Tony Robinson Down Under | E3 | The People Are Revolting

[@MorrisDrummond]

Why so few views? This series is a gem! Thank you Tony for another brilliant series!

[@sokar_rostau]

Sir Tony was knighted for his services to history. He's presented hundreds of hours worth of history over the years... and yet this channel consists ENTIRELY of his Australian content (though there's some missing). It's an odd channel to say the least and if it wasn't for those outro's I would say that it is just a bunch of playlists put up by some KZbin rando. I suspect that a proper KZbin search may reveal multiple Tony Robinson channels that either have region-locked content or are designed specifically to be accessed only by particular audiences (Aussie content in Australia with no British content, American content in the US with no British or Australian content, etc.). Another possibility is that these are the only films he has the rights to put up on KZbin in the first place, though that would be very weird given his body of work. Then again, it's not like you cannot find his doco's all over KZbin, so these might be the only ones not up already. I suppose it could simply be an unfinished channel that was abandoned after starting to upload topics alphabetically. Another possible, indeed quite likely (fingers crossed), answer is that this channel is a new venture and the lack of non-Australian content is reflective only of what has been produced so far. Of the three uploaded titles, I've only seen Time Walks on the ABC. Whatever the answer is, this channel has too few sub's and these videos don't have the views they deserve.

I am sharing these wonderful Tony histories with my niece's, they never learned these stories at school! 🧐😂 Up the Irish! 🤯😆

Very interesting - I could listen to you all day Tony Robinson

[@ek7593]

Wow, those there the days. Tough people. Especially for mothers and children - it must have been very hard. Thanks, Sir Tony Robinson!

[@chrisedwards4929]

Thanks Tony. Stumbled across this series ... wonderful stuff. Learning many things perhaps I'd forgotten. Expected Phil Harding to pop up there digging the trenches at Camden Park...really reminded me of your Time Team days.

[@Elitist20]

The military that initially went out to Australia with Phillip were Marines - highly disciplined. But after the colony was set up, most returned home. The NSW ('Rum') Corps that replaced them were nowhere near their standard.

Captain Bligh looks like the great-grandfather of Tony Robinson.

18:50 - the Billy Hunt incident gave us a common saying : "My name's Billy Hunt, NOT Silly C*** !"

[@marionhulspas1391]

Just love tony

[@DouglasChrystall]

Tony this is a great series, so many shows like this never cover a city in any depth. A nice blend for tourists and locals alike. Get a better PR team and don't stop making them.

[@YobboBear]

I just stumbled across this. Tony's asks the question regarding William Parrot's land in Narellan "I wonder what's on his land these days?". The answer is Narellan Town Centre shopping centre. Some streets have changed names since the map, however Coghill St, Elyard St, Hume St, and Hovell St, all still exist. The golf club is on the other side of town on J Scott's land.

[@HistoryTimeTravels]

Haha it's so interesting the history in the land of our modern buildings! 🧐

[@DavidJones-ir3ks]

Wonderful series!

[@shaundaly8202]

thanks mate

[@jenniferharrison8915]

Fascinating, my mother always said John McArthur was her cousin! Tony had a relative at his farm, wow! 😃 Better life in Australia than Shoreditch! 👍 Convicts needed permission to marry, and 🐑💰 bribes! 😪 So much respect for (that other Scot) Lachlan Macquarie, yes he did create Australia, his legacy is everywhere still today! 🫂🤗🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

Not everyone was a violent psychopath... I love it.

"The Australians are revolting!" "No, they're not that bad!"

[@finallyfinally9317]

It was the British back then

[@Thepourdeuxchanson]

2:57 "Flaunt" authority?

[@phillipnoone8044]

Ohhh Tony, you don't look......that bad 🤣

[@jamesking4648]

How come none of the aboriginals tony talks seem very aboriginal

[@James-kv6kb]

He is in the eastern states there are no real ones left there anymore, you need to come to the three western states. Where I live there exactly the same as when they were first found and in some cases that was the late 1970s

[@MrLordSandwich]

Bligh's version of the events of the Rum rebellion is a little different. He claimed He wasn't hiding under his bed but instead he was burning papers/documents in the fireplace.... What actually happened, we will never know for sure.

[@rollmeister]

Tony Robinson is a legend. Most (not all) of his productions are fascinating and well presented. But Tony, no mention of Bryan Martin at Port Arthur?

[@sokar_rostau]

Martin Bryant has no relevance to colonial Australia whatsoever. Considering how much relevant history is left out of this doco (such as no mention of the atrocities of the Second Fleet which brought Macarthur and his family here, something that cannot possibly have had no impact on his life), why should a whackjob like Bryant get a mention?

[@paulwillard9687]

The Irish question has always been about religion Catholic against Protestant, the Irish were fine all the time there was a Catholic monarch in the U.K.
