At 22:43, the cliffs are, disappointingly, no more than 440 feet high (according to the six-inch OS map where the Island's "Highest Point" is marked at les Platons, a little inland from the cliffs themselves.)

At 19:02, the "gun emplacement" was a Type 606 searchlight bunker, with the searchlight housed with its stationary generator and extension lead where the grey doors are. It was deployed from either of the octagonal low-walled enclosures in the foreground. The now-blocked smaller doorway to the right of the searchlight garage was the entrance to a crew room. complete with bunks and basic accommodation. (Info from "The Atlantic Wall in Jersey" by Paul Burnal.)

It's good to find a KZbin video about Jersey with a commentary, especially one so fluent and largely accurate. I don't believe that Corbière Lighthouse's paraffin lamp was "huge" - I've seen it - the Fresnel lenses surrounding it magnified its light. During the German occupation, the lamp was lit on demand from the German Navy's convoy officers, I believe, so that it was available when a convoy was passing. One such German order quoted by Michael Ginns in "Jersey Occupied" was for Corbière to be lit for 45 minutes.

A lovely video and we'll prescented

Before you get bombarded by angry Jersey beans, it’s technically the Channel Islands, not Isles.

I love Jersey, been many times. Going back in September, first time since before you know what. I'm thinking of visiting Guernsey if we can whilst we are there, do you get a ferry over - probably a silly question! Lovely vlog and learnt some very interesting things, thank you

never been to jersey its now on my list

A wonderful watch! Thank you 😊

lovely!, have a nice vacation! 😁🥰

Es una hermosa isla 🏝️ para soñar hermoso paisaje dónde la naturaleza por si habla ❤❤❤

Hello, I'm currently looking for an unknown song that was recorded around 1984 possibly on BFBS (the person who recorded it can't quite remember the exact radio station, but he says there's a very good chance it was BFBS) that is not identifiable by conventional means (Shazam, google lyrics, etc.). The song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4uyeYyLiruGpMU Since you worked at BFBS at that time, I wonder if you recognize the song, or if you'd be able to redirect me to contacts who might know it. Thank you for your time.

great music

talking head

My great aunt maggie worked here from the 1930s or 20s up to his death or so. He used to every Christmas have her driven up in his rolls Royce to go to Westminster Cathedral as she was a catholic. He also lent her his car for her wedding.

Brilliant. Going to catch up on your videos.....because they are so interesting. Peace and goodwill.

Great tour! Thank you

Really enjoyed watching. My ancestors the Astors owned Hever castle and cliveden house, chiltern hills. Also the village of Hambleden is beautiful, wasn’t the film the witches also made there starring Joan Fountaine 1966

You also forgot the. Good night mister Tom was filmed there

how many pubs please ?

We are lucky to have so many beautiful villages in Great Britain and we should protect them at all cost

been in uae for years now and this brought me right home, awesome vid

My favourite Radiovoice all time! :) Greetings from Germany

Hi Simon, j'ai découvert Hambleden grâce au film de Lucio Fulci « The Black Cat ». Nice village

Very interesting, thank you. I'm thinking of moving to Aylesbury and it's nice to know more about it

Excellent video thanks 😊

Alyesbury … Awful , Dreary place . I remember it grimly from my childhood , especially the fibreglass ducks

That's not France your looking at from rosel, that's the ecrehous!

great video, but you URGENTLY need to trim your nasal hair 🙄🙄

Beautiful! Wished it wasn't such a pain flying! (from Germany)

A Lucy here! On my bucket list to see.

sad to say, but everything looked better 100 years ago! Corporations/the government have hindered Aylesbury.

great documentary, thanks Simon!

I know the story of Shakespeare. I learnt it from my family. It’s very interesting as I have been told that my family aren’t connected with the Charlotte Lucy’s . But my great grandfather was born in London. I was born in Northam in Western Australia. And that little town is on the banks of the Avon River. ..But it’s all so very interesting.

NO PAVEMENTS

Great pub in Hardwick. Used to hVe live bands b4 the covid not sure if they do now

Sorry I couldnt watch the Video any longer as of the awful teeth of Simon.... How can one neglect his health that much

Nice little video. Looking forward to going thru the others, thanks, cheers!

Such an expensive Island to live on let alone visit.

I know it's been 2 years since this video but I wanted to inform you that my great-grandmother was his cousin. I have a tea set of my great-grandmother with the a plate also. Also a pickle jar.

thank you for a great video. i’m off there this week. now i can’t wait. ;)

I been to jersey for 33 years at the same hotel.

Miss the old BFBS (BFG) days!

Hi Simon, After seeing your 2018 video of Lakka we visited in '19. We determined to revisit one day & so we've booked for June 2023 (tip...its a great price at Bastas Complex via Olympic Holidays), this year though its Parga in June. Have you visited other Greek gems since Paxos?

Dear Simon, would you please make another video of Jersey and/or the other Channel Islands? That would be really wonderful! Thank you so much. 😃 Best wishes Monica

What a complete unkept dump

You should put some audiosongs on it!

Thank you for show me Jersey. I think It is a beauty Island.

Thank you so much for an excellent video of Jersey. I was born in St Helier in 1940, and left in 1963 to live in New Zealand and later in South Africa. But I have returned to Jersey on several occasions, my heart lies there. Thank you again Simon for showing the real Jersey🤗🇯🇪

love jersey, thanks great vid
