Tower of London 5 of 5 

I've been there a couple of weeks ago and had this very Warder as the tour guide. His tour was the best I ever got in a museum and the best part of my visit to London. I recently watched 'The Tudors' on tv and had to think about everything he told. If you ever come to London, visit the Tower. It is expensive, but the Yeoman Warders will make it worth every penny!

If this guy doesn't get his very own BBC show I WILL eat the 'Cat's' breakfast ..... just BRILLIANT!!!!! :-)

Thanks for the upload, this guy is awesome.

wonderful. watched him twice

I didn't mean to imply negatively when I used the word ignorant. Most are oblivious to the fact that the the guards are real life soldiers, and that they are on public duties a few months at a time in-between doing whatever operational soldiers do. All I want is for people to show them the respect they deserve. If that makes me a pompous know-it-all then so be it.

The great Bill Callaghan, total legend

DON'T EVER FORGET THAT THESE GUYS, 'HAVE-BEEN-IN-THE-SHADOW-OF-THE-VALLEY-OF-DEATH', THESE ARE ''YESTERDAYS-HEROES' MEN WHO HAVE SERVED AND FOUGHT THEIR COUNTRY. AND SEEN THEIR MATES DIE, YOU CANNOT GET THE JOB UNLESS YOUV'E BEEN AN EXEMPLARY WARRIOR. WELL DONE THAT MAN,

this man should get a tv show himself !!! I would watch all of it !!!

Bill Callahan is fantastic! Check out some of his public speeches

They are properly known as Yeoman Warders, Constables of the Tower and during my time in MoD whilst working for the office of the Provost Marshal (Army) (Chief Constable of the Military Police) in the mid 80's I used to issue new Yeoman Warders with their Warrant Cards, which I assume they still carry today! Great guys and most had a wicked sense of humour.....(ex Military, says it all)

What's so great about this Beefeater, is that he tells the tourists a little about the guards at the Tower of London. I hope that this will be a necessary part of the tour if it isn't already. Because many perceive the guards to be a show-pieces and 'actors' to attract tourists. It really grinds my gears when I come across videos of ignorant tourists disturbing the guards like mimicking them or touching them. *salute*

Great expectations got sooo lost 😂😂😂

Brilliant my son learnt more watching this than at school

Thank you so much for this,it beats anything offered on tv these day. The Yeoman warder is a natural entertainer as well as been an excellent and informative guide...

If you're in London this is probably the most entertaining guided tour you can do. I've been on the Yeoman tour more times than I can count, and I've enjoyed it every time, yes even when I been shepherding my class of school kids. Well worth taking if you're visiting the Tower.

@emptyangel Well put .... my grandfather was also a beefeater and they are given a basic script ( dates and names etc) but they are then left alone to bring the history to life and tell it how they see it. If they made it like a school lesson it would be boring.

He should be presenting history programs!

We look forward to the new Monarchy coming in to power! G-D save the King! Long live the King! It is a GREAT HONOUR to serve{even under the mental health ACT 1983}

That American woman saying he's still single in the background, no sense of humour, they don't understand the British sense of humour at all.

actually...I'm interested in the history...not the jewels...but the History grabs me...AWESOME Tour!!

Well , you can catch me falling anyday 😂👌 Amazing fun education for all ages and abilities X Super proud

Crown copyright?? What could be copyrighted in there?

Hear Hear ! :) And the guides are so entertaining, I just couldn't take my attention away for a second!

This chap is brilliant at the art of giving information.

Watched all 5. Thanks :)

Thanks for sharing

Can somebody please award him some comedy price?

Not really. There's a historical reason to it. The Yeoman Warders were once paid by the King in beef which was a great delicacy at the time and very expensive and the name Beefeater was born soon after.

"He's still single"...LOL

They HATE HATE HATE IT when called a beefeater. It is basically calling them fat.
