@@aquilarossa5191 I went to Penwortham too! I think it was 1970-1971. My first teacher was Mr. Cole, who would eat whole oranges in a single gulp. My second teacher was Mrs. Loganathan. It was a pretty rough school but they excelled at chess.

On Thursday night we were planning our day trip to London. I said to my husband, what if we bump into Joolz, he said no way, do you know how big London is?? And we laughed. We couldn’t get parked in Brent Cross, took us ages to find a space. Missed two tube trains, finally getting on one. So we’re sitting there and this tall fella gets on. It was Joolz. And sat next to my son. Talk about surreal. Our boy is so chuffed that he met you Joolz, and we are too. Thanks for all your brilliant content, we always thoroughly enjoy! And this one is no exception! Very interesting! 😁😁😁

Unreal history in this video, whole course of human history changed in a London pub

Lubetkin also designed Finsbury Health Centre which is still in use. The borough of Finsbury was a progressive working class borough which now comes under the London Borough of Islington.

Thanks to all of you for keeping history alive

Those poor oppressed revolutionaries, exiled, and forced to live in Bloomsbury !!! Hardly the working East End ???! Who paid for that ?? As usual Joolz,excellent and informative. Thanks.

Thanks, Joolz ~ Fall Of Eagles series from the 1970’s was an excellent history of Lenin and his cohorts in London.

A lot of Brits don't really like London, but its rich history is second to none and every time I watch Joolz I learn more.

Another brilliant work. Just when I think you can't outdo yourself. Growing up in the USSR there were a lot of things we were not aware of about this guy's activities abroad. The role of Trotsky and 'men'shevics', for example was completely altered in history books for many decades to come. A great lesson about politics of politics for future generations if you ask me.

I love the theatre scenes in this one. Simon looks just the part! A wonderful episode, thanks for making and sharing!

King George V (the present Queen's grandfather), the Kaiser and NIcholas II were first cousins. Toward the end of the 1st world war, the Hohenzollern (German) dynasty began to collapse along with the Austrian Emperor who lost his throne. George V was very concerned about losing his own throne and about his German connections, which is why the Royal Family's name was changed to 'Windsor and why he did not allow his beloved cousin Nicky to come to London as he thought the move would have been seen as unpopular and could have destabilised the British throne.

I had the good fortune to meet Joolz in October. First, he is wonderful and gracious, second, he is super friendly, and third, he is WAYYYYYY taller that you expect. I am 6 feet tall and he towered above me! Thanks Joolz for all your content and for indulging me in a stupid selfie!

Спасибо за видео, отличная история. Вы и Маргарита отличные рассказчики👌

Ahh a Sunday treat from the excellent Joolzy. I'm actually moving back to London in a few weeks, can't wait to go to a few of these pubs. I'm sure you are inundated with video suggestions, but you really excel with historical knowledge of pubs. 6 part series, 6 pubs an ep each ep set in a different part of town recounting the events/patrons etc.....I don't see how the BBC could turn that idea down [i've seen the rest of their content!]. Anyway, as I'm moving to Primrose Hill, I'll leave a drink behind the bar for you at the Engineer to say thanks for all the great content!

I enjoyed this. As an EFL teacher I do use some of these videos for 'inspiration' as reference material. This would be a bit long to use during a lesson though students can watch themselves and question during in a session. Keep up the good work.

Another fascinating video, great nod to Python. Really enjoyed the tour and content. Thanks Joolz.

I live in Saint Petersburg and across the road from me is the house Lenin's future wife stayed and one of Lenin's multitude of residences is a also just a couple of buildings away. Lenin arrived at Finland Station from exile and a statue marks this, but I can't help hearing the Pet Shop Boys West End Girls when I pass it, which namechecks the station.

Well done Joolz, your vids are always interesting but this one is a bit special as it also incorporated Grays Inn, Clerkenwell, and The Angel Islington, my old stomping ground back in the 60s when I was an apprentice, loved it then. Thanks for the memories ( good title for a song ). Looking forward to the next.

Scotland Yard may have seen these Russians as a threat, but I read a story once about the 5th Congress (or was it the 4th!). Some East End lads were apparently harassing these revolutionaries as they entered the building for their meetings. The Revolutionaries complained to the local police, and the next day a London bobby was sent down to the outside door of the building where they were meeting - not to keep a check on these Russian revolutionaries - Lenin/Stalin/Trotsky etc, but to make sure that they could go about their business without being cat-called or assaulted by the local troublemakers! How British is that - we sent a copper down to thse revolutionaries, not to make life more difficult, but the make sure they are not hassled.

Hi Joolz. Excellent video as always. You raised the question what is a Pindar: Pindars were the guys that collected, kept and guarded the sheep and or cattle in an enclosed usually walled area overnight. Many villages still have streets or areas know as Pindars gate or Pindar street.

Stalin always reminds me of Ronnie Kray, they both had those dead, shark like eyes and didn't mind hurting and killing people who crossed them.

Loved this. Soo interesting! I feel I might need to watch it again to try and remember it all.
