really don't understand why some people make it seem like Coventry is a hell pit it's really nice here for the most part, there's alot of things to do, the people are really nice for the most part There's been lots of improvements even in just the one year I've been here

Brought up in Cov. Love it still.

lovely city

Grew up there, good place, i agree Combe abbey is very nice. Now live in Carmarthenshire, also a great place to live.

I'm from Cov..like most places if you know where to go great vibe.

I was born in Coventry from 1964 -2002 I Went Coundon infant/junior then Coundon court schools. From leaving school I worked In a varied field of work furniture shop food shop PARKSIDE garage Warwick road and post office and then community transport and finally a taxi driver /private hire driver. Loved that some great cars were built there like Jaguar Triumph and Singer Humber were my father worked for 32 years.. We lived close to Jaguar factory with the WEDGE and just down the road Holyhead road where Alvis factory was my mum worked there some years prior to having me and my sister across the road was Carbodies the famous London taxi. So much was made in and around Coventry I remember In geography doing social Geography I learned so much And as car factories vanished New buildings would appear like out of town shopping. I believe the best bit was Standard / Triumph as the streets around that area were called by the cars produced there like Dolomite way and Herald Close Vanguards way But to name a few. Great video thank you

No mention of Naul's MIll Park, my favourite park in Coventry, and no mention of the Canal Basin and the walk alongside the canal. In fact you missed lots of interesting things to see and do in the Coventry area, like Brandon Marsh nature reserve and Wyken Slough.

Amazing city? 😆 😆 😆

I live here and it’s boring

This seems very selective; mainly showing the medieval stuff. Earlier today I watched another tour of the centre of Coventry and it looked an absolute concrete dump! It was like looking at a third world ghetto. Very thuggish and unsafe looking place, which I am sure the council probably describes as 'vibrant' and 'cosmopolitan'. The people walking past the camera seemed to have no manners or consideration. Just............unsavoury.
