It's bizarre how the government is allowing this country to go to rot, you'd think they'd be on the side of the property developers but no, they're letting everything collapse.

The problem is these towns are run by councils who dont know what they are doing. The councillors are not qualified or experienced to run a town. We need something like the hotel inspector, a team who know what they are doing to go into the town and advise the councils to get them on the right path.

Biggest thing Great Yarmouth council could do would be to try and funnel more of their limited resources into ensuring a core part of it remains attractive in the way Southend clearly has. Would also be nice to have a companion video of Cromer/Sheringham perhaps. This isn't representative of Norfolk as a whole.

Great Yarmouth has a wonderful beach, pier and promenade. It is let down by a lack of original shops and, not to be unkind, substandard accommodation. People's expectations are higher nowadays but if you are going to pay £60 a night for a room then you shouldn't have mismatched furniture and an outdated bathroom in your hotel room. Local businesses struggle because the council does not invest sufficiently in the town to make it a desirable destination. But I still visit every year because I love the sea and I know these businesses need our custom. Fish and chips are fabulous and there is also a great Vietnamese restaurant. Great Yarmouth could be an absolute jewel.

Poor Great Yarmouth suffered a number of catastrophes. Once one of the great commercial ports of England (amazing surviving architecture here and there). The war did huge damage, the planners finished that off afterwards. The Herring (remember it was massive fishing port) were overfished and went away. Finally, as a holiday destination it struggles with package deals. Yet still, it has possibilities.

I thought they were going to refurbish the winter gardens. Hello from Lowestoft. Me and my kids go to the Fair Freights during the Halloween week. In Yarmouth, and it's awesome.

I am a born & bred Guernsey girl and lived in South Norfolk for 10 years (from 2005 to 2015). I went to Yarmouth a few times over those years and personally didn’t find it that bad. Used to take my daughters to the beach and swimming. Obviously it was never going to be as lovely as our Guernsey beaches but we enjoyed our times there. Possibly Yarmouth has gone downhill in the 9 years I’ve been back in Guernsey. Was interesting to see the puppet man in the video as I used to see him a lot in Norwich when I worked there. Bit of a local legend!

Old bloke was was pretty correct about the Italians & Greek Cypriots when they came a few decades ago. They created great food establishments during Yarmouth's golden years of the seaside and employed many people.

Ive been coming to Yarmouth 65 yearsi still love it.

Grew up in Gorleston on the other side of the river and can honestly say that Great Yarmouth has gone down hill massively in the last fifteen years. I was back on the market place a couple of weeks ago on a Saturday morning for the first time in eight years and could not believe how few people were about and how bad it was. It's a shadow of what it used to be.

When I grew up in the fifties and early sixties, we use to visit relatives in Norwich and going to Yarmouth was the highlight of the holidays. In 1968, I actually worked at a holiday camp there. It's tragic to see these old places run down. I lived near Newquay in Cornwall and my first return visit from Australia after fifty years left me rather 'neutral' on the place. Stayed in great hotel on the cliff tops but even that's gone since we were there in 2014. Padstow was quite the reverse. Use to be a sleepy little fishing village; now look at it. The influence of Rick Stein I believe.

Should have seen it in the 1960s.Such a shame to see a lot of the seaside town going the same way.

I like going to the races at Yarmouth. Harry Ramsden’s for supper afterwards and then home. A good day out.

Really enjoyed this thanks

1:08 This guy, what a legend he is with that attitude!

Our once great nation is in tatters ! And it’s all manufactured by our government !

4 years in England "Sorry Bro". HOW the fuk he manage that much English 😂

I am going to stay for 3 nights in April. I love Yarmouth. Nice beach, great fair, good arcades xx

Put the old guy up for a award for saying what he thinks .

13 years of Tory rule and no one can even afford teeth these days. Very sad state of affairs.

Nothing to do with tory rule. Their main industry is tourism. Air planes had the biggest impact..

@TriviaChallenge no covid did.and Gordon Browns 159Bn defict mess he left the County with, which caused the problems in the Cameron era. OK, the torys fuxked the country with brexit but these towns voted for it. Besides what's the NHS got to with a gradual decline in an industry and a town

@TriviaChallenge what has NHS treatment got to do with the gradual loss of an industry.resulting in the decay of a town. I noticed you forgot about the chineese wuhan virus, which had massively cause back logs or the 159Bn defict Gordon Brown left us with.

Busy in the summer as all UK seaside towns are. It doesn't help that school children can only be taken to these places during holidays since heavy fines are put in place otherwise.

You get fined for taking your kids to the seaside at weekends? Wtf 🤔

We always visit Great Yarmouth in May when the promenade is fresh and clean, it’s beautiful in spring and summer and we’ll continue to stay in Yarmouth as we have for the past 50yrs. I am sorry though, to see what a struggle it has been for its vast community.

Busy during summer holidays near the seafront but past that it’s pretty depressing!

I have lived in Yarmouth for about 3 years now. Love the history of the town (every street seems to have a blue plaque) shame that many of the inhabitants seem unaware of that history and you look at pictures of the town in its heyday and think "what happened?" That said, the locals are all nice, some are a bit rough around the edges but you can hardly blame them for what is the result of years of neglect from politicans etc The sea front is still lovely to walk down (though I tend to walk away from the "golden mile" with all the tacky amusement arcades) and in summer I can think of nowhere else I would rather be, the town really comes to life, fireworks every Wednesday evening, events during the day, the town full of holidaymakers

Sorry to be the breaker of bad news. This year the fireworks in Hemsby and Yarmouth will not be going on unfortunately. The organisation that delivers those firework displays has moved its biggest event of the year to may and everyone involved will be busy organising that.

Saw a video about people finding basements under their houses where they'd been houses in the past and built on and covered up to be discovered with period correct wallpaper and artifacts from over the yrs

Whether or not the old bloke at the start does pay his council tax or not he's right UK is left to rot

Very sad to see this, remembering the days going to Yarmouth and then Cromer in November every other year as kids, even though its off season but still life in the market and no yobs running riots, haven't been there for a while now but I always have fond memories of this once great place.

Haven't been to Great Yarmouth in years but I remember it being pretty run down in the early 2000s, in the 90s it was a lively place with great opportunity, now it's all gone.

Im suprised you found a few folk who actually speak english there!

Overwhelming majority of people in Great Yarmouth are native British people, so why wouldn't they be able to speak English???????

Do you live there? Have you ever been there? It is British white 90 plus percent.

Maybe you should interview the landlords making money out of hmo's and a manager of Bet Fred. They're doing okay. The Tories are behind the deterioration. Manipulating the masses to benefit the few.

Good to see the old boy with the teddys on his hands at 3:00 is still going strong i remember him being there doing that 25 years ago!.

very informative.

I live not far from Gt Yarmouth, in Norwich. It’s really not as bad as made out in this video. The clientele isn’t the best. It does have a reputation amongst us Norfolkers for being a bit downmarket, it is a typical run down seaside town but it’s a good laugh for a day out. And they have put a lot of money into rejuvenating the town centre. It’s far from Knightsbridge, but it’s also far from the odious, baron monstrosity being portrayed in this video

This is looking like many places nowadays very sad. Try birkenhead. Enjoy most of your videos.

Just a fantastic place growing up. I will move back one day.. despite the decline..

I'm a regular visitor to Great Yarmouth of nearly 50 years, it was a great place and in the summer it still is! ❤❤❤
