[@daviddavies4453]

Stephen it’s always kickin off in Blackpool. Never a dull moment.

[@stephenwood9104]

Stephen you really are very proactive in getting major stories around Blackpool out on your channel so quickly, it's a credit to you for keeping all of us up to date with these kind of incidents and myself and my fellow subscribers really appreciate your hard work and sheer dedication, much appreciated 👍

Thanks Stephen

[@bredaquirke7362]

Thanks for the news story Steve, that's the 2nd fire they've had before it's been opened, hopefully it's not a bad omen. Hopefully that little cafe and other small businesses nearby will do well from all the office workers. A construction worker in St Anne's one night told me its normal for all the lights to be left on while the building is under construction for security reasons. Xxx

[@markcurzon4567]

This is the 2nd times you have reporter this building on your video Stephen love the video keep up the good work Stephen 👍

[@Peter-i1f]

Evening Stephen trusting no body was hurt in the incident today. The Fire Brigade do a grand job, throughly enjoyed this video. At last the sun was shining, hope it lasts.

[@DavidKidd-ft4xq]

Stephen thank you for that, the main man of Blackpool.

[@sarahillingworth2718]

Stephen is a great person to talk to and have a good conversation with, sounds like he has a good singing voice too.. hope no one got hurt in the building 👍

Hi Stephen never a dull moment in Blackpool I hope there isn’t much damage in the new building ❤

[@johnmartin7182]

another excellent content awesome stuff

[@mikefisher9895]

The new DWP building reminds me of an old 1800 century factory building great content Stephen 👍

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

I doubt it will get listed status in the future!

[@andrewclarke6672]

​@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpoollisting more likely lol

[@SteveNail]

Perhaps orange netting flapping about lol.

[@WarrenTheSpark]

Need to get the fire alarm installers on asap at that rate

[@MichelleMartin-ld6zg]

Evening Stephen great video 📹 thanks for showing us round blackpool again from Michelle in Nottingham 😊😅😂

[@carlfreeman2524]

2nd fire while in construction is that an omen for the new build

[@doomybear7389]

I bet that café has done well with the construction going on and it will carry on doing so when the DWP opens, I recon the new DWP building isn't that bad really it's colours matches old 1905 ish buildings so matches the area, In Bristol we have some old Bonded Warehouses use for the cities archives as they're build like a brick ****house's being bonded buildings and the ground floor is black brick and the other 8 floors is red brick but unfortunately they've been spoilt by irritating taggers. every one's a effing Bankski.

Hello✋👍. We arewatching you form Central Asia.

Hello Central Asia 😊

[@Gail-30]

All kicking off in Blackpool hope all ok stay safe

[@hazelmanship7516]

Great vlog Stephen glad all was ok at the big offices, will look lovely when it's planted up around it. Are you out tonight,it's a bright moon and very clear crisp sky. Take care bye for now 😊x

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Hazel. Yes, I did a bit of stargazing.

[@lornaburgess9762]

Nice work Stephen.

[@georgesmellie8717]

Thanks again Stephen for the update i hope you are well

[@HoratioChinn]

Maybe someone saw some orange fabric flapping in the wind and thought it was a fire and raised the alarm. No, I can't believe something like that ever would happen !!

[@cannonfodder6654]

The council looking after themselves with that building while all around it its falling to pieces and run down

[@X-GamerPro-HD]

Glad the sun was out today I got up at 10:00am and went to the park. If we’re only going to get one day of sun a month, I have to make it last got my drone up around the park too… Let’s hope for a couple more days of sunshine. ☀️

[@tonyadams9347]

Is that the second fire at the DWP office ?😊😊

[@anthonyfeeney1210]

Looks good

[@lou4tea]

I used to work in a building like that in birkenhead the old land registry office which is now the university of chester i like the style of the outside of it though that drawing on the wall looked abit like me after a morning coffee lol ❤️😊👍

[@stephendavenport1414]

Oh dear. The building didn't burn down. It's a very large building for a town the size of Blackpool. Are they expecting a large influx of applications? Maybe asylum seekers that have had their application approved.

[@richardbarber8023]

Now days we call it a over top sensitive alarm but still have to attend

[@macrook1961]

Well the surprise visitor to Blackpool airport turned out to be a single Red Arrow.

[@AmyBun]

the long awaited return of the orange tarpaulin 😂

[@johnnymac26]

Somebody burnt the toast lol

[@richardbarber8023]

It is a full call out shout for training purposes (to smoke in a building fast response )2 Breathing apparatus crew with a jet (hose) to response of smoke in building. We will never commit a crew of firefighters to building till we have at least another truck/crew on site to back up the breathing apparatus crew that will enter the building. To check the call and for personal reported

[@janobyrne2424]

Thanks for the video Stephen fire in a new build wonder if it was started by an electrical fault then. Just glad it didn't spread and everyone got out. It's a big modern flat roofed building I much prefer the old builds more character. 😊😊😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

It'll probably have a sprinkler system up & running when it opens.

[@marklucas1947]

DWP they are helpful,I found .

[@streetlife8461]

Are you sure the the Fire Brigade hadn't stopped for Fish & Chips after returning from a job ? Lol 😂

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

They have some good choices on Topping Street!

[@X-GamerPro-HD]

Yorkshire fisheries are the best around. Sad part is they’re up for sale soon. I’ve known them for over 10 years 😢 I think they’ll have a hard time selling it because it’s going for almost a million pounds.

[@streetlife8461]

@@X-GamerPro-HD That's loose change to Stephen and the MacMaster ! lol 😂

[@DavidDunning-m3v]

Hi Stephen thx for up date😂

[@rosemariesmith349]

Unbelievable how big the building is for DWP , are they expecting lots off work most have to apply on line 😔

[@theprintguide3610]

Hmmm...no sign of fire but all the firefighters are suspiciously parked right in front of a cafe. Connection? :-)

[@jonsmith233]

They got no car park for the staff they want them all to either cycle or use public transport but as someone said half the staff don’t even live in Blackpool so the small car parks around topping street will get busy

[@martinwebb1681]

Thanks Stephen. The building design is a bit gruesome, a bit of an eyesore, but funny enough I think the colour is kind of nice, Well against the blue sky at least, might not be so nice when it's overcast. They can afford to leave the lights on all hours while many people are struggling to pay energy bills, a bit unnecessary if you ask me.

[@macrook1961]

Good evening Ste , do you know anything about the RAF plane landing at Blackpool airport ? Tuesday at 09.00am from RAF Waddington ?

[@macrook1961]

Heard on the grapevine it could be a submarine hunter.

[@spms3018]

Was there not a previous incident in this building

[@racheljohnson9687]

The fire alarm went off at work yesterday because some mantainance was being done & it set the fire alarms in the factory off 😅 that's the second fire in this building before it's even opened 😮😂

[@ChrisEvans-sy5me]

Fire in a new building a very bad omen, beware if you ever work there 😮

[@jayewaters3921]

2nd fire at that building ...somthing dodgy going on there

[@ashleycunliffe6158]

Hope all is ok

[@Cat_Hurder]

Isnt that the second fire ? i seem to recall that they had one when it was being built, i might be wrong.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Yes, on the roof

[@dianemckill5708]

Was there a fire there before. I think they have to evacuate everyone if the alarm is sounded , hopefully it'll be a false alarm. Now you know where your tax goes to,pay the Lecky bill for that building.

[@DavidDunning-g6s]

Hope everybody was ok😮

[@Tink888]

It’s a hideous building that blocks out the light for the other businesses around there and sticks out like a sore thumb, does not fit in with the area at all.

[@juliepownall1063]

A real fire oh god no new office building too

[@Dean_DJB94]

Where do those planes come from is the real question.

[@juliankaye8143]

Wasn’t the same building on fire a couple of weeks ago?

[@JacobSedman-wn7ih]

No a few weeks ago it was an hotel fire

[@juliankaye8143]

@@JacobSedman-wn7ih I think this one aswell as the hotel.

[@elizabethdonnelly6451]

Hi Stephen

[@callumdunnachie5843]

Thanks for letting me know Glenn.

[@TinWhistleTV]

DWP building insbt having the best start is or? Isn't it the second time they fire brigade has had to visit the premises? When it comes to the parking, I wouldn't be surprised if most the staff wont be local and head backc out of blackpool via the train station. Hehe

[@junelaw4162]

Evening Ooowa Cookson Street 😂 movin on wonder what’s happening it all kickin off in Blackpool wowsers 😂😂😂definatly an ugly monstosity till the next one 😊

[@linndrumfan1959]

On a side note, the new building looks pretty good. 👍 A shame it's going to be used by the horrible and uncaring DWP!!

[@SusanStanton-qt3nj]

Your right Stephen,its an ugly building same with the trees that they have planted

[@juliepownall1063]

False alarm stephen

[@andrewclarke6672]

2nd fire that building has had not even fully open yet Nice to see taxpayers money well spent 😂

[@kaybee2930]

All new buildings these days are a cheap & nasty blot on the landscape. Hope everyone is OK 👍

[@darren9501]

How many DWP staff will work in this over 7 Floors 😮 created jobs or transfer there waste of our taxpayers money

[@terrysvideoscilton3976]

I like the videos but stop saying The word Blackpool 15 to 20 times

[@peterkelly9540]

The building is awful.

[@AndyBeez]

At night, this building is lit up like a Christmas tree. And when they're paying the electricity bill with other people's money, blazing the lights like a grow house is not their problem. At the _Department of Weed Production_ 🤣🪴 5:58 A Bonksy original.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

They'd make a fortune using it as a grow house.
