I was lucky enough to be the first person in Shrewsbury to see the completed film. I remember interviewing Martin and “Tiny Tim” outside Prestfelde School and George C Scott in the Prince Rupert. 4:54
When this COVID lark is over, come to the UK. Ludlow is a good place to visit which is not far about 30 miles away and they are both in Shropshire. Also, have a walk down the Shropshire Union Canal they are quite lovely in the Summer. Nearby there is a town where I live called Oswestry and that is not far from Shrewsbury, it is a border market town between England and Wales. They have lovely markets there and our park Cae Glass Park is splendid during the Summer Season. Plenty of Pubs in Shropshire and the local chippy down the road. As a native Brit going to these places as someone said like Stone Henge is an absolute waste of time though it is owned by the English Heritage. The National Trust in my opinion is better with Chirk and Powis Castle... I have also been to the States two years ago, I went to see the White House, never went into it (I don't think you guys will let us near it as we burned it down in the American War of Independence. LOL) It is very rare you see US Citizen in Salop, it would be nice to have some tourists tho. I'm getting a bit fed up with these people from the South coming in their Range Rovers saying (is this grass safe to drive on? Even though they are in a car that can do absolutely anything) Anyway, I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year for 2021, and see you in 2030 after the pandemic. LOL
A Christmas Carol was Dickens's first public reading - on Tuesday, 27th December 1853, in Birmingham Town Hall. On an earlier visit to the city, Dickens had offered to give his first public reading to help raise funds for the Birmingham and Midland Institute (BMI).
This is by far the best version of A Christmas Carol.
I remember this movie, I really liked the conversation between Marley and Scrooge. Nice tour sir.

Really enjoyed this video. I was in Shrewsbury last Feb, and it’s amazing how many of these locations I unknowingly walked through.
miguel3k thank you, and I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
Awsome!! I live in Cleveland ohio an want so bad to go there
More tourists should go to Shrewsbury. There is a lot more to see there. They all go to Stonehenge which is rubbish as you cannot go anywhere near it.
@@mariegriffiths right on thank you so much

Thank you very much for uploading this!!!
Monica Ale not a problem, it was part of a university assignment which I filmed and edited
@@tommcloughlin1 it is well done, for all those Dickens' fans and particularly this film version for me one of the best.

It's called Shrewsbury not shrowsbury
You can say it either way, but Shrowsbury is more historically accurate from what I have heard...
It's Shrowsbury ;-)
Nobody in Shrewsbury calls the town Shrowsbury
@@refres1000 Shrowsbury. ;-)
