This was so incredibly relaxing. Margaret should do some ASMR, she has the perfect voice for it! Brilliant video as always!

[@margaretstockton-davies3828]

Thank you so much! You all are strongly making me consider some ASMR as a side gig..!

[@rominaso3700]

Always a pleasure to listen to Ms Margaret's narration and learning so much about the history of London. She has a knack of explaining history divinely interesting!! i would really love to meet Ms Margaret and Sinead in person one day💓 Thank you for sharing this video Margaret and Free travel by foot👣

[@margaretstockton-davies3828]

This was so lovely to read, Romina, thank you. I hope to meet you in person one day, too!

[@ToursbyFootLondon]

We hope we get to see you one day, Romina!

[@robbojax2025]

This is so much better than modern TV documentaries which are over dramatised. The script and editing is very well done. Keep it up Free Tours.

[@ToursbyFootLondon]

Thanks for your continued support, Robbo!

[@melissacoulter708]

Margaret needs to do more videos! When I don’t feel good like right now, her voice plus my favorite thing-HISTORY, is the only thing that makes it bearable! I’ve been a sub since the beginning but rewatch her and Sinead all the time! Obviously the longer videos are my FAV! The castles, this, and the Mag 7!!

[@ToursbyFootLondon]

We love that you are rewatching so much of our content! I (Margaret) hope to have a new video for you all before the end of the year :)

[@Lucatoire]

I'm so pleased we're getting Margaret's insights through the medium of ASMR, I've fallen asleep to the Hampton Court tour several times.

[@margaretstockton-davies3828]

Aw, this made my day - thank you!

[@Emrose93]

Love these videos! The great fire of London has always fascinated me. Nice to actually see the places too. Margaret is so good at her job.

[@margaretstockton-davies3828]

Thank you so much for saying so, Em :) I'm so pleased you enjoyed it!

[@chuckcorris2392]

This show ranks with any BBC or American History show I have seen on the fire. Outstanding job!

[@r.j.powers381]

Pudding Lane - the name alone evokes thoughts of warmth and family and home. That such a catastrophe could have begun here is almost too much to bear. Margaret, I've joked with you in some of your previous tours about "medieval fire extinguishers" but this is much too sad for my glib humour. As always you've brought the past to life with clarity and heart. As we in Canada are going through a terrible period of the worst forest fires in our history it gives us pause to understand the fear and confusion that such conflagration can bring to the past and the present. In Vancouver we can smell the smoke and the skies are clouded changing the sun from yellow to orange. And we are in a safe area. The miracle is how London was able to recover and thrive. The shock was the aid from France, a traditional nemesis in the middle ages. I've always thought someone could write an historical comedy about Calais ("what day is it? Are we British or French today"). And to end your research with all the plaques and memorials was brilliant. Thank you for this most wonderful of tours. I suddenly feel like pudding pie. 😊🎉❤

[@margaretstockton-davies3828]

I have seen the devastation of the fires in Canada on the news. It's absolutely awful. :( I am glad you are keeping safe, despite what sounds like apocalyptic conditions. Seems like France likes to keep us on our toes, right? And I am definitely snatching your idea for the Calais comedy (with due credit given, of course, whenever it becomes an international success)..! Enjoy the pudding pie!

[@valpayne2963]

Excellent video. Beautifully narrated and very informative. I believe Pudding Lane is named not for tasty desserts but for animal entrails and similar nasty bits. Different meaning of the word in those days.

[@margaretstockton-davies3828]

Thanks, Val. And you are absolutely right!

Hi, Awesome live history video I enjoyed it can't wait to see more soon. Your videos are always enjoyable and relaxing. Next time Could you do Hever Castle in England. It's the home of queen Anne Boleyn in Tudor times in the 16th century. How are you doing? I'm doing well. Have a great day greetings from Canada see you next video 😀

Hi Michelle! YES - I am doing Hever Castle in the spring so will likely publish it between May and July :)

Hi and good day, there are papers that show that the city of London Ltd used the fire to replan London and kill off the Black death. This was told to me by a London police officer. But it is a great video, thanks for your time and hard work, please stay safe and happy.
