Great watch.

[@scouseaussie1638]

Fascinating history 👍

[@joewood791]

Great this, what I'd add is for people from outside of Liverpool, or those who have never been, the City is football and it is music and the positive/negative connotations they take from that. But, for the people who have been or those who live in & around it, it's about the characters. The people are the city, everything else is just a bonus.

I first went to Liverpool in 1963 on a training course at the shipping Federation, Mann Island. I always enjoy coming back to visit Liverpool. When you leave Liverpool, Liverpool never leaves you. You always want to go back.

[@girafficparkgaming]

[@Supernorthwest]

Frank! This film was ace, thank you 🙏

[@kevinphillip552]

We visit Liverpool 4 or 5 times a year as we both love it. This has given us more knowledge and ideas of what to do in between our visits to the theatres. The Royal Court being the jewel in the crown of Liverpool theatres. I could go on, Liverpool is not without it's problems but to us, it seems to be a City that is way ahead of any other.
