Behind The Scenes At Audley End House With Maddie Moate

[@CFinch360]

She's so delightfully enthusiastic, made me feel how I would be just as excited if I ever got to visit there. Loved it!

[@Liofa73]

She's a presenter on BBC kids TV, has her own YT channel too.

[@TheAgeofFabulous]

Audley End is on my list of things to do when I come home to the UK!! And I agree, please cast a Lord and Lady Baybrooke!

[@justmokey2731]

i would love for them to cast a Lord and Lady Baybrook! i would even feel more emersed if they did that!

[@josiptito9412]

you guys really do pick the best hosts for these kinds of short documentaries!

[@Lianel402]

Josip Tito I definitely agree with you! It makes for delightful viewing.

[@guestuser1671]

They are taking really good care of Audley End House, it's rare an old house still feels so ALIVE.

[@TheBarFaery]

So its come to this, I can't read or hear the words Audley End without thinking first and foremost of the Queen Mrs Crocombe and second of her greatest fan, KZbin and artist Bernadette Banner :P

[@raraavis7782]

I wanne meet Lord and Lady Braybrooke already! Make it happen! Please?

[@reginasulistya233]

Up

[@sitas9827]

Yes, please!

[@censusgary]

I think they died about a century ago.

[@sitas9827]

@@censusgary Sorry to break it to you, but Mrs. Crocombe isn't alive either! This channel does reenactments of these characters who lived in the Audley End house years ago :)

[@Dead_in__side__]

Yes plz!

[@censusgary]

It’s good to see a TV presenter wearing sensible shoes.

[@BeagleLove13]

And not dressed like a colour blind clown.

[@maleahlock]

Omg. Yes! That was my first thought.

[@blissgirl9052]

I'd love a full documentary on this place. I live across the pond, and I'm not sure I'd ever make it to this fantastic house. But I'd sure enjoy the heck out of an hour and a half doc! These snippets just leave me wanting more.

[@henrikh.4843]

Gosh I love Audley End House, its such a beautiful house. I can't imagine all the family history in that house and grounds, the celebrations the family life the everyday life. I only wish to go back in time and just get a peak of the life at past times at Audley End House. Thank you for posting this, we want more :) Oh and I was so hopping for mrs Crocombe to say hello to us :) Love her too :)

[@RWMoortgat]

Love the host! She's so friendly and her smile is infectious!

[@angienuthead]

We love Maddie in this house, great video!

[@Figgatella]

I love the way Maddie scrunches up her nose when she smiles. So cute!😉

[@missbutterlie]

Omg she is adorable!!! I love her excitement and enthusiasm! I would feel the same way if i had the opportunity to go there!

[@melissasaint3283]

This was so wonderful. It makes me want to save every penny andtry to visit more than ever

[@hollyjoywoe]

I just love the enthusiasm of this host

[@KindnessMatters-uy8mq]

I enjoyed this tour so much. Thank you for sharing and your enthusiasm. Blessings to all that work so hard. 🌻💛🌻💛🌻💛🌻💛🌻

Fascinating as always! So glad the otter was a pet. Wish I could visit. Thanks EH!🇬🇧😥😍🐾🦇🎃🍁💐

[@adenuristiqomah984]

Absolutely love her dress! It suits her and the way it is flowing just complements all the ambience

[@robnewman6101]

My parents and I went to visit Audley End House today. It was a wet day for most of the day. We still had a good time.

[@corvuscorone7735]

I love Audley End sooooo much! The orchard and kitchen gardens, the kitchen (as awesome as the ones in Brodsworth Hall) and the dairy and laundry building, and I could spend hours and hours with the cabinets and collection.

[@Jess-nc4oy]

Maddie is such a natural presenter.

[@SiansBookcases]

Must go back to Audley House. It's simply beautiful.

[@Spankypenguin1]

I've only just realised how close I live to Audley End House, less than 50 miles so definitely worth a day out.

[@melissasaint3283]

You lucky dog!

[@healinggrounds19]

You must visit it!!!❤

[@Tina06019]

I think I speak for all of us: we are envious!

[@lurking_silhouette5802]

I'm in love with the curator's voice and accent.

[@suzettekath9860]

Everytime I see a old to ancient place. Makes me wonder how many hidden/concealed doors to hidden rooms within the walls of a given place.

[@elainemarsh3008]

We will visit before Christmas (as members) as it is a lovely house practically on our doorstep. Love the 'cloud' hedge that is growing at the front of the house, a marvel to behold.

[@Anne--Marie]

The aerial views are quite stunning. Does one get a sense of splendor during a tour?

[@danielleking262]

Wow, this would truly be a magical wondrous place to visit!!! ❤️✨✨

[@I_am_Lauren]

American curator and archivist here. LOVE this video!

[@travelingchaos4609]

Her energy is awesome. This was such a great video.

[@melissasaint3283]

You know, it might be very fun to one day have a housemaid show us, say, the routine for cleaning the bedrooms or washing the floors.

[@rachelball1174]

Thank you for this. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit this past summer, and hope to return.

[@danielathorweger2404]

We have been there in spring, it's our favourite place cared for by English Heritage. Besides Tintagel, Brodsworth Hall and Brougham Castle 😂

[@annjones3672]

I would love to visit! I don't think Mrs. Crocombe would appreciate people wandering around her kitchen though.

[@christinemeleg7012]

You are most correct! Mrs Crocombe and staff work hard to keep,it spotless and cook proper British food for the Lord and Lady of Audley End and fellow staff. I myself would greatly disapprove of all those muddy shoes and boots in the kitchen!

[@FrugalOverFifty]

I'd love to visit with my children. So lovely!

[@miriamdruyan]

English Heritage, why do you think you have to convince us to visit? Ohhh, this is for the people who never saw Mrs C's videos. Carry on then.

[@christinemeleg7012]

How wonderfully kept up, the gardens are testament to Edgar Ashman, the kitchen to Mrs Crocombe, wipe your shoes please and no dirty fingers on the kitchen counters!

[@rugosetexture2716]

That was delightful in every way. Thanks a million!

[@rococo-reinette]

This was absolutely delightful! Audley End looks enchanting. I dearly hope I get to visit someday.

[@nepenthe1446]

I’m enjoying these videos very much. I was lead here by Bernadette Banner’s KZbin channel and look forward to your uploads. Keep up the good work!

[@CharmEng89]

Maddie is a fantastic host (have seen her elsewhere!) and now I really, really want to visit! Pity I am 10,000 miles away... ToT

[@alexiatr]

They went to Mrs Crocombe kitchen and didn't wash their hands🙀

[@danielleking262]

They didn't make or touch any food though, so...... No need? lol

[@Jane-gt6ef]

A really charming place! Hoping one day to visit.

[@heyodi3092]

How cool would it be to have 2 different restaurants here? One where you could experience a ‘servant’s meal’ and another where you could eat like a guest of the house, very formal. I’d fly to England just for that.

[@victorthevictorian]

Would love to visit someday! This place looks so lovely and I also really want to meet the one and only Mrs. Crocombe 🤭 Greetings from Germany 💞

[@paustinheaton]

What a delightful visit! Almost like being there.

[@Tatiana-jt9hd]

[@peterk7931]

I was confused for a moment and was trying to imagine what odd wildlife brought BBC Earth Unplugged to Audley End. Nope, just one of my favorite presenters doing good work.

[@stitch62603]

I feel like they used Audley End in the Downton Abby movie. The house itself is simply beautiful.

[@RikDog91]

No they use Highclere Castle, but it would suit it

[@stitch62603]

@@RikDog91 I know Highclere was used as Dowton itself however the other houses the characters visited in the movie, one looked like Audley End.

[@brandyb2931]

To have grown up in a home like that....

[@robnewman6101]

Newgate Prison was a prison at the corner of Newgate Street and Old Bailey Street just inside the City of London, England, originally at the site of Newgate, a gate in the Roman London Wall. Built in the 12th century and demolished in 1904, the prison was extended and rebuilt many times, and remained in use for over 700 years, from 1188 to 1902.

[@robnewman6101]

In the late 18th century, executions by hanging were moved here from the Tyburn gallows. These took place on the public street in front of the prison, drawing crowds until 1868, when they were moved into the prison. For much of its history, a succession of criminal courtrooms were attached to the prison, commonly referred to as the "Old Bailey". The present Old Bailey (officially, Central Criminal Court) now occupies much of the site of the prison.

[@robnewman6101]

The Georgian Era spans the years from 1714 to 1837, covering the reigns of George I, II, III and IV, as well as that of William IV. It was an era of great social, political and cultural changes.

[@monaj2971]

I thought for sure I would get to see Mrs. Crocombe 😀

[@baddie1shoe]

I really resent her energy.

[@idraote]

Personally I don't like the mansion very much, but the grounds are absolutely lovely, so green and lush and ... large.

[@Anne--Marie]

If you are in the states, a trip to the mansions in Newport, Rhode Island is in order. They are lovely to see, but really do lack the warmth that is found at Audley End. The contrast is striking, but I have not visited Audley End in person.

[@trojanette8345]

When so many 'manor houses' fell out of favor or went the way of disrepair how is it that Audley End House survived? How did it get the 2nd 1/2 of its name: "End"? 5:40 -- I don't think I completely understand. So, are you saying that the flat 'grass' area is actually a covered over lake? Please explain further. Interesting that the 'gathering' room was called a saloon. In America that's a 19th bar to us. I would have thought that the gathering room or saloon would have been called a salon. Thank for sharing a great video. It puts a lot of things in perspective.

[@DodiTov]

First point, a saloon is the English pronunciation for the French word salon. Indeed, once you take the alcohol away, the American saloon was/is a gathering spot for community much as a family gathers in the "living room". At that point in time, the French and the English were at odds with one another, so the English would use "French" with an English twist. At 5:40, it isn't clear, but there is a river running through the grounds. The previous owner widened it into a fake lake without damming up the river. Landscaping does strange things like that. The "gentle rolling hills" were NOT all that gentle until the grass was planted in a garden plan. And finally; the "end" designation of an English manor simply designated that it was the end of the road, much like a cul-de-sac or "circle" in American subdivision street names. It doesn't have anything to do with the history of the house, it's merely a geography "thing."

[@trojanette8345]

[@mabdub]

Dear Maddie, you wave your arms about so often I can't help wondering if you end up hitting a lot of people. If it's caffeine that's pushing you over the edge perhaps you should consider giving it up. I mean, your burlesque movements are really offputting; they don't read enthusiasm or cuteness, they are a genuine distraction. Why not try poise, there will definitely be less chance of you accidentally breaking something. I'm not trying to hurt your feelings, I'm being honest and hopefully helpful.
