The reason there's so many Turkish barbers is because there's a special visa that entitles Turks to come here, setup a business and claim citizenship after 5 years. Also anyone they employ can also claim it after 5 years. So it's basically a dubious way to buy a UK passport and why so many are empty as barbering isn't really their main purpose. It gets even worse as a lot have been set up by criminal gangs, who are not only selling citizenship but running fronts for various other illegal activities (modern slavery, smuggling etc). I think there's a street in Plymouth which has the crown with 15 or so of them!

My son planted a conker 35 years ago in in the garden its now 25 feet tall and still going 😊

Helen I commend you for having such a positive flowing energy after many hours of gruelling shifts at the hospital. With you being a NHS worker, I salute you and appreciate you massively. James, you are such a privileged man to have such a wonderful caring lady. If she can't put a smile on ya chops, nothing will.

Love it when Helen speeds up outside a Spoons!! 🤣

Thanks so much for the video and for putting a positive spin on scunthorpe. After living there all my life (56 years) I've always thought it is a grim sh#thole , which isn't as bad as it seems because it means where ever else you visit seems wonderful. I'm currently on holiday in Spain and was dreading returning home, however after watching the video and seeing what a wonderful place scunthorpe actually is , I can almost bring myself to look forward to coming Home. Straight to wetherspoons on arrival though!😂😂

Lol 😂 Moaning about charity shops.... 'I'm not going in another one!' Helen loves it like lots of us do 👏👏

You are truly made for each other,you can see the love you have for each other x

Most enjoyable vlog. Enjoyed the double act being back together.

Same here its migrant money laundering special. Barber dhops , car washes and takeaways. Theyre making hundreds of thousands

As a resident of sunny Scunny, this video turned out better than i thought it would have. It's a dying town, god help us if the steelworks closes. Of course there are some positives..... When did you visit, the high street looked busier than usuall. Good video all in all and thanks for coming.

Another enjoyable vlog guys, good to see Helen again she certainly adds a different dynamic, fast to the pub slowwwww to order. Magic.👍

Oh my gosh, thankyou for doing this video of Scunthorpe. I was born there 68 years ago but left at 19 to immigrate to New Zealand. I still remember Normanby Hall and Central Park. Scunthorpe gets the mick taken out of it bigtime, so this was very special for me. Love you two together.

I;ve missed the interaction of you two over the last couple of weeks .Great to see you sharing .

Another great trip, James and Helen.. Good vid

Like the stearingwheel lock 😮 not seen 1 of them since 1992 😊😂❤

Did ya know that there are 10 Turkish barbers to every 1 McDonald's restaurant in the UK

Well done on getting to 27k subscribers. Great to see the channel growing. Another stella vlog!

Suggestion for a future visit,,think you’d love a day out at Yarm in Cleveland. Lovely old market town with lots of pubs and restaurants. And try a bottle of fantastic salad dressing at Strickland and Holts made by my 92 yr old mam Renee❤👍

Good video giving us a look around Scunny. Enjoyed it.

Hi Helen! My fellow thrifter! Great to see you, missing your comic relief and glad you & James had a lovely time together! Keep the video’s coming, you both are hilarious and it’s good to see bits of England from the States😊

The comment about conkers keeping spiders away made me belly laugh...my mum bless her believed this great video as always much love to you both

You saying ' this isn't good content ' is good content. I love both of yours down to earth way , much love

Helen will like this, I think. Fun fact about nearby Flixborough. When I saw the Ferry House I recognised it straight away. I helped commission Burton Stather telephone exchange in 1974 and although I only lived in Sheffield I stayed in digs near the pub and went home at weekends. During the week I used to cycle around the area frequently passing the Nypro plant at Flixborough. You may recall that on Saturday 1st June 1974 is when the plant exploded trashing lots of properties in the locality. Another little story, after Flixborough explosion I started travelling every day to and from Sheffield. The car journey pre motorway used to take ages to get back home on't Gleadless Valley. But one night as I reached the main road from Scunny, a fire engine on blue lights and siren shot past towards Donny. I thought chuffin' hell, that's handy, so I pulled out and tucked in behind it. I stayed with it as it tore past other cars even through a red light at Thorne and through Donny and out towards A1 through Balby. I turned South down A1 and fire engine went straight on towards Conisborough. Anyway, I got home in record time and so early that our old lady thought I must have been sacked. Oh you two don’t half make me laugh and on this occasion brought back memories of Burton upon Stather.

Nice to see you back on team Helen, James, I am Macbetinfotipping, commented before on Budapest, keep up the good work👍

Watching you picking up the conkers reminded me of when I was 14 years old and I went to Germany with my mother. We stayed with a family and they took us to different places and one of them was where there were loads of big Pine cones. I picked up loads of them in a bag and in my pocket and we got back to their house. I started to sort them out and then realized they had loads of earwigs in them.😳😳 So the lot went straight into the bin. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 We went to 'Bad Harzburg' which is near Hannover. (we actually stayed in Peine). but Bad Harzburg is a really beautiful place if you visit in the summertime.

Hi! I was one of the gallery assistants at 20-21, I'm really glad you enjoyed it at Moe's, he was very happy when I spoke to him about you coming

I went on Concorde. It was a static display at RAF Bassingbourn and had no wings. It was really cramped and the seats looked like they were the same ones that were used in the Austin Allegro. Thanks for visiting Scunthorpe. It was not on my "to visit" list, and I feel I can now tick it off.

Looking forward to the conker fight 😅 I used to put clear nail varnish on my conkers to harden them up , put a few coats on 😊👍

Here in Scotland, you used to be able to go to college to learn gents hairdressing, get a diploma ,then perhaps ,open your own shop.cant see that happening today as every high st is swamped by Turkish Barbers with 10 staff and penny numbers customers...this happened during theTories " Strong on immigration" policy.😂😂😂LMFAO

Love watching you both. You should come to Ull (Hull). Lots to do and see, a great Old Town, lots of history and plenty of Charity Shops for Helen

Watched the Huddersfield vlog...pretty depressing , decided to watch the Budapest vlogs, the van vlog, and now Scunthorpe vlog, gradually getting a feel for your character which comes across as genuine, and your thoughts on places, food etc is fair. Enjoyed seeing Helen , made me laugh with the wig part and the 20-21 visual arts commentary was funny. Helen is funny and complements you and is out of kilter in a nice way. ( From the Hudd but live Down Under for many years so good / bad to see places I have been / not seen) Keep up the good work...enjoyable vlogs

Hustleing hard, I appreciate your out of your comfort zone but producing top notch are content for us to consume. You are doing great guys keep hustleing.

I used to live in Village just outside Scunthorpe, we used to shop in Brigg mostly. Scunny market was the best for meat. Love the charity shops, me and Helen would have a fab time. Helen Brigg has a few too!

Great video James and Helen. Thanks for visting my hometown, I can think of worse places to live. Glad you enjoyed your day.

well.....not sure i should admit to spending a good deal of my childhood in sunny scunny :) it used to be a lot nicer but sadly unemployment has ravaged it.central park used to have an outdoor paddling pool,bird aviary,pond,butterfly house and the annual childrens gala was held there,most of the town turned up.the market isnt very old,the old market had more atmosphere and was a lot busier.the pods leisure centre is next to central park you couldve gone for a dip x

The irony of the “Lucky Tuppence” in sunny Scunny! I had the pleasure of accompanying my partner to the Forest Pines Golf Club In Scunthorpe whilst he played me and a friend hit the town. It was then just a town of Bookies and Charity shops back then, with many other stores closed down. Such a shame that many of our towns are the same now. Mind you, many bargains to be had! Lol

Cheers for the vlog James, regards to all 👍

Saw the Levellers for the first time at the Baths Hall a few years back....Happy days.

Thanks James , another cracking video. Enjoyed the classical violin music at the country house. Won’t be long before you hit 30k subs X

Great vlog. Kevin Keegan started his pro career at Scunthorpe before being bought by Liverpool. The Wolf fleeces for you both should be a deffo. Stay safe and thanks

Food came quicker than Helen choosing a drink! “Priceless”😂

Mums nail varnish was a goto performance enhanced conker, love the advertisement good for you mate

Hi James, love your channel. You’ve previously mentioned that you play the piano. So if you want to mix it up a bit, you could get a small keyboard in your van & do ‘guess the tune’ with us all! Kind regards to you & Helen. 😊

New sub here!!! Helen’s smile and laughter lights up a room. Great vlogs with a down to earth feeling keep up the good work!!!! Merry Christmas to you both 😂😂

You guys need to come to barton upon humber, got some charity shops, nice river walks and cracking pubs..

Had a couple of tasty away visits to Glanford Park with Hull City in the 1990s, you can't beat derby days, Oakwell is a good away too, any Yorkshire side as long as they aren't from the steel city ! 😂

Totally understand did not reliese full time job.Wish you every success.Will continue watching and supporting ❤

Helen's rant about conkers had me absolutely creased coz my partner's dad has them all across his windowsill😂

Hooked on this channel!! Never fails to make me laugh. ❤

I always find when going East to Scunthorpe it is always best to go and sleep in the car park at Fox House!! 🤪

These posts are truly the best. X 🎉

Scunthorpe seemed nice. Another good episode guys 🤗

Loving the shows guys, help keeping the missis and me sane while stuck here in spain, looking forward to moving back to Yorkshire.

Helen's looking hot these days James, great to see you both happy. We're off to sunny Scarborough next weekend, can't wait. If you're over that way we'll buy you both a pint in the Golden Balls on the front! 😂

Always sunny in Scunny! Another ace video 👍👍

I used to live near Scunny, (as they call it), in a town called Barton On Humber. Later on I lived in Scunny itself for a few years when I worked at a local chicken factory. You can imagine the reputation of Scunthorpe. I think I'll always have a bit of a soft spot for it. It's part of my childhood.

Used to go raving back in the day at the baths hall across from the supermarket good old days bk then.. Its rubbish when you pass 35 your body is knackered put the conkers in the airing cupboard on a string

Just a quality video!! Loved it!!!keep them coming, always put a smile on my face …. Smithy

Keep them coming James & Helen, van or no van ...

Another vlog well worth the wait. Love watching your channel... feet up with a drink... after tea (dinner for the viewers south of Yorkshire no douubt...😊)... cant wait for the Christmas Special. .... no pressure there then.... lol....❤

Great show again me n dragon watched this morn with coffee n toast. It’s normally wine at night. Going to all seaside towns next week booked it before started viewing your Bloggs now we know where to go bring on the fish chips 😂😂😂

I just love your videos brilliant entertainment. I love the go in and have your stuff done lol.

😂😂😂 Don't think Helen could hear you talking James. Been to Scunny a couple of times for ex army pals weddings, it's better at night. Great video again. 👍

Just loving the gens of places you find 💞

Guaranteed laugh out loud moment whenever Helens in the video, this time it was ‘sometime later’ insert you put in, when she was choosing the Guinness 😂 P.s. Take the subtle hint and “get your stuff done” James,Helen wants you smooth😉

I’ve just realised the best thing to see in Scunthorpe is the 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th letters 😂😂

You can still go on Concorde, it is on display at the Imperial War Museum at Duxford Airfield.

oh my days the more i watch the more i can relate to Helen, her passion to read, learn and grow. AND when she suddenly got distractred by a little seaweed.... my ASD brain screamed out.... yup Helen could be Neurodiverse.... coolio.

That was fair, pity you couldnt go round Normanby Hall, Helen would have loved that...loads to read and see.

Thanks for doing this video guys. No need for me to lose half day that I’ll never get back by visiting one day 👌

lovely helen back great vlog xx

Hats off to the litterpickers in that town ....looking good😮

Great video James and nice to see Helen .. Do you know that conkers are banned in schools now because it is described as dangerous! What a load of crap eh? Watched a blogger the other night on Grimsby and it is supposed to be Britain`s most deprived place with 75% of shops boarded up ..I thought it would be fun to take Helen there and see her reaction when she can`t o any shopping .. Thanks James and sithee!

"Its like herding cats". Love it!! Great recommendations for local businesses.

Brilliant Vid, What An Awesome Couple You Make !! Now James, You Simply Must Whisk Helen Over To Europe Again !!

I went to Scunthorpe for the first time a month ago, and injured my leg on a McDonalds outdoor table. It still hurts. Can't stand the place now.

Yay the queen is back 🕺🏻

Very cool channel love Barnsley folk, lovely couple 👍👍👍x

Great Hello fresh add James 👍and yes if you bake the conkers in the oven on low,very low for a hr they go hard,i always made the whole first otherwise i couldn't get the screwdriver through it 😁. Ooh poor helen when she stopped to look at that seaweed, you proper chunterd to her..id put that conker shell in your bed 😂😂😂😂..looking forward to the conker match" Ding Ding" 😂🤣

so thanks, now I know where Wetherspoons is in Scunny. Did not know the Blue Bell pub had closed down... Been away from home for 20 years, and Scunny High Street looks like a lot of places are closing down. Woolworths has gone it seems, and a couple of other places I knew so well when I lived there.

I,ve been to Scunthorpe and I,ve been on Concorde ( at the fleet air museum in Yeovil ) It,s still there i think ...

Idea for you when Helen goes in charity shop just say you'll wait in spoons , you watch she would be in and out in minutes . Winner 😊 love the vlog 👍

Nice vlog guys ,,,,what’s next on the agenda,,,,curry looked banging 😋👍🏽

Love it when you two are together! Helen wants to know about everything dosent she james,so refreshing.anyway enjoyed this but have you any thoughts about a bigger van and filming that? Fitting it out etc? With her ladyship putting her ten pennuth in.lookin forward to the next one mate.

Good video James, nice to see Helen back. Scunny town centre looks abit depressing if I'm honest but then its just the same as most northern towns.

Conkers - you’re right about soaking in vinegar! It made them smaller and harder and very difficult to break in a conker fight!

Indus brings back a few memories from my late teens, early twenties...Curry after town then straight across road to Omega..I think you can guess what that was .🤪😉😉

Looking forward to seeing you cook up a hello Fresh meal in the van or outside the van 😊.

Bratislava and Budapest to Scunthorpe talk about extremes 😅😅😅😅

love you two coming from south yorkshire its always nice to hear your take on things and the last time i was in sunny scunny must be 25 years ago was a dive then lol.

Scunny is where ya get what ya see. I love it. Its real unlike the big materialistic cities . Love the vid.

James. WTF? You made me LOL. One minute you are eating a big plate of oily mush, then all of a sudden you cut to you with a big box of Hello Fresh. I nearly spat my cabbage soup out. 😂😂😂😂

Hiya. Never saw the screen cleaner before. Nifty idea.

Quality as always top drawer 👍👍

You are living the dream because you are with the person you love. Unfortunately my wife died of cancer in the pandemic so I'm quite lonely. Thanks for a lovely channel and cherish what you have. BTW Helen is the stat of your channel. Take care lovelies ❤

My family do HelloFresh, and they all think it's so great ‼️ You can order as much or as little as you like, say 7 meals or just one or two ... and it's so well organized ... and I'm not getting paid to say this 😁😁

I took my Linda for a day out in Barnsley a few years ago. We had a good day out, well I enjoyed it.

great vlog. One of best around I reckon!!

Great video, in fact the best Hello Fresh advertising ever. ❤
