Like to visit

St Helena is finally getting a connection to the Internet via a undersea cable - think I will retire there one day.

Very informative work. Thanks.

What about the other settlement on the hill?

Historic buildings?

Which one is cable mountain

Great video. Thanks.

It’s looks a bit like Cornwall

The Band doesn't sounds like the Band of the British Grenadiers.........

A real memory jerker - I was there in 1970 when HMS Minerva anchored off Jamestown for a few days. Napoleon's house was then largely empty, and my main memory is of the continual drizzle, although the coastline only a few miles away was dry and barren. Presumably the green walls shown in the film are not the original wallpaper - the arsenic used to colour it green leeched out in the continual damp, and contributed to Bonaparte's death. The French later thought the Brits had poisoned him, but after a programme on BBC radio a listener came forward with a section of the actual paper, collected by an ancestor who had been one of Bonaparte's jailers, and analysis showed it was laced with arsenic. At one time my photo of Jamestown from the sea was the only picture of St Helena on Wikipedia, but long since replaced with a better pic. Truly a great place to visit - but I don't suppose I'll get there again. (NB Ascension Island was interesting, too)

for so isolated incredible roads and other areas

Amazing

If I fly from Accra directly, it will take me three hours

Centilina?

they exiled Napolian to this place, built him a nice house, slowly poisoned him with arsenic. then exhumed his body and honored it in france. What a bunch of stupid evil pricks.

Extinction versus Life. Brits & French should be in an uproar.

Phil kelsall giving it the Blackpool treatment, no one like him for the Blackpool style of playing of course 😉

How can anyone put a thumbs down to this.

Really sorry have to be critical, music not the best, narrative well! Title drew me to Vlog, so disappointed. Could have been better.

super 😀

My grandmother is from St Helena, she is the sister of ex Bishop James Johnson.

I love the narration and the soft background music. I love the music of the stone. Outstanding documentary.

Beautiful and peaceful place in 2012. I wonder if the airport was completed and what affect it has had on the island .Usually when access to a place is improved too many people come there and ruin the place by their presence.

Slightly pedantically I make St Helena 15 degrees south so firmly in the tropics.

What an exellent video, & narrator, loved the tropical scenery and the absolute concocaphy of birds. Looks a wonderful place to not just visit but stay, .... far from the maddening crowd

Remember being hoisted ashore on the derrick of the old St Helena ( subsequently the “St Helena Island”)

This would make a good lair for a villain

I love these places . But this type of places are slowly dieing . Because nothing for young people . They can't support themselves without outside help . The population just gets older

what is the political situation there....looks peaceful.....

What a lovely video. That is a place I would love to visit.

Never in my life

Some people are lucky in death also...like Nepolean Bonaparte, who died and got burried.... in "Paradise", straightway !

It is "Saint Helena." It's religious. No need to try to disguise this as "Sant Helena."

OOOPS ! NOW YOU CAN FLY IN 5 HRS RATHER THAN 5 DAYS ON A BOAT

Just fyi there were three French generals and one civilian who accompanied Napoleon along with a bunch of servants; not 20 French soldiers.

Can we get Chris Powell playing this ?

My mother was born in St.Helena I certainly hope to visit 1 day..my mother lived in Half tree hallow 😊

Lovely video. Very interesting. Well done. Thanks.

The RMS St. Helena is like a mullet haircut: all business up front, party in the back.

Interesting

Magnificent. 2 :14 made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.

Excellent film. Seems a beautiful place to visit!

Excellent film. Very interesting and inviting. I am 86 years old and St.Helena is now definitely on my bucket list.As we say here in New York,USA, “ you done good “

In the 80s, I had a work colleague from there. One year, he saved up all his holiday to visit his mother. He didn't show up at work when expected but we had a message to say he'd missed the boat back. He was known as an "expert" drinker. Needless to say he got the sack.

Would like to visit

could visit but permantely live there could not. it is like going to live in an established neighbor hood where people have lived there all their lives and would find you a stranger to get use to.

AMAZING WONDERFUL WOULD LOVE TO VISIT SOME DAY. FROM CANADA. DIDN'T SEE ANY BICYCLES.

Beautiful love to be there one day from Pakistan

Love these videos of the different islands. Makes me want to live there.

the rms st helena doest work the route any more . she was in my home town , birkenhead waiting for a refit . she is going to used in the formula e racing circuit .
