Great to see and hear you back on KZbin, Sinead. I agree what you say about Fitzrovia. How I imagine village life in London. How I wish Soho looks but doesn't. Michael Bentine is pronounced Ben-teen. Also, Dylan Thomas - the H is silent.

[@lukeyznaga7627]

always enjoy your walking tours. there is so much to see in England. Lots of history and great culture, and even great food. What with the "replacement" royals of the original family, [soon, there will be a young king ], one has to find pleasure in the rest of England. you still look fabulous and you have a great knowledge and presentation . by the way, your other business partners are also good at giving tours.

Good to see you Sinead and a great video. I love Fitzrovia and worked on Tavistock Square in the late 2000s, so know the area very well. I used to work in the art deco Adelphi building in John Adam Street off The Strand! Apparently the BT Tower has been sold and will be converted to a hotel. Before you got to Queen Charlotte St and lovely gardens if you look up at the houses you can see where they were repaired from bomb damage in WW2, expect the gardens had houses once. It’s such a great area to visit with so much history and character. Bedford Square is lovely, another Street which was my favourite was Marchmont Street where Carry On actor Kenneth Williams lived. Have definitely learnt a lot more from your video and look forward to your next one.

The Fitzroy Tavern in Charlotte street which gave its name to this area was a great pub until it had a soulless makeover, it was always busy and on a Friday I went in advance of my colleagues to hold a standing place it was so packed. I spent much too much money in there, but had some great times.

Hi Sinead, I really enjoy your videos. I’ve just returned from a long-anticipated week in our wonderful London, I was in heaven just wandering the streets exploring the history.

Fed my soul also in that wonderful week!

Thank you Sinead for yet another great tour. Just to ask, where do people who live in these large georgian houses park their cars, there are obviously no attached garages and the street parking is very limited. I have often wondered.

Parking in London is a nightmare! Some will have permits that allow them to park on local streets.

The Post Office Tower, the most visible secret building ever built, it was not marked on the London A-Z nor did it have a postal address or a postcode when first opened as a telecoms centre. Has recently been sold and the new owners want to turn it into a Hotel, if planning granted we may have a return of the revolving restaurant.
