I went to Peep Peepa a few times and all I spoke to there were friendly and down to earth working class folks. It was not a scary, tough pub as the video title says but was an old fashioned pub that could have been found in dockland areas around the country 40 or 50 years ago. It is sad that pubs like this are shutting down.
