Kicking off in Blackpool: Naughty goings on👮‍♀️🚓🚨

It was kicking off in Blackpool on Thursday evening as a police chase starts off matters on the prom before I discover gangs of kids up to no good around the derelict central police station.

Great presentation Stephen. Good to see that you recognise trouble around you and steer clear ! Always interesting to hear the history of old buildings and premises long gone. Keep looking after yourself and stay safe.

[@froggiewrench1]

Every vlog from this wonderful town is presented like new. Another fascinating update on the goings on.

[@michaelbrassington7549]

Wherever I am and hear sirens approaching from the distance, I say to myself “it’s kicking off!”

[@rachelshonahague5718]

Same here!😂

[@jasonwilletts559]

Well they always kick off at Bloomfield Road 🤣👍

[@clarea1801]

Me too, needs to be on a t shirt

[@neilgodwin6531]

I moved into my new flat and heard sirens every night. I thought I'd moved into Kick Off Central, then I realised I was just close to the local Blue Light Hub 😊

[@hitman4hire964]

I used to live on trafalgar Road in late 80's my parents owned the lornick hotel. Such a shame seeing it in that state now. The drain pipe is still claret and blue from when my dad painted it in Burnley colours.

[@PianoMan-be8ur]

Why show all the shit in Backpool you can go to any town in the country and find places run down

[@MegaVector2011]

I used to love Blackpool, in the 80's I used to come often when it was a bit more prosperous. Happy memories, all the chippies served very cheap & delicious steak puddings, preferred them to fish & chips. It was when those snake guys used to drape a large Python around your neck and try and charge you for a photo in the rough pubs. The good old days! Great upload. 👍

[@JINNYJANNY]

So much to see in Blackpool thanks Stephen for showing so many places does help when visiting

[@markrowley2739]

I clearly remember the Dr Who exhibition. The theme music was on a loop and they had a Cyberman 'human statue' that would suddenly move and jump out at you 😂

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

I was $hit scared of the Cybermen.

[@stevensmith7460]

They've got to drop and clear them back streets soon. Them buildings are beyond repair and look terrible. Must say you don't get many bad chip shops on the coast as they are all competing with each other. Great video Steve, cheers.

[@dianemckill5708]

Another great one Stephen. I started watching your channel when you put the 'mean streets of Blackpool ' out and watched you ever since . Keep up the good work Stephen and be safe 👍👍 ooo can't wait until July 😄 woohoo 🥳🤚

[@DavidKidd-ft4xq]

Good and interesting video Steve.

Hi Stephen great to see you vlogging the back streets, I really like seeing them! Amazing that the rundown areas are so close to the promenade and the hustle bustle... Great commentary with loads of interesting stuff thrown in! You definitely know the history of Blackpool, thanks for keeping us informed... Until the next one...

[@marycalderbank8998]

Hi Stephen, I was in the Winter Garden's at a show, while you were filming this, so just catching up with you, great video as always, thank you for all you do.

[@andrewsnooks9077]

Nice one Steven enjoyed you're vlog keep them coming mate 👍😁

[@pamelaaustin-fd2zv]

My fave chippy in Blackpool is Lilly's. Thanks for another great one.

[@annwood8847]

Our favorite chip shop is Lily's. Beautiful fish cooked to order. Fabulous. Good portions and always hot. Reasonably priced.

[@clairenurse2378]

Hi Stephen, just watched our vlog! I got some lovely pictures of the sunset on Saturday evening, one of which is my new home page shot.

[@theabandonedhunter3604]

Thanks sir top video as always. Thinking I might do something random and just go up to Blackpool tomorrow for a night. Any decent little B&Bs you might recommend these days? I might just rock up and see what I can find ….Smithy

[@richardwright2431]

Hi Stephen I have read that tram town is closed at the moment due to renovation of the roof on the building.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

It's partially closed. They are still doing tours though.

[@elizabethdonnelly6451]

Beautiful view

Great video Stephen, hope you are doing well.

[@richardhinchliffe1678]

Great video stephen watching from Lanzarote

[@lindanagle5081]

Remember the coach station very well. We once came in at the North Station and we didn't have a clue where we were. The Happy Scots bar was open when I stayed at the Royal Seabank in December.

[@SimonM-63]

Very interesting, Stephen 👍 👍👍

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Simon 👍

[@johnreynolds5361]

Enjoyed the video as always Stephen great work. My favourite chippy in Blackpool is tower fisheries. Great food and pretty cheap as well

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Tower & Yorkshire Fisheries are right up there.

[@susanmills8096]

Hi Stephen, I'm new to this but i would like to say how much i enjoy watching your shows. I love Blackpool and haven't been for a few yrs cos of one thing and another but do hope to visit in the not too distant future and hope to see you about. Take care and keep on doing what you do best. XX

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Much appreciated Susan

[@kevinmott6205]

I remember Dr Who Exhibition funnily enough i mentioned it to Paul on Blackpool Lads. 😊filled the underground toilets near the Castle pub too. 😮

[@stephenmcculley7]

I used to like Fieldings chippy which was in the back streets between South Pier and Pleasure Beach (behind what is now the Velvet Coaster). Sadly they are no longer there now but food was always nice there.

[@hazelmanship7516]

Great view around Blackpool backstreets, keep safe Stephen,thanks 😊x

[@stephenmcculley7]

I believe the Home Bargains has also been a Wyndsors World of Shoes as I remember seeing one of the trams painted in an advert for it about 20 years ago.

[@barbarastanley2986]

Another lovely walk round the srtreets of Blackpool thankyou its all kicking off in Blackpool

[@clairelumb5336]

Great video steve me and partner stayed at dutchman hotel in 2009 with our 4 children till some couple nearly set hotel on fire with a candle so he broke fire alarm to alert people who was staying in the hotel because he smelt smoke i was over road at the time having a cig fire engines pulled and police pulled up and arrested the couple it was absolutely lovely hotel the owners of hotel said thank you and we got free food and drink all day much love to you all from Bradford ❤ ❤

[@georgesmellie8717]

Thanks for another great vlog Stephen i used to frequent the Crazy Scots Bar the front was a Sports Bar and round the corner and downstairs was the Karaoke Bar when my pal was in the darts at the Winter Gardens the Crazy Scot sponsored him i hope you are well

[@michaelsheard-cm2qe]

Its kicking off mate!!!!

[@JohnRidgway-vs5ef]

Wowsers stephen !

[@martinwebb1681]

Thanks, Stephen. Some of them streets do look a bit of a sight, but then in the next street it can look much better, some of the buildings are nice, lots of different styles. Shame that market is no longer there. It always puzzles me at the lack of trees as most seaside fronts are lined with trees etc, but then I suppose that could be a bit problematic for Blackpool having the trams along the seafront as they do, pieces of falling branches and falling leaves would probably just be problematic and become a nuisance.

[@carlbird7878]

And it's all gone quite over where

[@markymarkinthehouse]

sign of the times Stephen lots of places closing down left derelict and magnets for out of control gangs and druggies not just Blackpool I'm afraid the police have lost control and we are to quote genesis great song from the 80s living in the land of confusion men of steel men of power are loosing control by the hour great vid as usual keep safe my man

[@parolof]

Was Blackpool six week ago, saw You on the promenade when on tram

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Nice one.

[@sambuka57]

The Hopton Hotel used to be called the Colosseum Hotel. Used to go to School with a lad who's parents had it. Tyldesley road used to be a premier holiday area with some nice Guest Houses. The area looks sad now especially with the unfinished Foxhall Village housing estate looking like a bomb site.. The Washington Building used be a pub called The Washington, always fights kicking off n the summer untill they changed to Uncle Peter Webster's family bar.

[@davidbail944]

I went into the dr who exhibition in the 70s at Blackpool

[@willjohnson1980]

You should have wore your its all kicking off tee-shirt in this video 😂😂

[@juliepownall1063]

Hi stephen another cool vlog

[@craigtaylor480]

Bloody hell, I remember the tardis. It must have been early 80's. Still got photobooth pics with me and my brother wearing 'I shot jr- cowboy hats.

[@jordanalt]

Is the go karting place still there next to the beach a bit further north? Hoping to go there in august

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Yes it is.

[@andywright3450]

Hi Stephen grear video love the longer videos cheers

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Andy. I'll try to do more.

Omg its always kicking off in blackpool hahahahaha

All kicking off in Blackpool like your top 😊

It's always kicking off somewhere in town.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

The emergency services were quite busy for a Thursday!

[@sallybutler1005]

Stayed at a wonderful caravan park last week - we could see the tower lit up at night it was brilliant.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Amazing!

[@karenbiddle1484]

We were in Blackpool yesterday visiting the new museum which was fantastic, and a police car went past with sirens going and we all said ‘It’s kicking off in Blackpool😀

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

It's got to be said!

[@user-ph6ck9tz1m]

No 13 was that the Truncheon pub😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Pump and...

[@RSstokie]

The building that was knocked down was called the wembley hotel

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks

[@janobyrne2424]

Thanks for the video Stephen started off in true style with, "it all kicking off in Blackpool", you are well and truly back now. Kids are kids all over the country they like to wind the security guards and the police up. Don't understand it really when I was younger I'd better things to do. Gulls are particularly vicious this time of year as they have chicks to feed. 😊😊😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

We were more respectful of the police & security as kids. Youngsters these days are not, because we are too soft on them.

[@nigelstringerNVS]

Our bnb on that street.

[@kevinpirie342]

I don’t know if u are a betting man but there is a horse called Blackpool running today (sat 18th May) at 5.25pm at Navan Also in the race before there’s one called sand castle Just thought it was interesting 😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Came in 3rd. Not bad.

[@kevinmott6205]

6:28 Just a road cannot have been any significant building there for sure. 😮The Happy Scots needs a lick of paint could tell it was a former cinema before you mentioned it. What shame. 😢Awe the chevrons on the building are like a clapper board when making movies. You can see where the blue paint has not covered it.😊

[@SueBarrett-rl1dm]

Great vid stephen I remember dr who with the tardis was in there looking round and felt on hand on my shoulder turned round and was a bloody sea devil god did I jump happy days 😅

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

I think I would have jumped too!

[@Capnclogs]

Oh so thats where Dr who was , remember it well, when did it finish? Cheers Stephen

[@karenbonner9997]

When I was down there was a gang young boys across from Craig y don trying to get a bike off the railings.they ran as soon as police were called

[@racheljohnson9687]

I wonder if they caught up with the ref light jumper 😅😅

[@TinWhistleTV]

If memory serves me right, that empty bit of land was a hotel mate, I think it was knocked down before I moved back to London. Great to see the building work on the tyldesley road is getting done, I remember it being empty land when I lived in princess street. The other empty space with the gate and car on it has the sugar sugar and I want to buy that one and convert the upper space into an apartment for myself mate. wasn't the tyre place a sensory place for kids with autism? The strip bar, timegap bar was called Heaven before closing mate.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

The old lifeboat house was also an arcade for quite a few years.

[@TinWhistleTV]

@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool I didnt know it was an arcade, I use to walk past it alot before leaving blackpool and new it was a place for those with autistic challenges, but thanks for letting me know mate.
