*Completed in 1856, Big Ben was designed by architects Charles Barry and Augustus Welby Pugin and took 13 years to build.* _You would of thought they'd finished it earlier considering they were all working around the clock._ 🤔 😏 😂

That may be true but everyone calls it Big Ben anyway. It’s only been called Elizabeth tower since 2012 for the last jubilee, before that it was just the clock tower.

Piccadilly Circus used to be festooned in adverts, billboards and neon from the 1920s onwards, that stretched for blocks but slowly from the 70s they got rid of them to reveal the beautiful buildings underneath, some of which they never knew what was lying beneath. They kept one facade for 'tradition'

You can't beat humming the iconic song Waterloo Sunset by the Kinks... I'm also reminded of Michael Caine walking over it and musing at the end of the iconic Alfie film.

Piccadilly Circus was compared to Times Square because it used to be festooned with neon and advertising on every block. Slowly though they started restoring the beautiful buildings behind (they had no idea what some of them looked like), but left one block out of 'tradition'.

It's always sad that as soon as anyone posts a video about London you can absolutely guarantee that the anti London brigade will come out in force! Apart from being extremely tedious and boring MOST of what they say is ill-informed, a false impression or downright lies. Add in that they APPEAR to base their prejudices on tourist area and apply it to the whole metropolitan area which is so ridiculous that it's laughable. There are 32 Boroughs in the Greater London area all of which have nothing in common with each other apart from the London Borough of prefix attached to them. They each have their own identity and culture and should be treated as such. If these people actually bothered to do some research they'd find out that MOST of what they claim really isn't true at all people do interact with strangers in many ways they do have time for you. Having worked in the suburbs for over 25 years my experiences are genuine and based on factual interaction and not a preconceived notion. It's always amusing that the ones who claim to be "friendlier" fail to see the irony of their assertion when they make their less than friendly comments 🤣.

I remember the red phone boxes being used for nothing but making telephone calls. It was the early `70,s and my mum used to use the phone box just across the road from our house ( we had no phone in the house ) to call my dad - who was serving in Belfast / Northern Ireland at the time. It was a dark, cold and foggy night and every 3 minutes another 2p ( £0.02 ) would be inserted into the phone box in order for the conversatiin to continue. I was about 10 years old. Suddenly my mum heard the sound of a loud explosion through the phone line - which then went dead. A bomb had gone off, and I can`t remember how long we had to wait to find out that my dad was still alive. He lives, still.

Thanks for the recommendations! I’m from the U.K but Kyle is from Canada and I am currently showing him around my home hence the name of this video ! We are only here for another month and currently staying with family in the south west of England but if we get more time here we would like to explore more of England even the areas I (lauren) haven’t been to! We will be posting a few more videos from my local area soon!

I wish we could have gone all these places but for this trip it’s been limited. We did explore the southwest of England though and loved the beaches, and we did visit Edinburg (another city I know) and loved it. Really wish we could have gone into the Highlands though! Thanks for watching!!

It is a lot cleaner than it used to be. In 1957 it was declared biologically Dead. There are now 125 species of fish in the tidal Thames. Between Teddington Lock in West London and the sea. Seals have been known to come upstream as far as Teddington.
