@@pj1043 best town in the uk,full of students,criminals and tourists,half the population of Kensington and Chelsea moved there after the grenfell Tower tragedy.
Come in for a 3 year later comment that the sewer tour is one of the biggest attractions now. It's quite fascinating. On a sad note, there is a fee to get on the pier, just a quid and only in the busiest months but it' still worth it, in my view. From a 20-year B&H resident, still the best place to live in the UK for people of an open mind.
I lived in Brighton from 1975 to 1979 while I was studying in Sussex. I have also been around all over England, Wales and Scotland. However I think the best place is Brighton. The people are very loving and care for you the atmosphere is great it is a very lively town .. I had my best 5 years of life I still cherish. When ever I visit I make sure to visit Brighton. All the friends are gone but I still enjoy the stroll cherishing memories of my younger days . Brighton is like my second home I love it
I lived in Brighton for a couple of years back in 1997. I've got so many good memories from that lovely place. A little bit of my heard it'll always be there. Thanks for bringing me back to one of best places in the UK. Cheers!
We noticed lots of sleeping rough folk when we were there last week, what amazed me was every rough sleeper we saw has a tent, and lots of duvets, and pillows …..still wouldn’t want to swap places , but just saying it was surprising to see the “posh” rough sleepers xxx
A couple of years ago, having lived a bit up north, but mostly down south, my family decided to go to Brighton for a few days. I wanted to get a feel, as I like to explore, and give my family the impression that I know where we’re going. Your video was fantastic. My kids complained. They didn’t like the walking. But I’ve got to say that I had a huge head start because of this video. Thank you. 🎉❤
Hello from Peru! Great memories came back. I was blessed to be there back in 2001 and spent the best time of my life! Looking forward to visting it again with my family.
I've lived here for 21 years and love it. It's a Shame we have an ineffective city council and a lot of tourists who can't behave but it's still one of the best places to live in the UK
@@great-garden-watchyeah go for it, your love it as a tourist. I'm born and bred here and it's not like it was back in the day,70s and 80s.but mind you nowhere is the same as it was anymore. 👍🇬🇧
I live there, and loved seeing it through your eyes! Its such a wonderful cosmopolitan city, next time you visit, try the North Laines, very Bohemian with loads of street art, and amazing shops
A Brilliant Review. As you say; Brighton is London on Sea. It has everything that London has, without the hassle and pollution. We re-discovered it pre Covid Lockdown, and visited several times on day trips and weekend stays. However, there was never enough time to experience all that Brighton offers so we are booking a week's holiday this summer. Brighton has preserved it's unique history such as the Lanes, the Pavillion, its architecture, Pier and Funfair, whilst also modernising without compromising or replacing its history. There are traditional pubs and modern bars that appeal to all. Restaurants and Cafés offer excellent menu choices from every part of the world. Instead of shelling out tens of thousands of pounds on Regeneration Officers and consultants, those in charge of trying to regenerate our dead and dying coastal towns should instead hop on a coach with you, visit Brighton and copy what they see.
I grew up in Brighton and still live nearby. The city has a lot of flaws but there's some wonderful parts to it that you captured so well. It's a shame you couldn't visit the Sealife Centre, it's beautiful in there. Used to have my birthday parties in there as a child. Also I remember going on the ghost train as a child and being terrified. Looking at it here I'm wondering how on earth it scared me so much!
I have been to Brighton many times, and have both good memories (some have 'become' sad ones) but love it for its great laid back vibe , and bohemian attitude (that a lot of other places lack). After returning to the UK after living for 3 years in Spain, it is that, which has made me so aware of all the great towns, villages and places that we have in this wonderful country.
I’m moving to Brighton in three weeks for uni, having only visited once. I’ve been watching all these types of videos I could find because I’m so excited. I really love the place and I wish I could just go there right now!! Great video 😊
As a Brightonian who left some time ago, I really hate the whole London-by-sea moniker. Back in the 90s and early 2000s it was such a fantastic place with its own identity and culture. I'm so glad I grew up there but it's not the town it once was. It's literally become a caricature of itself, with the things that made it what it was often being priced out. It's now a business designed to rinse people, mainly from London.
@bill8791 just got back from there and got a cod burger, which turned out to be three fish fingers and a cocktail to go with it that probably only had one shot of rum in it £25. Really nice place though.
I love Hastings. My sister lives there and I visit whenever I can. Some great pubs to try are The Seadog, The FILO, Whistle Trago and The Albion. So many quirky book stores and antique stores to visit. And the climate is a lot nicer than my native Ireland! 😊
We had a holiday in Brighton and Hove back in 1977. I was only 5 at the time and not like the beach, but had a great time, enjoying the fair on the pier, the dolphin show and walking around Brighton following this way to the circus signs. There was a circus in Brighton when we were on Holiday but we never found it the signs just keep taking us round in circles. Since then I visit Brighton when I'm on holiday down the coast in Eastbourne, always try to fit my holiday when Surrey cricket team are at home at the County cricket ground in Hove. Brings back memories and want to get down sometime with my college mate. This was my great uncle and auntie's favourite resort when the lived in London in the late 1950's/early 60's before they move to Hull.
I was last in Brighton in 78/79 just before I left for the Land of Oz. Its been Tarted up Somewhat..! Really enjoyed the Tour..! Thx for your Efforts..!! Cheers kim in Oz😎
Loved Brighton, my sister lived there when I was a kid. We both live in Australia now. I’ll def visit when I holiday in 2024. Great memories of family hols with my sisters n mum n dad 💕💕💕💕💕💕
Brighton 👍🦊🐼✨️ the sea front looks like Hastings,Nice to see Brighton too, i'm thinking in 2022 New thinks appears... tanks to remind me such souvenir and memories have a good day Tim
The last time I went Brighton ,that skyline was not there, but use to go most summer day trip to Brighton with family because the station to go to catch a train and connection was easiest ,east Croydon or Norwood junction. about a hour to Brighton , love the exit coming out of Brighton all the shops , and smell of the sea and amusement arcades, and fish and chips and Brighton rocks and post cards. I miss that.
Been on holidays in Brighton many times already and I plan on many more and I feel you've captured it beautifully. Brighton really caught my heart with its atmosphere. I love not only Brighton, but also what you can reach around, if you'd love to get some pure nature without the sea, you'll have the Devil's Dyke, or if you want to have some cliffs, it's just an hour away.
Never been to Brighton, but wow! what an interesting place, loving the artist area, a great place for my Netherlands family and myself to visit when we are able, thanks Tim.
@@Tommy-rr6vc: You could plan a trip to the AmEx Stadium. Sometimes seafronts are not psychologically habitable places to dig for depth of profoundness.
My mum was from Brighton, Hove actually. Spent a few holidays here visiting my grandparents in Brunswick Street East. Their old place is now a juice bar I believe. The kiddies paddling pool used to be much bigger. I loved all the grand old buildings on the beach front. Last time I was there was in 1969 before we emigrated.
I love Brighton. When I had an annual train season ticket into London free trips to Brighton at the weekend were included and sometimes I would go down every weekend. I still take a coach day trip there every year.
First did the sewer tours on school visit 1969 and 3-4 times since with different people. They are very interesting and, back in the day, you exited through a large man hole on the pavement/sidewalk on the Grand Parade near Edward Street and the Royal Pavilion.
I was at teacher training college in Eastbourne and affiliated to Brighton Uni in my last grad year. Now retired, I am going on a nostalgic trip when the children go back to school in September. Looking forward to visiting the old and new sites and reliving some great memories 🎉
Thanks for showing us around Brighton. I've never been, but a lady who I clean for (who us nearly 101 years old) is from Brighton and she's told me afew stories about it through the years. Her husband was a Artist after WW2 and they decided to move up here to Malton, N.Yorks in the 70's.
I have never visited Brighton; even though I lived on the south coast as a boy. After your tour, it is definitely on my list of places to visit. Thank you.
Worked underneath this pier from 89 to 94 i think it was, used to be cast steel replaced with 50ft bridge girders which were originally black, the squidgy board means it lacks a box section stool below it, the main reason the centre of the waltzer fell through the decking onto the steel below, had to rebuild the deck around it, fun times.
Think it was about 1972 when I left Brighton for the last time. Now I´m 68 and have never been back there. I had heard from friends that it was not the same and it´s to be expected right. Yet I used to love Brighton calmness back then. As a child I could ride down through Dyke Road and the Clock Tower to fish on the West Pier or buy worms on Palace Pier. Palace Pier had very different entertainment, you could have your future read for a penny in a Theater arcade box. They have several of them with animated puppets that would come to life. They only had a Mat slide that went round a tower and it scared me as it hanged over the edge of the side, not very safe! I can see that many trees have gone and the people are too many. I recognized The Grand and the Aquarium. Those boat shaped breakers were not there though. I have been frightened to visit, due to lost memories and change. So thank you for the film. Yet Brighton is not a City! Unless they have built a Cathedral since 1955 Not shore I would call that sculpture art though?!
Beautiful. I'm living in Suffolk, but I'm really an East Sussex girl. Apparently, a mate told me ( who lives in Hastings, I know this is Brighton, but anyhoe) that the council has ome up with seagull proof rubbish bags lol. I lived in Brighton in 2002 on Kemp Town High Street. It's lovely in Brighton, hoping to move back
East Sussex is my husband Peter Nelson's home county. We are now in Melbourne Australia and I would love to take him back for a cheap and cheerful visit sometime. Maybe in a year or two. Brighton looks lovely and the beautiful old buildings speak to me in a big way. Hi to any of his relatives there.
I visited Brighton for a few days. The whole town is full of hills that always seem to be going up. The seafront lacks the arcades and shops that Southend has and the houses are tiny.
Hi Tim, the drain in the side of the groin is a storm drain, they used to do trips up it. I think it's a H+S issue now. Didn't see you touch on the volks railway to the east of the pier or the marina. I had family build that, family that worked on the volks, family that worked in the old market up London road. That's right I'm from Brighton born and bred. The pubs and clubs set into the seaside walk are some of the links the old prince regent used to use from the pavilion, there are disused tunnels all over Brighton for home to get around. Years ago I worked in the coop department store in London road (now student accommodation like 80% of Brighton) and the store room was some of the tunnels. Just some added info for you
Great trip around Brighton - I suppose it’s my closest seaside town so I visit quite often - it’s the sort of place I’m glad I can visit but glad I don’t live there! In Brunswick square, there’s a house that’s being restored back to its original regency appearance internally!
I remember when both piers were open and when you came out of Brighton train station every shop looking down to the sea had bucket and spades out side all gone now and not for the better
I’ve just started watching yr channels, u got a good sense of humour and sense of adventure,last night I watched all yr vids on worst hotels, tonight I’m watching all the seaside resorts, great variety,thanks heaps(I feel very lazy couch potato),while u do all the walking and talking🤣,.thank u.
Thank you Tim for doing this video of Brighton, I live down the road in Worthing, Brighton is so diverse , love it . The North Lanes are amazing ! Lots of different shops and stalls , always buzzing . Did the eye 360 on a very clear day and again amazing , although I don't do heights so a friend had to take photo's for me LOL
Great video again Tim. Superb quality picture and camera work.The big pipe by the pier is where the sewage tours come out, but thankfully the tarot man has warned them in advance.
I love Brighton. You have done a great job highlighting all the nice things to see and do there Tim. We spent a lovely afternoon on Brighton Pier watching the starling murmuration. Will never forget it. It is one of the highlights of our (numerous) trips from Australia to Great Britain.
Love Brighton. Yes it has its flaws with a lot of homeless people etc but it has real character and keeps on keeping on, unlike a lot of our seaside towns. The Lanes are great and the pier is as well. A lot of great pubs and decent restaurants.
Great Vid Tim we used to go to Brighton quite a lot before we bought our caravan in Great Yarmouth it’s a nice place but I think Great Yarmouth is much calmer to walk round and it’s a nicer seafront look forward to the double lives this weekend mate
I’m cracking up at your comparison of Venice Beach to Brighton. I’ve never been to Brighton, but as a Southern Californian, I have been to Venice Beach many, many times. I can tell you, the two don’t even come close. Brighton is lovely, Venice Beach, not so much, lol. Thank you for another wonderful video. ❤
I clicked on this thinking it was Brighton Beach and the boardwalk area along Coney Island in South Brooklyn, New York...it kinda looks like Brighton Beach and the boardwalk on Coney only the New York version is more Eastern European than British nowadays. Great place for authentic Eastern European food, they even have a couple decent fish and chips places.
I loved your video, very informative. I spent my holidays there when I was a lot younger and continued my visits there many many times. I live in Bali now but hopefully one day I shall return to Brighton,Your video made my day!
Just back from Brighton last week went all the places you went to in this vlog , we were lucky to visit the sea life building inside is lovely , was sunny 28 degrees and a lot busier , good to see lots of people in the water when we were there xxx
I remember going a few years ago and sitting at the bars on the beach while the students sat a few yards away listening to the music for free withe their cans of cider and disposable bbqs
I'd been living in Brighton for just half a year in 1997 . Actually there is big different as I am, but someplace is nothing changed. Still lovely town. A japanese writing in US

I don't know maybe the night life and lot's of different people
Bipolar queen I don't know I've been to Brighton night life it ain't that great tbf lol
Brighton has more pollution than London as it has most of the old buses which are from 2006 whilst London buses are from 2009 onwards

some of the appeal tarnished by the local addiction to graffiti and to be blunt some of the worst post war architecture anywhere.love the vibe though😐

Great trip around Brighton - I suppose it’s my closest seaside town so I visit quite often - it’s the sort of place I’m glad I can visit but glad I don’t live there!
In Brunswick square, there’s a house that’s being restored back to its original regency appearance internally!
I remember when both piers were open and when you came out of Brighton train station every shop looking down to the sea had bucket and spades out side all gone now and not for the better
Dad always had jellied eels
thanks for watching Martin
yuck
Yep. Queens Road is no longer a pleasant place.
I was born and bred in Brighton, lived all over the world but always come back to Brighton
Love to see the city I live in and born in getting more recognised ☺️
:-)
You dont go out ya hermit 🤣🤣
We were here last Saturday and went in cafe Nero and the fish and chip place on the beach with the big umbrellas

Nice to be able to picture the setting for the Roy Grace novels

I've been thinking about going to Brighton for university and this video was so helpful - thank you!
You're so welcome!
i also recommend tying the greek euros near h&m and mall bit ! lots of good food there lol. the hippie/crytals shops r rlly nice too
Great video again Tim. Superb quality picture and camera work.The big pipe by the pier is where the sewage tours come out, but thankfully the tarot man has warned them in advance.
LOL Thanks for the info!
I went to Brighton to see Gregory Porter and his band perform. Incredible. It was the night Lfc won the Carabao Cup
Been to Brighton a few times,for me it’s much better than Portsmouth where I live...
I love brighton
I love Brighton. You have done a great job highlighting all the nice things to see and do there Tim. We spent a lovely afternoon on Brighton Pier watching the starling murmuration. Will never forget it. It is one of the highlights of our (numerous) trips from Australia to Great Britain.
Glad you enjoyed it thanks so much for watching Raylee , and remember to subscribe too ;-)
That murmuration over the pier is truly something to behold!
Love Brighton. Yes it has its flaws with a lot of homeless people etc but it has real character and keeps on keeping on, unlike a lot of our seaside towns. The Lanes are great and the pier is as well. A lot of great pubs and decent restaurants.
Another fantastic video of Brighton have not been there for years!.💋
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for taking us on a journey around Brighton loved it! 👍
Thanks for watching
I was born in Chichester, so brighton was my sea side town
Great Vid Tim we used to go to Brighton quite a lot before we bought our caravan in Great Yarmouth it’s a nice place but I think Great Yarmouth is much calmer to walk round and it’s a nicer seafront look forward to the double lives this weekend mate
Thanks Ross
I’m cracking up at your comparison of Venice Beach to Brighton. I’ve never been to Brighton, but as a Southern Californian, I have been to Venice Beach many, many times. I can tell you, the two don’t even come close. Brighton is lovely, Venice Beach, not so much, lol. Thank you for another wonderful video. ❤
Brilliant video nice walk about never seen so menny cafes eat outs there right when they say Brighton the no 1 place to go
thanks reg
I clicked on this thinking it was Brighton Beach and the boardwalk area along Coney Island in South Brooklyn, New York...it kinda looks like Brighton Beach and the boardwalk on Coney only the New York version is more Eastern European than British nowadays. Great place for authentic Eastern European food, they even have a couple decent fish and chips places.
lol
i have been their 7 or 8 times but dint see some hidden places. Royal Family house. etcc.. thanks for like this videos
you're welcome
Excellent capture of the Brighton look and feel. Live nearby this is good!
Thanks Richard

I remember going a few years ago and sitting at the bars on the beach while the students sat a few yards away listening to the music for free withe their cans of cider and disposable bbqs
2nd-time watching it Tim. It's just a beautiful beach. So much there.,

Yes, that's the truth, Tim. I have noticed a couple of things I didn't see the first time.👍

Brighton is nice and beautiful
I have been there in 1994. I love Brighton Beach
I'd been living in Brighton for just half a year in 1997 . Actually there is big different as I am, but someplace is nothing changed. Still lovely town.
