Love your videos Joolz. Truly some of the best content on KZbin. I’ve forwarded regularly to a friend who drives for a very famous actor. And not a lot of people know that! Have you ever ‘done’ Kilburn/Willesden? Too far out? It’d be good to know something of the history while some of the buildings are still there. Just wanted to say thank you .

[@BrianPW1]

Another great video. Delighted to hear about the forthcoming 'Music Hall' film. I contacted you last year about this very subject. My grandfather was a 'Music Hall Comedian/Actor/Mimic' who travelled throughout UK (born 1870 nr Bristol married my London born grandmother in Islington). His local spots were = Finsbury Park Empire and Collins (Islington Green). On the bill with all the known acts of the day inc Chaplin and played for Fred Karno's troupe too. Hackney Empire still stands and worth a visit and also Wiltons.

Eric Gill slept with his sister, and also defiled his children and his dog. The statue he created on the front of the BBC Building in London was recently damaged by a protester. The BBc have been asked to remove it numerous times, they still refuse. When he was creating it above the entrance doors he wore a smock with no underclothes. The secretaries were told not to look up when they entered the building. The BBc also has other pieces of his work, so no surprise they protected Jimmy Saville, Stewart Hall, Rolf Harris and I wonder how many others. This is just one reason i handed in our licence and only watch youtube etc. No need for the BBc propaganda when excellent content like this is available, Thank you Jools.

The box on the pillar box is for additional mailbags to be left for postmen. It coincides with the closing of the majority of post office counters sub-post offices, which were the main points to have bags dropped. They are now redundant as the post is now all van based.

As a person born and brought up in Bow, I feel the need to put Joolz right on a couple of bits of pronunciation. To East Enders Coborn Road is pronounced Cobern not Co-born and Tredegar was never pronounced in the Welsh way, it was Tredd-iger. As most of us have moved away nowadays, maybe these names are said differently now, but that’s how we always pronounced them. Great video,

The graveyard off Mile End is one of the most unique places in London. Got lost once taking a shortcut cycling through. Very eerie at night 😱

[@carolefreeman2544]

My great grandfather, was buried in the Cemetery in Mile End near the railway tracks. Unfortunately, during WW2, a bomb which was aimed at the railway ended up landing on his grave where it destroyed his grave.

[@Forest_Knight]

Great video! There used to be so many breweries in and around Bow because the water mills were close by. Some of them like the Three Mills (totally worth a visit) and St. Thomas's Mill (later Pudding Mill) were there from the 12th-13th century. The Stratford Langthorne Abbey (aka West Ham Abby) owned a whole lot of them and supplied bread to the City of London and was so important it was even excluded from paying the levy on bringing goods to the city.

So enjoyed this - just found your postings. I was the pharmacist in St Clements in 1969 when it was a psychiatric hospital. It was also a drug addiction unit and I used to hand out measured doses of methadone through a tiny hatch to people on addiction treatment programmes. Used to explore the history of Bow and it was great to see again some of the places. Thank you.

Another great factoid Jules, my grandfather was born in Stepney 1889, he went to music Hall, loved music and was self taught competent pianist, he said outside the music halls were fruit and vegetable sellers selling cabbages cauliflowers and fruit, patrons used to buy these to throw at the performers on stage, they were all rotted produce, once thrown at the hapless souls at the end of the night, the sellers would then collect them up to again sell the next day for the same purpose, rotted cabbage smack in the face

People of the Abyss by Jack London is an amazing read with an enlightening look at what it was like for the poor in the East End of London in Victorian times. My Dad’s side of the family lived in Mile End on Maplin St., in the mid 1800’s, till they moved to West Ham’s Canning Town Area where my Dad was born in 1925. His home on Hermit Rd was bombed twice during WW2.

Awesome! Right at the beginning you mention Colchester! I was born in a small town near Colchester called Braintree! lol There’s a third little town called Witham and those 3 towns are connected by location and there’s a bus that goes through those 3 towns in a sort of circle. It travels from Witham to Colchester then on to Braintree it then returns to Witham and goes round again lol. After we moved to America my Nana used to send us the newspaper called “The Braintree and Witham Times” once a week if I remember right lol its been quite a few years lol There’s a castle in Colchester that’s been there since before the Normans showed up and you can see where the Normans added onto it. Anyway there’s a big English oak tree next to the castle that’s been there for hundreds of years. I have photos of family members next to that tree going back to the time of the first cameras in the 1800’s and a painting of two of my ancestors from the time before cameras. So we have photos of my parents next to that tree and my grandparents and my great grandparents and my great great grandparents and on and on all the way back to the time of the painting. This year when I go to visit I’ll have my photo taken there. Then I’ll get one of my son and his wife and then my grandson! That’ll make something like 10 or 11 generations by that same tree lol. Cheers

I like your trousers, Julian. The East End looks more attractive now. When I lived in Mile End it was quite a poor & depressed sort of an area, but in a way I felt privileged to be able to see how people lived there, compared to where I had trained in Friern Hospital, New Southgate in the north of London.

[@davesansom2944]

Born and bred in the east end, went to school in Stepney and worked in Mile End hospital for 5 years. When I worked there workhouse building in the video was being used as a store and had a very eerie atmosphere and was rumoured to be haunted . My grandfather was on leave from the Royal Marines when the V1 hit the bridge both he and my grandmother were in the street heading towards the bridge when the rocket hit, fortunately they weren’t caught in the blast.

[@eleanorbirchellhughes]

I lived in the Bow Quarter (Bryant and May factory) in the early 1990's when they were still converting sections of the old factory. The flat's were supposed to be "New York loft style apartments" they were quite spacious but I wouldn't call them luxury, well not back then. It was quite bleak with one whole wing still empty and waiting to be developed, and walking around at night gave me the creeps. We bought our flat for £96,000 in 1992 and instantly went into negative equity, I bet they sell for a lot more than that now! Also did you know that there is a musical called (very imaginatively) "The matchgirls" based on the events that took place there? Thanks for such a brilliant video Joolz.

[@missj.d9187]

I was born there and lived in the 70's and 80's and I can honestly say back then it was filled with such beautiful people. Everybody helped everyone out despite having very little themselves. We only had one homeless person who slept down Roman road who was always woke up to a cooked breakfast and dinner and invited in by everyone for a Sunday Dinner and for Christmas. I was heartbroken when we moved in the 90's due to the terrible violence but it changed so much. We lived on top of a pub so it was a target. I come alive whenever I visit there and only just worked out why. Apparently for the past 300 years my family both on my paternal and maternal side lived there sometimes even on the same street without ever knowing. We lived on a street that 2 relatives had lived on over a hundred years ago and didn't have a clue. The place has such a strong pull for me. I must say despite having so many wonderful educational places you showed like Queen Marys I didn't know one local child encouraged to go. We didn't even really know the places existed oddly enough. Forgive the trip down memory lane but you featured 2 of my old streets so couldn't resist. Thank you for the upload!

Glad to see more videos. Love everything about the tour and also the music, they just go so well together. Thanks Joolz!

Hi Jules, yet another interesting video. You mentioned your passion for canals, the first house I lived in was in Tentelow Lane, Southall and we had the Grand Union Canal at the bottom of the garden and I remember sitting on the banks fishing and watching the barges go by. I was amused to see the photo of Gandhi with Cockney folk was outside Kingsley Hall and as you mentioned Ben Kingsley played him in the movie. At the end you mentioned the ghost in the pub that flushed the toilets while ladies were on them - it reminds of when I was at Grammar School we used to watch for someone to enter a stall and then would reach over the top from the adjacent one and pull the chain - one of the little things that made school life tolerable. Thanks for all you videos, they are always entertaining and much looked forward to

[@cliffgisby1278]

I have been watching Joolz now for quite some time, seen every post, probably the most interesting guides of all time. He genuinely deserves his spot on “Strictly” I live 70 miles away in Dover and my daughter lives in London and sees him occasionally.

[@lotsofstuff9645]

If I can make a request, my 2 favourite things that London has are great food and museums. Can you do an episode of either Londons best foods, or most obscure museums?

[@Joolzguides]

I do cover a lot of obscure museums. I could make a compilation I suppose. It's hard to visit them all in one video as it takes too long.

[@GildaLee27]

Check out Joolz' channel page. He's made videos including visits to several interesting little London museums. If memory serves, he went to the old doctors' museum where they keep unusual medical specimens, and to one of Charles Dickens' London homes now a museum where they keep his writing desk and other things he owned. As for the food reviews, just find another channel. He doesn't seem that interested in making videos of himself eating for some reason.

[@lotsofstuff9645]

Or, I recently just found out that I have a second cousin from Essex. How about an episode from Essex? (If it’s not too much to ask for a London tour guide to venture out there)

Kingsley Hall was named after Kingsley Lester, the brother of Doris and Muriel Lester who founded Kingsley Hall & who had died in his twenties. Her book It Occurred to Me gives something of an overview of the life the two sisters had in Bow. Muriel was a Christian pacifist who visited Gandhi and invited him to stay with her when she learned he was coming to London. I believe she introduced him to Chaplin. As Travelling Secretary for the Fellowship of Reconciliation she was in China just after the Rape of Nanking. Her papers can be found at the Bishopsgate Institute.

[@sterlingmoose9335]

Nice that you are starting to cover some of the areas I know. I worked at Silvermans for a bit about 37 years ago, I used to cycle from Forest Gate and then after work I'd cycle to my other job at MacDonalds in East Ham. I'm sure I went over the flyover a couple of times. They never had a proper shop front then, sales were out of a small office in the warehouse type building you show briefly in the video. I also remember passing Poplar Public Baths when Dad used to drive us into London.

The box on the back of the post box was used to put bags of mail in. someone would drop off bags full of mail and as you get to the box you'd put your empty bag in and take the full one till you reach the next box.

[@markmiwurdz202]

When I was growing up in the East End, we used to call that bridge over the River Lea at Bow "Stinkhouse Bridge". There must have been an abbatoir/glue factory/? along the riverside. The strong odours would even come into the buses as we went to the shops at Stratford! The double decker buses did not go over the flyover which was relatively new back in those days. I seem to remember that there were bus stops at road level alongside the flyover in both directions. There used to be a pub at the westbound side of the Bow road - just past the roundabout, called "The Bombay Grab". It was in front of those blocks of flats that Joolz walked past. Wonder how that ale shop got it's name? Great work as always Joolz. Stay safe and well.

[@heathercutler6659]

The smell was well know, and I think you'll find was the old Yardley perfume factory on the other side.

This took me back to my childhood. We lived in Stepney and I went to Raines Foundation School for Girls. Local grammar school. There was a boy’s school next door. I was a patient once at the Mile End Hospital and also went to various productions at the People’s Palace as a teenager. One of my best friend’s dad ran the Whitechapel Art Gallery. They showed very early and important works of art like Rothko and Pollock.Good memories.

I'm portuguese and I was a postgrad student at Queen Mary from 1992 to 1997. The Mile End Road was home. I can only imagine how expensive it now is the flat I rented then for £110 per week. It's been more than 20 years since I last visited the place again. It's nice to revisit it through this video. You briefly show Albert Stern House, just next door to Mile End Place, which is student accommodation. The house's backyard is, literally, the old Sephardic Cemetery! :) Cheers!
