I went to Southfork Ranch from the TV show Dallas!

[@jayoneill1533]

Dallas ran from 1978 to 1991. It’s amazing how much the city has changed from the opening credits.

[@catherinegreen7879]

Brilliant video Stephen. I was glued to the TV when Dallas was on.

[@moonagedaydream4489]

Awww, Stevie what a laugh we had while you "perfected" the theme tune. I'm sure I woke the neighbours up with laughing so loud. Having said that you did a great job, your intro was fantastic. Hope you don't get inundated with gifts of Stetsons after this video, yeeha! 😂 Excellent piece of work, I really enjoyed it. By the way you can return Les Dawson's keyboard now 😂 xx

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Moonage xx

[@karenbonner9997]

Loved Dallas back in the day.

[@shawnab8484]

Fresh out of high school I worked at South Fork Ranch back in 2003, I enjoyed it. So much fun! I’m about to go next month to a concert and BBQ fest. It’s literally 10 minutes from my house♥️

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

It’s great to see it doing so well, years after the famous TV show.

[@roberttrull4726]

[@brewsterkits]

[@kevinmott6205]

Hi Stephen. Thats the Les Dawson version of the Dallas theme tune 😂😂😂😂loved it .

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Kevin

[@andrewtamkin2511]

I watched the show back in the Blackpool days , I moved to New York in 1990 and moved to Plano in 1993 . Been here since. Its changed so much but still a good place to live. Greetings from Dallas Texas.

[@steveshakespeare8492]

I use to watch Dallas back in the day, cheers for the tour Steve 😄👏

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

No probs Steve

[@garrisonsgorrillaz1]

I still cant get over getting out of my hire car and immediately seeing you there Stephen.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks pal 🙏

[@kevanhubbard9673]

I use to watch Dallas when I was a kid but I'd guess it's close to forgotten by now.

[@denisepearson5212]

Loved the vlog took me back when my long past dad moaned when me and my mum watched it and loved it but amazing how he sat watching it every episode 😂

[@davidbail944]

Brilliant video. me and the wife never missed a show in the 80s 😂 thanks Stephen 👍

Hi steve great video sf ranch loved this one you never guess watching dallas ive got all the videos great series you were lucky seeing this in real life must be great thier thanks for bring this video great keep them comming steve like hit the light button to this wonderful channel takecare diana

[@Clara-ph7my]

Thank you so much Stephen. I used to watch Dallas in the 70's/80's with my Mum, mainstream TV back then. I did dip out, following the awful Bobby death/dream/shower revival. However I later got hooked on the 2012 series. It was a shame it stopped. Although' S2, was respectful tribute to 'Larry Hagman' as he passed away. JR was Dallas! He knew that also! Watching the Antagonist and Protagonist, constant war between JR and Cliff was Dallas. JR and his hilarious, put downs and one liners are hard to beat. The 'Who Shot JR?' was massive mainstream news. Amazing times! Lovely tour. Thank you for posting.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Glad you enjoyed it.

[@janolaful]

I remember the dream scene it was a bit silly, first time I saw Patrick Duffy he was in the the man from atlans.. and his parents were shot dead in there tavern... Jr's wife was sue-ellen we use to say swelling. Never new they did another series. Thanks for the vlog.

[@kevinmott6205]

I only tuned in now and then to look at Victoria Principal, back in the day. WOOOF! 🥰

[@Grid56]

Yes but she had some peculiar dreams lol😂

[@wendyjones2351]

Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always I used to watch dallas seems like a lifetime away looks really good have a great day xx

Glad you enjoyed it

[@johnthewiz]

Now, thats one place on Earth I'd want to go to. Lucky bugger. LOL

[@davidnm21]

Fascinating video Stephen well done👏🏻. Unfortunately I never watched the show however my parents were avid fans and would never miss an episode. I do remember the “Who Shot JR” episode it had everyone gripped. Beautiful ranch it is too and yes I can understand some of the interior scenes were shot on a sound stage, common in the tv and movie world.

[@pamtamkin]

Loved this video Stephen, I love all of your videos, thank you for all you do. I am originally from Blackpool and now live in Plano TX so this one is especially interesting to me. I am glad that you had a nice time here in Texas. You came at the right time as it gets extremely hot in the summer. Very best wishes. Pam.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Pam.

[@edwardharrington678]

Very good video Stephen. My wife and I were big fans of Dallas when it was on TV and JR always every battle especially against Cliff Barnes. Lol. Well done.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Edward

[@HolyFreakinDragonSlayer]

Never seen Dallas the tv show.. way way before my time. Looks a nice place to visit, glad you had a nice time.

Glad you enjoyed it Hazel

[@sheilakearney4635]

I went to the Southfork ranch back in 1997 when my Sister lived in Dallas, very surprised at how small the house was, always looked huge on the show 😂

[@DavidDunning-m3v]

Loved Dallas nice to c it again lovelly place 👍

[@dianeshepherd7913]

Thanks for the video, good to see southfork i used to watch it, the kitchen seemed small, abd also the entrance hall, the staircase not grand or that big, but maybe it was because it was a ranch, as opposed to a house ? Enjoyed the video and the walk around and information 😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Glad you enjoyed it Diane.

[@benjamindenton]

Patrick Duffy has said that the UK made Dallas big for the rest of the world and at one point the BBC had to skip a week because we were an episode ahead of the US. There was always the threat of it going to ITV as well. Proof that America can make a theme park out of absolutely anything. A shame the Coronation Street attraction didn't last in Blackpool though.

[@mandycoulbeck8692]

love your vlog stephen

[@nigelstringerNVS]

I used to watch that program Stephen, great video.

[@junelaw4162]

Evenin I’ve been waiting for this one 😊there roads look smooth brilliant tour so enjoyed it till the next one 😊

love this video Stephen thank you i was a big fan😊

[@bigprob8744]

Couldn't imagine JR walking along the promenade

[@kevinmott6205]

Oh yea I could Larry Hagman loved the Britain that was. 🤠

[@DavidKidd-ft4xq]

Great video Steve.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks David

[@Christine-xq9ep]

It started off on a Tuesday night, Dallas and Roots, and then everyone went crazy over it and it was moved to prime time slot on Saturday night and absolutely no one could wait to watch it and then everyone was talking about it the next day. Those were the days, everyone watched the same thing. Also mini series like The Thorn Birds. It's just not the same any more xx

[@JulieBilson]

Thanks for sharing Stephen😊

[@TheBorzoilover]

Great video Stephen the house is fabulous, loved Dallas back in the day, there was'nt a remake the new version was of JR's and Bobby's sons and girlfriends etc., i thought it was awful.

[@carolmurray5569]

Hi stephen, thanks for that, not something i watched but heard stuff about it. loved your version of the theme tune, brilliant!!!!!😂😂

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Glad you enjoyed it Carol

[@richardward5386]

Another great video Stephen, thank you for keeping us entertained 😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

My pleasure Richard

[@dav147]

I remember the huge Staircase, curved to the left, nothing like the real interior but fascinating.

[@janobyrne2424]

Thank you for the video Stephen, fancy going all that way and meeting Andrew a fan of your channel! Never got to see much of the programme but I enjoyed the tour round Southfork. The staircase was a bit of a disappointment as you said I thought it was going to be like the one in Gone With the Wind .😊😊😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Jan. They had to play a few tricks to make things look bigger & better than they really were.

[@shirleyburke1571]

Loved dallas back in the day,did not have all these channels we have now,maybe thats why it was a massive hit stephen?

[@martinwebb1681]

Thanks Stephen. I could never stand that show, probably watched two or three episodes at most. But enjoyed your video 👍

[@jayneshaw5247]

Brilliant ❤️👍

[@kevinmott6205]

The bathroom, restroom is done in the Edwardian style known as the guilded era 1901- 1910 but extended longer into George V reign. Think Titanic, big brash, ostentatious. Gaudiness (Bling)and obvious. Think of the same period in Blackpool. ❤Upon your walk in the house it seems to be done in the same style. Hence the expensive lead crystal cut glass on the dining table. I must agree the staircase is less so in terms of impressiveness.

[@Alan..W]

It reminds me of the Graceland tour .... without the rock and roll ...

[@markhead8193]

Thank you!!

[@sarahillingworth2718]

Great video 👍

[@elliemay-y4l]

Just as i thought. You set that cowboy hat off right smart. Take care jolly old chap. Do y'all still say that?

[@kevinmott6205]

The reason why JR was more popular in his role in Dallas, he was very much loved as Major Tony Nelson in i dream of Jeannie. 1965 to 70 i think it was.

[@jennybates]

I remember Kenny Everett parodying Lucy Ewing on his 📺 show.

[@benjamindenton]

Juicy Stewing if I remember.

[@mrtiabrown]

Tis all going at South Fork

[@eileenmclean1274]

I thought JR was shot in his office, not a bedroom??

[@SuperLisalis]

Fame Fame, Fame Stephen. How popular are you !!!!😅

[@JulieBilson]

The remake is alot of bed hopping lol but is awesome Jessie Metcalf from desperate house wives was in it😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

He'll be a hit with the ladies.

[@alisonlaing5626]

I know they used outside of the house etc......but...........did they "Actually" use the inside for filming etc???????????????????????............either way a "fab" show..................now/then..............

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

No filming in the house. It was all done in a studio.

[@returnoftheponderer]

its all kicking off with jr wildside

[@SuperLisalis]

I remember Dallas n the nightmare of *who killed JR* brilliant tv and production.

[@robertboughton11]

Hi Stephen

[@arfabarmcake2776]

Who shot JR ??

[@garytranter2553]

I thought JR was shot at his office

[@davidandrews8963]

BLOODY HELL JEAN MICHEL JARRE ON KEYBOARDS EVERYBODY WATCHED DALLAS AND UT WAS CHRISTIAN WHO SHOT JR ACTRESS MARY CROSBY PLAYED THE PART FROM DAVID CROMER 🌈😊🥂🎸🤘

[@northernengland]

Poles with wires.

[@Stevenh641]

The sequel to Dallas knots landing not much better either. Another series I also hate is dynasty should have never been made

[@nigel8499]

Who shot JR? conspiracy theories are rife.

[@kevinmott6205]

That kitchen is absolute pants . Horrible 🤫

[@davidbail944]

The house ain’t as grand inside as I thought it would be. The interior decor looks very dated

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Not very grand & awful colour schemes.

[@robh699]

Intro music was terrible

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Sack the musician!

[@Stevenh641]

Dallas the tv series I hate big time no plot absolute crap

[@edwardharrington678]

Miserable git.Lol.

[@doomybear7389]

I knew it wasn't Sue Ellen who shot JR, she was always too p**sed to get a good shot in and Bobby was the cleanest person in the show he spent a full year in the shower but then again he was The Man from Atlantis.

[@PlasticGirl65]

I never watched a single episode of Dallas, not my cup of tea. Great video though.
