Indian Summer in Ooty Series Man Alive 1976 

King Star with its delicious chocolates and that red stickjaw, Shinkows, St Stephen's church, Spencer's, Dr Writer's wafer chocolates, Kurinjis ice cream stall, Govt gardens, Assembly Rooms, the walk uphill from St Stephens back to school, Ooty lake, the hill train, walks in the woods....unforgettable!!!!....anybody with me???🤗

I was born and brought up in Ooty. I remember the races, St. Stephens and Spencer's.Thank you for the trip down memory lane.

Very interesting documentary, thanks for sharing..! Lovely to see the Britishers' affection for this place for its beauty and flora n fauna. Not much has changed, in fact, people here still procrastinate severely putting all work on tomorrow as Mrs. Herbert mentions..! Two years ago I fell in love with this place and want to make it my home despite the challenges of language & reduced amenities.

Thank you so much, this is wonderful. Ooty has my heart

Grt video

We Indians have done a complete demolition job on Ooty and the Nilgiris. Why blame the British? I knew the Nilgiris at its best, having been to school there (after Independence) and it has been spoilt subsequently, like we've destroyed whatever was worthwhile, in the whole of India

Does anyone know what happened to Mrs. Herbert? Could not find anything in Google and for the respect she commanded among the locals, I am curious to know how she spent her last years

Mrs Herbert looks like she is being interviewed on the set of TV series Tenko .

👌

Nice😂

Ooty not invented by the British. It was there since beginning. You can say that Britisher are the destroyers of beautiful nilgiri.
