Also the training scenes were filmed in Epping forest

Just spent 2 weeks at welcome and our bed was awful but as for the rest of it faultless entertainment was 1million% perfect as usual

its insane that the whole movie is filmed in england. i always thought just some small parts and everything else is filmed in southeast asia somewhere but NO the whole thing is filmed in england. amazing job for the film makers and movie set & prop guys.

What tent did you buy?????

Recently? Dude, he died in 2014.

great video!! ive been trying to find the location of the lake for years, do you have any idea where it could be ?

Current state is totally trashed with holes in the roof.

It was also made around cliffe marshes (mead wall) in Kent

Kubick was a genius

Delasandros is best to me born and raised in Philly been to a west ham game in 1979 fa cup game against south rend united at the bolen

Really? King Henry 8th was here too? Wow interesting

Where is the UK please?

Great video about a spectacular but horrifying tragedy. One small point, sight of Princess Alice’s red (port side) light implies that she was on Bywell Castle’s port side and intending to pass correctly - port side to port side. Starboard is to the right. If she was passing along BC’s starboard side she would have been contravening established practice and would have shown a green (starboardside) light, the vessels travelling in opposite directions. The apparent decision aboard PA to change to the north side put her across BC’s bows, the manoeuvre revealing her red light.

Nice video, mate. I grew up in East Ham in the 70's and 80's, and we spent a great deal of time exploring the Beckton Gas Works; it really was an adventure. I visited the site before and after they filmed Full Metal Jacket there, and I remember seeing the dead palm trees there when I returned in 1987 or early 1988. According to Wikipedia, they imported 120 palm trees and many thousands of plastic tropical plants to convert this derelict gas works in East London into the city of Hu'e. Although the area needed to be developed, it is a shame little remains of the Beckton Gas Works, which had been the largest of its kind anywhere in the world, which once employed around 4,500 people. Did you also know that the scenes set at United States Recruit Depot, Paris Island, were also set in England at an old RAF Barracks called Bassingbourne Barracks. Love the video, mate. Best wishes, Rich

Im a cockney red and used to love going to Upton Park to watch man United and your other ground is crap no atmosphere no banter like you had at Upton Park one of the best grounds for atmosphere

Congratulations buddy

Way to cramped packed in like sardines my worst nightmare looks awful

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"

Great video. I came across this looking for a Hawk the Slayer filming locations video but there isn't one. Maybe you could do Hawk the Slayer next? Lol

It’s really rude to walk across someone’s pitch like that . At the 10:41 I would have opened the window on you so you got the message ! It’s also a bit weird to film someone’s Motorhome and laugh at them when you are in a tent .

great watching this i was one of the platoon in the film and had week there great time and did the full training which was all done at beckton.thanks adrian bush

Crazy after all this time I never knew that it was filmed there. They did such an amazing job with the set in the film that it really was transformed.

Enjoyed that, mate, that was great. Cheers.

Thanks for the video mate going in two weeks and wanted to see some reviews

I worked at the British gas site many years ago when they had two gas turbine gas compressors. At the time part of the film set remained & I was asked if I want a tour around. At the time I had not seen the film & declined. Idiot. Undoubtedly the best film of all time I have, the original script & a number signed posters.

I am going here end of the month for 3 nights what is it like? Stayed at golden sands but fancied trying here

The Training was filmed at ATR Bassingbourn in Cambridgeshire. I did my 17 weeks basic training there when I joined the army. There was photos in the naafi of it been filmed.

I was aware of the incident due to Jack the Ripper victim Elizabeth Stride claiming she was on board during the disaster, it is thought she was lying about it. A truly horrific event. Thanks for the video.

This once fine building has been dropped by Whetherspoons, and with a huge gaping hole now in the roof for a month or so and Thurrock Council virtually bankrupt and supposedly doing nothing, this place is advancing into something altogether near impossible to rescue. The organ console and possibly some of it's recovered pipes are thankfully in safe hands and now in storage. I used to frequent this place when it enjoyed a revival in the 80's with the great manager, Roy Roberts and superb projectionist, David Stickland who knew how to do presentation before a film with music on-cue, lighting sequencing on-stage and the multiple curtains opening, one after the other, plus of course, Alan Newman, ex- BBC World Service announcer who came in to play the organ there in superb style. Then there were the volunteers who helped restore and maintain the place in those final years. What a crime that no-one in this town on the Council ever bothered to rescue this from all the lousy operations who successively purchased this building, promising everything yet doing absolutely nothing. Only Essex businessman, Terry Holdings had the courtesy to give the place one last chance in it's final years of operation from the late 80's as a cinema and then as Charlestons for his son-in-law, Bob Beardwell. Genuine folk without any BS.

I grew up in the Warren, the Welcome was always the best camp but they'd never let us in the club to chat up the holiday maker girls but it didn't matter there was plenty out and about lol I'm all grown up now but still live in Dawlish, nice vid 👍🏻

Travelled down from Scotland last June for 14 nights cost £400 with the tourer caravan weather was fantastic as you say people were fantastic lots of londoners but really friendly ...loved the restaurant and the out door swimming pool .. We went into Colchester 8 miles away to asda for our essentials....can't wait to go back end of June..cost 2023 end of June £430 for 2 weeks

Buy a trailer m8 a lot cheaper than taking 2 vehicles

I just found out an ancestor of mine died on this boat...my 3x great grandmother was meant to go on it with her 19yo son but she changed her mind...i just read a newspaper article and she's quoted in it having to identify her son.

Amazing place & Amazing video 📹 I've recently been inside myself and it doesn't look good

Good vid.. just started camping this year with my Mrs and 5yr old girl, loved how we've got to sites and she's just been able to make friends straight away, already started booking places for next year, this place could go on the list ✌🏻

The welcome is a very decent place and streets ahead of the poorly run Hazlewood opposite, the manager i think was John who I complained twice to and he was incredibly rude when we asked for cleaner linen and assistance in what was a very dirty chalet back in August 2019, do they clean? Nope ! A contrasting experience opposite, as i liked Dawlish Warren, i wanted to return only last July and my family had a great time at the Welcome with enough activities to keep them occupied throughout. Thank you !!! I will be back again in 2023.

I enjoyed it mate. Well done and here’s to more! I started in the City in ‘87, and it’s a world away now from what I knew when I pass through now!

Giving it a listen now mate! Just came up on my subscriptions.

Great movie! 🎥👌Another gem of Andrea Arnold: Red Road, in the same style....high rise living and problems👍

Like. it. Video. South. West. Devon. Katy. Leeson. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

is that near tilbury fort where Mia threw the kid in the water?

I am 63 now, being going to Dawlish Warren since we were in our 20's. Love it there. Went to the Welcome site loads if times when our son was small, but changed to Hazelwood when he grew up, it's directly across the road and a fraction of the cost and quieter, which is nice for me, the wife and the dog.

Nice video, congratulations on your marriage.

Definitely overpacking, but looks like u had a gd time which is what counts

I'm glad you and your family enjoyed your time down here . I live up by Exeter and Dawlish , Dawlish warren and Exmouth seafronts are my favourites . There's many places to go . Dawlish town is famous for its black swans . It has a lovely scenic river .lots of waterfall and wild life and you will see some fish to . All kind of birds as well. The fish chips is good at Dawlish . At the moment there's seawall work being done by network rail but normally the beach is nice . If you go under the bridge and turn right walk around to Coryton cove ,it nice there to . Starcross has water taxis over to and from Exmouth and ferries so you can have a small boat trip if you like over to the other side . Nothing else in starcross though it's a normal village really . When your at Dawlish warren the warren is like a peninsula in the estuary and so there a beach on the back looking up river . I doubt there are pet restrictions there but obviously once the sand runs out being N estuary it's mud. Do not walk on it . Down the coast a bit further is Paignton , easily accessible by train . Car can be pain when it's busy . Paignton has a pier . Tbh it's just a expensive arcade but the beach itself it absolutely beautiful sand. Paignton has a main Street which is your usual holiday type place . Arcades gift shops etc . Don't venture beyond the train station away from the beach cos it's run down . If you like the Moors Dartmoor is easily accessible and about half hour away . Go via bovey tracy. If you like moorland river swimming go dow to the second ashburton exit of the A38 and go on through spitchwick . The area is also know as newbridge but do look it up on KZbin . Back to Dawlish . Instead of going in the big pay and display carpark you can sometime get free parking not far from the town centre but it is a treck to the beach . Enjoy Devon when you come back

To many people for me 🧌

So……that’s where the British people get their deep accent they get it from Roman soldiers who pillaged burned and raped their village so…..some nasty Roman soldier is your great, great, great grandfather 👴 who knew 😬🫤😲

We heading to Cotten Holiday park in August so this has been a very welcomed video. Thanks

Great video. Quite sad to think that this tragedy is forgotten or not well known only a relatively short 144 years later. I’m not sure if you mentioned if there were any survivors?
