In Summer 2019 I took a trip to the southern most point of the British Isles. This is what happened. New type of video here. Let me know what you think.
Really great production, keep up the great work!
Go to Peru! It's an ancient civilizations lovers dream. Nazca, paracas, wari, Chan chan, moche, chavin, inca, chachacoya, and many more. They have a good bus system and flights in country are cheap. Most tourist spots are in the south but the north has great sites, pretty places, nice towns for cheap with great food. (Ceviche, seafood, beef, chicken) Bolivia is cool too. The other one on this side of the world is the maya and other mexico ruins. I like the ones like tikal, Palenque and calakmul that are in the jungle, less traveled, and have moneys and other animals around. Palenque has nice jungle camps in the park. The howler monkeys will have you up early usually. Lol. A lady at a camp right outside town can call the monkeys to feed them. Its awesome. Plus you can get to town way easier then the park. Food is great and so cheap. Juice and fruit, taco, bakery and other stands everywhere plus restaurants. Gorditas. Hotels $20-30 is more then okay. Often less then $20. My hotel in Mexico city was $17. The pyramid of the sun and moon, a $5.50 roundtrip from thr north bus station, was the most impressive is size ive been to and really cool day. The subway take you right to both man bus station and the airport. You could spend a month doing a circle 3-4 hours around mexico city seeing countless ruins. The city is nice and has a nice vibe. Oaxaca has many ruins too. Mexico was safe in the central and south and easy to get around. Guatamala not so much.
The truth is chitzen itza was a maya site but the toltecs built over the original and today's site is a toltec, Aztec- maya style, ruin. If you go to the classic age cities from 4 years before you can see the difference.
lucky bugger , lol , i'll get there yet ! gr8 vid.
@@theodoresmith5272 Oh I am well aware. I had a trip scheduled for Summer 2020, then Summer 2021. It will now be 2022 at the earliest :(
Cool vid, you’ve a great excuse for travelling the country showing us the ancient sites
The Scillies are on my list of places to sail to. Not a mere dream. I have the boat, the skills and the opportunity. Being Norwegian, it seems I’m not the first to go there. I promise to not loot and kill, though.
Lykke til! Brother. Go soon before the sea levels raise too high. I wanted to do the same but in a conventional way by jet. For me, a Tjomling caught my fancy and living on that ancient isle was my own Scillies. Miss it everyday.
You have the opportunity to do what so few of us can and yet so many dream of. I envy you. I would love to visit any of the islands and remote regions of the British Isles. But I'm stuck in the United states dreaming about it. Set sail live your dream.
Vikings have been here before.
as long as you row there I'm sure your ancestral crimes will be overlooked.
Well if the Scilly isles are on your bucket list I would recommend you get there you will not regret it 💦⛱️
Man, the music, your narration and quality of these vids bring me into a state of awe/meditation, somehow revives my love for history and my imagination. Love your work man. Wonderful , educational and relaxing.
I agree with you 100%
I could not agree more.
Well put, this content is truly amazing indeed.
Agreed, the music score is so on point. Perfectly curated to match the scenes and narration and it flows so seamlessly.
It must be an extremely arduous task to match it all have it sync so perfectly.
All the praise and acknowledgement to the maker for this high quality work. Bravo👏
Each time I hear Mozart, I feel like invading Poland. Yeah, music has a great effect on us bipedal apes. So nice you sat down and you started eating leaves. That is the real peace of mind.
What a fascinating documentary on a rather obscure and little known topic, especially for your viewers outside of the UK. Thanks Pete, very well done indeed.
A new video by Pete Kelly? My morning just got a whole lot better!
I visited these islands as a small boy in the early 1960's. Your documentary brought all of my experiences back to me as if it was yesterday. Many thanks for a fine video.
I love Arthurian mythology. But what we really need is a movie on Irish Mythology.
For real, set during the height of conflict between ancient britons and invading Rome. All the migration of displaced Briton’s and Picts has caused violent chaos across Celtic Ireland. An Ireland where all the Celtic gods exist in the flesh and metal in human affairs and early Iron Age Irish myths are recent history and the present
And the best place for the setting of that movie are counties Clare, Cork and Kerry respectively. Do you guys like stone circles/portal tombs/prehistoric sites?! I hope so, they are everywhere there. 30 min or less from my hometown, Norman castle with every local ruin transplanted and restored on site? Check. The most famous dolmen etc. in the world, set in a now-karst landscape? Check. Cheap flights? Check. Pete could even drive there from where he is!
The Cattle Raid of Cooley!
@just another human I may just do that.
A proper well funded epic based on the Cattle Raid of Cooley (Táin Bó Cúailnge) would be fantastic...as long as Mel Gibson wasn't allowed within a million miles of the production 😄
I believe inhabitants of that archipelago prefer to call them the Isles of Scilly rather than the Scilly isles.
Worked on the isles about 20 years ago, loved it! You got a chopper over back then 😎
You can again now, if work or the customer is paying for it!
Was there 20 years ago! Took the ferry and nearly missed the return sailing. Only a frantic yomp saved us. Fantastically beautiful place.
It's Friday, I have an IPA from a local brewery and snacks in a bowl, now it's time to sit down, relax and enjoy. Thank you for all your work Pete, as usual, it's top notch
I am a Cornishman from Penzance Cornwall. My Grandad was born on Tresco and grew up on St.Mary’s before moving to the mainland. Amazing things to be found there!
Currently reading Winston Graham’s Poldark series. The narrator is amazing with all the accents. With 12!books all with at least 15 hours I am so fully immersed in the atmosphere of 18th century Cornwall! Going to miss it when I complete the last book this. ❤
I flew from Penzance to Tresco by helicopter to work as a chef for six months in the early 2000s the isles of Scilly has some amazing views. they also held the smallest marathon on Tresco when I was there 27 miles run on an island barely a mile by half a mile. It was nice to sit in the ruins of the castle on Tresco late at night once all the tourist had left
Where did you work
@@milospink8318 the island hotel
This was so well produced, and so relaxing to watch. I really love that your narrative doesn't just focus on science and facts (which let's face it can only ever postulate) but also refers to legend, and uses these beautiful places to wonder upon and imagine.
Fascinating. I had no idea these islands even were there…
My grandfather was born on Tresco in the 1900’s, beautiful place!
I LOVE videos like this that take a specific spot and cover thousands of years of history. I've watched this five times, there's so much in it!
Enjoyed hearing the archaeological bits on burial chambers. Have been visiting the Islands since 1968 and still going back for more.
Been watching your stuff for a little while now and really wanted to comment on the high quality you have maintained throughout, yet each video has a nice warm personal feeling to it. Especially this one! Thank you for the work you put into them and encouraging us to keep learning.
Those entrance graves look like the Hunebed graves in the Netherlands. (I'd love for you to do a video on those, btw.)
I happen to live close to them. Would like to see a video on them as well
We should never have ended the 335 year war with the scilly isles.
Really enjoyed this. My husband and I are due to visit this July ( postponed Golden Wedding holiday) and it was lovely to see the plane we'll be flying in, the airport where we will land & Hugh Town where we are staying as well as all the fascinating historical monuments (& the Callanais stones which we visited last year between lockdowns) as well as the beautiful views. A very well put together film. Thank you.
Absolutely astonishing video. Loved it. Love the idea of rising seas washing away large chunks of pre-history. Love telling the story of the world through the prism of one location
Fascinating! I didn’t want to miss one tidbit-taking my phone with me every time l have to do something, like feed my cat. It does become confusing particularly when people are contributing yet more information. When a doc of this caliber comes along, l can’t resist. This explains why l get to bed very late by times. There simply isn’t enough time to take everything in. I once spotted a man who was wearing a t-shirt that had a variety of peppers on it The caption reads “So many choices. So little time.” This saying encapsulates how l feel. Thank you for the trip! ( l would love to see what divers could dredge up around theses islands.
Thank you for such an interesting video. I am british but left when i was very young , i want to learn about so many places about the UK and if im lucky , even visit thank you again
I’ve wanted to go to the Scillies since I found out about them on that natural history of britain series Alan Titchmarsh did in about 2004 when I was about 8. It’s good to know that there’s plenty of historical sites to go and visit as well.
Excellent quality. Right up there with BBC.
I love history and thoroughly enjoyed watching this one on The Scilly isles. Thank you for sharing this fab and awe inspiring and interesting documentary.
Hi Pete, we here in Iceland know the saga of king Olafur Tryggvason written by the poet Snorre Sturluson in the volume Heimskringla. In 31. chapter is the story of OT coming to the island of Scilly with his men. There he met a Christian hermit and stayed there for a long time and learned from him, ( this is stated in the text) to lastly be baptized. As you probably know the king Olafur Tryggvason was in Kiev in his young age from 9 til 18 y.o. - there he became acquainted with orthodox christianity. In my opinion htis event was the seed of christianising of Norway, Iceland and later Greenland. My question is can we somewhere dig up the name of the hermit? Perhaps in churchbooks in Cornwall? Thanks for your help. Gudmundur
The hermits name was st elidius
Everytime I watch one of your video's, I have the Lord of the Rings theme in my head.
Thats interesting because my soundtrack is heavily dominated by the Lord of the Rings score when I research and write these videos.
@@PeteKellyHistory You should visit New Zealand once this pandemic is over. You will be humming the Lord of the Rings theme all the time.
@@admiralsquatbar127 I've been twice. The next video in this style is about my trips there. Possibly my favourite place on the planet.
I cannot put into words the beauty of your work here. Stunning. And I have seen everything on film and video plus accounts and narrations. You managed to create the next best thing to being there---and being there is no easy feat.
Yes Pete , please call these islands by it’s proper nomenclature ‘ The Isles of Scilly ‘ 🤘🇬🇧
Thats what I thought, always the Isles of Scilly, never the Scillies!
So it is like the Orkney and Shetlands Islands, a good educational comment for us all, not the Shetlands or Orkneys,
Is read that the locals call it just Scilly or Scillies and that “the Isles of Scilly is a Victorian tourist trade invention like the Isle of Capri.
If I could afford it, I would live there. Beautiful place, full of history. Right up my alley. 😊
I would to.
You can't beat the iow x
I would live in shanklin on the iow 🥰🥰🌞🌞
Lundy for me.
You'll have to sell your whole village to raise enough money to buy here..even then you need more connections in the right places just to apply to stay..
"All we can do is wonder?" Wonder is wonderful. It is the doorway to knowledge and thus, the gateway to the divine.
Thankks for an intriguing glimpse of an area that has always held a deep fascination for me ever since childhood.
Really enjoyed that, thank you. Never ceases to amaze (and shame) me how little I know about my own country! Thanks for teaching me something ...
Fantastic documentary.
I grew up on St Mary's with my father mother and brother.
My dad was the dentist on the islands for many years, Mr Barrie Ingram Fairest...
He was also a sub officer in st Mary's fire brigade, remember of the coast guard and the scouts.
I have some wonderful memories growing up on those beautiful Islands ...
If you remember the Stephen Menheniott murder trial where my father was praised by the judge for the initiation of the investigation.
My father was present in this exhumation party, helping with the dental records, which would confirm Stephen’s identity.
It was Barrie Fairest, who had been the dental surgeon on the Isles of Scilly for 18 years.
It was Barrie who had first raised the alarm, as to Stephen’s welfare and whereabouts.
Between Tresco and Bryher dry walls can be seen under the water just by Cromwell’s castle I love the Scillies especially The Turk’s Head pub on St Agnes Happy days on the good ship KIM
I sailed there from Falmouth in Cornwall, went too the main island and too a pub, then went back too the yacht too sleep then sailed back the following day, I wish I got too explore the Isles

Ignoring the name thing, that was a very interesting documentary; thanks. I must say well done regarding not once mentioning Cornwall, England. Many of us still regard ourselves as Cornish and certainly British, English, not so much. Still haven't got over the English invasion thing obviously. Hold grudges much...? My great grandmother was a fluent Cornish speaker and a Bard as was my grandfather. I remember that they had friends from Wales that used to come and visit, Welsh speakers, and they were able to communicate in Welsh / Kernewek, don't know the level of difference between the two tongues, but they must be very similar.
‘Cousin Jack’ - funny, but that originated as an insult from the English! (Are you a Donkey or an Ass? - A Jack or a Jenny?’) ‘Mur ras!’- Great thanks in Cornish. If it hasn’t escaped your notice, the ‘Cornish’ are a minority of around 25% in the majority of ‘Cornish’ Towns & Villages …
Out of that 25% you’d be lucky enough to find 12.5% that actually are Cornish, rather than just having moved here in the last 50 years!
Fluent spoken Cornish … really? When was she born 1600? My Great Great Grandparents came from St. Just - but they were certainly not fluent Cornish speakers, anymore than their Great Great Grandparents were! As for Bards … That nonsensical borrowing of a Victorian Invention 🤦
That’s the big problem really, The Victorian Celtic Revival - a Society led series of inventions and conventions. It’s all too easy to invent, then things get exaggerated …
@@davideddy2672 It most certainly has not escaped my notice and why would it? The Cornish have been in a minority in many areas in Cornwall for a long time. I won't argue with your percentages regarding the amount of Cornish people living in the area as compared to incomers; English or otherwise, but I can believe that they are probably about right sadly. My great grandmother was a fluent Cornish language speaker; yes really; it was not however her first language; I think that may be where you are confused. Dolly Pentreath was the last person to have had Cornish as her first language and she passed in 1777 apparently; not the 1600's. As for your great grand parents not being able to speak Cornish; that was their choice I am sure; doesn't mean to say that other people weren't speaking it whether as part of a dialect or as a complete language. Many original Cornish language words are still in use as part of the dwindling dialects in certain areas. The nickname Cousin Jack is thought to have been used first in the United States and dates from the mass emigration of miners from Cornwall. It refers in particular to miners before being adopted as a generic nickname for a Cornishman. Other documents suggest it was first used in other locations from Australia to South Africa to Alaska, but it was soon adopted throughout, particularly where mining operations where conducted on a large scale. I have found no evidence in my admittedly limited research to show that it has an English origin or that it was intended to be any more derogatory that other nicknames. Indeed there are records that if you were looking for work as a miner in locations across the world, to be branded a 'Cousin Jack' meant that you had a better chance of securing employment as their reputations often preceded them. Either way; it matters little as I adopted it because I am Cornish with plenty of Tre; Pol and Pens in the family tree and have spent a great deal of my life in South Africa working in the mining industry, so if the cap fits... As for the Bardic issue; I have not researched it as it is not an issue to me. I suppose with the upsurge in interest in Cornwall's Celtic history, some things were inevitably borrowed from the Welsh. I don't see this as too much of an issue as we are both Brethonic Celts and Cornwall was once known as West Wales back in the 6th century and the links are confirmed by the similarities in the languages.
@@davideddy2672 Depends where you are. I would say here in Bodmin probably 50% born and bred. In Camborne-Redruth it is about 75% born and bred from recent Cornwall Council stats. My work takes me all over Cornwall, so know much of it well. Overall in Cornwall, from stats I read a few years ago, it is probably around 50% or so born and bred, Cornish people mainly living inland in towns like Camborne, Redruth, St Austell, Liskeard etc.
On the use of 'Cousin Jack' I disagree that was an English insult. It was often used between Cornish miners, as Jack was a common name (my grandad was called Jack), and used to describe a fellow Cornishman. The term was taken overseas and used in mining areas, where it was recorded as being used by the miners themselves. Cousin Jenny was used to describe Cornish women. In the same way Cousin Jan was used by Devonians, to describe their fellows as Jan (for John) was common in the SW in general. The armed forces adopted that reference 'Jan' for a native, and 'Janner' became a common reference in the Devonport area, to refer to people from Cornwall and Devon, eventually shrinking back to Devon then Plymouth. To my generation, a Janner also means a local, not just someone from Plymouth.
On language, Dolly Pentreath often quoted as the last native speaker, was probably a monoglot, or at least Cornish was her first language, rather than a polyglot I suspect, as I have seen few records of her English speech, though Chesten Marchant is often quoted as the last monoglot in Cornish, died 1676. Cornish was in steep decline after the imposition of the English Prayer Book in 1549, many parents refusing to talk to their children in Cornish for fear it would hold them back in life. Certainly, the younger women around Dolly, could understand and translate her Cornish, a famous sentence being recorded from Dolly as 'an kronak hager du', meaning 'the ugly black toad', in reference to a visiting Londoner, a few years before her death. I therefore doubt Dolly was the last Cornish speaker, what of the younger women who could translate her Cornish? John Davy, who died in 1891, actually from Zennor I believe, could recite the Cranken Rhyme, which was in Cornish. Where did he learn it? It was not written down, so was verbally transmitted, the very definition of a living language! As to whether he could construct new sentences in Cornish is another question that has been debated.
We certainly use Cornish words in everyday speech. I will usually stop for 'crib' in the morning, a Cornish word, and will 'fossick' around, to mention just a few words. Modern Cornish is certainly revived by the likes of Jenner and Nance in the Victorian period, aided by its living descendent sister language, Breton, itself now under threat of loss.
Some of us are happy for this revival and affectation, especially those of us who have lived in other Celtic countries, and value our native British and Irish cultures. All culture is invented, but easily lost to neglect.
You are brilliant, I'm really enjoying watching your journeys, the narration, facts and filming are seriously good quality!
Great documentary Pete. Great content. Most informative, in your lovely relaxed style - Thanks, Teresa
Great video Pete - interesting history & very atmospheric - thanks.
Thanks Pete. Informative and well narrated and edited. Heading to Scilly Isles next week and this was helpful.
Nice work, man! You have a wonderful narration voice and cadence. Not to mention the interesting subject matters! Great story-telling...Good shtuff! Thanks, Pete. You rock!
What a great trip. I was enthralled. Thank you so much
Awesome as always Pete. Worth it for your soothing voice and beautiful camerawork alone, with rich history the icing on the cake
Good content Mr. Pete Kelly! Fascinating subject!
This was very enjoyable, relaxing and well-made. Thank you.
Excellent vid, excellent research, excellent narration! Man, this is great! Thank you, Pete!
Beautiful video, as always!
Fantastic documentary, really well done, thanks for this.
Very well put together, I enjoyed this very much.
wow... never saw these islands on a map...didnt know they existed. Nice !
Correct. I’ve been there last year. Everyone thinks I went to Sicily because they have no idea what the Isles of Scilly are.
been here 3 times awesome 10/10
That was amazing! Thank you, subbed!
Love your videos, thoughtful and poetic.
@Pete Kelly - this is my favorite style of video that you do. Thank you!
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today?????
Brilliant video. Well made and beautiful narrated. I could watch and listen to you all day.
Your knowledge is amazing......I love history but learning much more than I could imagine from you. Your history channel is outstanding 👏.
Thanks for always identifying people and place names. Much appreciated.
Excellent video mate. Entertaining, interesting and informative.
Very well delivered. More please. 👍
Thank you
Well Sir Pete Kelly.
You Documentaries have come a long way.
Notice the capitol D.
Becoming very professional.
No. They are Professionally done.
Three cheers for Sir Peter.
Booyah
👍👍🖖
Excellent documentary!! You truly caught the spirit of the Isles. Looking foward to our 4th visit this Summer. However, one complaint: never EVER call the islands "Scilly Isles"! The locals told me this very very clearly. Always call them "the Isles of Scilly".
I had never heard of these islands, now I must go there. It's amazing that people have lived there for so long, sounds like continuously since roughly 3000 BC. Now, I'm curious about those finds that must be underwater. Hope someone explores them soon.
Can't wait for your next visit to the isles! 💚🌍🌄🍀😎
If your thinking of going I recommend tresco island
The Isles of Scilly have an addictive quality to them. I've been twice and I intend to keep returning. They are like nowhere else in Britain. There's alot of Civil War and Tudor history whilst Tresco has the remains of a World War 1 flying boat base, there was a secret fleet that ran agents to occupied France in WW2. The 1449 Flight on St Mary's guarded the flank of the D Day operation with it's Hurricane 2Bs.
Excellent documentary! Thanks !
I hope you get to return and go to the giants castle. Funny,but seems this pandemic has me thinking that if I ever get to travel again, i will not say "Oh I don't have time to see that... maybe next time." I promise myself I'll make the time and see things till I'm tiered of looking.
Best of luck. And thank you for your videos.
Superb, professionally presented and educational. Thank you 🙏
I thoroughly enjoyed watched this educational documentary about the British scilly isles. Your narration throughout was professional, and the views of the scilly isles were spectacular. I also like the music you chose to play in the background. It wasn’t overbearing or loud, but just right. Almost ambient, trancelike, which I like, suiting the landscape of the scilly isles. Well done!
Thanks Pete...really interesting! I'd heard of them but had no idea where they were, and their history is fascinating.
One tip for people who want to go there: if you like puking nonstop for 2 hours then take the ferry. If not: go via air.
Hello from San Diego CA. Always enjoy your videos, and have learned so much more about history, because of them. Thank you.
I was excited to see your new video. So interesting!
Just finished your Orkney Island video and this new video popped up.
Thanks so much Pete🥰
"Post-glacial rebound" is a reference to land _rising_ because the weight of the ice has gone.
The 'rebound' part actually means a return to form, not literal rising, though that is _usually_ what happens when glaciers disappear. In Britain's case only the northern half of the archipelago was depressed by glaciers; the south was correspondingly tilted upwards, like a lever. Today southern Britain and Ireland are gradually sinking while Scotland rebounds upward
@@alexv3357 Where I live it is all a matter of land rising (although recently not quite as much as the sea-level rise), and it has been a long time since geology classes...and 'rebound' has a misleading 'bounce' connotation.
@@qwertyuiopgarth As a bounce upwards is how it got the name, and that is how it works in most parts of the world including North America where I live. Britain's just special
I enjoyed this discussion and learned much. Thank you both
what an amazing amount of history in such a small area,great video,respect from Scotland
Loved this video. Thanks for bringing history to life. Terrific job. Lynn
Absolutely loved this video!! Great speaking voice and awesome history!! Thank you for sharing!!😀💜
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today????
Thank you so much for posting this. I got as far as Land's End once, but couldn't afford the fare to the Scillies. Maybe one day ... I love ancient monuments and stones, your vid increases my dream to get there one day.
Absolutely loved this. Thank you!
My family have been visiting for around 100 years now, and this video was spot on, perfectly captures what the scilly isles are like and were like ❤
@Pete Kelly. My Dad dragged me around these as a child... Cairns, rockpiles n open entrance graves, from Dartmoor to The Scilly's... This video was a lot more interesting!
Nice Pete. Thoroughly enjoyed watching and learning more about the Isles Of Scilly.
Did you know that below the ancient village there's another burial chamber hidden in the bracken ? I grew up at Bant's Carn :D and my grandad used to be one of the keepers for the ancient monuments :) in the 1970's
Thank you for sharing your trip and knowledge I really enjoy your work
Absolutely brilliant video on the history of Scilly Isles. I am going to visit whenever I get the chance
I really, really, enjoyed this video, very interesting and informative, thank you.
Wow! Why have I never heard of this before! Dang have to take it with the English relatives! Good stuff! Know where I’m going next! Cheers ! Ps: I’m from Canada! Brilliant!
Looks like an amazing place to visit. Greetings from New Zealand ☺
We got the same sir name, if we are related you would have lots of family in Cornwall. Also I've bee to the Isles if only for a short time its still amazing, I'd like too go back and explore
Brilliant, thank you and thanks for posting, very informative.
Trying to get up to date with all these videos. I love the variety of topics as well as the highly professional presentation. Loving the "entire history of....." series. Obviously very knowledgeable, but presented in an easy to understand style. Excellent quality and excellent work all round. Keep up the good work, sir. A pleasure to watch.
Fantastic video mate thank you 👍🏻
This is absolutely a fantastic video, thanks so much for your documentary - it was so eye-opening and cool! WOW
I have just finished watching it and I must say my notebook is full of beautiful history and myths. You have brought out the inner Lara Croft in me and this is just a magical story waiting to be written - wow. Great documenting!! So much respect to you. Thanks again
Love your work Pete
Fascinating. Thank you
Just found your channel! I have a trip booked to the Isles of Scilly in May 🤞. Wow, I was just enthralled by your video, and I'm not much of a history buff! Really look forward to checking out the rest of your videos 😊
Yippeeeee someone at last knows how to call our islands by their correct name .... was beginning to get really worried that Boris or someone had changed the name when we weren't looking or something... ;D
Absolutely fascinating!
PETE
I LOVE and only listen to your LONG documentary's.
Please dont stop those
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today??
