Only you, dear Hannah, can make a fun, informative and cheeky video about, basically, an old flea market. I cannot fathom how long it took to edit, but you did a brilliant job. Your asides about criminal charges for the use of a loo, needing a vending machine for some Ibuprofen, doing the remortgage for some food and needing lines in your tablet because you need a bit more control in your life were beyond funny. And, no, you are not too old for your treasured lemon cardigan. You are eternally young looking and eternally young at heart. Then, with that great piano playing, you gave one more great laugh by thanking the viewer for watching and calling the viewer a “cheesey naan melt.” You don’t just make my day, Hannah, you make my week. Thank you!
seconded, beautiful comment ❤
Cheesy naan melt stage name just killed me 🤣😂 Hanna please consider writing a standup bit 😋 alternatively go visit Richmond. ❤️
At first, I agreed that a pound for a pee was pretty steep, but then I thought that it might be worth it, if it meant that there was an attendant who made sure that the loo was kept clean and odor-free. I'd be willing to pay the price, if that was the case. 🤷🏼♀️
Thanks so much for watching! This is super kind of you x
@@HannahRicketts I from Libya I hope to visit London
My husband and I had our first date in Camden Town . I was 19 and nanny. He was 21 and in the Royal Navy.
That was September 1st 1990
Next year will be our pearl wedding anniversary thats 30 years married.
Love your shows
Thank you xx
And a great weekend to you, Hannah -- and all fans of this wonderful channel!❤
Its a shame that the stalls with people designing and making their own clothes has been replaced with Chinese tat
Thank you! You too!
It's Friday. Work is finished. It's time to relax with Hannah.
Oh Hannah your videos are so funny you just say whatever you think and it's so refreshing, and I get to see London without having to go in person!❣️
My daughter works in Camden. I met her from work one day and the crowds were insane but if you go down the tow path there’s a little path that leads to a church and there’s a little shack in the church yard that sells coffee. It’s so lovely and we could actually sit at the table and hear ourselves talk! Then if you carry on across the churchyard it takes you across the road to Regent’s Park.
Love the lemon cardi. Great vlog. You showed loads and your commentary makes it all come alive!! So good.✨✨
Have a lovely weekend, Hannah!🌯🌞
The lemon curdi
Hannah, your commentary is so delightful no matter where you are. Thanks for the new Camden Market tour! 😊
It’s my favourite day of the week! Hannah is taking us out and about with some good laughs along the way. ❤
I used to go Camden market quite regularly during the 80s and 90s when it was really grungy and gothy. It was always reinventing itself with all sorts of groovy shops. I remember there was a juice bar in some sort of labyrinth of a "cave" made from polystyrene foam and it was lit with all manner of neon lights! Now it looks very cleaned up with tons more food stalls - back in the day there's was only a veggie burger van! For all its expensiveness and "cleaned-upness" now I still think it's definitely worth a visit! Just have your wits (and purse) about you! Thanks Hannah, I'm glad you gave it a big up too!
Hannah’s almost at 300k yay!
Hi Hannah, many thanks in showing us Camden Market in detail. We thank you even more for showing us vlogs through January! Have a nice weekend!❤️
Never, too old for a black, lemon motif cardigan. You looked fabulous in it!✨
I moved to London for uni in 1982 and I loved Camden Market. The second hand clothing was so good. My kids loved it in the late 90s and 2000s. The clubs and music scene were great too. I haven’t been since it stopped being ramshackle and started being corporate. Times change.
Thanks for another great video , interesting to see the market as it is now.
I wouldn't rush back.
Yep.... when Stella McCartney moved in it was over. And then they built that brown multi storey with the restaurants.... still worth a visit though?
I loved Camden Market in the 80's, remember going at winter and there were hot chestnuts being sold and the clothing was great. Went a few years ago and didn't recognise it anymore, so sad
I used to go to Camden Market between 1980 and 1983 as a teen/early 20s and the only two things I recognise are Camden Tube Station and the Camden Lock bridge. Good memories though, especially coupled with the music scene at The Roundhouse/Electric Ballroom.
And Dingwalls!
Hi thank you for reminding me about the roundhouse /electric ballroom. did one of those have a eating area(restaurant) upstairs - or is that somewhere else, (they were very hazy days for me back in the late 80's 90's🤣)
I moved to Islington in 1982 and many, many weekends were spent walking along the Canal to Camden Market...Camden as a whole was one of our favourite places during the 80's and 90's, The Black Cap, Camden Palace and The Electric Ballroom, such brilliant memories. We were Goths and shopped for most of our clothes from the Market, Swanky Modes and sometimes down Carnaby Street. I bought an original 60's leather bike jacket once (that I wore over black tulle skirted ball gowns of course..lol) and a bloke with a stall, painted Bauhaus on the back for me...wish I knew what happened to it. Always got our DM's there too, had two pairs, one blue and one red and always wore odd pairs. Biggest thing I think is better now is the amount of photo's people take, we obviously didn't have mobile phones so it was photo booths or a snap and shoot camera, had dozens of film reels that never got developed, again now lost to time sadly.
Thanks for the tour Hannah, I'm 64 now and have stage four cancer and live on the Isle of Wight, so it's unlikely I'll ever go back, so your vids are really lovely to see. It does seem to have changed, (much more food), but over 40 years has passed after all, I think it still has enough of an individualised style to mainly stand up to the 'old days' though.
Thanks for sharing, sending you best wishes xx
😊
Camden Market in the late 70s and 80s was wonderful
@ Thank you sweetheart. x
@@lynnhamps7052 So very sorry xxxxx
Sending you gentle hugs and love
Cheesy Naan Melts 😂 Love your outro(s) Hannah, and the lemon cardigan. My jaw literally dropped when I saw it. I would have bought one too 😂❤🍋
I used to visit Camden back in the 90s - I was visiting my 70/80s punk-era.
Thanks!
Thanks for the support!!
Where’s my Camden from 70´80´90´ ish..!!! Lost his vibe to me..! Great vid as usual Hannah..! Enjoy ur week end.! ❤️🇬🇧💐
Same as petticoat and carnaby street, but I do still like Camden
I'm a cardiologist here in Manhattan, my day is very busy so far...I quick check my phone, Hannah posted a new vid...I'm choking down lunch as I watch....Have a great day Hannah...cheers!
Thanks to Hannah I’ve now been to Camden Market. Thanks for a unique tour, lots of laughs and your observations. This channel is unmissable to me following subscribing relatively recently. Hannah, you are a natural presenter and viewers appreciate the effort you put in. 🙌🏼
I loved Camden markets when I lived in London in the late 90's. My favourite thing to do on a Sunday was wander around the markets especially cyber dog and punkyfish then grab a falafel. Ahh such great memories 😊
Hi Hannah, Love watching your videos. Discovered you about 9 months ago, more or less three months after my mother passed away suddenly. Strangely you have helped me through my bereavement. Watching your videos around London gives me some sort of comfort, as we had always said that one day my mother would take me to the capital and show me around. Always been a dream, but never came true. Please keep up the good work, its like you are a gift from both my parents up in Heaven.
So sorry to hear this.. sending you best wishes. Thanks for joining along, see you next week 🙂
Hi Hanmah - brilliant video!
I'm sure you've tried this with the strobing lights - but just double checking that you're shooting in either 25 or 50 fps - rather than 30 or 60.
Also make sure the anti flicker is set to 50Hz not 60Hz...
Also there are hidden nice(r) free toilets in the New food court over the road on the first floor!
Hope this helps!
Sadly tried it all! Also you can’t change some of the settings on this camera
@@HannahRicketts Of course you have!
Thanks for the kind reply, and sorry to hear this... (nuts, was hoping it was Pocket 3 settings - system settings - anti flicker 50Hz...)
But the loos in Hawley Wharf are our go-to, plus there's a secret free open roof garden if you go up the stairs (which is closed at the moment) - used to work there
That was fun. Even on the other side of the world, I have heard about the Camden Market & thank you Hannah for taking me there. It was bigger than I expected
& loads of variety in the stuff for sale. I can't get over how much food is available ! Every kind of cuisine by the look of it.
Great Vlog for Friday! Great info for an upcoming travel to London!
Yay Friday with Hannah Yay, hugs
Hannah! Love the lemon cardigan on you!🍋❤
Definitely on my “avoid like the plague” list for my future trip to London but I enjoyed the video. You’re never too old for a 🍋 sweater!
You really do make my Fridays extra special. Thank you so much for taking time to make these videos. My daughter now follows you. Down to earth and you say things how they are ! A rare thing on TH-cam these days. Keeps it up Hannah you are great ! Can you come to Norwich please 🙏
God bless her
Wow, thank you! That’s so kind of you!
Always so interesting, I have been to Camden market on visiting home...! It wasn't my favourite to be honest. Fun walk about however and love some of the unique creativity. And a BIG NO to no prices displayed, I am by no means shy, but I simply feel if the shop or store holder cant be bothered pricing, then I cant be bothered buying! Of course its an attempt to draw you in and then pressure you to buy, never works well. Love market food, but again I don't like being ripped off. Thanks again Hannah.
The walk from Warwick Avenue to Camden is a great walk from west London to north west London. Worked in Camden in the 90s and the market definitely is an upgrade.
I love doing that walk too!
Never too old for the lemon cardi. I’m 40 and I brought a cherry knitted cardi from Next the other day. Lives too short to wear boring clothes! ;) Great video, so much too see in Camden Market, but yes I’d visit when it’s a quieter time too.
Hi Hannah. I remember Camden the way you remember it with all the punk and eclectic artful mix of stuff. I have to say I do like seeing all the other independent sellers now selling the nice boutique like fashion, cute bags, home decor, etc. and all the food stalls….yum! Thanks for taking us along as always. 😊
Hannah, I've got a strong feeling that Lemon cardigan will become a treasured item, and you will cry when it finally dies.
In the meantime, 💛 it! ✨
Loved at 14.45 playing THE GO BETWEENS A little band from Brisbane Australia
Wow Hannah! There was so much to see in this video. I love that you speak your mind, it's so entertaining and it's the best part ❤
You absolutely made my day with the Moomin section! When I was 14 I had a Finnish penpal who introduced me to Moomins and I love them. Such great memories.
Hi Hannah - Love the channel - discovered it at Christmas and have now delved back through a load of your videos. Almost makes me miss London sometimes...almost. One of my favourite places back in the mid 90's was Greenwich on a Sunday. Not sure if you have covered it, but have not seen one from there so far. Hopefully it is still great all these years later. The indoor market, the pubs and restaurants, the architecture and the wonderful park with the observatory at the top. Worth a look if you are running out of places to visit.
I love markets, especially like this. We don’t really have these types of markets in Sydney. Loved hearing ‘The Streets of Your Town’ by the Go-Betweens in the background. Great Aussie band. There are Paddy’s Markets in Haymarket in Sydney but it’s just one area.
Another good one, Han! 👍🏻🎅👍🏻
Hannah your vlogs are so infectious,witty and your waffling commentary is wonderful.Have a great weekend Hannah.❤
Thank you Hannah for bringing us along on your relaxed stroll through Camden Market. That colourful cardigan is cute on you! I totally get the vibe. I'm so glad the old architecture has been preserved. There's a place somewhat similar to Camden Market in my town(Vancouver). On a much smaller scale, of course. It's called Gastown. Gastown too has been gradually evolving over the years as property prices rise. Not putting prices on stock is a sure fire way of reducing your customer base by 90%. At least. Negative signage is a no no! As always it's wonderful seeing you Hannah. Take care.
Thanks! Cheered me up. 🎉
Thanks for the support!!
As someone from a neighbour country of yours I really appreciate your humour and commentry on local and unique things for the neighborhoods that I mighy not have learned about on my own as well as showcasing British made things this is what I come for when I visit, chains are all over and guess what will happen to the little independent stores if we do not go and shop there. Love to support locals.🎉
Happy Friday, Hannah! Great vlog today. Loved the stroll around Camden Market. The kati roll looked delicious. Have an amazing weekend. See you next Friday!
Fabulous Friday video Hannah 🫶 and, I hope you have a great weekend!!!
Another amazing tour Hannah. I think i went to the markets when i was in the UK in 2003. Found them interesting. Love the old buildings. We have a few old markets in Australia. The queen Victoria markets in Melbourne were my old stomping ground. Love the padlock bridge it's so lovely to see people keeping up with traditions. At least it wasn't raining for you. Love the cardigans they were rather cute. Have a great weekend and great week. Catch you next Saturday. ❤❤❤
Hannah, your commentary and content is fabulous, thank you for posting.
Worth waiting for all week. Love it. I work at our farm 24/7 and have no time away from cooking and dealing with our farm responsibilities. 78 goats and the list goes on. Thank you.
Thank you, Hannah, for another fun video. I wish we had something like that in NYC. They put up some version of the flea market in the streets when the weather is warmer, but nothing like that. Many Blessings..😊❤
Chelsea has kind of a similar vibe; I can’t remember the name of it but I remember the indoor market there and it was quite similar :)
Your sense of style is so unique and inspiring
Loved visiting Camden market with you Hannah. It’s a couple of years since I’ve visited, so nice to have a good look again. By the way the cardigan looked great and you aren’t too old for it. 😀
Love the lemon cardi!! Food looked yum!! Thanks for showing us Camden Market.💕💕💕💕✨
Hi Hannah, my wife and I visited the Camden Market a couple of years ago because we wanted to take a narrow boat trip to The market. Found it bustling and eclectic and all we did there was have a tea and people watched. Have a good weekend. 👍❤️❤️
Hannah my wife and I are in Canada we watch every single one of your videos as soon as they come out.I am originally from the UK my wife’s Canadian but we miss England daily and you bring us home and give us that warm gooey fix of home lol
Thanks for the fun and interesting content and honesty love the honesty and waffling lol
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ from Canada
The sweetest Queen 👸 💗 I've been watching some of your older videos recently and you're absolutely timeless ✨️ 💛 💖
As usual, you've made my day again Hannah! I loved walking through that famous market with you. Looking forward to where you'll take us next!
I enjoyed a visit to the Camden Market area on my last trip to London. I really like checking out different parts of the city because they are so different. Thank you for taking me back!
Good to see you having fun! Lara in particular. "Too old", she says!
I love the history you share about the areas you visit. As soon as I saw that lemon cardi I wanted it. It looked wonderful on you! Thank you for this super fun outing!
Wandering around markets is great fun. Thank you Hannah.
Hannah, a great video. I never made it to Camden market in all the time I lived in London. Thanks for the fun and comments. ❤ 🇨🇦
Thanks for Filming this Vlog Hannah I really enjoyed a mooch around Camden with you .
I will visit there but when it get a tad warmer in the spring probably . I didn’t realize there were so many shops/ stalls to look at as it is a bit all over the place and higity pigity .
Hi Hannah, another Friday Hannah vlog time. Did love the lemon wedge cardi, did suit you, one for a friends night out at the pub. I think I would love looking around this market all the old buildings, and Borough market when easy to move around. It seemed very relaxed place to experience a few hours of London market life. Really enjoyed the tour, more please. Steve
Thank you, Hannah as always 🥂😘
Another great video! Discovered this channel Christmas '24. I'm working my way back through all the videos now. Love how much work goes into them, so appreciated 🎉😊
It's another great Friday afternoon with Hannah again looking at the local Camden Market and wherever else you go to have a royally nice weekend
and Thank You Lady Hannah.☕👍🇬🇧
A place I've never been to, but I noticed how it had changed since your last trip there. I so enjoy your vlogs. Thank you so much, Hannah
There was some cute stores to shop at.
No, that lemon cardigan is fun, and your not too old for it, its just a bit of whimsy and fun.
All those food markets! Yum
Great video as always Hanna! I did the same for my visit to Camden market, early on a Sunday morning before the crowds came in. I was on mission as my nephew had requested One Piece cards, which I hadn’t even heard of but the Bandai store has them. Great food and atmosphere. London is my favourite city and I try to visit at least once a year, 7 solo trips later I finally made it there.
I’m loving all your videos, shopping, tourist stuff, just walking around, I get my weekly dose of London.
I remember when I was just out of school I went to England and fell in love with Camden. It was a little gritty, but cool area. Now there way too many people, and I’m from Los Angeles! It is nice to see Camden again non the less. Thanks!
I don’t think I get as excited for anyone else’s “New video from…” notification 😊❤️! I lived in the UK for ten years and there’s so much I miss about it - but I feel like I’m going for a wander with a mate like I used to when I watch your videos 🥰! Thank you!
Yay! Thank you!
It's been a long week Hannah, waiting for your next interesting instalment. Brilliant!.
Always nice coming home to start the weekend with a Hannah video! Truly enjoy hanging out with you Hannah. Your videos are always interesting and fun!
Hi Hannah. Great vlog loved having a look around the market and loved the lemon cardigan 😊 would be great if you could do a car boot vlog so we can see how prices differ from other parts of the UK ❤
Luv your around london vidoes ! Great details and luv you say the prices which is a great help ! ❤️
😆🤣😆Hannah, I almost choked on my chips & salsa! What time is it? Time for you to subscribe!😆😆😆😆🤣😆🤣 I didn't expect that joke. I love the vlog! You make like being there. I would love to live on the UK🥰
This was actually fun Hannah and kept my full attention. Just a fun time when you are tired of the same old high end shops! Thank you😊
I think the best reason to visit Camden Market is for the industrial history and the architecture. Even if the markets themselves aren’t that great, there’s definitely a lot of very interesting and beautiful old factories & properties to see within the area.
Another great video Hannah! Keep up the great work! 🙌 ❤️
Btw, with regarding to the lights flickering in the videos, depending on the device you record videos on, there’s 2 things you could try.
1) Change the fps from 60 to 50
2) Change the shutter speed to 1/100 instead of 1/120
I hope this helps for your future videos?! 👍
The frame rate doesn’t help.. and this camera you can’t change the shutter speed sadly!!
@@HannahRicketts That's a shame. I was hoping that by changing the frame rate, the camera would automatically alter the shutter speed accordingly to the 180 degree shutter rule. I was thinking of picking up an Osmo Pocket 3 in the future, but without proper manual controls, it's a little off putting.
One thing you could try, I don't know if you've considered filming with your iPhone 15 Pro again, but there's a free application called "Blackmagic Camera". In the app, you've got full manual controls of literally everything including fps, shutter speed, ISO and even White Balance. I use the app on my iPhone 15 Pro Max & it's a great application to use. I would never go back to using the iPhone's camera app for video recordings.
I'm sorry my advise didn't work for the DJI camera. I hope this will though. I'd be happy to assist further if you need it Hannah!

@@HannahRicketts I’m sorry that this didn’t help you out. I was hoping that with your camera, by altering the fps, it would automatically adjust the shutter speed accordingly to the 180 degree shutter rule.

I might have a couple of other ideas, but I want to let you know that I’d be more than happy to assist if you ever need help Hannah. 👍
Its same all over everything so expensive
Hi Hannah, I visited Camden Market in the 80s, and there were lots of Indy designers and artists. It was a great place to visit. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
DJI OSMO 3 sttings for UK should be PAL not NTSC hence the light flicker. To access PAL settings on a DJI Osmo 3 (likely referring to the Osmo Pocket 3), navigate to the video settings within the app, where you can usually find a "PAL/NTSC" option, and select "PAL" to ensure your footage is outputted in the European standard frame rate (typically 25fps) for compatibility with PAL regions; remember to check your specific device's settings menu for exact location of this option.
Happy 1st February, Hannah! Camden was the centre of my working and living, and as dodgy as the area could be, it’s such an exciting and vibrant place! Love it! Still miss it!
Hi Hannah! Of course you're not too old for that lemon cardigan!!! Please, go get it!! Thanks for your videos. They're always a pleasure to watch. ❤
Great video. My second publisher used to have a place nearby. BTW, nice to see the old TV-am Eggs are still on the old studio roof! x
Very Lovely.👍
Hi Hannah.
Thank you for sharing Hannah , marvellous as always .
we were just in London visiting some of the places you recommended. Would have been cool to have you narrate while we were walking around! j/k. that would be weird actually.
I love the lemon cardi for you! Thank you for taking us along, this was witty and wonderful.
London is such a charming Goliath of a city. It is truly the World's capital and has been for 1000 years or so. So wanky, yet so smart. Thank you for displaying it in a realistic fashion! I love your content, and I thank you for all the effort you devote to your channel. You make it look easy, when it is anything but.
It's full of immigrants
Fantastic vlog! I'm an expat living in Texas and I would wish I could be in London again. Miss it so much that's why I love your videos. You are absolutely not too old for the lemon cardi, I'm quite certain that I'm older than you and I would definitely wear it. Thanks for another Fab vlog ❤😊🇬🇧
Yes to car boot sale vlogs!
Oh Hannah! This video is wonderful! Without a doubt, it is one of your very best! Even if the items are expensive, the actual market itself, the buildings, so beautiful! I am so GLAD and RELIEVED that it has been largely preserved! Wonderful place. I am hoping to get to Europe later this year and I will definitely visit it. Amazing video and thank you for creating it! Have a brilliant week. Thank you!!!!!
Yay it is Hannah and the end of January❤🖐🇺🇸
I love buying clothes in Camden Market, theyre just such a different style and i love that, very funky. Great video Hannah 👍 x
The Oldi graphic made me laugh!
Love your posts…always enjoyable…yes to a video of a boot sale….I live in Seattle so Estate sales are very different here. Even on a bad day you bring the laughs with your fun escapades around London. Thank you for being you 😊
Hi Hannah😊
Hi Hanna, I watch your videos every week and love them!
I recently visited Camden after a long time and really enjoyed it. From my experience, it’s best not to buy a T-shirt from the first stall you see-chances are, you’ll find it cheaper elsewhere. It’s a good idea to check prices at a few different shops first. The more expensive stalls are usually open to negotiation, and many offer discounts if you buy two items.
I was also pleasantly surprised by the great customer service there!
