These kind of people arent fashionable and easily mocked in modern Britain but they are a product of their circumstances and will be gone forever in a few generations. last of a dying era. I find them likeable and interesting
@@cornstar1253 they had a show called life is toff which showed them basically whoring their property out to make ends meet. Besides the giant crumbling castle I don’t think they’re as wealthy as they might initially seem.
These places can cause 10svof thousands a year just in upkeep and maintenence costs. Most repairscandvrestirationscwoukd be using skilled and scarce craftspeople and materials. Nobody on a normal income could afford it. Which us why u see so many of these places renovated and restored and turned into wedding venues, tourist attractions, coffee rooms etc. There's simply no other choice as the place has to be made pay forvitselfvinnthe long run. The buildings themselves require alnist constant upkeep and repair also.
Beth Bartlett she means that the narrator, trying to sound informed has completely bastardised the name of arguably our most famous and legendary king. She also badly mispronounced the place name.
What very good looking children.And if one could scrape some mould of the external walls and do a tad of painting and mend a few busted windows...a cracking place!!
Good looking? I think they’re a but odd looking. Francis has definitely got some mong in him, has to be a little bit retarded. Probably the inbreeding.
The sight of Mrs. Fulford is worth the visit to the estate. What an adorable and well manered lady. It took me 20 full seconds to fall in love with her.
The house will eventually collapse if nothing is done to save it left to Thier parents and the oldest child will inherit a shell of the former house at this rate it's already fallen prey to the eliments
It's unfair why can't all four kids inherit this house and land would at least give them all an incentive to look after it and work together it's unfair the other kids are meant to feel less important I would never leave everything to one child and leave all the other kids with nothing such a bad practice
Because there's 4 kids, thats 450 acres each, and when each of those had 4 kids it would be 100 acres left and suddenly the family land is all gone. No point leaving a house to all 4 kids when there's no intention to sell it, it's all about keeping it in the family.
there's this wonderful thing called planning permission and in that area, Dartmoor National Park, there is very little chance of getting planning permission for a development. In national parks, most people struggle to get permission for a garden shed, never mind a whole new housing estate. The land is already farmed, most likely to tenants, it is pointless to sell it. A few acres would net you 30 grand with current prices. Selling off large swathes of it would also defeat the object.
the whole point is to never sell your land. once its sold u can pretty much never buy it back and the whole point is to get more. never worth selling unless you can sell some for development and buy a lot more with it
Very easy to criticise this family but they are clearly overexaggerating this. Who blames them, from their first excentric expose Fulford went on to do loads of shows, he will have made a decent amount of cash which will no doubt go into the estate. He has put on a show, willingly made himself look a bit of an arse to preserve his families legacy .
Ever since Lord Francis Fulford moved into the estate, the sheep have never been seen on public however local reports at the county pub indicate that they walk sideways and show visible signs of discomfort.
I apologize for the error, but I find it quite funny that of the facts I presented the one you corrected me on was in regards to his proper place within peerage and not animal husbandry! As far as I can figure, he has no official title within the peerage system. Correct? Thank you, JC
Interestingly, at 0:32 the reference to the eldest son anticipating his role as heir leads me to conclude that Mister Francis - not having a title - has no customary obligation to the eldest son with regard to bequeathing the estate. I do not know the details of the Fulford estate, but the documentary implies a peerage styled estate tenure - "the future Lord of this manor ...", however, am I correct in thinking that there is no such requirement of passing it on to the eldest male?
Thank you for your timely response! I think it is interesting that to an American audience the documentary overlooks the voluntary aspect of this, which is no different than a farmer in Wyoming willing the entirety of his land to the eldest son. Kind regards, Jim Cameron
Thank you genuinely for your informative reply Chanctonbury63. I became an early fan of Downton Abby, which sparked my interest in the subject matter. If I find something of intrugue I will post here. Kind regards, Jim Cameron
They inherit nothing.In aristocratic families the whole lot goes to the eldest son.House,land,possessions,money,everything goes to him.The other kids will inherit nothing upon their parent's deaths.Nothing.
No money, it's fine when you have valuable land and assets that bring in an income to support the estate (Chatsworth house) but if it's purely tenant farmers then there is little money. It isn't their fault.
@@bloochoob lmao yeah cause that’s all it would take. tell me you’ve never lived in an old property and listed property without telling me you’ve never lived in an old property
@@GeorgejamesB01 I’m living in one right now, and I funded most of the repairs myself. Not letting the place get into that fking state of disrepair in the first place. You can see they’ve made not even one small effort on any of it. There’s six of them, SIX adults who could work and fund some of it, and it looks like not one of them works. I know people exactly like them as I worked in Chelsea and Belgravia and had to put up with these pompous entitled lazy cnuts for about twenty years.
@@GeorgejamesB01 you say that like everyone does actually live in listed properties and anyone who doesn’t, is ignorant to their upkeep. That trendy over used quip of ‘tell me you blah blah without telling me you blah blah’ doesn’t hit the way you want it to.

Dinosaurs
These people are wealthy beyond reason. It will take more than a few generations.
It’s easy to be like-able when you when you have everything one could want. Start taking things away and see what they become.
@@cornstar1253 they had a show called life is toff which showed them basically whoring their property out to make ends meet. Besides the giant crumbling castle I don’t think they’re as wealthy as they might initially seem.
They are not rich at all..no one works and the estate costs a fortune every year. Useless snobs.
It's such ashame that considering this house is so old and has so much history that it hasn't been taken care of and left to rot like this

How fortunate are these people to inherited such a beautiful property and history. This family is really interesting.
a case study in inbreeding
Love the Lab.
he has a great walk. He walks like he is very reassured in life.
Devonshire? Lion-Hearted? Do Americans want us to hate them?
PsychosisFire
Could you provide a reference?
Beth Bartlett she means that the narrator, trying to sound informed has completely bastardised the name of arguably our most famous and legendary king. She also badly mispronounced the place name.
Devonshire is a perfectly acceptable form of the name Devon and is often used in England, for example the Duke of Devonshire.
@Yin2017 No 🤨🇺🇸 you talk as if we’re enemies.
What very good looking children.And if one could scrape some mould of the external walls and do a tad of painting and mend a few busted windows...a cracking place!!

Great family, love the swearing and if you don't like it you can Foxtrot Oscar.
The one thing about swearing, is it's honest. Better an honest person that swears, than a false one that doesn't.
The sight of Mrs. Fulford is worth the visit to the estate. What an adorable and well manered lady. It took me 20 full seconds to fall in love with her.
😍That Matilda is soooo beautiful!😍
This Arthur Fulford was in BigBrother uk
Edmund is his father's absolute double
I think Francis Fulford is brilliant, with a great sense of humour. His posh honesty is what makes him so funny.
I love this bloody man
Arthur is insufferable. Total sociopathic brat.
Could I have subtitles for the narrator please ? What's fraaaaaaaansssssis ?
Love that dishwasher
What a perfectly frightful family!
how can you not love a fulford
Now Arthur's in Big Brother 😁
"Im Francis Fulford, ris is my house and ris is my land. I can't pronounce my 'th's' and im a daft old twit"
Arthur is quite good looking
He looks like a clobhead
Lol lionhearted
They really are thickos. Amusing though.

What planet is the girl from!
His wife's name is Kishanda . . . . . does she have sisters named Shaquanda, Shaneequa, LaTaeyshaa, Tyreesha, LaKeesha?
It's unfair why can't all four kids inherit this house and land would at least give them all an incentive to look after it and work together it's unfair the other kids are meant to feel less important I would never leave everything to one child and leave all the other kids with nothing such a bad practice

Clearly a major problem with this family and they're enjoying every moment of attention.
What is the song at the end?
3,000 acres. You could sell literally a couple of acres to some builders/ farmers and make millions
never sell he land cultivate i run he house into a school, farm the land, rent out the land, never ever sell the land
there's this wonderful thing called planning permission and in that area, Dartmoor National Park, there is very little chance of getting planning permission for a development. In national parks, most people struggle to get permission for a garden shed, never mind a whole new housing estate.

One golden rule never sell your land.Francis has kept that essential rule for centuries, his family have done the same.
the whole point is to never sell your land. once its sold u can pretty much never buy it back and the whole point is to get more. never worth selling unless you can sell some for development and buy a lot more with it

Love them

About the only correct thing he said

He's not Welsh so your joke is dead...
Devonshire? lol, that'll be Devon then. Look at a map ffs...
I'm a fan of Francis
“Hard working” family 😂😂😂😂
right off the bat its devon not fucking devonshire its not middle earth
Devonshire is perfectly acceptable. We see this with the Duke of Devonshire
Oh. I'll take the dog.
haha. that video is basically his dating profile.
Rich Americans, apply within.
The other three kids get "nothing." How do you define nothing?
0 is the mathematical definition
They inherit nothing.In aristocratic families the whole lot goes to the eldest son.House,land,possessions,money,everything goes to him.The other kids will inherit nothing upon their parent's deaths.Nothing.
NOT A LOT!!
In my mind, why don‘t you just taught your kids to help each other?
Hmm yes, most stately. Yes...
Lol Devonshire 😂
Why the subtitles? What’s the point of translating English into English?
Their accent could be hard to understand for some
Kishanda seems very rude
She is very rude
Arthur is insufferable.
Compared to other stately homes that have been loved and cared for this one is in tatters
No money, it's fine when you have valuable land and assets that bring in an income to support the estate (Chatsworth house) but if it's purely tenant farmers then there is little money. It isn't their fault.
Between six people, they should have enough paid work to fund some cement for the walls and get some paint.

Lol British banter lads
Arthur to win big brother 2017
Its a SPOOF!!!!
edmond *eddy* just won £85,000 in Channel 4 : Rise and fall
No money for dental work.
Much more younger , they can't even speak English ! The eldest son has to find a woman with a fortune !
He’ll have to produce a heir. He doesn’t play on that team.
What a terrible family!
how
Care to answer?
Ticks and parasites
I ❤them
what a sad family
