Joolz shows you around Regents Park where he used to play football with WOODY HARRELSON and recreates the scenes from the cult British classic film, Withnail and I.
Learn about how Regents Park came into being after being used by King Henry viii and how the Prince Regent redeveloped the whole of London to accommodate his friends in a beautiful palace that never got built.
See the most miserable tree in London where a spirit is trapped inside whilst Joolz recites Shakespeare near the open air theatre and picks fresh blackberries outside London Zoo. See the camels chomping and penguins being fed whilst Julian McDonnell takes you on a friendly and fun guided walk around Regents Park.

Squirrels are thugs. They harass birds, bunnies, & humans. Almost a decade ago, the squirrels of Texas killed 100-300 million mature oak& elm trees by eating the bark.

Re the Woody Harleson story. I remember the charity match and he actually talked about joining a match, your match, in Regent’s Park in his interview before the game.

@Joolzguides 6 лет назад

And after striking the winning penalty, not a mention for me who taught him everything he knows! Ha ha! I actually saw him recently and had a beer with him. He was nice and even had watched some of my films. He said I should try being a bit more funny in them! Good advice I guess, coming from him!

@Joolzguides 7 лет назад

Thanks folks. Yes, I bumped into Woody again the other day on the tube when he was here doing his live film experiment. I stopped him and we chatted a while but I'm only 60% sure he remembered who I was. He looked pretty zoned out which didn't surprise me! Always remember the time he almost started a fight in a pub because someone was smoking! Funny days. He made our summer.

@Auggies1956 7 лет назад

That's Woody, he's a rude bad boy here in the states.

@Joolzguides 7 лет назад

Here too by the looks of things! I witnessed some of his moments!

@bobgreen2957 6 лет назад

I met him in Lakeville CT a few years ago. He has a summer house there. Being a fellow Texan I said howdy and we had a couple of cocktails before he brazenly fired up some smoking materiel, and it wasn't tobacco.A Wild Child for sure.

@rdrake316 6 лет назад

That Woody story is classic.

@Joolzguides 6 лет назад

Amazingly true..

@michaelwhittaker4246 2 года назад

I couldn’t believe it. After watching this video this morning I walked into Regents Park and immediately saw Joolz in his Panama hat and cricket jumper. Got to wish him a good morning . Pip pip and tally ho! Keep up the good work.

Good afternoon, dear Julian.You've made our day!Thank you. 2:12We've drawn you ,squirrels, birds, your hat ,your umbrella and a bench. These touching music, episode and story are incredibly fantastic!!!🇷🇺

When I was a kid they had motorboats and even sailing dinghies. In about three feet of water. In those days our way of chatting up girls was to bump in to their boats trying to start a conversation. Simple pleasures. Nearby the park is the residence of the American ambassador where they filmed 'The Omen'.

@robertbell2524 2 года назад

I liked Regents Park, Julian. I wish I'd known as much about trees back then as I do now, so that I could have appreciated that beautiful space more. What beautiful flowers at the beginning of your video. I am learning so much from your interesting videos. Thanks for that.

@apodis4900 4 года назад

Awesome video, and Withnail & I is definitely then best film ever made. I wrote my name on the wall in Monty's cottage when it was derelict, and my dog caught a rat in the outbuildings. 😁

@plhebel1 3 года назад

Outstanding the way Joolz breaks out into reciting Shakespeare or bits of other known plays. Mine has always been "Tis the very witching time of night, , , " or O day and night, but this is wondrous strange! And therefore as a stranger give it welcome. There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.,, Wm Shakespeare( Hamlet), Lastly " Ho Ho Ho, look who thinks they know so much,, Fact is your friend is only Mostly dead,, Big difference in Mostly dead and all dead, , , (Princess Bride) William Goldman.

Thanks. As it happens I do sometimes use that website for research, but only if I am feeling desperate. I prefer local knowledge and legends even if they are a bit sketchy on accuracy!

Hi Julian, I did like your Brazilian football t-shirt . Thanks for supporting my countries team. Take care mate !

Love it, Joolz, it was my local park growing up. Our football skills were honed here, having to dodge dog crap! But we had many, many hours of fun.

I've already mentioned in comments about this being possibly my favourite RU-vid channel, as a fellow 'Quirky London' fanatic. But when at 7:45 you say that Weeping Willows are your favourite tree.. as it is mine... I start to get a little creeped out. I'm stating to think maybe one of us is there other's doppelgänger...!

Also creepy as they feature in that song from The Innocents... Willow Waily

@MoBench25 7 лет назад

Woody...........how cool......

@Joolzguides 7 лет назад

Yes...very odd. I actually bumped into him recently on the tube and stopped to talk to him. DOn't think he recognized me though :(

@MoBench25 7 лет назад

You should had invited him to Regents park for a football game ! lol.....

@Joolzguides 7 лет назад

I know..I'm so stupid. I felt bad for stopping him as he was clearly incognito....but I noticed him.

@bdamjanovic 5 лет назад

Where in the park is the spot where you fed squirrels?

@Joolzguides 5 лет назад

Well, you can actually do it anywhere really. Around the university is good but I was near the broadwalk on a mound which is hidden round the back. Hard to explain..near where the art sculptures are at the moment.

@Joolzguides 6 лет назад

ha ha! Wrong! Guess again!!!

@wilsonfineart 6 лет назад

You mentioned that you had a "shrink" so clearly there is an ongoing need for a reduction in stature. Judging by your height in comparison to the squirrel, I say 6' 7".

@pigeonlove 3 года назад

The problem with encouraging tourists to feed the park squirrels is the parks then have to cull them, killing them at random in the thousands, which is a far worse situation, some might say cruel (orphaned animals, social hierarchies altered, new territorial fights) than not being fed the poor quality food in the first place. People, in general, have no idea of animal nutrition, they all bring the same food (peanuts) which are too high in various vitamins and minerals and leads to organ failure. All animals need a variety of food. Worse, the tight tourists just come with an empty hand and tease the animals all day to get their free photos. I don't think its a good idea to encourage them. The parks themselves have signs asking you not to.
