So sorry Paul, and thank you for sharing. It's important that watch people understand the risks, particularly in the UK where the combination of degradation of policing standards and pathetic laws that favour the rights of criminals over victims, means this country is a land of opportunity for criminals - sadly. Healing from such ordeals take time albeit the scars will not completely disappear. Stay positive! Thanks again for sharing.

@@JamesandRibble every house is 4 walls and a bed in it, so lets just live in the worst area and the smallest house - bad logic.

@JamesandRibble 2 года назад

@@ReturnOfWilderness I think my logic has escaped you. Living in a better house gives you greater amenity, it's warmer, there is more space, it's a more pleasant place to live. These things can be objectively measured and subjectively felt. A £3,000 Tudor, when measured for its actual function, i.e. telling you what time of day it is, is every bit as capable as a £50,000 AP. You may prefer the look of the AP, and you may like the thoughts about what it says about you as a person (successful with good taste etc), but this is entirely subjective. Other people may quite legitimately think the Tudor scores better on both points. Anyway, that's my opinion, I just don't accept the house analogy.

@JamesandRibble 2 года назад

Thinking about it, you are correct to an extent of course. Otherwise I would wear a Casio F-91 which I don't. However I do acknowledge that my watches, although costing considerably more than the Casio, don't do any better job of actually telling the time than the Casio. I guess it's all a question of degree. If you are wandering around London wearing a Rolex Sub, you just have to be aware that it makes you a target, sad though that is.

@bobby9741 2 года назад

Think we need to remember the primary reason most people buy expensive watches, is to flash. Not all, but the majority of Rolex owners for example. If posing is the objective then you have no option and you take the risk of being mugged. If you're interested in and appreciate nice watches, you can get really great ones from brands no one has heard of to wear when you go somewhere where you might get targeted. I've got a GTM Master ii and an Explorer, and I won't wear them if I'm going somewhere, where I might be at risk. It's just not worth it and personally I think a Casio looks way cooler these days!

Moving story and really hope things have stabilized and you are more at ease with life. A long time ago I was friends with David Duggan ( now a very well established watch dealer) and he often travelled from his home in Lytham down to London and the Police informed him that they had viable evidence that he would be attacked & robbed whilst on one of these journeys but they were not sure where or when he would be done. Thankfully the police got the gang before they got to David but it stuck in my mind how much it troubled him prior to the arrests. Anyway good luck with whatever you are doing now.

I have traveled to many countries of varying degrees of civility, but now realize the precautions that need to be made before and during a visit to the UK. It is basically the same for a country like Morocco. Not third world, but not exactly a place to wear a gold wedding ring. This isn't meant to talk down on the UK in general or its people, only the criminal aspect and selective enforcement of law. God be with you Mr. Thorpe.

Such powerful, moving and maddening stories. I am glad you have your life yet feel for you deeply for having gone through so much. The stress of not knowing if you were going to be charged must have been like absolute torture. I try to train myself to give up a watch I am wearing but even though they are insured, there remains a chance if I don't guage the robber or robbers correctly and think I can defend myself or escape, I worry I might have a sad end. As a result of stories like yours and so many more in my big city, I rotate my collection more often and wear lower key models whenever i feel it's higher risk. That being said, since I won't stop wearing high end watches, a robbery can happen most anywhere. Sorry for your loss of feelings of any pride. Truth is you are stronger than ever and gained insight into your own strength, which is side by side in realizing how vulnerable we all actually are. God bless.

Over 20 yrs ago I left my work in London, sold my house. I don't know how many times I was mugged and burgled there, I was a nervous wreck at the end. The worst time was when I was getting in a lift in a block of flats, they jumped in+ I thought they were going to strangle me as one man pulled my scarf over my face (to stop me shouting). It was my bag they stole. I must say the locals were kind as I sank to the floor on the balcony, sobbing my heart out + they took me into their flat, phoned the police. In my case, the force was better because some time after I had a phonecall asking me to pick them out in a lineup. They had found my handbag with my N.Ireland driving licence which in those days was a booklet with a photo. However, I was terrified of picking out the wrong person in a lineup, especially as being naive from N.Ireland back then, I couldn't distinguish others' features well enough. - Time we all learned self defense but then in the shock, we might not use it.

Sorry to hear that story and no surprises with the help that wasn't given But greatly put over And handled like a true gentleman and humble man And what goes around comes around Take care and the story alone is a learning curve for most who take HEED GODBLESS 🍀

A big up for you Paul and for your nephew. A sad tale, support for victims of crime is pitiful. Hope telling your story helps. Kia Kaha (stay strong).

Crazy high tax, and you get 0 protection, and on top of that you’re not even allowed to protect yourself. This county is finished, everyone who works hard is better off leaving

What a story. This was more of a story about a lack of justice and highlighted the incompetence of the police. Crime of all severity should be punished and taken of utter importance to prevent the abuse of its citizens and to keep a society safe

Just saw this Paul I feel for you and your family. So glad I don’t live in the UK any more. I hate going back there.

When you have to plead with the police to examine the evidence from a violent robbery and they say "we can't cos it costs 500 quid" ....... I'm lost for words. It seems the moral of this series is, if someone violently robs your watch then your own your own. If you defend yourself and try and stop being robbed, then your looking at being arrested yourself..... Thank you Paul. Iv found this 3 video series fascinating and very eye opening. I applaud your courage

I have watched Paul’s robbery videos here in Canada and I am shocked at the UK’s lack of police follow up in these matters. Here in Canada we have adopted British common law. The police and courts here are modelled after the several hundred year old British system. This destroys my view of the UK as a civilized first world society based on rule of law. I have never heard of such police disinterest in a violent crime here in Canada. As a citizen I have a direct and personal connection with my MP and I thought such avenues are open to you in the UK as well. We also have police ombudsman services, and the Provincial Justice Minister. I would be camping out on their doorsteps to get action if I was Paul. I am sad for Paul, and I am sad for the UK.

This sounds like police corruption due to your hard work and they don’t like it. I live fairly nearby by and crime is rampant !

Hi paul, My wife and i have followed many of your stories over the past few months and were unaware that you had been robbed, we both watched your three videos last night and to say we were shocked is an understatement, we can imagine what you are going through , a few years ago we were also robbed, the safe taken with the shop takings, a hell of a lot of jewelry which had been handed down to anne from elderly members of our family, along with passports and other valuables, And again the police were not interested and were very rude and unhelpful and were contacting us at stupid times like 01.30 in the morning when it suited them and came on shifts, Once i told them my insurance had lapsed their attitude changed completely, I got the impression they thought we had done it and wanted to make a claim, Would be a pleasure to make contact with you in the near future and hopefully have a chat, Best regards Kev and Anne

I have a collection only Rolex. I generally have not worn them. I’ve not worn a watch for a few years as the business I’m in there is risk of being followed home every time I go out and return I have to be vigilant as well as my family, sad times you feel as though you can’t wear a nice watch out

@patrickday5238 2 года назад

This was heartbreaking to watch. I get the sinking feeling that this type of thing will go on and probably get worse, unless people start demanding that the police crack down. I don’t think that’s going to happen.

@RhetoricalMuse Год назад

To be fair, I think people will start arming themselves

@JourneysEndLofts 10 месяцев назад

The public have got thier heads so far up thier arses ,thier to busy watching coronation street and football to make any demands, the uk police are nothing more than the DIDDY MEN.

Paul, I’m going to find out to whom the Police Commissioners report, and I’m going to forward your video to that person/Department.

Thank you for telling this story. It's disgusting how corrupt the country has become nowadays. The police need to do something soon, otherwise citizens will take matters into their own hands. Don't say they weren't warned.
