DON'T EVER DO THIS!! Behind the scenes of my Land's End to John O'Groats by bus video.

[@steve-marsh]

There's something about these behind-the-scenes videos, they're so authentic and down to earth, and very watchable! The 56 minutes and 48 seconds flew by, it's not often you can say that! Well done mate, another epic trip, thanks for keeping the camera rolling when I know it'd be the last thing you'd really feel like doing!

[@jarrah1226]

You guys need some more races! 😊

[@PlanesTrainsEverything]

Thanks Steve. The worst case scenario would be "Well that's 56 minutes and 48 seconds of my life I won't get back." Noel Philips did a similar video recently and I mentioned how this type of video helps kill the urban myth that KZbinrs film for 30 min and spend the rest of the day lounging by the pool.

[@achannel-x5n]

Hi steve.

[@kaiasher3083]

🙏🙏🙏

[@Thisthat654]

It would be a great video if you can get a bunch of KZbinrs together and do a race of sorts around the UK, like a scavenger hunt? 😊

[@hanshartfiel6394]

Great video, Scott. I made a note of the coach company's name, Peters Reisen in Wasbek, Germany. Unfortunately I could not make out the coaches registration number. I also took the liberty to send them an email complaining about the driver and pointed out that it is perfectly legal here in the UK to photograph absolutely anything as long as the photographer is in a public place. I did this, of course, in German.

[@haveringpish]

Yeah, the Germans are weird with their privacy, OTT but probably down to all the shit they went through with the National Socialists and later the Stasi, can't have been easy.

[@StuAnderson90]

Scott " I got the city view.. I was hoping for a sea view".. Why do I have Fawlty Towers in my head for.. 😂

[@Caroline604]

Very enjoyable video, thank you. The reason you heard so many Germans in Cornwall was because of Rosamunde Pilcher OBE. A Cornish born author, whose sweeping novels were set in Cornwall. Her novels (which have sold over 60 million copies); were serialised by ZDF, one of the main TV stations. This series is hugely popular Sunday night viewing. The Germans love to see where the series is set. Rosamunde served in the Navy during the second world war. She has a Scottish connection. She married a naval hero (Grahame Pilcher, jute executive) and after the war they settled in Dundee.

[@LocutorBritanico]

The series was dubbed into Spanish and we pretty much binge watched all the episodes when we were locked up in the Coved fiasco over here in Spain.

[@thornton]

Nice concept for a video, the parts that we don’t normally see. I know that feeling :)

[@Raymond-jq2nj]

Oh my. Rest up Scott. I always enjoy your videos. That was awesome. Thank you Scott

[@ghwu893n]

I can't explain it, but the PTE videos are far more satisfying and comforting than any Netflix series or traditional telly documentary. There is something truly wonderful about your uploads and i'm still working my way through them. How about (as some suggestions): "Van (Turkey) to Inverness: The Longest Possible Flixbus Journey", "Spending 3 days on back-to-back low cost airline flights", John O'Groats to Lands End: the long way" (i.e. you fly out/don't go through Britain and get the ferry back from St Marys), " Feel free to nick them!

[@andy1977airdrie]

Really enjoying these "behind the scenes' videos Scott, real eye openers!!! 👍

[@valuetraveler2026]

like the structured approach. That is why you are good at doing what you do

[@sandiandgregh]

I love these videos. I appreciate the planning you put in anyways but this elevates it. Creating captivating content takes a lot of work. Truly, we do appreciate it and love the videos.

[@rogertemple7193]

I always enjoy watching your travels wherever you go have a great week until your next video thank you.🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@robertblechle6365]

Braver man than I. I will say having just been to John O Groats yes touristy , but the walk form there is beautiful

[@parasinthephilippines]

Your indepth knowledge of the travel industry. Combined with your Scotish miser attitude adds to the enjoyment. With the odd Blaire cameo. It makes it a most enjoyable watch. Also Looking forward to Mr Marsh and his pubcrawl in the most remote part of the world.

[@thesc0tsman1]

Anyone get the impression Scott fancied fish & chips? 😂😂

[@dsracoon]

Fish And Chip's!

[@sandrader2889]

That was hectic and great to watch and I can imagine you were asleep right before your head hit the pillow, when you slept in your own bed! Untill the next one, thank you very much!!!

[@LynnB_Ky]

What a great video Scott, you have such stamina! Definitely a thumbs up from us and marks out of 10 .... 11 🥰 well done and thank you for the lovely scenery and views

[@simonwood3638]

I think you did the right thing by flying to Bristol, those CrossCountry trains rarely have enough carriages for the demand. Even with a seat reservation I've had many miserable journeys with them.

[@russmeans]

Wow..the behind the scenes logistics is incredible Scott. Very interesting

[@KeefsCattys]

Thoroughly enjoyed coming along with you Scott. Safe travels

[@hazels27]

4:10 The Young Ones episode “University Challenge” was filmed at Bristol Station and the rest of the series at BBC Bristol and around Bristol

[@eleanorheptinstall5354]

The cafes at Temple Meads are mostly underground in the subway. There is a quiet waiting room on platform 13/14. There is also a Greggs, Spoons and a few other shops/cafes just 1 minute walk from the station, from a secondary entrance

[@elroyvanderley6460]

Wonderful video! Great to have a look behind the scenes!

[@michaelarcher6278]

Also been to Tiree, absolutely lovely place. Went again from Dorset with my brother, his two lovely Spaniels and a Land Rover called Rita .

[@jwoodzman]

👍🏻😊 another awesome video Scott thank you! 😊

[@chnet968]

"The hole in the wall" pub? You have walked a long way. The next time you visit Bristol Temple Meads station and want to have proper place to consume coffee, you can walk outside the side door of the station, then go pass the Meads Reach Bridge or Valentine Bridge, and you'll find some fairly good cafe within minutes of walk.

[@fitzg002]

This is even more interesting than the resulting video already posted, thanks!!!

[@markmcniven2625]

I recently drove from my house in Cumnock to Penzance just purely because I love driving lol. It took me about 11 hours with some stops on the motorway.

[@jackieroe417]

I love these behind the scenes videos! Thank you so much for making this - it was really informative and interesting.

[@l.j.b9863]

Excellent video really enjoyed this one. Your such a genuinely down to earth guy

[@CFAbove]

I love Perth Broxden because it's a 10 minute walk to my house and I can get the bus to pretty much anywhere major in the country.

[@claudiel4660]

I wasn't expecting to see Bristol here! If you're back there again, the bakery is UNDER the station and serves coffee etc. If you take the steps down when you come outside the station, you'll find it but it definitely isn't well signposted. It's called Hart's.

[@CherylelaineRayment]

Great video as always

[@Chronograph71]

When I spent almost a year in the UK in 1994/95, I did some travelling, but I did not travel ENOUGH! So I now travel with you to compensate for that. To catch up in a way! Thank you!

[@garymcgregor7048]

Scott these are just as good as the real video, if not better. Love it 😂😂

[@krismclean6527]

This was amazing Scott. What a punishment on your body and all in the name of You Tube. Watched both videos - I'd love to see Penzance but don't think I'd ever go there (or back) by bus!

[@Alba84-uk8tu]

Scott & Steve, i was in Bristol this weekend and spent 4 hours at ss brunel ship, fantastic time and lovely staff. Steve I went to pieminister after watching your video, was excellent I didn't go for the mothership though. Brunel was some man he is Bristol.

[@jackpompeyboy5799]

It’s out of the city centre because there was a lot of local skepticism around trains when first introduced to Bristol

[@dsracoon]

Funny how England keeps their NIMBY "tradition" strong. Some things never change...

[@Andrew-rd4ig]

That was excellent, but one crazy journey

[@bryan3550]

Dare I say it, Scott, but this video was even more interesting than the "proper" one..! Funny to hear you refer to "trucks" as well as "lorries". A little bit of Australia has stuck! 🤣

Everything about this video was absolutely awesome, incredible and fantastic. I’ve so enjoyed watching this video. Thank You.

St. Mary, Redcliffe is a gorgeous cathedral. The next time you're in Bristol.....You're eggs looked poached. When you got on the bus in Penzance there was someone behind you on the open section wrapping up against a monsoon. Seeing the sign Dangerous Cliffs - I expected a group of violent 1960s singers to come at you!!

[@sylviawitcheecomrie37]

I really enjoy these videos. Wick has never changed. Last time I was at John O Groats it was run down looking and only an expensive cafe open. Glad to see it looks a bit better. I appreciate what you go though to make this content. Cheers Scott

Hi Scott. Personally I loved this more than the original lands end to John o’groats video! It’s all the little bits we never think of that goes into the main video, brilliant!

[@paulc1983]

Hello from Helensburgh just down the road from you. Absolutely love this type of video Scott. Really shows how much work goes into a video. Funny I was thinking while watching the first video, he had to do Paisley down to lands end and back to Paisley again it's basically double the journey. Great video.

[@oober2004]

For future travels, there is a cafe on platform 10 of Bristol Temple Meads, I believe. Or, when you were standing with your back to the station, there are two lovely cafes beneath you built into the arches. Great content as always, cheers scott.

[@alexandrefernandes7447]

When I and my wife have been in Penzance, we've loved Queen Hotel.

[@PaulSlater]

Scott, your Behind the Scenes videos are at least as entertaining and interesting as your ‘real ones’. Please keep doing them. Lands End to John O’Groats is one of those to do journeys and your trip was brilliant. Incidentally, Coffee #1 is a small chain in the South West (think it started in Cardiff actually) that we always used to visit when we lived in Gloucestershire. Way better than the massive multinationals and they used to have tea-cakes the size of dinner plates which were delicious.

[@barbaram5214]

I love these behind the scenes videos, Scott! (I really enjoyed the Lands End to John O’Groats video, too. Lands End is so much more commercialized than when I was there in 1980 but the coast is still gorgeous.)

[@dnsmcbr104]

I've completed now my Public Bus LEJOG I mentioned in a comment in the other video, and honestly, it felt a lot less stressful than yours! Really cool to see this behind the scenes stuff, having recently also killed a bunch of time in bus stations 😆

[@benjaminmack7567]

I cycled Lands End to John O Groat's in 2019, I must admit the getting to and from the start and finish was definitely the most trying part! Also I found John O Groats a great deal preferable to lands end, its touristy but atleast its not so tacky as lands end. That said I also visited Dunnet head which was gorgeous. Cool video thanks for doing these crazy things!

[@ukdavepianoman]

Very enjoyable video. Shows just how much preparation and planning Scott puts into these videos as well as having to watch the budget. As for being told you cannot photograph a German coach, I'm sure Basil Fawlty would have something to say about that. I like the spontaneous element - things not quite going to plan reflects reality.

[@Marcsharp82]

Here's something for next time someone asks you to delete a photo. The second you take a photo it becomes your property, to ask you to delete your photo is illegal as it's destruction of your property. They'd need a court order for permission and that can only be given if they can prove your photo is to be used for malicious purposes. I don't know if that's the law in Germany but it is here.

[@MrTsVideoEmporium]

Thanks for this, both sides of the video were excellent 👌🏻 we are travelling by sleeper to the far north and off to John O' Groats and Orkney so all was of interest, well done on the trip 👍🏻

Please go to the Scilly Isles for us! That would be so interesting to cover the little islands off the UK.

Very much enjoyed that - you do it so I don't have to! Have you considered getting a reusable coffee cup btw? More to pack, I guess, but comes in handy when there isn't a decent cup in the hotel room...

[@christobin8108]

We found the journey really interesting. Thank you for all your effort. We love watching your videos. 3 from New Zealand

[@anthonywarrener1881]

Hello scott. The reason why there are so many Germans here in Cornwall is due to the Rosamund pilchard TV series in Germany based around Cornwall. It's a very popular programme apparently. Kind regards.

[@s125ish]

Usually most Germans go to Scotland in the uk but interesting there is popular places in England they go to

[@westerleighwerek1493]

Funny seeing you on my home turf, Bristol. There should have been a direct cross country to Penzance, possibly not around the time you were travelling? Ironically flying myself to Glasgow in a couple of weeks, then fly back from Edinburgh, see which airport is best!

[@johnclements8534]

There used to be a direct overnight coach from edinbugh via glasgow to penzance national express 336

Excellent video Scott 👍parks of Hamilton buses look nice inside. I was travelling intercity in Germany 10 days ago with 3 separate flixbus bookings, paid less than 40 quid total, very good and all on time, a tip though with flixbus, reserve a seat downstairs and not upstairs 👍 i seen a flixtrain going from stuttgart to frankfurt for 5.99 euro on the website crazy cheap 🙂

..2 trains to Inverness - one at 06.18 and the other at 08.02 - as well as the 12.34 and 16.00..

[@JessicaRainbow]

I think the reason you didn't get free food and drink on the GWR train is because they only serve it on trains to/from London. Your train would probably have originated in Bristol or Cardiff

[@edwinlkenny6373]

Wonderful. and informative. I'm sure Scott is bursting with ideas for new videos but I would like to issue him with a challenge! To take a train journey that no longer exists! (well the path of one anyway on a bus) i think it could be actually three different videos starting at the folk and transport museum in Belfast and learning why they pulled up a lot of northern irelands railway system, heading to Fermanagh via Augher Clougher and five mile town along the torn up railway path stopping off for coffee and a visit at the five mile town library railway museum, then onward to Enniskillen and a railway museum in a barbor shop! The next video is the island challenge in Fermanagh to see how many islands he can visit in one day i.e Devenish, Inishmac saint by water taxi and tour speedboat or the Kestral MK4and Boa by ferry and overnight an island hotel in one day and then back to Dublin airport via Belleek and the highpoints, starway to heaven ! but he better be quick to organize it , I see Steve Marsh reads his comments! lol

[@ohheyitskevinc]

I do enjoy these behind the scenes videos Scott! I was wondering how you got to Lands End in the first place, so this answers it :)
