"This restaurant doesn't seem to have anywhere to sit down and eat" - In the UK, we have a special name for ''restaurants' that don't have anywhere to sit down and eat - We call them "SHOPS"!

Love the fact that you were calling Stanford’s pie shop a restaurant 😂😂

I am really enjoying the countryside episodes just because you get excited about things I am totally used to, it's great hearing a different perspective, makes me more grateful to be English!

At 6:55 I think you had a bit of an epiphany. Although we welcome tourists (especially if they're like you guys), England wasn't built with tourists in mind. Whether it's Skipton Castle, the Tower of London, or the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, it's all real!

I wish you had come over to visit in the summer rather then the winter , but you two are so cheerful no matter what the weather is ! :-)

Another great video. Think I went there years ago. Churches like that in practically every village in the country.

Love your enthusiasm! If you’re ever in the UK again then definitely go to Chester, in north west England! Absolutely filled with history. And also try and visit Pembrokeshire in Wales if you want gorgeous countryside and beaches; a nice way to see the country.

Love your video's I live here in the UK and enjoy your perspective of my country. Your style of presenting should be on terrestrial television it is that good. many thanks.

Great seeing Americans enjoying Yorkshire. Hope you come to Sheffield next time you are over here.

This is amusing... I'm from Skipton, it's really funny watching you guys see my town through totally new eyes.

Brilliant video. As a Yorkshire native from just down the road from Skipton it's great to see what visitors think of the area. Looking at the rest of your videos you did the UK right, London's good but you went other places. All the best!

Hello from Skipton :) Glad you enjoyed your time here! :D

Your enthusiasm is so infectious. It's a joy to watch your videos. It's so fascinating to hear your reactions to my country - it's like seeing it all again and learning to appreciate what I just take for granted.

Apple sauce is a traditional condiment/accompaniment for roast pork, so it figures. Beef gets horse radish relish, lamb gets mint sauce, and pork gets apple sauce (plus gravy and roast potatoes and green beans and whatnot). I always think about how much work it must have been keeping castles running. That kitchen would have been running all day every day, because of how many people to feed and how long to bake and slow roast and everything else, and that in turn meant endless bringing in more firewood, and cleaning and polishing. And then there's the beds and the clothes and people getting sick however often and on and on, with everything having to be done by hand.

You two seem wonderfully laid-back, really pleased that I found your channel. These England videos put a smile on my face and now I'm enjoying going through your Japan vids too.

So glad you enjoyed your visit to my home town. I really enjoyed your "take" on Skipton Castle and have also enjoyed your other videos. Hope you'll find time in your busy lives to return, but in the meantime, Thank You both for posting your videos. All the best from a "Skiptonian"!

Hi, im glad you enjoyed your visit. The reason that you find elaborate buildings in every town is because every town is potentially thousands of years old. :) and as time goes by, stuff just keeps getting older.

Only just discovered your channel. Loving the UK vlogs! Castles rule OK!

Good place for the canal trip.

Why have I only just found this couple, my life's now complete 🤣

There Is a really good woods area with streams, not sure If you walked It. Eventually It brings you full circle to the town area. If memory serves me I think the beginning on the bridge Is the start of It, across the road from the old fashioned sweet shop. Good videos, you guy's know what you are doing and have a genuine Interest In places. Regards.

Apple sauce is traditional with pork, going back for centuries. You've seen medieval images of roast pigs with an apple in their mouth, right?

Another awesome video guys. Keep em coming. I love it x

Excellent Pies are Just around the corner nearer the High st. 50 yards away. Just where the Cobble Stones End for the Junction / Bend, Roundabout. These are The Pies i Prefer. The shop is Just out of sight a 04:55 mins, just to the front of the white Van in the shot. Next to the Cafe with the Brown Wooden sign boards above.

Excellent! I'm So happy you decided to visit Real England and not just London. I hope you had a great time.

Awesome video, great commentary.

Skipton holds so many memories for me as it was a place I visited with my grandparents when I stayed over with them. I love how much you enjoyed it. :)

Great video, glad to see you come north (even though your on the wrong side of the pennines lol (i'm a Lancastrian), still anywhere north of watford is cool .

Seriously guys your on screen chemistry is infectious. You've given me a whole new appreciation for my own country.

Next up we explore the awesome city of York! For now check out these other videos from England: Exploring Gargrave ► kzfaq.info/get/bejne/adRlo7Jjv6jJmGg.html Here's all of our British Isles Videos So Far! ► kzfaq.info/sun/PLrvJJu2Pt1jhvCgfwKedV1f5-7zzjpCbN

Welcome to Yorkshire :) good to see you having fun and trying new things :)

The apple and pork pie is exactly what I would want. Growing up with English and Welsh born grandparents I was raised that the alternating roast dinner for Sundays when it wasn't beef was always pork roast with apple sauce. So that pie would of definitely been one of my picks for sure.

Nice tour of my quite local town - enjoyed it thanks for the nice comments - there is so much to see and do in Yorkshire

Pretty cool you got to explore the castle all to yourself! You guys always have good quotes. "It's like a castle in here!"

Really entertaining.Thoroughly enjoyed you guys exploring Skipton.

I had a long drop toilet in Oswaldtwistle in the 60's, that maybe 20 houses used, a carpark sits on it now.

So nice seeing my town through other peoples eyes ..

A friend of ours is a gardner at a castle and she lives in her own little castle too. It has three floors and every floor was a room. So magical to sleep over at her place 😃

Love this so much hope you enjoyed Skipton, cant wait for York another place I know well,Yorkshire Museum free,aslo Jorvik Viking Center and of course The Castle Museum is a must.

I've always loved Skipton Castle. Glad you did too. :)

Brilliant!

I love that too - being in a place you know is vibrating with so much history. Happened to us in Italy when I sat on a step that was worn down just like that, and I overheard a tour guide saying people were walking on that exact step for 200yrs before the United States was born...wild stuff.

Pork is fatty, and the acidity of Apple's cuts through the fat of the pork ,that s why the two is eaten together, and pork pies are usually pinkish in colour ,these are dark ,coz they mince everything up including the snout and add it the mix

Wow! Tony Ferguson so peaceful and calm fella!))

Ive just discovered you guys and im totally loving your videos , always entertaining - hilarious in places , but remember - cream AND jam on a scone , and plenty of gravy on a sunday roast !!! 😁👍🏻

I emigrated from Skipton 16 years ago, so it was nice to catch up on the old place through this really enjoyable video. I always think the "Celebrated Pork Pie Shop" is a prime example of good branding, because when I was a kid it was just a very ordinary butcher that happened to sell pork pies, as most butchers did. A lot of the small butchers in the town are long closed, but Stanforth's found its niche in pies. Also, when I was a lad you couldn't really go into that chapel on the castle grounds, Well, you could, but it was basically where the gardeners and builders kept their tools and materials, so it looked more like a glorified barn/workshop. The castle as a whole has been spruced up quite a lot just in the last 40 years or so.

7:15 "It's not like there's an international airport down the road." 19 miles from Leeds-bradford international airport. ^^

What a lovely couple. And what a joy to see Skipton that I know fairly well, seen through someone elses eyes. Love you guys. ;-)

Awesome video! And that chaple totally looked like the one in Zelda! Dang now you made me want to go play Zelda lol

Great Vlog again , really enjoying your reporting style .

Great video. Fun fact, in the middle ages there were over 4000 castles in England alone. That's 1 castle for every 1000 people. Most weren't this impressive though. I think to qualify as a castle, all it had to be was basically a tower with a fortified wall. Some were tiny.

I would recommend Manorbier Castle in Wales. You can book rooms and cottages. It's right on the beach its stunning. Also, Tamworth Castle in Staffordshire, small castle in the Heart of England, they don't do rooms to stay in but it's got so much history dating back to the origins of Mercia.

Found your videos while looking up travel vlogs and trying to plan places to go and then I thought I recognized Eric. I'm from Fredericksburg and saw Atomic Raygun Attack live a couple times back then at the library! The concerts were fun! Small world/KZfaq! Cool videos and very inspirational!

Omg I'm from Skelton! This is so weird to watch, absolutely love it!!

Really enjoyed watching this video xx I live in Yorkshire and have just found out that I am a descendant of the de Clifford’s, how exciting to see the old ancestral home xx Thank you again xx

Hey, i live like a 10 second walk down the canal at the start of the video :D Great to see people enjoying my hometown :D

What a video guys ! ; thanks ! 😉😃👍

Pork is a fatty meat so we serve it with apple so the acidic sharpness cuts through the fatty flavour to provide balance. Pork and apple is very common in the UK.

You guys did the right thing, pork pies are eaten cooled or cold (which enriches the flavour)

you guys are so cool, love Kyde facial expressions and the huge bites Eric takes of food :)

Loved it. Wanted it to be neverending.

Another great video. ALL of those pies sounded So Good (except for one that had whichever meat it was and the mint). I would want to try almost every single one XD. And WOW, what a NEAT castle. And that church in Skipton and the chapel, what a cool little town =D

Pork and Apple is a traditional English food combination. Roast pork is often served with apple sauce, and traditionally boar's head was served with an apple in its mouth. Can't say I'm a fan, but it's traditional.

Wish the weather has been kind to you it's much nicer in spring and summer 😉

I'm Canadian and apple + pork is a very common flavour here. It is interesting to me that it's so strange to you. Do Americans not have ham and apple sauce?? What a sad life! 😁 Love the video... it's been over ten years since my trip to England and these vids are bringing back so many memories. It's fun to see things through your eyes. You're both pretty adorable!

You 2 are so funny love watching your videos of England. I am from Yorkshire. Keep doing what you are good at. Thankyou

Wait...tiny little skipton? Newly subscribed and your york video comes up which I have to walk being from North Yorkshire and now you're in the town I grew up. Love this!

I really liked how you could explore the castle on your own and pretty much undisturbed.

I remember telling my American buddy about a local church built in “ 680” he thought I was talking about that ‘weird European 24 hour clock thing’ 🤯😂😂. These old places are real not built for tourism. I’d love you to research the history of canals in UK. Great vid again.

I live near Skipton in a village called Grassington

Love the videos as always guys. You aren't far from me, i'm in a little town called Knaresborough! You should check it out if you're still in the area, it's got some great sights! Great to see you exploring outside of London, not many people do that :]

We do have a lot of castles in Britain. I have one in my town, Colchester. Another great video.

I love the video :) I've been here many times as a child as I am growing up in Skipton. I know it picture by picture and love to see people going to places I know so well. There is boat tours that run next to the castle on the other side of the path. It's a very cool experience and if anyone goes you should really try it.

Secondary vote for “It’s like a castle in here!”

Pork pies are generally eaten cold. That's a shop, not a restaurant.

You should come back around May time as everything looks so much better in the spring bloom...

Kyde is getting too cocky ;-) . As usual very entertaining and fun to watch !!

Ok. I have to go to Skipton. That tree in the courtyard is amazing.

Loved the video and can I suggest you visit the cotswolds my village Broadway in Worcestershire. Also sudley castle

Been to Skipton many times but never to the castle thanks for showing me round

If you liked Skipton, you would LOVE Haworth. If you're ever nearby again, you have to visit

I live there!

good video,really enjoyed your tour...thats one thing uk does,is showing off its history...

Maybe next time in the UK you can try doing canal trip, you can hire a narrowboat and explore the canal side pubs and the food they offer.

Haha! Knew you'd find the toilet funny! XD I visited in July 2012, and there were a lot more people there, but the castle was still cool and damp, even in the summer! :D

Pork & Apple is very popular here in the UK ^^ We have this combination in a number of dishes including pasties, pies, sausages and roast dinners.

Apples and Pork is a classic food pairing as others have said. There are a multitude of recipes and even gourmet sausages that feature it. I think the hot pies juicy effect must be similar to the Chinese soup dumplings, where cubes of cold jelled stock are mixed into the raw ground/minced meat and it melts during cooking into a flavorful juice/broth that is best eaten while hot. I got the weirdest optical illusion when you showed the inside of that "striking" church. At first it appeared to be an outiside view of a tower at night from below from a courtyard, but was really just an ornately carved wooden lantern (?) inside the chapel. Maybe it was just on my monitor. Anyway, thanks for sharing another cool adventure!

There is an international airport about 1/2 an hour down the road, but only a little one.

I live near Skipton and I’m a huge Zelda fan, always reminds me of Hyrule. Glad you enjoyed Yorkshire

Interesting thanks, I've done a video of Rochester castle, near where I live down in Kent in the southeast. Lots of history there's even a movie about it called Ironclad. Loving your tours, thanks.

Skipton Castle gets very Busy in Summer & at Weekends. Skipton Also Has an open Street Market All down the Cobbles Down Main St, ( the Street Leading up to the Castle. )

Haha, I was thinking the same thing about the dungeon as Kyde in the end :D

pork pie is traditionally served at Room Temperature or even chilled. This allows the gelatine to solidify. The gelatine keeps the pork away from oxygen which would otherwise speed up the spoiling. I cannot understand anyone urging anyone to eat this product while the gelatine is runny. Hint: Pork Pies (and Scotch Eggs) are delicious with a spicy tomato relish or Branston Pickle.

Interesting video👍I have been in this castle🏰

Glad you liked our home town :)

Great pie shop.

I am related to the Clifford family that lived in Skipton Castle its cool to see it. I live in wales so I need to see it.

Love the UK videos, well love all the videos, but it's just awesome to see you guys enjoying England, pies are deferentially enjoyed cold here, and hot, and in the middle, and.. Okay, we like pies. Hahaha, Yeah, a lot of touristy things here in England, people often think.. Right but is that really a thing.. Yup most of them really are, our country is very old, we love to eat hot savoury food, and drink lots of beer in cosy pubs, when it's cold or rainy out, go for walks, drink lots of tea. I'm really enjoying your videos, and I love that you're not doing the full touristy things, but still doing them, just like a local would, like instead of going to a "touristy" fish and chips place, you'll went to a local fish and chip shop, instead of going to a touristy cafe for breakfast, try a few local ones, that's the thing, there's good&bad local places to try all sorts of different traditional English good, the fun is in finding your favourite and enjoying it again for a treat, we all have our favourite pubs, our favourite cafe for a full English fry up, we all have our favourite restaurant that serves the best food, a good carvery that serves the best roast dinner. You might try some places and not like the food to much, it happens, but you might travel 10 minutes and there's a place serving the same dish but it's amazing! There's some real nice pie shops around England, a lot of them aren't restaurant style, ones you go in to buy your pies to take home, like a bakery, but if you're lucky you might go in just as they bake a fresh batch, always nice in the cold weather. Anyway, hope you guys had a blast in England, I'm really looking forward to watching your English adventures to come, your videos are very enjoyable to watch.

It is so bizarre seeing you in Skipton. you found it so interesting, to me and my wife we had an hour there and its like 'yup, another castle, another church'. it is great to see you enjoying it though.

If I remember correctly from when I visited, the markings in the wall were to show who built it so they could get paid for their work.
