I don't why but whenever Chris uploads an video it makes the place more beautiful as he adds his stop motion to it. Keep it up Chris, we need more youtubers like you.!
I’ve got to be the only one super-tube-nerdy enough to realise that Chris edited Northern line 95 stock sounds over the original District S-Stock audio. Man, I need to get a life.
I am from Oklahoma, and I cannot say enough how delightful I found this to be. I have also travelled Korea and seen most of the places on Korean banknotes. How wonderful to see the places on these English notes!
Whenever Chris uploads I can just feel how Chris takes care of his RU-vid channel like it’s his own baby and know that this man is quality over quantity. Chris is also looks like a genuine good person. Sometimes it annoys me that someone would dislike a half-asleep Chris video because that guy is such a cool dude 😎
My theatre club at my high school performed the play version of Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen last fall. It was nice hearing about her in this video and learning more about her :)
Tom Bradford We do have train travel. It's just no where near as popular or as efficient. At least in several ways. America is so huge we have to fly everywhere.
@@jasonmiller3421 To be fair, if I wanted to get where I am to the Northern tip of the UK it would be both faster and cheaper to fly there then the catch the train and I'm not even in the South. Granted, I've been on some knarly train journeys in my lifetime. I'm self-isolating at the moment though
I love trains ( the British train system more than then Italian), I find fascinating the stories of the details of each banknote and I really like how you present your videos. So, it's a win-win-win sitiation!! Thanks for your entertaining work. 😺
My aunt from the UK gave me a 5 Pound note and I was really happy. Note that my country is not part of the Commonwealth and the Value of 1 pounds is 60+ pesos in my country. This may seem small for an Englishman but it sure is big for me
This channel is the greatest thing created. Just so simple and original content that everyone loves. Your videos are so pure, snd its just refreshing to find a youtube channel where the main guy isn’t always screaming in your face. Its just nice to see this
I so love all your videos, and these videos about British bank notes and the inspirations and locations featured in their designs makes this video one of the most fascinating. You still deserve a million more subscribers; your videos are well worth viewing and I look forward to being notified of a new video in my sub list. Thank you from USA
Interesting stuff 1:35 while you're around the Bank of England you should visit the BoE museum, just around the corner from where Chris was standing. They have one of the 400toz (12.4kg) gold bars (worth about £600,000) on display that you can pick up (although it's in a kind of cage so you can't walk off with it). 6:40 Austen did most of her writing at her house in Chawton in Hampshire which is now the Jane Austen House Museum. As a local boy I'm sure Chris knew that :) If you look at the banknote, above the picture of Godmersham House is a picture of Jane working on a manuscript, surrounded by a shape with many sides. The shape reflects the shape of the table where she worked, which is on display at the museum. The nearest train station is Alton, then it's about a half-hour walk to the house.
2:30 The Queen! My gosh how did she grow a beard that looks like the house of parliament! Her eyes look really weary. What an awkward thing on the banknote.
Living in Florida (plenty of sea around here!!) and having never been to England, this was a neat mini tour. I appreciate the details and history explanation, so thanks!

Absolutely brilliant and educational at the same time adventure! I normally don't care much for sponsors, but I have to say that Trainline and Trainline EU apps have saved my butt couple years ago. I was returning from work related training in Germany, driving back home to UK. While stuck in slow traffic in Belgium I got rear ended by some local, my car was a write off and I got stranded on the side of the motorway near Mons. Not the most pleasant situation on cold and wet mid-December Friday evening, with my wife and child awaiting my return. I tried finding flights etc, but I was far away from any of the airports. And then I used the Trainline EU app, found connection from Mons to Brussels and then to London. Believe me, it was one hell of unplanned adventure!
This is so cool!!! I would love to visit all of these places one day!!!! It’s been my dream to travel to different places!!! This was super cool!!!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️😁
It makes my day every time I see you've uploaded. Never realised that the tate was featured on the £20 note, should have looked when I visited last week.
I live mmm fairly close to Margate and we go there quite alot, and to see my favourite youtuber standing where I commonly stand and admiring what I commonly admire was amazing..
This is one of my favorite banknote videos of yours! I mention when I have visited sites on banknotes in my videos...but nothing on your scale! I do enjoy my theme and individual banknote videos. Though they do not compare to your production.
