Gloucester Cathedral & Tewkesbury Abbey | Religious Reform in the Cotswolds | Easter Special 

Happy Easter! Let us know where you're watching from, and where your favourite place in the Cotswolds is 😊

I am watching from Burlington, Ontario 🇨🇦 Canada.

What a wonderful church vitraux!

Happy Easter from Brooklyn New York. I love it all.

Happy Easter all and to you sir I enjoy your videos so much ♡♡ watching from Ocala Florida..enjoy the day

Thank you and Happy Easter

Watching from Gloucester, I saw you filming outside Gloucester Cathedral last Monday lunchtime and came across to say hello. Another great informative video, thank you.

I'll be watching from Woodhall Spa in Lincolnshire, although at the mo I'm technically watching in old Bolingbroke Lincolnshire, been visiting the castle ruins where Henry IV was born.

Excellent as always. Thanks from Richard In North Carolina.

Happy Easter 🐣 from Fresno,California

I literally grew up in a small church and I feel much better in one, during my childhood I went to the literal tent revivals, VBS Vacation Bible School and just had a wonderful time listening to and watched my oldest sister get baptized and her friend. a small church is a nice choice.

"Just showing, we really must keep our eye on our heritage, and protect it from the apparently ever present Philistines!" Very well said sir.

Happy Easter from New London , New Hampshire, so enjoy seeing you and your Westin on you travels.

11:47 As soon as I saw this corridor (?) I was stunned and awed. Amazing. Thanks Robin.

As always a delight, Robin! Your director shares a common surname with a Catholic martyr of 1628, St. Edmund Arrowsmith, Priest.

Hello Robin and Ross : I watch your wonderful videos from the Pacific Northwest of the US. I fell in love with the Cotswolds when I visited the area in 1985. It was,of course, pre-internet time so I planned the entire week of exploration with many maps and drove my then 15 year old daughter and myself about the area. It was a wonderful and at times harrowing experience driving on the left versus the right as in the US. The roundabouts were especially tricky as I went clockwise instead of counterclockwise and you can imagine the havoc and angst that caused my British drivers on the road. But we survived and truly enjoyed the beautiful area and friendly, accommodating people we encountered. Because it was such a departure from my usual comfort zone to attempt that trip, I will always consider it to be a turning point in my attitude concerning travel. I have missed the ability to travel during our Covid lost years and for that reason your videos have been so valuable to me and give me the chance to recall a wonderful experience in my life. Thank you! Lillian

Love all The Cotswolds, greetings from Retford, Nottinghamshire.

A really excellent program! Thanks, and Happy Easter as well!

Praying for peace in our world and peace in our hearts! Happy Easter! What an enjoyable special!

From, South Africa, thank you.

Happy Easter everyone, filled with many blessings 🍀

Happy Easter Robin and Widget from us here in Albany, Western Australia. Andrew, Grant and Brae the Westie and Maggie the cat. We love watching your videos. Having had the enormous privilege of visiting the Cotswolds in 2019, just prior to the pandemic, we would say our favourite place was Stow-on-the-Wold closely followed by Broadway where we stayed for 10 days. A truly memorable experience.

Happy Easter! I am from the United States. New York state to be exact. I would move to the Cotswold area in a second. God save the Queen!

Happy Easter weekend 😄 I'm watching from Ontario, Canada. Good job on this one! 💖🥰😍

A lovely journey, beautifully narrated, amongst some really splendid ecclesiastical architecture. A pertinent reminder also, of what can so easily be lost, in the name of spiritual or temporal authority. Thank you.

LOVELY! REMINDED OF MY TWO VISITS! HAPPY EASTER! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!

Hello Cotswold Explorer from Sydney, Australia. Thank you for continuing our education so entertainingly on the dissolution of the monasteries and its impact. We very much liked the tiny village of Winson where we stayed for 10 days for our daughter's 2017 wedding outside Bibury. Discovered a pathway from the village centre to the most pictuesque pools imaginable in the River Coln. No time to investigate St Michael's Church (perhaps too much time at the excellent Village Pub in nearby Barnsley!) - maybe worth a future video?

An excellent tour - no worries for spreading outside the usual area as this supplies such wonderful material. A recently retired gent, watching from Ellicott City, Maryland, USA, with a fondness for Cheltenham, which may be just outside the usual area though in the spirit of this video I thought it safe to mention. Happy Easter to one and all, and a heartfelt thanks for mentioning the stalwart citizens of Ukraine.

Happy Easter! Watching from a tiny town named Aberdeen in Ohio USA. I so enjoy this show! Indeed it is one of my favorites! ♥

Happy Easter from Texas. Thank you for sharing your journeys and knowledge (and the color green).

Happy Easter ! Watching from the Ozarks. I've been looking forward to this presentation. You did an awesome job 👏 If I ever travel abroad the first place I'm going is the Cotswolds! I want to see all of it Thank you!

I love all of it. I was introduced to the Cotswolds via Agatha Raisin novels.

Happy Easter from South Carolina ~ My Favorite Places is Oxfordshire. But Ipswitch and Otley and Suffolk England is my true home~ my family the Gosnold lived there and still do I suppose, My 7th Great Grandfather come over on a ship we have a copy of the ships log but I find myself looking for anything and everything about my family there. Some day I wish to visit in which time I would like to meet you and let you know how much I have enjoyed your travels in the Cotswold there. I watch these over and over again for it makes me feel like I know more about my true home. Thank you

Happy Easter from Victoria British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦

Breathtakingly beautiful!! I would love to just stand in the church and soak in the atmosphere. Nothing built today quite equals the magnificent craftsmanship so evident in all these ancient buildings. Truly masters of their craft and astounding that such beauty could be achieved using what would be considered primitive tools and building methods. I find myself completely awed and astounded.

That was wonderful! Thank you.

Always a delight to join you on your walkabouts.

Thank you Robin for another amazing journey. Here on the east coast of USA, avid fan for several years. Favorite episode, favorite place is Bourton on the Water, but every episode is my new favorite place. Sincere thanks for your devotion to the Cotswolds & sharing this amazing place with us. The world needs more caretakers like you.

Beautifully engaging, every aspect of this glorious video is top notch. I’m an Englishwoman currently living in Southern California and get my homesick fix from your journeys around the Cotswolds & beyond. Thank you Robin & Ross, I will sleep well tonight dreaming of the amazing architecture & history of our green& pleasant lands. Wishing you a lovely Easter Monday 💖🌟🙏

Had to wait all day to finally get to watch this! AWESOME!!! Happy Easter everyone! HE IS RISEN!

I’ve loved all your videos, but I think this one is my favorite. Thank you

Thank you,Robin,for your lovely Easter gift ! It is,indeed,the most precious one . Happy Easter !

Happy Easter Mr Robin. Really enjoyed the video. Watching from Southern West Virginia, USA.

Thank you Robin. Happy Easter from James in Toronto. Wonderful production Ross, thank you too!

Thank you for a truly poetically extraordinary episode. And from Colorado, USA - prayers to your viewers in Ukraine. You are daily remembered and five 🇺🇦 fly throughout our little neighborhood

Congratulations Robin and thank you very much. I am watching from Buenos Aires Argentina. I like your show and enjoy it!!

Thank you for this special Easter tour… it was lovely🙏

Robin, I love your Aruba, it is a beauty. I'm a Queenslander, and absolutely love your series and shows, every morning I look to see if you've uploaded a new clip. I can't wait to visit your beautiful country again, the Cotswolds would have to be my favourite place to visit in the whole world, I dream of living there. Thank you for your shows. 😊❤

I am watching from Pennsylvania, in the States. You have outdone yourself here. What a fabulous video! I have taken a series of lectures on ecclesiastical architecture and find your explanations top notch. Well done!

Preserving the heritage of our forefathers... well said.

A wonderful dip into the striking and interesting ecclesiastical history of this area.

An excelent tour.

HAPPY EASTER ROBIN AMAZING LOCATION AND THE ARTISAN CRAFTSMANSHIP IS BRILLIANT TAKE CARE FOLKS

Watching from London , love these little films

Well done, an excellent Easter post!

Happy Easter Robin, Widget and Ross! One of my favorite channels here. Thanks for all of the content and I look forward to much more.

Happy Easter! Watching you here in State College, Pennsylvania.

A voice between John Pertwee and John Hurt.. brilliant x

Very enjoyable, thank you.

Thank you so much! I cannot tell about the rejoicing at watching this...

Wonderful video and commentary on the churches and cathedrals. Thanks for sharing. In Virginia USA

The little gems makes one beautiful bouquet. I was wondering if there was any books about these small churches that are dotted along countryside.

I have really enjoyed all of your excursions and now plan a vacation to follow your footsteps! Thank you very much from California!

A wonderful video, thank you.

Gloucester Cathedral is stunning. Indeed the whole City is. It has its problems i know but as Jon from Gloucester, Jon of Gloucester I love it.

I’m watching from Tennessee and have only seen the beautiful Cotswolds through the window of the coach as it raced past. I wish to visit on a slower ramble to see some of these churches and villages. Thank you for this guided tour.

Enjoyed your journeys and gave me a small mental break from the students here at the school I teach at :) One of the schools I attended had a small medieval chapel and seeing these beautiful places of worship and peace made me feel like I was there again. Thanks :)

A real treat! How wonderful that Ukraine follows as well. Your voice is so soothing and Ross’s stupendous filming, it must be calming amongst the turmoil of the world. And many blessings to you too, thank you so much, I do hope you can continue. Take care.

Happy Easter to you too. I am watching from Florida. Have you ever heard of a village called Rosewood that existed as late ad the 1820's?

Great video. Thank you.

Amazing films ,I really enjoy your work .

Awesome! Thanks!

Amazing!

Oddington is a remnant of a deserted village, hence its solitary position.

The loss of such architectural marvels is a huge blow to history. All because of one man’s lust for power to put himself above all men.

Happy Easter. 🐣 2024

I'm not saying a huge church is bad, It doesn't have the same feeling.

lets have more of this please ... awesome .Ennry8th worst king of all .. the monarchy should unit all men not serve the vanity of a single man

you missed a chance to offer a little prayer for Ukraine. Don't be shy of your Christianity.

TD for contemporary politics, which have no place in an otherwise interesting video.

New hat?
