They are greatly appreciated. I can't wait for 'smell-a-vision' to be invented for all those treats you showed us. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

And sampled food from all the food stalls they make me feel hungry & the Mulled Wine Boot was very German Festive, I think they say Skoll not cheers in Germany. It's a very warming drink I love Mulled Wine it make my cheeks all warm & red! Feels alot like Christmas now after seeing all those Christmas Trees & Decorations! Christmas 🎄 Bar looked fun!

My gran used to take us to Brum in 60's (bus fare 12½p return for her, 6p return each for us!). I remember seeing "the Black Church", St. Martin's and thinking it was the Devil's Church. Then I went back a few years ago, stood by Selfridges (the building with the metal discs covering the outside) on a new terrace, looking down on an unfamiliar Church, freshly cleaned sandstone, beautiful blue clock with gold numbers and hands, and realised with a shock that this was the Black Church of my childhood, with the centuries of soot and dirt and exhaust emissions scrubbed away. The old Bull Ring is gone, thank goodness, and a new shopping centre, a tram network and the rebuilt and magnificent New Street Station dominates an open, busy piazza. Stand up comics will still mock Brum as ugly, but they haven't been there.....

I just took a look at a video somebody has posted of the one in Manchester this year, the huts looked like garden sheds, the places to drink looked like pub tables, it was just dark and dingy and the ice rink looked like it was in a large marquee.

I stayed in that Britannia hotel early 2020. 2 overriding memories were the heat (it would have been March when I was there so cold outside and I distinctly remember arriving in a big coat and scarf. It must easily have been 25-30+ in the room, insanely hot. The other was the automatic traffic bollards on the street (shown in your video just before you stop to show the hotel). These give a very loud audible message, every single time, 24/7. That was already audible through the closed window but due to the aforementioned heat we needed the window open and yep, barely slept a wink! Only other recollections were that it was, as you see in other similar hotels in your videos, kind of depressing seeing what was obviously once an extremely grand hotel in such a poor state. Don't remember much about the condition of the room which probably means it was at least ok. Also on the plus side it was very cheap, something like £20 and that was booking on the day/night (we only ended up there due to loss of water at home and decided to stay in town than treck home to a waterless house).

A brilliant Christmas atmosphere at this Birmingham market, from what you've shown on this video. I bet there won't be anything anywhere else in Britain as good as this, and with the grand fair there as well. So colorful and atmospheric. A great presentation, thank you.

Loved this video Tim. Patrick and I have visited the xmas markets in Munich, Nuremburg, Regensburg and Strasbourg over the past few years on our trips back to Europe. They all know how to do xmas Markets. We love them. This one in Birmingham looks fantastic Tim.

The reason the Birmingham Christmas Market is fantastic is because it is run by Frankfurt City council in conjunction with Birmingham City Council

Great video. The market does look pretty at night and it's nice to see people out and about. The flying swings I'll have to go visit lol. My only issue is it's just very expensive now. £7 for a sausage .... 😅

Great video! I live 10 min walk from the Christmas market, see it every day and it still amazes me nice it is. Although you did miss the market on St. Phillips Square which is only round the corner from new street

I'm from Birmingham, I live in Bournemouth so I've been to the Christmas markets in both towns numerous times, I've also been to Winchesters. All have their own plus points, Bournemouth's is beautiful with the gardens all lit up, Winchesters is in the Cathedral close and all that history gives it a wonderful feel but for sheer scale and the detail of the buildings erected for the market Birmingham's is outstanding.

We have a small Christmas Market in Uxbridge, but usually all just food, which I can't see the point of as there are enough place selling food. It looks like this one is similar but bigger and it does look nice.

Loved this video! ....I went on one of those giant swing things, and I'm not usually scared of heights and it didn't look that bad from the ground, but my gosh, it scares the life out of me! Was soo much higher than I realised 🤣🙈 mine didn't even have anything to hold onto either.....I will never go on on again 😅
