Anyone else watch and enjoy the earlier “three weekend adventures in Britain” episode?
Just me? Hello?
I live in Saigon VIETNAM ....He done a great video on VIETNAM
Sorry to be pernickety, but factcheck at 7:07 - the textile industry was centred in that region because the rainy climate suited grazing sheep (for wool) and the cultivation of flax (for linen). It was not to grow cotton there - no cotton was grown in the Manchester region. All the raw cotton was imported from the Americas and South Asia for subsequent manufacture into garments.
AMAZING THEY DO THAT HERE IN VIETNAM 😍😍😍
The quality of the videos is always amazing
Thanks 😊
I WISH I CAN GET AS GOOD AS HIM ....😍😍😍 LOVE FROM VIETNAM 😍😍😍
It’s always nice to see wonderful group of folks touring the beauties around them thanks Karl for the cinematic view. Always lovely to see James back in the videos.👏👏👏
Thanks David 😊
LOVE FROM VIETNAM 😍😍😍
Three weekend adventures wasn't that bad. I preferred it to this to be honest.This is just like a guided tour.
Variety is what I love about Karl’s vlogs..
Thanks, Karl for such a great video. Manchester is such a happening place with such a diverse group of people. No legs again.😪
Now on a binge of the UK breaks 😁 Love that Nick and Amy showed you around my now adopted home 🤣 I live 10 mins walk from Media City. And was only on the Peaks today. Love this series even though I'm getting to it a year late 🤣🤣
Great to see James make a cameo again, James what you doo???
He Parties.
i wished he would be more in the video and be the guide next time
first of all... what an amazing lady is your mom, so loveable and with a neverending energy, always a smile on her face. one only can love her. i really appreciated these videos of england, such a beautiful country! i loved them. thank you for your work, it is absolutely top ❤
Beautiful UK ❤️
Looking so happy with your travelling. Thanks so much for your sharing😘💓💖
Great tour around Machester and the Peak District. Excellent video editing. Keep up the good work.
So nice to see James 😁
this is so great..seeing the interior part of england..thank you karl for making and showing this vids.. hopefully more stuff like this from you..
wow james is back.cool.thanks karl for sharing ur vlog....🤗
Been waiting for this one 😍
Yet another quality vlog from mr watson…
Great one karl. Just start watching 🤩🤩🔥🔥
Great video Karl. It was so nice to see Nick and Amy again.
Thanks 😊
Thanks for this video. Such an interesting and informative video.
Great video. Lovely to see my local area up there. Definitely wouldn’t say Bamford Edge is a secret but it’s true a lot of people don’t visit more of the Peak District than Mam Tor and Dovedale. There is so much beauty around here and some of the landscape has to be seen to be believed. Fingers crossed that everything gets back to normal for you in the next year.
Yeah it was quite clear when we got there it wasn’t a secret 😜
Great video and have fun on your trip
I was so fortunate to get to live there while doing my Masters. Coming from Barbados (beaches and sun), I really didn't expect to fall in love with this city in the way that I did. So thanks for this little nostalgic moment that I've gotten to have through watching this video :)
Thanks for watching 😊
he is such a great inspiration 😍😍😍 love from VIETNAM 😍😍😍
“Just outside the city centre, a place called Salford”. Otherwise known as a city in its own right!
GLAD YOU NEVER MENTIONED OLDHAM ..lol ....😍😍😍😍😍
A bigger city than Manchester 👍
Really love your video! I just move to Manchester
walking tour facts, nice to re-live it :D
Enjoyed this mate. Used to live in Manchester, loved it there. Went to the Peak District last year as well. It’s always great to see how you capture it. Well done!
Cheers buddy appreciate it
I USED TO LIVE THERE TOO BUT NOW IM IN VIETNAM ....LOVE IT HERE IN SAIGON
There’s James 😂😂🤣🤣👍👍
Boom! 😉
You are seriously underrated
I WISH MY VIDEOS WERE AS GOOD AS HIS ....im so bad at it 😍😍😍 love from VIETNAM 😍😍😍

Manchester looks like a wicked place to visit. Another great one mate, thanks for putting this video together! It's made me want to visit the area now :D
Cheers 😊
I will think of going to Manchester, the views are beautiful... New subscriber from Saudi Arabia.
It's pleasure coming across your videos,, actually this is what I wanna do, I want to move around my country fast moving around each county one by one, there are 47 counties
Yooo me and my partner did exactly this 😂 literally moved just outside of Manchester during lockdown from London. The walks one way and city the other makes it worth it!
Nice 😊
Another great video! I always loved to travel but you are one of the main youtubers who have inspired me to start my own travel channel and vlog it. Keep up the great videos👍
Good luck with it 👍
I HAVE DONE THE SAME AS WHAT YOU MENTIONED ...love from VIETNAM 😍😍😍😍
So beautiful view

Yet again, an 10/10 visual. So informative, talking about the man who created the first computer, awesome stuff Karl!
Can't wait for more!

Your videos have inspired me so much. Just started college and I’m gonna study digital video production. Hopefully I’ll be making documentaries all around the world one day. Keep up the great work
Good luck with college 👍
after watching his videos i started my channel he is such a inspiration 😍😍 love from VIETNAM
Hi Karl, I'm newbie in here. I found your channel at the Vlog of Gabe Gabriel Traveller. I enjoyed watching to this Vlog. Such a great video.🤙🌟
Thanks and welcome 😊
Most of people when they think of England they all know London is the England. Me too. However now i i realized England have green and tourism spots thanks to Karls weekend trips 🎈
Glad they’ve been useful 😊
The area around Salford Quays used to be rough as back in the day. I remember playing a football match there as a teenager for my local 11 a side team in Manchester and being sworn at by the parents of the opposing side and felt that we could get lynched at any moment, well maybe im exaggerating but tou get my point.
everytime i watch your videos, it feels like im in the same place. a very well done video :)
Thanks 😊
I WISH I COULD GET AS GOOD AS HIM .....im so bad with my uploads lol ...😍😍. love from VIETNAM 😍😍😍
Whow I was just in Manchester! when I blink reality strike - and I am back in my living room in SA - nevertheless it is like TIMEtravelWITHKarl....enjoyed a lot! thanks Dude as always - been able to enjoy a weekend break - LOL....
Haha thanks 😊👍
Another great video! I’ve just moved to the same apartment complex!!
Nice! 😊
YOU SHOULD COME HERE TO VIETNAM 😍😍😍😍
Amy knows LOTS more about LOTR than I do although I was living in New Zealand when the first movie came out and even ended up to be in Wellington in a hotel next to the movie theater where the world premier was.
(And no, I didn't get a ticket because Gandalf, Hobbits, Harry Potter etc. isn't my thing)
The world would be a boring place if we all liked the same thing 😊
@@karlwatsondocs More elfs, dwarves and pointy ears for all you guys ;)
I liked that UK weekend press video. Maybe it was a bit of a different experience when filming it 😂
Hated it, but you learn way more from the bad experiences than the good 😊
I didn't think that video was bad.
Yeah!
I don't think the cotton was actually grown in Manchester. USA, slave trade? It's all in the history books.
And the guy who designed the Beetham Tower was actually only 4 at the time, and hadn't got the Leggo with the curved pieces yet..
Nice video, Karl (and friends). Keep up the good work.
Great video ! Are you doing any creator courses next year ?
Brand new subscriber here, referred by Gabriel😁
Welcome! 😊 Gabriel is a good guy 👍
Great editing skills big up. Tag James along in your next adventure 😂😂
On world tour series 🌎
I WISH I COULD BE AS GOOD AS HIM ...shame my uploads are so bad ....😍 love from VIETNAM 😍😍😍
I like your videos
I actually got offended by that lord of the rings summary 😂😂
I don’t blame you 😉
james is so millow.give him a beer🤗🤗✌🏼
James!
Visit Kenya please I will be there to show you around
They never grew cotton in Manchester. They imported it and processed it. Not that anyone cares. Love the vid, as always!
Thanks 👍
I cared! My house spent ages working out if the cotton was imported from America or Africa.
@@m1geo Cheers George! I can’t remember but I think it was from America - there was a thing called the ‘cotton famine’ in the 1800s which I once looked up. I recall it was quite interesting.
Places like Manchester and Newcastle have dramatically changed since I was filming up there for bbc dramas and films back in early 2000’s. People are nice, but the fucking weather is shite!
Shite in most of UK to be fair 😉
@@karlwatsondocs well when you’ve been where you have..no argument 🥴
0:41: "Jazz hands"
Hey karl, are you from england ?
Yes
I enjoyed the 2nd part of the blog as the journey around manchester can be undertaken by anyone who wants a town blog,I wander towns and have been to Manchester a few times and it is not a city that impresses me. It might also be because as a Scouser I find my old home city better with older things I enjoy seeing LOL.
Some of the walks near manchester are great, particularly as you are in the Peak District, had you done a day' or days of exploring that area I think it would have been better.
Well done for trying something different,
It's been 4 months....any new videos coming up anytime soon?
Got 2 big series in the works: Swizterland, Italy + Croatia from the summer, and Iceland from October. Editing is taking a long time though as I do these in my spare time and I've had a few very busy months.
Well, I'll have to disagree with you, because I thought Amy's rendition of LOTR was excellent! 😄
Haha! 😊 you are most definitely wrong 😉
where james
UK is very beautiful and my favourite I am your new subscriber from Afghanistan.
VISIT VIETNAM 😍😍😍
You could make a captivating video of a trip to the toilet
We did that in Japan 😉
James did that in Japan 😉😂
😅👍
MAD-chester
"products" Really. Is that research?
Come back to Marrakechhhhhhhhhh
Little fun fact: Alan Turing wasn't the person who cracked the enigma code, it was a group of polish people that did it and set it up and he just finished the job
Enjoyed the video, but was every single historical fact in this video slightly wrong?
Did Amy say facts or something else that begins with F.
Why do a video on Manchester but show Salford? That's a city in its own right older and bigger than Manchester.....
Great video as always, although I was tempted to hit 'dislike' just based on Amy's description of LotR haha. Someone get this woman the extended cut box set for Christmas.
Haha don’t think that would help 😉
Sir check mail, please.
Just like to say. Salford people are not mancs. Ok. Get it right. Us people frm Salford are true salfrdians. 👍. Salford a city within a city. Ok southern s.
Take me advise…..go ahead and delete my comment but you should be doing better
Quallo video, I didn't enjoy it though.
