Excellent🙏👌🦉❤️

gd it was dreadful in the old Victorian era days.....and kids these days hate when they lose at Call of Duty and don't get their favorite Lunchables and Pop Tarts.

Bless them especially the wee bairns ❤ One Big Love ❤️ Amanda Jane-Free Spirit ❤

I love when you bring Henry Mayhew to us! Also, I don't think it would hurt today's children to be a little bit more tough like their ancestors were.

😢 in my grammar school we had a story telling contest where we’d have to memorize a story and recite it in front of the class and then in front of the school if we won in our class. In second grade my mom selected The Little Matchstick Girl and I actually won the whole darn thing, I think largely because of how moved I was by the story, since she would have been my age or even younger. Weird flex, I know, don’t know why I had to add that I won but I think it’s because it’s such a compelling story that was based on fact

Always my fav time.. fact feast.. xo

I can't imagine how horrible it would be to live in London. Then, or now.

Thanks FF ❤

I love how you don’t whitewash the Victorian era

I’m a huge fan of Mayhew’s writing. I wish every time and place had its own Henry Mayhew to immortalize the stories of the common people.

There are many people who believe that time is an illusion and time travel may well be possible If this prediction is true then imagine such times as this haven’t occurred yet are we all in an eternal loop of hell

You are still risking your life visiting New York, worst now then ever.

My grandfather was a dirt farmer in Oklahoma yet he still wore a 3 piece suit to church every Sunday. And a hat.

Oh yeah.. the Salvation Army... like Tull said... Salvation alamode and a cup of tea

So funny to hear a privileged Victorian male talk about women through the lens of the religion they were taught and the societal norms of their day/class. They were no worse than the men - they were just held to a much higher standard in a time that gave them few ( if any ) choices in life.

Some women did what they had to do to survive - especially the thieves. Different times.

Well, this was quite the day-brightener.

Damn I’m sad it doesn’t exist the street anymore wish it did I wanna see how it look

Let's get drunk

I dunno, ask Jack.

Engels quoted a trade unionist who said, "It is better to be hanged in London than die of natural causes in Manchester"

My new bedtime stories great content 👌

Washington DC has not changed. There are the "Haves" and the "Have Not's". The first are mostly white politicians and career bureaucrats. The second are mostly black laborers or unemployed. There is a wall along New York Ave. which divides 13:01 the two classes and . like most all American cities there is no middle class. Why? Because the cost of living and housing. The rich can afford and the poor are subsidized and they are segregated. The school system is the worst in the country. No member of Congress or the Judiciary, Executive and deep state national security cabal send their children to DC public schools. The poor have no choice because there is no choice in the American system unless you have $$$$

Yep. Sounds pretty crappy. But I've seen worst in San Francisco and Oakland.

I just hope they didn’t get the squirts from the diarrhea epidemic from ‘67! It was a shitty situation🤪

To be honest most Victorian cities were like this. Manchester nowhere near as bad as Liverpool or many cities in Europe and the US.

I notice the 3 card trick is being performed by a chap with a digital watch (6.32)... Manchester must have been very advanced in the Victoria age

All my mum’s side of the family came from Ashton, they were moved North to Bentham during WW2, my mum was only 12 then. Never went back to Manchester. Two of my Great uncles played for Manchester City in the 1920’s. My Grandfather took me to Wembley 1969 F.A. Cup final. City won 1-0 , to this day I still follow City… fortunately having a season ticket.

For all you queen Victoria fans, what do you think about her now knowing this happened under her nose.

Nothing has changed then, we are almost full circle.

A Confedrate Senator over in London in 1862 said we treat our slaves better than you treat your working classes.

please never stop making videos like this, i love it !! especially while napping

ordsall in salford is like this now , absolute shithole, nobody works and all the teenager boys are criminals

all these victorian landlords are rotting in hell now

My family lived in Hoxton Square in the late 50's and early 60's, it was a rented Basement flat of a basement. My dad used to drink in the Red Lion and we sometimes used to have a packet of crisps and a bottle of lemonade outside. We used to go the Petticoat lane and Club Row after church at St Monica's.

'hell on earth' or The greatest improvement in human living to date never forget The peasants in the fields preferred it think on

I'll try not to give specifics because I just don't remember details. Something that many people don't know is that human life had no value at all. A Judge once remarked that it was better for 100 innocent people be hanged than for a single criminal to go unpunished. This was not a metaphor but it was meant in a very literal way. Justice, not entirely unlike today, was for the rich and preveledged , there was no justice for the poor and although most of the preveledged professed Christian values they did not practice them. Life was valueless, poverty was epidemic, and compassion was in short supply. This is during a time in history when England was among the richest countries in the world. In short it was a very bad time to be unwealthy and to a large degree loving your fellow man was a vague concept.

Ok, out of all the interesting things you could have talked about, you chose to spend the first half of the video talking about hair and women not wanting to cut their hair during the booking process? Why? I just don’t understand. Being forced to get a haircut sucks, but you just go on as if this is the worst thing that ever happened inside a Victorian prison.

Your narrative is captivating... please, never go to the AI that so many of these types of historical mini-documentaries use. I truly enjoy your choices of subjects.....❤❤😢😢😢

Imagine how horrified those Victorians would be if we travel back in time and show them mugshots of today's toothless crackheads and tattoo faced gang-bangers that make up most of today's prison population.

Victims of a disgusting system of lack of money

Adventurous travellers know these kinda places still exist. This is an awesome video, great narration too 🧡

Ah, poor Victorians on the streets. And there are no poor devils on the streets of America or the UK today! What is different now to what was then? It's still the same!

Absolute nonsense . Its a kip if ur comparing it today .

😢

The Nile Street Mob was for many years the terror of London .
