I don't think that people realise how much goes into these videos. It's not just the filming but also the research and the editing so I am glad that you only do one per week so that you maintain the great quality. I look forward to seeing them every week.

Hannah, once more you did an excellent job showing this beautiful tour around Notting Hill. And what an wonderful place to visit and live! It seems so peaceful, and those colourful buildings and their architectures are amazing! Your comments about the history of the area followed by those photos were a great idea of yours! This video edition and the image quality are perfect! Thanks again! Have a wonderful Friday and weekend! 😀 🎬🎥 💂🇬🇧

Nice vlog and excellent narration. I really like how you included the history. Part of my profession is gathering historical uses of properties prior to redevelopment and it's enjoyable to see what these locations were once like. I actually saw the movie a few weeks back and this provided more perspective. Keep up the good work!

Lovely to see all these streets again: I used to live at Notting Hill Gate, and worked in an office under the Westway, near Portobello Green. Shopping and street food every lunchtime - it was the best! Tips from your other videos were very useful when I came back for a visit recently - especially the Crown to Couture exhibition at Kensington Palace 🤩 Thank you! 👏

Yes, a lot of the architecture is similar to Brighton. Even some street names are the same. There are a lot of Regency buildings in Brighton and Hove, which are of the same era you mentioned. Interesting to see where they filmed that movie scene in the nineties.

Great video Hannah, thank you 😁 I loved the mix of seeing what it is like now, mixed in with the history of the area, and the old photos too, great idea 👍 I went and had a look at house prices after watching this - yikes 😮 There was a run down building consisting of a garage on the ground floor, with a one bedroom flat above, and it was for sale at £2 million! 😯

@MakeUpWitch 11 ай бұрын

Hannah, you're getting better and better. You're so natural on camera. I've been to that area twice within a year and I prefered my Spring visit with no stalls and much less tourists. I found the things in the shops too pricey for what they are but managed to buy some really nice Arts and Crafts style tea cups at Alice's. The shop looks like something out of Alice in Wonderland and is ran by lovely elderly people. I also bought a box of a very good tea at Bird & Blend Tea Co. On the other hand I couldn't find a place to have a coffee. The only one in sight was Hermanos.

As a runner myself I would say that you are doing very well to do as much as you do. Try a parkrun. Not a race but you will always find somebody else who is your speed and will motivate you to improve. A lot of people are intimidated and think that they are for "proper" runners. They are not.

Thx Hannah for taking us around Notting Hill, which is still a fun movie to watch again & again! The area is very nice & looks quite different from the interesting historical view that you shared with us! It is hard to believe that the famous Blue Door is still standing in the same spot, along with so many other "movie spots & locations". I hope your weather has remained nice & mostly rain free this week! Just be glad you are not in the Dallas, TX area right now where yesterday we broke a heat record set in 1951, as it hit 109 degrees!!! Hannah have a nice weekend, & I look forward to your next week's vlog on Friday!

@billybudd5854 11 ай бұрын

I used to live very near Notting Hill around 50 years ago and indeed it was mostly a dump. The houses were nice but very dirty and rundown. I'm glad they've retained most of those old properties, and that they have been smartened up out of all recognition. The reason of course is that, along with much of the rest of London, Notting Hill has been gentrified.

@pjbailey72 11 ай бұрын

Hi Hannah great vlog. Notting Hill has a very dark back story. It was originally a black neighbourhood, it was a deprived neighbourhood that the British housed those Afro Caribbeans that arrived during the wind rush years in 1948. They were constantly targeted and lived in fear and as you mentioned it took a turn and the community fought back and the carnival was a testament to the power of unity, heritage and the triumph of resilience. It later became gentrified and the black community were forced.

@ciar67 10 ай бұрын

Definitely the neighbourhood was still Carribbean in the early nineties but nowadays only a few people remain here only those who can afford the insane rent prices

Hi Hannah, I thoroughly enjoyed your vlog - This one is incredibly relaxing. Your narrative approach to delivering information is truly captivating. I'm genuinely grateful for the comfort your content provides. By the way, I couldn't help but notice the Maserati at 00:01:25 🚙 - it happens to be my all-time favorite car. And oh, "Notting Hill movie" holds a special place in my heart as one of my cherished movies 🎦 The works of both Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant never cease to amaze me. Wishing you a fabulous Friday and a fantastic weekend ahead!😃💐🇬🇧❤🇺🇸💐
