, its the scarf that caught my eye....love it! Wish i could see the rest of the picture

New Mills is not in Greater Manchester, you can easily tell because stations in Greater Manchester have the GMPTE logo on the station sign. :)
You walked right past the Swizzel's factory without mentioning it! 😵
They also missed the Uncle Joe's Mint Balls factory a few videos back when they were in Wigan.....
chaim ustraykh Don't forget they have to cut over an hour's worth of footage down to 10-15minutes. As an experienced editor myself, I don't envy the two/three guys who have to produce these every couple of days!
They walked right past on a facebook live, totally unmentioned!
😆
8:15 good to see a homage to The League of Gentlemen, and Tubbs and Edward :D
What's all this shouting? We'll have no trouble here...
Locals do not fill up waterbottles as the water out the tap in buxton comes from the spring , in fact the water in buxton water bottles travels 2 miles out side of town in a pipe to the bottling plant
Marple has been my local station as well as rose hill for 14 years and i have never noticed the posters or train bird box. I did know about Agatha's connection to Marple though...
I'm loving this series so much... shame I missed them going through my local station
What happens with the £10? I WANNA KNOW
Nearly forgot to mention the 'local' reference to 'The League of Gentlemen' in Hadfield, well done.
Why the Pride & Prejudice reference at the beginning? (0:05)
a) Because you filmed it 1 day after the 200yr anniversary of Jane Austen's death (0:04).
b) Because the line into Disley (2:53) passes through Lyme Park where Colin Firth filmed P&P.
c) The 5th Duke of Devonshire (4:38) lived at Chatsworth, reputedly the model for Pemberley.
d) Some other reason...?
Philip Benton could be all of the above. V is an Austen fan (like myself) 😊
Vicki, I like your "9¾" earrings
Aidan Christensen yay! (since episode 27. Or 28...)
13:24 - because there's nothing more irritating that buying a homemade jam only to discover the pot is dishonest
I don't want to sound like a humourless git if you're joking. But an honest/honesty pot is for paying in when there's nobody there. So you take a pot of jam, and put a leave a bit of money to pay for it. Obviously nobody can force you to pay, but if you do pay then it's very honest of you.
The contrast between Manchester Piccadilly and Ardwick..
you didn't tell us what happened with the £10 bet..! how did it go with the grumpy security guard...?
4'16" "People are just walking past, why aren't they just filling up their water bottles?"
It's because they live there.
Oh btw it's not spring water, it's natural mineral water, and there are laws protecting natural mineral water, whereas spring water can just come out of the tap. Check the label when you buy a bottle, NMW has to have a chemical analysis of the composition.
The water coming out of the well is hydrothermal and has been percolating through the local schism in the rocks for 5000 years.
It comes out at a constant temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, regardless of the time of year.
The owners of Buxton Mineral Water, the Coca-Cola company, would love to shut down that well, but they aren't allowed to, so anyone can fill as many bottles as they like from there for free.
Beautiful video, love the channel.
Hadfield was the birthplace of Arthur Lowe (Captain Mainwaring). When Hadfield Cricket Club got a new pavillion in the 70s, not only did he open it, the cast of Dad's Army played the cricket club!
Wrong. That is Hayfield....
Very cool
Many thanks for mention of good old Davenport! Northern Railway think we are a tiny halt that can have its service cut even though we get a quarter of a million passengers a year. More at davenportstation.org.uk
John Hulme When I come through - btw i am from Hazel Grove Davenport can get busy . Why are they cutting the service . Hazel grove we get trains almost every 15-30 mins in the peak . Get woodsmoor and davenport back on track
John Hulme the only people who use davenport go to aquinas college - they make up most of those passengers 😂
I... I waved to Mike.
So did I :)
gilles111 me too 😂
And me... And the the Doctor at the hospital
Speaking to John, the guard/conductor was fascinating. I'm learning loads of really useless but fascinating trivia watching these vids. Cheers, Vicky and Geoff.
Aw if you'd got out at Grindleford you'd have been at the Western entrance to the Totley Tunnel
If you pause at 8:22 you can see where the route to Sheffield via the Woodhead tunnel used to continue onwards
Am I related to Alexi Sayle? :)
Like the Class 142 bird box. Hope the birds are impressed - #ALLTHEBIRDBOXES. Another great programme.
6:10 well technically, doves and pigeons are the same species, doves just carry a rare gene that makes them white so... yes you did see doves :D
“Were they doves?” “No, they were pigeons.”
Obnoxious fact: Pigeons are also called Rock Doves. I feel we’d hold them in higher regard if that were their common name.
How did the security guard react to the photo, lol..
hi guy's... im a new subscriber and i'm totally enjoying all your video's.. you were close to my home today, you got to Belle View, i live 2 stops further down the line at Ryder Brow......
Ah my home village of Hadfield, my parents home in Marple (Bridge) and my brothers home near Rose Hill. #allthefamilystations.
Does anyone play along and look up the locations on Google Maps, pausing the video from time to time? The trail near New Mills Central is quite evident in Satellite view, even though the relief is suppressed.
You can't say you've been to Edale without having a pint in the nags head!
Amazing all posts are 2 years ago just really enjoyable
Does Vicki live to reach the next episode? Watch this space🤔😀🚂🎥
still not writing down train numbers ;-;
haha brilliant you went to Hadfield, Hop you went to Hilary Briss's butchers for some special stuff ;)
halcyondaystunes go Johnny go go go go! Canadian rules!
Hello Dave.........
St Annes Well was made free as a requirement of the 1772 Enclosure Act.
You can't end it there???? Greatest cliffhanger in history, How did the security guard react lol
I'm waving at Mike 🤓
OOOOOOOOH, Semaphore Signals.
You speak of “pacers” frequently. What are pacers?
They are (or were) outdated and crappy diesel multiple units found in the neglected parts of the rail network. A bus pretending to be a train.
‘Ow ‘ard was my wick...
Apparently Leamington Spa water is not only warm but salty. I didn’t try any as I saw barely more than the station itself (though I did leave and a few days later re-enter the station).
"You're not local are you ? This is a local town for local people" (!)
Dove and pigeon is both the same groupe of birds, the diffrence is that Dove is used in the Germanic languages and Pigeon is the French word for it. They're all called -----duva in Swedish :)
And pulu in Finnish.
Pigeons are a type of dove
I know it’s been said but how could you miss a spot on Middlewood? A former junction station literally in the middle of a wood. The nearest road is 800m away and yet it still gets a train every two hours. Such a shame.
Hi, Only one 9 3/4 earring Vicki, but on the other ear. Great that you keep testing our observation skills. Steve in comment below said 9 3/4 earrings!
fab video loved it .
i was brought up on the station house on the station platform. My mum lived there for 40 years, rented of british rail i spent many happy days playing trains with all the station signal footplate staff .i still think the station is the quantest station in derbyshire.xxxxx
About running trains on the monsal trail. When peak rail was in buxton in the eightys thay tried to open the line to matlock from buxton but br and derbyshire council wouldnt let them .
thay got driven off the sight because buxton water wanted the grounds so we got lorries instead of trains (so so wrong grrr)
just emagine catching a steam train to matlock from buxton i still hope it happens.
11:08 Is that your house?
Vicki is gorgeous I will say that!!!
Is nobody going to point out that pigeons ARE doves? Rock Doves, specifically.
Well, "dove" is a fairly broad category, but I would suspect that most people in the UK use it to refer to the collared dove (_Streptopelia decaocto_) or the turtle dove (_S. turtur_) rather than the pigeon (_Columba livia_). Geoff may want to clarify. :)
All The Doves - all of them!
In Italian the same word covers both. La Colomba.
Were they really charging £3.39 for a bottle of water?!
Your first train "Is it a Pacer or a Sprinter?". It's both :-)
i am surprised couldnt get buxton water in manchester
That looked like the meal deal price so drink+sandwich+snack. If you look closely you can see smaller price tags on the shelf against the individual items.
Love John's Doctor Who shirt :)
Nicholas Payne everyone does
No you didn't mention my station (Levenshulme) D:
Why has Vicki changed her earrings in the middle of the last two videos?
Tigger returns at the start! Yay!
I call Edale the Dale of E.
Dang, you've already been to my nearest!
You're ruining the surprise for my holiday ☹️
Again, more views of the Green and Pleasant Land.
Are you doing the line to Newcastle from Carlisle tomorrow? Saturday the 29th
Susan Beddison I think they may have done it today...it was on their instagram stories xx
Yea they have also when the map updated today they missed Dunston
how the hell did i not know you guys went to our stations?
❣ from marple
Too bad the bird box is shaped like a pacer!!
"How much of your Buxton water do you have left?"
"drank it all"
"see you tomorrow"
I thought he was referring to the water...
All the Pacers! What ageing trains they are
I’m a famous fan of you guys I live in Hitchin
I'm a bit surprised to see the nonsensical claim for inspiring the Railway Children reference. Edith Nesbit spent her life in SE London and NW Kent and it is generally agreed she based her railway knowledge on Chelsfield station near where she lived!
Yes Edale..... been there many times for the start of the Pennine Way and Kinder Scout. There is also a long tunnel just after Edale (Sheffield bound), that on the old DMU's, myself I often love to stick my head out of, and get a face full of Diesel fumes..... yes I am not right in the head :D
New Mills, pleased to see you took the river route between the two stations, which also passes near the Swizzles and Matlow sweet factory, well known for confections like Double Dip etc.
..Hi Geoff & Vicky...you are both such a real lovely guy, and a lovely lass...love you both :), and as you said there Geoff, ..railway Tracks most deffinatly run their way through some georgeous places...All your video's are amazing...I am enjoying every one of them...I have SUBSCRIBED to you b.t.w....all the best to both of you... :)
Did Vicki convince the bloke that Ardwick station does exist? Or of course there's always a Street View image:
goo.gl/maps/jt3P84J1RaA2
8:51 Oh, God, "THATS NO TRAIN BIRDBOX, ITS A PACER BIRDBOX!!!!!! PACERS ARE TAKING OVER THE WORLD!!!!!!!!"
Is the old Cotton Mill, at the seven minute point, where they filmed the tragic beginning of Gaskell's "North and South"? Oh 2005 or so?
7:30 new Mills is in Derbyshire
I loved seeing you discover The Torrs Gorge on your walk between the two New Mills stations. There's a brief shot of the Millennium Walkway - a fantastic piece of engineering, partly cantilevered out from the immense Marple Line retaining wall. I love it. And I love it even more, getting a lump in my throat, every time I look at my photo at www.flickr.com/photos/brigster/30608588773/in/album-72157646619167688/ . You can scroll left and right for other snaps in that location. They're all in my photo odyssey, The Mersey from sea to source (not completed yet) Anyone interested in the whole point photo odyssey should scroll all the way to the bottom of the photo/page and click on the thumbnail for the whole album.
Yay, New Mills! Been there with me parents countless times growing up. Been to Buxton a small handful of times too.
Oh, hey, Marple, too. Yeah, been round there a good number of times.
Been to Edale ONCE...would like to go there again.
I grew up in New Mills. I know these places well but have unhappy memories of them so perhaps for some it's not so awesome. New Mills is the real Royston Vasey never mind Hadfield!!
Vicki, I love that you've been wearing one each of the HP earrings (and switched sides too!).... very clever 🤓👍 xo ccfg
Vicki what's Geoff doing while you explore? Getting your lunch or drinking more tea?
rbmeatfan100 I wonder...
rbmeatfan100 yes to lunch etc... but also geocaching sometimes 😃
You guys need to walk the monsal trail , the ex buxton to derby line , now that's some views 6 tunnels and 2 breathtaking viaducts totaly accessible as a trail from bakewell to buxton
Think Ardwick needs a little TLC. Though for an urban station the grass must be fairly unusual.
3 years later, I just waved at Mike.
Finally found your Rose Hill stop 👍
Vicki bits are best.
Love the 9 3/4 earrings Vicki 🤣
Steve Woolski yay!
Next time you will have to catch the Stockport to Stalybridge train through Denton (only 1 train a week)
Your censorship failed. The bottle is from Evian.
When are you guys coming up the east coast via wallyford????
another Geoff hehehe
This episode has got some stunning views and amazing footage! Thanks for great interviews as well
If you are interested in Agatha Christie go to Greenway (just outside of Dartmouth, Devon) it was her holiday home which you can visit
I've been several times. Even if you're not a fan, it's such a lovely house and gardens to visit in the summer.
+DerekHartley exactly especially the boat house
TP Football Analysis Yes to all of the above... fabulous place!
I love Dartmouth and Greenway - go on holiday there a lot
