Cromer is a lovely place. Dan and I have visited the town several times and have always had such fun. North Norfolk is one of our happy places. 😺
Cromer is my favourite. Lovely to see you and Helen together, different vibes.... loved it x
You were about 100 yards from an original Banksy. He did it on the sea wall. Still there. I saw it 5 weeks ago. Glad you enjoyed Cromer. lovely place.
Last time I was in Cromer was 1987. Its changed quite a bit since. That tides place on the pier was never there. It was my dad's favourite place to go, sadly he passed away in 1997 and I've been wanting to go back but could never pluck up the courage to go as it would remind me of him. Maybe one day.

Hiya James and Helen its lovely seeing you both and you have taken us to yet another lovely seaside place..... Loved it Helen when you brought out your Salt/Pepper shaker the ladies were so impressed as you seasoned your crab sandwich 🥪 you are always so nice and friendly with everyone and i do hope the man with the fish wasnt been rude to you when you asked him wht fish was it i hope James is right and he doesn't speak English .... OMG those Fish and Chips looked so yummy and loved it James when you fed the pigeons loved it when you said i,ll feed them because thy living creatures and needed feeding i would do the same ...I didnt like the naughty boy chasing them 😮Honestly i love watching ❤you both ..,. Take Care ...,😊😊

Hi?Helen and James , I absolutely love watching your videos, every night! Actually, where did you get your salt n pepper shaker from,please? Xx
Helen is such a friendly girl i love how shes everyones friends, good to see u back girl, great vlog both of u
Been to Cromer once for work, loved it! Got there on a Sunday afternoon swearing like no tomorrow because I’m driving 4 hours for work the next day, fell in love with the place. Top video guys and brought back some memories from a couple of years ago or more. You two are great together I can see how much you love each other and each others company…. Smithy

Thanks Smithy, it really is lovely
That was great James as especially when Helens with you
I spent many childhood holidays at Sheringham and Cromer! There used to be a lovely crab shop at the east end of the beach, near the pub on the sea front. 22:20, that's the one!! Great to see Hellybobs back, she cracks me up, bless her.
Love Cromer. Enjoy.
Enjoyed this one very much. Great to see Helen and such a change in you James from your jaunt up Scotland.. Many thanks.
Gorgeous Helen
One of the happiest couples on KZread
Love that you went to Cromer! I love it in the autumn and winter too. And yes, that pub, The Red Lion is really lovely - save it for next time 😉 The coastline is wonderful - to Sheringham and beyond!! All different types of landscapes. Really worth exploring. Excited to see what you make of Norwich - the Cathedral, the Lanes, the Market... and the foooood! What's not to like! Great video. Thank you!
Yeah it was worth it..I love that wave sound on those pebbles Helen 😘🥰😍
I have a purse with three little tubs of..1 Himalayan salt 2 organic black pepper 3 organic chilli 🌶️ turmeric and mixed herbs …but we don’t eat out..due to organic diet cooked in organic butter/coconut oil/ or extra virgin olive oil …it’s for pic nics ..on an organic farm egg etc x x x
Glad to see you in my home county , wish I knew you were gonna be in Norwich I’d of love to of met you both.
Really enjoyed this video, you two were at your very best together, so lovely to see you both happy and enjoying life. The race up the steps was so funny - like a pair of teenagers on holiday with their parents !! And the kid with the pigeons was pure comedy gold ! Love Cromer but it always seems much nearer to me in Essex on the map than it does trying to drive there without a motorway anywhere in Norfolk ! You picked the right chippy alright, it's a good area for fish n chips North Norfolk, can't go too far wrong. "No:1" was opened by one of those celebrity TV chefs I know nothing about but I tried them once and they were very good too, just more 'modern' and a bit pricier, aimed at more 'upmarket' visitors I feel ..." see you in Norwich" !
Not sure if you've been to Essex area much, but I think you guys would love Harwich. It surprised me, so atmospheric, full of character, excellent pubs, esp The Alma. Dutch influence shows in some of architecture
Trust me mate. We live in Norwich and in the summer you go to Cromer to cool down lol 😂
Found the joy of Cromer about 4 years ago and return every year from Durham. Come with coach tour and stay at Hotel de Paris opposite the pier.
I only know of Cromer due to Alan Partridge …so funny. Then a Viking event …burning a Viking boat on the beach …came up. So me and my youngest son drove there and stayed in a youth hostel the night…but it wasn’t near there ..I couldn’t find this part 😢 I really wanted to see this pier too. Well I can now through you two x x x
You come alive when you're with Helen mate...🥰 You clearly love each other. My Auntie Sharon lives in Cromer. She moved up there from South East London, where we all come from, about 40 years ago, and liked it so much...shes stayed. I went there for a day with my kids about 40 years ago, but it was pishing down and we just sat on a bench in the town square like drowned rats for half an hour, eating lunch, and then left. So that has always clouded my judgement about the place since then. But watching your little tour...I can see why my Auntie settled there. It DOES remind me of a few places actually... Like a combination of Walton on the Naze (Essex...near Clacton)...and Deal...down here in Kent. I like places like that...which are... "Unassuming" 😊 You know? Not shouting. Just gentle...and old...and meandering. Another enjoyable video..."Jaelen" (...your combined new name! 😂).

Lovely to see that your near. Hope you enjoy Norwich. Next time you visit Norfolk, give Wells next to sea a visit. X
Cromer is the jewel in the crown of North Norfolk, beautiful place and so traditional, one of the nicest seaside towns in the UK, absolutely love the place, thanks for sharing guys ❤️👍
Love you guys - always make me smile 😊
The red lion is a lovely pub and there’s some great beer and good people there, I was praying for that vulture to come! I love kids but couldn’t eat a whole one 🤣
Great filming guys, Hi James & Helen really enjoyed Cromer, it's a lovely destination isn't it ❤ Annie & Dale . Norfolk is a beautiful place , Lots of other places to visit near 🎉🎉
Love Cromer, you got the sun and you and Helen are the best double act 😊
Helen star of the show 100%❤
"I don't think bookshop makes good content" promptly shows a rear view of Helen. At least we know where your loyalty lies ;) ...... thanks for the content from an old Aussie.
We ain't been to Cromer since our girls were about 11 and 12 now one's 41 and ones 43 jeez how time races by, it looks nicer than I remember it, you can't beat that sea air down ya lungs ! Good video both 👌
This vlog is very dear to my heart as a lad growing up i used to look so forward to the Leicester july fortnight and we would as a family stay at East Runton on the gap caravan site then walk up the hill to Cromer sometimes lol along the beach then you have sherringham about 2 miles the other way thanks guys for bringing such wonderful memories back ❤

Your interaction with each other is fabulous in this vlog, it were a good 'en! The John Shutterworh in James was omnipresent and Helen never fails to disappoint! Don't worry so much about what is professional You Tubing, just be yourselves! Too much structure can take away from the uniqueness of your comedy double act! 😂❤
Think we need a Helen award for Charity shop of year.
Been away in the sun for a few weeks and great to start catch up with Cromer. Used to take the kids there a lot back in the 80's and although its changed a little it stil holds that charm of the seaside.
My family and myself always used to go there ...... crabbing of the pier was the best ..... crab meat is so wonderful x
Somebody once told me, if you get a crab pissed, they walk forwards 😂

Good one! Good old Cromer! 😄 Helen was talking about fossils. Just west of Cromer is Sheringham, one of the best places in the UK to find them! (along the foot of the cliffs on the beach) Looking forward to seeing what you think of Norwich. The other place in East Anglia you would probably like a lot is Bury St Edmunds (do a bit of research on that one!)
This is more like it - somewhere we've never been. Nice looking place, Cromer . 😀👍+1
Cromer looks worth a visit thanks! Ta James & Helen.Just back from Haworth North Yorks lovely also. 😎🤩

Incredible video, i had time off watching others as focusing on my projects for my channel but tonight few glasses of wine and catch-up ln your videos
I think that fish was a Bullhuss, a member of the Dog fish family. The angler might be a bit nonchalant as Bullhuss have very rough skin that can cause cuts, so it's a bit of a wrestle
Cromer looks amazing. £9.00 for a pint and a half! Think I've been away from the UK longer than I thought. Good to see Helen back and bossing the vlog. ☺️🇬🇷

That's a lesser spotted catfish or more commonly known as a dog fish Helen, a member of the shark family. Angler here 👋 we arent all as ignorant as that bloke on the pier
What a lovely day you both had …. I was laughing out loud when you were racing up those steps 🤣😂🤣😂 Helen you were a brave woman if that had been me I’d have wet me knickers 🤣😂🤣😂 You both are such a tonic and making so many happy memories together 🥰😎
Lovely video good park up with a nice view. Enjoyed seeing round Cromer and the pebble beach ⛱️. Looking forward to next video. 👌

We love Cromer, and quite often stay the night where you’ve parked without any problem. We noticed when we were there mayday weekend they’ve put height barriers in all the car parks😬 As for fish & chips - Wills plaice down the road in East Runton are our favourites. Look forward to the Norwich vlog. 😎
I could watch those waves all day.
Love cromer and sheringham nice to see you back Helen.
You two are so good together and fun to watch .really pleased you both loved cromer as my girlfriend and have been there a few times and we love it there .norwich is awesome and there are so many brilliant pubs to try there including a trapist beer pub called the belgium monk
Hi james and helen its nice to see cromer i have been there many years ago. Brings back memories nice to see england as i migrated to austraiia 53 years ago ❤❤😄😄
Sound of the waves is great, wish i could smell them aswell. Brilliant vlog.
When I was stationed on GITMO we had these land crabs that would run around. One day, one got in the clinic somehow and was walking up and down the hallway with his claws doing the pinching motion, we took the broom to it. James, you might like New England style clam chowder, give it a try sometime. Now that you've been to Cromer you can come back again and try those spots you missed out on. Thanks you two for showing us around, I always enjoy a Helen and James Show. I loved the sound of the waves coming onto the rocks, I could fall asleep to it. Sweet dreams you two.

Cheers guys.👍😉
Thank you for the upload guys, love Cromer ❤
Cromer is awesome , thanks for sharing as always

Nice to see you both again I enjoy your banter I go to cromer on business a lot as I'm a salesman
Looks like a real lovely place there. Good to see you two guys. ✌️
great watching you both, easy on the eye and fun to watch make us both laugh very captivating ...........
Great video, I live close to Cromer! Lovely that youve explored it 😀 Your vlogs are always so enjoyable.
I love Cromer x
Love love norfolk was in our campa there last year that coast is the best ,get your chips and fish best I've ever had big thick fish crunchy batter proper thick chipsxxxx❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great vlog, love Cromer. Chose well with Mary Jane's we've used it and both sets of parents sadly no longer with us did as well Good luck with Helen in Norwich! A superb market. Stay safe and thanks
Great vlog, so lovely to see Cromer, I haven’t been for a few years but have been going up to Norfolk since I was little. Nice to see Mary Jane’s, I recommended it to you on Instagram when you posted the picture the other day, I’ve eaten there SO many times. As an aside with regard to crab, it’s the brown meat that tastes strong, the white meat is milder and to my mind more palatable. Hope you enjoy Norwich too, a beautiful city.

That fisherman was sooo rude to Helen !
Went there in the eighties.bought back memories 😊
Getting closer to my area! Many day trips to Cromer as a youngster....
Went there a few weeks ago, we rented a flat nr where Dorothy was parked. It was a cold wind then .
Ahh did you not visit the lifeboat station at the end of the pier? Well worth a visit and it’s free. We like No 1 for fish n chips but eat in the restaurant upstairs the menu is more comprehensive. Sheringham is also worth a visit while you’re in the area. We live not to far away in Briston and love the area, plenty of places to go visit.
Love both Norwich and Cromer, plenty of cracking pubs in Norwich, usually get down at least once a year for a couple of weeks, 🍻🍻🍻
1:10 I have a photo of me and my mum sat on these benches from a few years back.. nice place
