Interesting history 😉👌🏻
Magical is the word!
Wow!
Strange that it is one of the famous house in the world but so simple.
It s great idea. Why democratic leaders should live in palace or monuments ?
It's great because the so called "politicians" live down with the people
@@bretagnejean2410 Why should royalty live in palaces?
U know they hold privet secrets in there..
Number 10 is mostly offices. The part where the PM lives is actually both small and plain. Palatial it is not.
It’s huge inside ! And three stories high with a big garden google it! These sort of houses go for about 2 million or more in London ! I’ve been in many that are similar they are normally converted into into flats and have many residents , years ago they had servants in the upper floor ! 🏴🌹
Tbf the pm often lives in number 11 since it’s bigger. Despit Sunak having larger family he took the larger one
It's funny that they say that the "residence" doesn't have enough space to govern. I mean, Hugh Grant was able to disco dance through the whole thing in Love Actually - seemed pretty roomy then. ;)
How much did you pay for number 10 Ted?....... Cowboy's Ted feckin Cowboys!!
It's just a terrace house up a street 😂
The whole street is the house
@@user-mh7qx8sk8y How do you work that out? A streets a street and a house is a house
I wonder how much rot there is now with bojo in residence
❤😅lizy was diplomate in london town
Someone else's home now.
shouldn't Tony Robinson be presenting this?
Because he has a more cunning plan.
"Man is Most powerful homosapiens of OUR planet but no intelligence, although they almost my teacher. I am frightened FOR the darkness future of OUR planet. "
Remember FOR YOU All "I don’t never tale a lie except slip of tongues it’s may be 3 or 4 Word in a year but no significant or harmful. "
What is going on in England? When did R turn into W? I'm hearing this more and more.
I can imagine it now: "Speak the speech, I pway you, as I taught it to you, twippingwy on the tongue."
all over the world there are people who can't pronounce their 'R's, not just in Britain. I've lived here my whole life and practically everyone can pronounce their R's
This one guy probably has a minor speech impediment that might be complicated by his native accent. Johnathan Ross famously has an R to W speech impediment, but is able to speak perfect English in every other regard.
I don't think it's going to catch on quite as you insinuate - like the Spanish lisp.
It’s called a lisp !
