Town Drunks & Nudist Beaches: The Real Cornwall 🇬🇧 

Awesome meeting you mate! Will definitely link up again soon for another town visit

I can't believe they've actually gone to the trouble of making road signs! Nice to see you teaming up with Ben, Bald & Bankrupt next Mr Wendell! =)

great vid as per usual. any chance of you doing a vid investigating Polzean and the effects of all the rich kids hitting the beaches down there? been a few stories in the tabloids recently, would love to hear the views of the locals of that area plus some of the rich holidaymakers. all the best Oli

I grew up near Camborne , in Troon. It I went to school in Camborne and spent a lot of my time there. I’m now in Australia and would love to go back for a holiday. You can take people out of Cornwall but not the Cornish out of them.

Beautiful scenery lovely day 😎😎😎

Ben looks like he's about to burst out with a New Order track

The more time I spend in Cornwall, the less enamoured I’m becoming with it - I don’t come down in the school holidays, I’m down out of season when I’m often the only person in the shops and cafes (especially in November and January when my ‘emmet’ money is evidently welcome!)I also know how to drive down tiny country lanes without any bother. Been coming down upwards of 10 times a year for over 11 years but no longer look forward to it and think it’s time I looked elsewhere.

The drunks staggering around the streets falling into the road during the middle of the day is one of the 3 worst things about camborne

I’m a Cornishman, still live here, but spent time in the army. A lot of you guys say we don’t want you is incorrect, less numbers would be a help, but it’s second homes that get to us. Come and visit, but please go home

Thank you very interesting. We come from England. Sad to see it going down the pan. Take Care Sara x

Look at all the trails in the sky!

That guy you spoke to in town seemed a lovely bloke,has he got a problem with drink I’m sure he could be saved I would have to keep checking on him.

The Locals are intent on killing off the only industry that makes them money, they insult visitors, I just wouldn't go there now. another great Vlog, thank you.

The collab we all been waitin for!

To be fair Cornwall isn't immune from the same problems as everywhere else. Granted tourism is a plus and a minus for them. But with everything else the good and the bad depend on who you are. And it sounds a lot like where I live in Greater Manchester. Lack of jobs, not much to do, but we have enough shops that you don't need to go out of town to get what you need. We have trouble with drugs, antisocial behaviour, motorbike gangs. But where doesn't these days? I don't know if people think that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, but if you live anywhere for long enough you'll see everywhere is pretty much the same good and bad. I don't think you can escape it anywhere unless you live on your own desert island.

great stuff, Wendall back on top form again. ✔✔🏴‍☠

Great to get a bit under the skin of the locals 😊 And Pedn Vounder is always beautiful 😊 And at last Porthemmet is localised 😂

Steps onto nudist beach. Says "It's always quite rewarding when you get to the bottom." 😂

That 'nudist' beach matches any beach I have seen around the world -😃

What a releeif you kept your kit on at the nudist beach! 😆

Honestly, you picked the worst people you could find to ask that question to in Camborne, they are clearly drunks and their only priority is alcohol. If you had asked many others, they would have said about the peak of Camborne, it's history in the mining days, before our government shut it down (like many other makers in England), hence why we now mainly rely on, fund and promote cheap Chinese imports instead of making the quality products that Britain was so famous for. The housing crisis is another story, it has turned from seasonal tourism into permanent sells to emmets (no offence). But all that creates is no homes for born and bred locals (the youngsters that could be the next generation have to move away), it wont be long before the emmets realise they have kicked out and damaged the locals that they rely on to maintain their properties that are empty most of the year with no income for them to take out of Cornwall where it was made.

Wow that beach is stunning!!

Hi Ollie, just to say you have opened my eyes to the Cornish hate of tourist. I visit yearly and have picked up on attitude without realising it. So now I don’t shop locally I go to supermarket chains so I’m not feeding the local economy. We go to gwithian or Trevedra where gwynver is the local beach. Rock on wendle

literally full turkey man mode....obviously

Wooah. Ben referred to Cornwall as England. Provocative!

Sounds like my hometown Wolverhampton lmfao.

No shite!! Never ever saw this one. It has freaking blown me away. Seriously, Blown away..Cornish walking tour? Great vid and then Ben?? One of my favourite ...hey but yeah BUTT..It kills me how ever Ben trash Plymouth and Cornwall as he does! Plus u live there? Sorry x pat KERNOW.

Some amount of Solar Geoengineering going on in the sky in this video.. Wow!

New to the channel from Ben! Cheers mate

was that Johnny two dogs sitting in his usual spot

I really did think it was better than that there

Only in the UK 😂 That girl clambouring down the cliff in sandals 😂😂

What were all those white stripes, 3:48 in the sky?

The Ancestral Squalor of the Proles is a protected category.

I know the White Heart has had a bad reputation since the early-mid 1990s and I've heard its not got any better over time . The Waggoner's used to be OK . I still have friends who live in the town , I know most of them avoid the centre at night on a weekend . I must admit I am glad I don't live there anymore . The last time I was there was for my mates wedding back in 2003 .

I really enjoy your videos, thank you. Obviously the Turkey man Obviously loves the word Obviously because Obviously you must of heard him say Obviously a lot in that interview Obviously about 23 times 🦃 I lnow because I counted them... Obviously

The Turkey Man is incorrect about the local MP. It is George Eustice, and I don't think he would go out of his way to help the community. He is probably thinking of a town councillor.

I love the Portuguese. They're very friendly especially with Brits.

I'm so glad i work hard and have money,Cornwall is fantastic.

I would no be able to write what people think about Cornwall where I live in Cornwall. The over tourism is causing a lot of anger.

Cornwall is beautiful many happy holidays spent there!

Thought you were going up to Walsall , what happened .

I like Bens channel but for him to say pretty much 90% of the uk is run down is just bollox. I agree that there are lots of run down bits of the country, I live in Nottingham so I should know! but no way is 90% of the UK run down, there's plenty of great places to visit in the UK!

Not sure if everyone is an addict or mentally in that town or if you only interviewed people with issues in that town

Saw a video about you moving back to the Midlands. Did you stay in Cornwall?

Do you not have a microphone wire or anything.

The Duchy of Cornwall has been spoilt by over reliance on tourism and second homes. I don't think the people you spoke to in Camborne are a fair representation of Cornish people.

He’s “Obviously” a turkey man 😅

Cool video guys

Who’s sold the land /the houses originally the locals, yet they moan about second homeowners but apparently like the cash even more bunch of total hypocrites

A fair bit of shite talked in this video. I won’t lie. I like you both, but saying it’s more run down the more north you go discounts the national parks and all the villages within them. Scotland has some magical places.

Is cobs in the cornish language?

This is fucking depressing. Is there anything good to say about the UK? Where I live it’s great.

We see the problem here . Difficult finding locals to interview , mainly 'good lifers' from up country that dont work or have a proper job that benefits the local community . Friendly trusting , hard working and hard playing people . A couple of drunks in Camborne is not representative of the Cornish and if you live near Penzance have a proper job and put into the community , you would know that as I did as I was absorbed into the community after a few weeks of work in the Penwith Peninsular. A community of fishers and farmers , engineers , builders and other intelligent local tradespeople although during the summer months had its fair share of benefit "benders" from up country , squatting on private land and filthing up the place . Pedne was my nearest beach , and a beautiful place to visit after the August Bank Holiday. I was included in all the activities of the village including rough shooting with the lads , organised by the local builder that should of won the contract I was working on , a lovely chap and wonderful Cornishman . RIP Tommy . No shortage of fish , seafood , pasties and pasty pies from the fisher folk in the village and really honoured when given the helm of Skipper Robert's seiner during a test run from Penzance harbour to Tater Du light and back . Nights "up a Treen " , the Coasties at Mousehole, the meaderies , local Rugby clubs including the Pirates in Penzance were great fun , parties and Christmas there the best a foreigner could hope for , and to be trusted with the families of the fishermen out at sea often for up to 2 weeks or more was the highest honour , a trust I never betrayed . Never once in my life before that had I felt I truly belonged and I thank those lovely people for that feeling . Thanks to Dougy , Jo , Robert and Bex in particular. The Cornish have earned the right to be cynical and untrusting of emmets especially " East Coasters " and if you took a little time out to study the history and politics of the region you would understand why this is so . The EU imposed bans on hake and haddock that kept the Cornish boats in harbour but permitted the Spanish and French boats to overfish our waters is just one example of the injustices dished out . The very industries that made Cornwall the place enjoyed by millions each summer has been destroyed by decisions made in Westminster with the mining industry and Brussels with the CAP and CFP . The first has been given new hope and I hope more mines reopen for local labour to enjoy , but until we actually see Brexit the chance of recovering from the last 2 while our government continues to pay into the EU club instead of restoring the fleets of Newlyn, Falmouth etc to 1980s level even , then the only profit seen will be that sent to the wealthiest of individuals of the Duchy Estates . If you have not been met with this level of kindness in your community " near Penzance " , then you never will and don't belong there and unlikely ever to be accepted . And by the way , true Cornwall is West of the Hayle ( not the Tamar ) and has been for decades , you should have discovered that from locals in your community . The rest of Cornwall fell decades ago , but I see signs that Brexit when it eventually happens , is perhaps too late to save the rest of it .

Not very bright the locals

Exploiting the poor and disadvantaged for RU-vid - sad

Backpacker Ben sent me!

Drinking drinking drinking 🤦‍♀️

👍

Wish you'd have visited Liverpool

Ridiculously expensive and miserable. So much better going elsewhere,down to Europe for the weather,food,beautiful women and pretty much everything else. Only good thing in Cornwall is the rattler to drown your sorrows about everything else

98% grime is very cynical. I see more beauty than grime As for the not much to do brigade, go and find a past time that you can be passionate about. Find out what activities are occurring in the area

Obviously

Hi mate ❤

England's 100% grime ;)

The cornish remind me of Americans. No megaphone required. 😅

A Cornish Hamish

Chemtrails over the beach 😔

The one thing wrong about Camborne is Redruth 😂😂😂

Everyone deserves a chance it's a disease and some people can't help it the world today is moving too fast 20 years ago things were totally different wendall is brillant

The duchy off cornwall? Ha! Ha! Theres duchys all over England the cornish just dont no that! Shame aye cornwalls a county in england without our help youve had it!😂😅😢😢

It's a certain kind of person who puts their own country down for views.

Rubbish your calculations are way out your forgetting the Lake District…etc other areas as well the weather isn’t always bad either. You havant’t mentioned the Channel Islands either..

If you can’t say something good don’t say nothing ………

CAMBORNE INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE = Beach benefits £'s None are locals, all outsiders. The old working Cornish would have run this lot out of town! Along with the Entitled incomers who seem to be taking the pi** out of the area

Hello from Canada 🇨🇦

No way oli your with ben

0:15

Cheat!

Imagine when immigrants make it to Cornwall.
