Here in Balham we visit the location of a second world war bomb which created a hole so big that a bus fell into it. Also the famous Du Cane Court which the nazis and and Adolf Hitler wanted to use as their HQ (apparently!).
Then there's the 211 club frequented by The Krays and the miracles of Fatima!!
We see some cool little things you might miss like writing on the wall left over from teh second world war.
The sewing machine museum is a lot of fun and they even have a barrel organ.
There's the Tooting Bec Lido which was the biggest fresh water pool in the UK and then there's the famous Victorian Whodunnit! The murder of Charles Bravo or was it?
It was never solved!
We also go to the Balham Bowls Club and generally enjoy some Balham Banter whilst seeing a lot of stink pipes and the underground river, the Falcon Brook.

I was in the White Eagle Club a few times in the 1980s. I remember the barmaid, who I believe was bought with the club premises at the government auction when the property was sold off as ill gotten proceeds of crime. She was a real bottle blonde 👱‍♀️. I chatted to her. She remembered Ronnie and Reggie. They woz luvvly boyz. They always bought flowers for their mum. Regular gentlemen. Etc etc. I think she may well have been the model (along with countless others across East London especially) for John Cleese in drag in the classic Piranha Brothers sketch. "Ee was a real gentleman. Ee knew ow to treat a female impersonator". Happy days.

I lived in Byrne Road 1980 to 82 or so. It definitely WASN'T gentrified then. On warm Sunday mornings on the steps of the old Victorian tenements the Rastas would congregate, strumming their guitars or playing their ghetto blasters. The Bedford was my local. One morning in 1980 in the newsagent I saw the newspaper headline that John Lennon had been shot. Daytimes were alright but you didn't walk around too much at night. There were stabbings and murders there in the 1980s even. My car was broken into one night.

i grew up here in the 80s. This was a working class area. Then in the 90s the lawyers started moving in. House prices went crazy. My parents bought their 4-bed house for 4.5k in 1970. Now it's worth £1m. If you go to Clapham South you'll see the two round 'turrets', which were used as bomb shelters during the war.
@andybaker2456
@andybaker2456 2 месяца назад
They were the entrances to a huge underground bomb shelter, lined with bunk beds. It was also where many people who came over on the Windrush were temporarily housed when they first arrived. That's why so many of them settled in the area in and around Brixton, as they used to walk from Clapham Common to the labour exchange in Brixton to look for work.

A very interesting area, Joolz. I found that the Balham Underground station incident during WWII was intersting. The sewing machine establishment amazing indeed, and also most fascinating is the sewer pipes still in existence around the district. Lots of other stuff, too much to mention, but many thanks for this most enjoyable film that you've done here.

Mickey Dolenz was my favourite Monkee. That crafts and sewing emporium is fantastic. A reason to go to Balham. To see the Museum as well would be the icing on the cake. That Peter Sellers record came out in the late 1950s. It was on the radio when I was a small kid. It was produced by "the Fifth Beatle" as he became,George Martin.

In the music extracts he'd be playing the guitar,then shaking maracas,then on the piano,then on drums. At the time the idea of Editing was not in my frame of reference! I think the magic thing about The Monkees was that despite being a manufactured band they were actually talented boys all of them in their own right. I heard Peter Tork became a respected Shakespearean actor in the San Francisco theatre world.

Those lovely old tube station signs brought me back to when Shepherds Bush had a station on a line (can't remember whether it was Metropolitan or Central) at the end of Shepherds Bush green near to the Shepherds Bush Hilton (Yeah, I know they like to call it the Kensington Hilton). The décor and ambience was just like the Balham station with old wooden telephone boxes too like you see in old films. I think they ripped it all out for modernity.

We had a stink pipe in Brussels Rd at the top of St John's Hill SW11 but it was definitely not connected to Falcon Brook which ran at the foot of St John's Hill about half a mile away with a clearly defined valley headed south along Northcote Road. Perhaps the regular sewers had them as well? But I remember being told that there would be explosions without them.

There are lots of stink pipes in the whole area. From Brixton, up to Clapham and Tooting are stink pipes. The Effra River used to flow through Brixton (Effra Road is named after it I believe) and you can spot quite a few of these pipes. I'm sure there is one on King's Avenue heading towards Streatham. I lived in Clapham from 1988 to 2014 when I moved to Tulse Hill. Thanks for this video. It was nice to remember those days, especially when my children were very young and we would walk to Tooting Common or Wandsworth Common. Good days...

But odd to say nowadays perfectly respectable,well mannered and "nice" young ladies will actually dress like that to go out of an evening and they've got jobs,maybe in a coffee shop,a garden centre,with a care agency,all sorts and theyd probably be highly offended if some man approached them with a lucrative proposal. I was once waiting at a bus stop with a young woman who was probably totally unaware that her outfit was exactly that of a 1950s Paris prostitute,at least she looked like Michelle of 'Allo Allo and I just thought it was wrong to dress like that,or barely dress then get offended at peoples reactions. This was the middle of the day. I'm sure she was a nice respectable young woman with a job. I wanted to say to her "why are you dressed like a prostitute but I felt that it might cause a scene and she probably wouldn't have a clue what I meant. So I said nothing.

The 1958 Sellers version contained a funny sketch about the El Morocco Tea Room which I have never forgotten for some reason. It's worth checking out the album The Best of Sellers.

Very informative, thanks. I used to spend my school holidays at my Nan’s in Balham in the 60s and 70s. She lived just around the corner from Du Cane Court. We used to go to the library opposite the Bowls Club. I have fond memories of the place, especially Wandsworth Common and Tooting Bec and the Victorian public baths somewhere in Balham where I used to swim. 👍

Great video, I grew up round the corner in Streatham. Moved away in 1980 when I was 13 so it's nice to see the old area.
