Miserable Public Art of 1990's Hemel Hempstead

[@matthewstevenhunt]

One of the best videos I have ever seen on KZbin. It wouldn't have been nearly as good had you shown just a hint of enthusiasm. I also love the way you did it in monotone.

[@hlashflahflhsjfh]

Every so often I check that this video is still here. Yep. Watching it again.

This is brill. I was born in Hellhole Hempstead and this superb film perfectly sums up what was often miserable about the "Dacorum" town centre. There's no crock of gold to be found at the end of this rainbow. Just some ugly street furniture and Burger King". Classic. This ought to be broadcast on national TV. What ever happened to that Wimpy high up on the ramp?!

[@orangeraver8954]

The people of Dacorum and the wider world need to witness this. Brilliant!

I used to travel to Hemel Hempstead from Wales from 1987 to 1989, so this brought back one or two memories. I used to come here to stay with a family who lived in Pescot Hill in Gadebridge, tow of the girls in that family used to go to Hemel Salvation army when major B Watts was the captain there, good days.

[@NABloisROTH]

[@WeAreQPR1882]

That is very true about the bronze map I'm always forgetting it's there haha. Love the video. Hemel Hempstead is still miserable. It's a shithole actually.

[@GRAHAMAUS]

The mosaic on the car park is by Roland Emmett - he's pretty famous.

[@scottmallord88]

[@bodunchar]

let local companies advertise and sponsor materials for local artists, job done. Energy is better spent on positive rather than its opposite. You reap what you sow, agreed?

[@Pyrafrost]

[@spidermandan2k7]

You know how to make a video morbid !

[@randomvids4kidz]

I live here and the town is not shit this video makes it look like the most crappiest town but its not

[@devilsforkdigital1490]

I grew up there, and I know the maker of the video. It's definitely meant as a joke.

[@randomvids4kidz]

Stop making fun of my fucking town

[@oldhempsteadian]

Well done to get Ken Livingstone to do the voice-over! I presume that "food poison" has topped himself. If not please do not make another film. Probably the best reason for banning amateurs from owning video cameras.

[@Phoonguy]

@1000drakesmith miserable

[@jessicamiller2503]

I live here - and I've got to stick up for my town - this video is bias and totally shit basically.

[@oldhempsteadian]

How sad. Let's hope your amateurish production methods have improved. Come back and do it again properly this year.
