29001

00:34
Here in the birthplace of the English language.
1
34102
3579
00:37
This is Mr. Duncan.
2
37681
2275
00:39
How are you today?
3
39956
1705
00:41
Are you okay?
4
41661
1355
00:43
I hope so.
5
43016
1505
00:44
Are you happy?
6
44521
1472
00:45
I hope you are feeling happy today.
7
45993
3379
00:49
The first thing I will ask.
8
49372
2007
00:51
Of course.
9
51379
635
00:52
As usual, whenever I do my outside live streams can you hear me?
10
52014
5754
00:57
Can you hear?
11
57768
1622
00:59
And can you see the image clearly?
12
59390
3880
01:03
I hope so.
13
63270
2158
01:05
We are in a rather unusual place today.
14
65428
3746
01:09
I don't think I've ever done a live stream from here before.
15
69174
4767
01:13
I think it must be the first time I've ever done any live stream from this particular point.
16
73941
7927
01:22
You might notice the view today is rather nice.
17
82588
3545
01:26
Something different.
18
86133
1907
01:28
I thought I would come outside because the weather is not too bad. Even though
19
88040
4917
01:34
we've had a lot of grey skies.
20
94462
2275
01:36
The sun comes out now and again, but
21
96737
5803
01:42
mostly it is cloudy.
22
102540
2877
01:45
But who knows, we might see a little bit of sunshine during this live stream.
23
105417
5804
01:51
But I suppose the big question is, where are you? Mr. Duncan, we can't see you.
24
111388
3395
01:54
Where are you?
25
114783
719
01:55
Please reveal yourself.
26
115502
2609
01:58
Okay, then once more, I am wearing my red t shirt, my red hat, and I am surrounded by green leaves.
27
118111
11424
02:09
Is a very interesting combination indeed.
28
129535
3127
02:12
Here we go, then.
29
132662
3680
02:16
Hi, everybody.
30
136342
1438
02:17
Once more, this is Mr. Duncan in England. How are you today?
31
137780
5135
02:22
Are you okay?
32
142915
1287
02:24
I hope so. Are you happy?
33
144202
1807
02:26
Are you feeling good today?
34
146009
1371
02:27
I hope you are feeling wonderful today.
35
147380
4081
02:31
And I am out and about.
36
151461
2710
02:34
We have the beautiful landscape today.
37
154171
4382
02:38
The landscape of the place in which I live.
38
158553
2993
02:41
This place is called Shropshire.
39
161546
2793
02:44
That is the county.
40
164339
2760
02:47
And over there in the distance.
41
167099
2843
02:49
Right in the distance. In fact, you will not be able to see it.
42
169942
4566
02:54
We have Shrewsbury, the large town of Shrewsbury.
43
174508
5402
02:59
And then across here we have the mountains, the hills going off towards Wales.
44
179910
7727
03:08
You might be able to see there is a hill just over there.
45
188156
3027
03:11
That particular hill is called Bryden Hill.
46
191183
4382
03:15
It has a famous landmark on top called Rodney's Pillar.
47
195565
5519
03:21
A very interesting place.
48
201084
1924
03:23
So here we are then. Oh my goodness, I can't believe I'm back with you again.
49
203008
3863
03:27
For those who haven't already realised, we have a new month.
50
207925
3361
03:31
We have new lessons.
51
211286
1890
03:33
We also have lots of lovely live streams as well just for you.
52
213176
5804
03:39
So I hope you are having a good Wednesday so far.
53
219147
5001
03:44
I will mention the live chat.
54
224148
1923
03:46
Of course I will mention the live chat because that's why we are here to share our love of English together.
55
226071
8346
03:54
Hello!
56
234752
618
03:55
Can I say hello to Vitus?
57
235370
1773
03:57
Also Mustafa education L.T.
58
237143
4683
04:01
hello to you as well.
59
241826
1807
04:03
Trem Ung, hello to you
60
243633
4365
04:07
also Josep. Hello as well.
61
247998
4064
04:12
Thank you very much.
62
252062
2241
04:14
There is only one Mr. Duncan on YouTube.
63
254303
4048
04:18
Only one person looks like this.
64
258351
3027
04:21
Only one person would dare to look like this.
65
261378
4783
04:26
This is my official YouTube channel.
66
266161
2492
04:28
There is only one official approved authorised Facebook page as well.
67
268653
7493
04:37
All the rest are fake.
68
277233
2994
04:40
So it's nice to see you all here today.
69
280227
2308
04:42
I hope you can hear me. All right.
70
282535
2341
04:44
I am standing in a very strange place.
71
284876
2492
04:47
So where I am standing at the moment is actually a public footpath.
72
287368
4801
04:52
So there might be some people walking by during this live stream.
73
292169
5301
04:57
Also, we might see some wildlife as well, because around here
74
297470
5804
05:03
there are many wild animals, including rabbits and
75
303475
5803
05:10
deer.
76
310232
2124
05:12
A lot of deer at this time of year roam around this area, so don't be too surprised if you see
77
312356
8797
05:22
some animals walking behind me.
78
322190
3061
05:25
Maybe even some human beings might go by as well.
79
325251
4984
05:30
So it is nice to see you all here.
80
330235
1806
05:32
Who else is here?
81
332041
870
05:32
Mosin and also Palmira and Franco Ferrari is here as well.
82
332911
7760
05:40
Thank you very much for joining me.
83
340688
2090
05:42
This will be a short live stream because I am standing in a very unusual place and to be honest with you,
84
342778
8513
05:53
I thought the weather was going to be quite pleasant and warm.
85
353098
5803
05:58
But it isn't.
86
358951
1372
06:00
It is not.
87
360323
1020
06:01
It is quite chilly, in fact.
88
361343
2944
06:04
So I'm.
89
364287
987
06:05
I'm wearing my t shirt, as you can see.
90
365274
2876
06:08
And I have to say, I'm feeling rather
91
368150
3278
06:11
cold already and have only been here for about six minutes.
92
371428
5553
06:16
Anyway, it is good to see you here on the live chat.
93
376981
5101
06:22
Who else is here today? Beatrice.
94
382082
2191
06:24
Hello, Beatrice, by the way, if you're wondering what that sound is.
95
384273
5787
06:31
That sound is not thunder.
96
391080
4499
06:35
It is actually
97
395579
2643
06:38
a fighter plane.
98
398222
3077
06:41
Flying over, doing exercises.
99
401299
2375
06:43
So that is one of those high speed jets that the military use.
100
403674
6305
06:51
Another band that's subject.
101
411568
2308
06:53
Hello, Valery.
102
413876
1372
06:55
Valery is watching me in the gym.
103
415248
2759
06:58
Well, now I feel a bit guilty because I feel as if I should be moving as well.
104
418007
4717
07:02
So maybe during today's live stream I can do a little bit of exercise whilst you are doing your exercise at the gym.
105
422724
8279
07:11
Here we go. One, two.
106
431103
1823
07:12
Lift those arms up in the air. Wave your hands like you just don't care.
107
432926
5553
07:18
Wiggle your toes and shake your feet.
108
438479
3328
07:22
Move your body to a funky beat.
109
442911
3128
07:26
The Toto, Toto, Toto, Toto, Toto, Toto, Toto. But.
110
446039
5803
07:33
There is definitely something wrong with me.
111
453498
1806
07:35
Definitely.
112
455304
2643
07:37
Who else is here today?
113
457947
1856
07:39
Oh my goodness.
114
459803
2860
07:42
Hello, Holly. Josh, Holly?
115
462663
3111
07:45
Josh asks where are you now?
116
465774
2944
07:48
I am about 20 minutes away from my house.
117
468718
2726
07:51
I had to walk through two large fields.
118
471444
4733
07:56
I am now covered in mud.
119
476177
1622
07:57
My feet are covered in mud because some of the fields are still wet from all of the rain we've had recently,
120
477799
8614
08:07
and I had to climb up a hill as well to get up here.
121
487349
5520
08:12
And as you can see, I am high up, so the place I am at the moment is in the middle of England.
122
492869
6840
08:19
In fact, you might say that I am nearer to Wales.
123
499709
5252
08:24
So just over there in the distance is Wales.
124
504961
2692
08:27
Over there and over there we have Shrewsbury, but in the very far distance,
125
507653
6239
08:33
and if the weather is clear, quite often on a very clear day you can see.
126
513892
5820
08:41
Mount Snowdon.
127
521853
3479
08:45
It is a very high point.
128
525332
1639
08:46
In the winter it normally becomes covered with snow because it is so high up.
129
526971
5803
08:53
Not today though.
130
533577
920
08:54
I don't think we can see Snowdon today.
131
534497
2944
08:57
No, it's a little bit too cloudy. Unfortunately.
132
537441
5803
09:03
Hello again.
133
543261
1187
09:04
Although I Arnoldo is watching right now in Brazil.
134
544448
5319
09:09
Hello Agnes, although it is nice to see you here today as well.
135
549767
5703
09:15
The good news is
136
555470
2676
09:18
they haven't banned.
137
558146
5804
09:24
YouTube yet.
138
564719
3663
09:28
I know some countries are thinking of banning
139
568382
3562
09:31
other social media platforms, but at the moment they seem to like YouTube very much.
140
571944
6623
09:38
So if all of the leaders of all of the countries around the world are watching at the moment, could you please not,
141
578935
6239
09:45
I repeat, don't block YouTube because because my my lovely viewers will miss me.
142
585993
8095
09:54
I'm sure.
143
594322
669
09:56
Who else is here?
144
596062
1020
09:57
I like to say hello.
145
597082
1388
09:58
I don't like to ignore anyone.
146
598470
2877
10:01
Who else is here today?
147
601347
3111
10:04
I don't know why, but the live chat seems very small on the screen.
148
604458
5084
10:09
I don't know why YouTube have changed this system again.
149
609542
5386
10:14
I think Luciano is here.
150
614928
3211
10:18
Hello Luciano, nice to see you here as well.
151
618139
3010
10:21
It is great to have your company on Wednesday.
152
621149
5402
10:26
As I mentioned on Sunday,
153
626551
3028
10:29
the year is now going by very quickly.
154
629579
3244
10:32
I don't know if it's the same thing with you, but I always feel that after September arrives, the rest of the year goes by very, very fast.
155
632823
11775
10:44
I think. So.
156
644598
3512
10:48
Valery says, I understand if you learn English during your sport, you can actually
157
648110
7593
10:56
integrate it better.
158
656723
3094
10:59
I think by that you mean you can learn it better.
159
659817
3630
11:03
Well, can I just tell you something
160
663447
2375
11:06
quite often when I'm not
161
666775
4081
11:10
thinking about what to talk about in my lessons, sometimes I do other things because I find that
162
670856
8730
11:20
that particular type of distraction is very good for for allowing your brain to to rest and have a little bit of fun.
163
680757
10136
11:31
So sometimes if I'm having a difficult time thinking of something to talk about in my lesson,
164
691411
5787
11:37
I will sometimes go for a walk or do something else.
165
697281
3931
11:41
Well, sometimes in the middle of the night I will wake up suddenly
166
701212
5803
11:47
and I will have a great idea.
167
707551
4432
11:51
For something to talk about.
168
711983
3178
11:55
So I normally get up in the middle of the night, and I will write things down on a piece of paper.
169
715161
5368
12:00
In fact, I did it last night.
170
720529
2308
12:02
I actually wrote something down on a piece of paper last night for me to talk about in one of my upcoming lessons
171
722837
8530
12:12
here in Brazil, we are living under.
172
732621
2927
12:15
Oh, I know a lot of countries at the moment.
173
735548
4332
12:19
A lot of people, are quite worried about the change in the political systems in their own countries.
174
739880
7894
12:27
I know some people are worried about it here, to be honest.
175
747774
4449
12:32
Anyway, this is not the place for politics.
176
752223
4365
12:36
We don't talk about politics here.
177
756588
5620
12:42
I keep hearing something moving around in the bushes.
178
762208
5804
12:48
I can hear something moving around.
179
768480
5670
12:54
I think it might be a deer.
180
774150
4315
12:58
We might have some deer walking around here.
181
778465
5067
13:03
Hello, doppelganger.
182
783532
1271
13:04
No, it isn't Mr. Steve.
183
784803
2242
13:07
Mr. Steve isn't here, unfortunately.
184
787045
3060
13:10
Mr. Steve is somewhere over there
185
790105
4951
13:15
driving around doing his job.
186
795056
3178
13:18
But I am here at the top of the hill, looking over the landscape,
187
798234
3512
13:22
doing my job,
188
802699
2108
13:24
if you can call it a job. Anyway, some people might not.
189
804807
4415
13:29
It might be a hair, Mr. Duncan. It could be.
190
809222
3646
13:32
We do get a lot of rabbits and hares around here as well.
191
812868
5653
13:38
Lots of wildlife.
192
818521
1856
13:40
In fact, there is all sorts of wildlife wandering around, especially at night.
193
820377
5804
13:46
Can I just tell you something?
194
826432
1405
13:47
Now, I know this is very unpleasant, and a lot of people won't want to hear this,
195
827837
5920
13:54
but sometimes in my garden,
196
834962
2843
13:57
especially first thing in the morning when I go outside, I find some very strange poops
197
837805
6606
14:05
in the garden,
198
845967
2642
14:08
and I don't know where they've come from.
199
848609
3663
14:12
I know where they haven't come from.
200
852272
4432
14:16
But I'm not sure who has left those little messages for me.
201
856704
3696
14:21
It could
202
861621
452
14:22
be a badger because we do get a lot of badgers around here as well.
203
862073
5803
14:28
We also get lots of foxes.
204
868010
2860
14:30
So I have seen foxes in my garden at night.
205
870870
4399
14:35
A wonderful sight to see, to be honest with you.
206
875269
3880
14:39
So we do get all sorts of animals, large and small mice.
207
879149
4917
14:44
We get lots of mice around where I live in the garden.
208
884066
5804
14:50
Yes, it could be a fox.
209
890840
1723
14:52
It could also be a badger.
210
892563
3077
14:55
I think actually, I think it might be a puppy left by a badger,
211
895640
6489
15:02
because we do get a lot of badgers coming around here at night.
212
902179
5804
15:08
Giovanni is here. Hello, Giovanni.
213
908401
3680
15:12
It's nice to see you here.
214
912081
2341
15:14
In a very unusual place.
215
914422
1589
15:16
I've never done a live stream from this particular location.
216
916011
5168
15:21
This, apparently is one of the best views around this area, because you can just look out
217
921179
6924
15:29
into the distance
218
929491
2007
15:31
and when the weather is clear, you can see much further away.
219
931498
5135
15:36
You can see a lot of wonderful things.
220
936633
3529
15:40
Oh, oh, guess who's here?
221
940162
4231
15:44
We all know who it is.
222
944393
1924
15:46
Luis Mendez is here today.
223
946317
5251
15:51
Hello, Luis.
224
951568
1205
15:52
Can we all wish you the best?
225
952773
1739
15:54
Because you have been busy this week attending to some personal things, so I hope everything is going okay.
226
954512
8630
16:03
There we are all thinking of you during this time.
227
963142
5335
16:08
Who else is here?
228
968477
3914
16:12
Oh, Giovanni is definitely here.
229
972391
2509
16:14
Yes, there is no doubt about that. I can see you now in the live chat.
230
974900
5368
16:20
How are you doing today? I'm doing okay.
231
980268
2643
16:22
I'm outside.
232
982911
937
16:23
Even though I feel slightly cold.
233
983848
2074
16:25
I don't know why it's actually not very warm.
234
985922
5000
16:30
I think it's only about 13 or 14 Celsius today.
235
990922
4031
16:35
So to be honest with you, I feel as if I should be wearing a coat
236
995990
5620
16:41
of some sort.
237
1001610
2274
16:43
That's okay Luis, just stay for a few moments.
238
1003884
3144
16:47
It's fine by me.
239
1007028
5804
16:55
That is not fun.
240
1015374
1472
16:56
By the way, that is
241
1016846
3897
17:00
the military jet.
242
1020743
1856
17:02
One of those little fighter jets flying over.
243
1022599
3429
17:06
I think they're doing lots of exercises at the moment.
244
1026028
3981
17:10
Maybe they are preparing for something.
245
1030009
4432
17:14
I always get worried when we hear lots of fighter jets flying over.
246
1034441
5419
17:19
Now he's gone.
247
1039860
2659
17:22
And sometimes if you go to Wales, sometimes the fighter jets will go so fast
248
1042519
5135
17:27
they actually break the sound barrier and you get this, what they call a sonic boom.
249
1047654
5803
17:34
As they pass the sound barrier, it makes a loud bang and apparently it is the most amazing sound in the world.
250
1054344
9064
17:45
Yes, there are a few planes, a few aeroplanes, jet fighters flying over.
251
1065951
6238
17:52
I hope they are not armed.
252
1072189
3178
17:55
Maybe they are looking for me.
253
1075367
2860
17:58
Hello, Donna Ventura, hello to you.
254
1078227
3412
18:01
Thank you for this live stream from such an amazing place.
255
1081639
4231
18:05
I have to say, and I know I've said it many times, but I'm going to say it again.
256
1085870
5804
18:11
I love living here.
257
1091690
3697
18:15
Every morning I wake up, I open the curtains and I look outside and I normally stay there.
258
1095387
7074
18:22
I stand there looking at the view
259
1102461
3847
18:26
for normally around five minutes.
260
1106308
2994
18:29
I will stand there just watching, watching everything
261
1109302
4382
18:33
in amazement because I still can't believe after all these years that I live in this place.
262
1113684
8346
18:42
It is magnificent.
263
1122565
1890
18:44
Of course it is not as good. It is not as nice
264
1124455
3596
18:49
as Tuscany.
265
1129857
3295
18:53
For example.
266
1133152
3328
18:56
Somebody asked Mr.
267
1136480
1773
18:58
Duncan, when you visited Tuscany, did you see sting?
268
1138253
4616
19:02
I didn't see sting.
269
1142869
1572
19:04
No, I know he lives there.
270
1144441
1673
19:06
I think he's got a he's got a vineyard in Tuscany.
271
1146114
4264
19:10
But I have to say, I did not see sting.
272
1150378
3028
19:13
Unfortunately.
273
1153406
2575
19:15
We could have we could have had a little bit of a sing song together.
274
1155981
5486
19:21
And do doo doo doo doo dah dah dah is all I want to say to you.
275
1161467
5737
19:27
Message. You know. Bottle.
276
1167204
4616
19:31
that sort of thing.
277
1171820
3847
19:35
My route SEO is here today.
278
1175667
2341
19:38
Hello, Marut SEO, thank you very much for joining my live stream.
279
1178008
3981
19:41
Coming to you from the top of a hill overlooking the beautiful landscape.
280
1181989
6907
19:49
Look at the landscape today. We are so lucky to be able to see this today.
281
1189431
5101
19:56
When I woke up this morning, the sun was out
282
1196071
3295
19:59
and it was absolutely gorgeous and I thought, wow, we are going to have the most amazing live stream today.
283
1199366
8279
20:08
But then when I got up here,
284
1208849
2960
20:11
the sun disappeared.
285
1211809
3964
20:15
It vanished and now all I have are grey
286
1215773
3446
20:19
clouds over my head.
287
1219219
5803
20:26
A sarma.
288
1226728
1070
20:27
Are you living in Wales, Mr. Duncan?
289
1227798
3162
20:30
I have to be honest with you.
290
1230960
1555
20:32
I am not very far away from Wales.
291
1232515
3094
20:35
In fact, just over there in the distance.
292
1235609
5101
20:40
Is Wales.
293
1240710
1857
20:42
Just over there. So over those hills.
294
1242567
4716
20:47
That is virtually Wales.
295
1247283
5001
20:52
So we are not very far away from Wales.
296
1252284
2492
20:54
If we got in the car it would take less than 40 or 50 minutes to actually be in Wales.
297
1254776
8697
21:03
So one of the wonderful things about living around here is of course I can get
298
1263841
5636
21:10
to Wales very quickly by car, so it's not very far away.
299
1270497
4700
21:15
In fact we can, we can almost
300
1275197
3880
21:19
within 1.5 hours.
301
1279077
2425
21:21
I think we can almost get to the coast,
302
1281502
3697
21:25
get to the sea in about one 1.5 hours, maybe 1 in 3 quarter hours, we can actually be at the seaside.
303
1285199
9633
21:35
So that gives you some idea how close we are to Wales.
304
1295301
5803
21:44
Ferry boats is here.
305
1304031
2107
21:46
Hello ferry boats? Yes, you are right. There are lots of wheatfields behind me.
306
1306138
5520
21:51
So all of these fields, including that one and that one and that one over there, they are all wheat fields.
307
1311658
9232
22:01
Although
308
1321592
1823
22:03
I'm not sure.
309
1323415
1171
22:04
I think they've they've all been harvested because last week many farmers
310
1324586
6473
22:11
around this area, they were all out very busy doing the harvest.
311
1331059
5970
22:18
Hello.
312
1338953
2793
22:21
Elle Habib.
313
1341746
1773
22:23
Hello, Elle Habib. It's nice to see you here.
314
1343519
3412
22:26
Good day to you.
315
1346931
903
22:27
Have you been to Devonshire?
316
1347834
2040
22:29
It is one of the best regions in England.
317
1349874
2844
22:32
Devon is a wonderful place.
318
1352718
2759
22:35
And yes, I have been to to South Devon, right next to the sea.
319
1355477
6607
22:42
So there are some wonderful places to visit around the UK.
320
1362870
4833
22:47
And yes, you are right, you are correct.
321
1367703
3195
22:50
Devon is a wonderful place.
322
1370898
2625
22:53
Way down south South east coast is where Devon is.
323
1373523
6389
23:02
Many beautiful places.
324
1382521
1522
23:04
In fact, I've just remembered many years ago
325
1384043
5587
23:09
I made a lesson
326
1389630
3144
23:12
in Devon on the south coast.
327
1392774
3094
23:15
I almost forgot about it.
328
1395868
2576
23:18
I think the title is By the Sea.
329
1398444
2408
23:20
It was called and I think I made it around. Oh,
330
1400852
5001
23:27
maybe
331
1407291
1656
23:28
13 years ago, 14 or even 15 years ago.
332
1408947
5904
23:35
I think it was 15 years ago that I made that lesson.
333
1415252
5486
23:40
Can you believe it?
334
1420738
1505
23:42
I can't anyway.
335
1422243
4065
23:46
Hello, Abu Omar, what about Exeter?
336
1426308
4415
23:50
Hello. About Exeter.
337
1430723
2124
23:52
I've never been to Exeter.
338
1432847
2325
23:55
So that is another region of the UK.
339
1435172
2659
23:57
I've never been to Exeter. Definitely not.
340
1437831
5168
24:02
Not for any particular reason.
341
1442999
2241
24:05
Not because I don't want to go to Exeter.
342
1445240
3211
24:08
I just I've just never been there, to be honest with you.
343
1448451
4031
24:12
I've never been to Exeter
344
1452482
3629
24:16
at all.
345
1456111
2275
24:18
But if you ever come to the UK, can I just give you a recommendation?
346
1458386
5804
24:24
Go to Wales.
347
1464859
1923
24:26
Wales is the most wonderful place.
348
1466782
4231
24:31
Some of the most scenic views you can imagine.
349
1471013
4081
24:35
Also, another good thing about Wales is there aren't many people living there,
350
1475094
5670
24:40
so you can go to very large areas where there are virtually no people at all.
351
1480764
5636
24:46
It's a little bit like Shropshire because this area in which I live,
352
1486400
4349
24:51
the population is very sparse.
353
1491836
5737
24:57
The word sparse, it means there are not much or not many of a particular thing.
354
1497573
7877
25:05
So the population here is not large in Shropshire,
355
1505868
5670
25:11
which means each person has much more space for themselves.
356
1511538
5804
25:17
As you can see behind me.
357
1517609
2442
25:20
Yes, yes, there would appear to be quite a lot of space here.
358
1520051
5787
25:27
I think I would like to build a house.
359
1527444
1622
25:29
And where? Over there with a nice view.
360
1529066
4315
25:33
Or maybe over there. That would be nice.
361
1533381
3629
25:37
In fact, anywhere around here, I would love to build a house and have a wonderful view.
362
1537010
6088
25:43
Would not be nice, I think. So.
363
1543098
5553
25:48
Wales has a famous football player named Bale.
364
1548651
4683
25:53
I think you mean.
365
1553334
1288
25:54
Do you mean? Oh.
366
1554622
5736
26:00
I don't know much about football.
367
1560358
1623
26:01
I want to say Gareth.
368
1561981
1472
26:04
Is it Gareth Bale?
369
1564623
4215
26:08
If I'm right about that.
370
1568838
3663
26:12
I will be very surprised because I don't really know much about football.
371
1572501
4499
26:17
But I do know that there is someone who plays for England.
372
1577000
5803
26:23
I think his name is Gareth Bale.
373
1583121
4482
26:27
That's all I know.
374
1587603
3262
26:30
That is my knowledge of football.
375
1590865
5519
26:36
Oh, apparently.
376
1596384
1388
26:37
Apparently I'm right.
377
1597772
2091
26:39
He plays for Tottenham, Tottenham.
378
1599863
3746
26:43
When I was young we used to call them Tottenham Hotspur.
379
1603609
5804
26:49
I think they just called them Tottenham.
380
1609680
1556
26:51
Now Tottenham.
381
1611236
1923
26:53
But my dad used to watch the football on television quite a lot and I remember there was a team called Tottenham Hotspur.
382
1613159
7978
27:02
They used to call them the Spurs.
383
1622391
4299
27:06
And that is it.
384
1626690
836
27:07
That is
385
1627526
1555
27:09
a little bit more of my football knowledge.
386
1629081
3095
27:12
There isn't much, by the way, so please don't misunderstand me.
387
1632176
4348
27:17
For all
388
1637628
485
27:18
those who think that maybe I am now a football expert,
389
1638113
5803
27:24
I'm not a football expert.
390
1644117
2609
27:26
Trust me.
391
1646726
1957
27:28
But apparently yes, he does play for Tottenham.
392
1648683
3228
27:31
Tottenham.
393
1651911
1773
27:33
Mr. Duncan, I could visit Cardiff in Wales.
394
1653684
4683
27:38
I liked it very much and I want to continue visiting other cities there.
395
1658367
6874
27:45
Wales is amazing now.
396
1665592
2342
27:47
Most people almost forget about North Wales.
397
1667934
4984
27:52
North Wales is incredible.
398
1672918
2809
27:55
There is some wonderful coastline and lots of lovely places by the sea.
399
1675727
5804
28:02
But if you go inland, there are also lots of nice places to visit and stay at as well, including a lovely place that we often go to.
400
1682066
8664
28:11
You know where it is,
401
1691064
2258
28:13
Lake Verne.
402
1693322
836
28:14
We in Wales, a wonderful place.
403
1694158
5001
28:19
Palmira asks does Much Wenlock have a railway station?
404
1699159
5252
28:24
No it doesn't. It used to.
405
1704411
2709
28:41
Charming.
406
1721688
2023
28:43
It used to have a railway station.
407
1723711
5118
28:48
I think it was 19.
408
1728829
2710
28:51
I want to say 1967.
409
1731539
3328
28:54
The railway station in Much Wenlock closed down.
410
1734867
4047
28:58
The railway station is still there.
411
1738914
2576
29:01
However, it is now a private house.
412
1741490
3211
29:04
So there are people now living in the old railway station.
413
1744701
4416
29:09
But yes, they used to be a very regular train service to Much Wenlock.
414
1749117
5971
29:15
But then in the 1960s, many small railway stations were closed down because they were not seen as profitable.
415
1755589
9634
29:26
So that is the reason why.
416
1766461
5452
29:31
It seems today we are not having a company
417
1771913
4198
29:36
with Mr. Duncan or Miss and Mr. Steve.
418
1776111
3696
29:39
Oh with Mr.. Steve.
419
1779807
1405
29:41
Mr.. Steve is busy today.
420
1781212
1890
29:43
He's working because it's Wednesday and it's during the week.
421
1783102
5804
29:49
Mr.. Steve has to work.
422
1789290
1890
29:52
He doesn't have to work but he does.
423
1792434
5804
29:58
I think maybe, perhaps
424
1798823
3663
30:02
Mr. Steve likes to continue working so he can stay away from me.
425
1802486
4616
30:07
I think so
426
1807102
1706
30:08
are there any species of snake in your area? Hello, Nico.
427
1808808
4750
30:13
There are no
428
1813558
3479
30:17
poisonous snakes around here in this area.
429
1817037
5335
30:22
No snakes.
430
1822372
937
30:23
Although you might see some grass snakes occasionally.
431
1823309
5302
30:28
I've seen a couple of grass snakes over the past couple of years, and they just go by and then they vanish.
432
1828611
8345
30:36
They disappear.
433
1836956
1823
30:38
So there are some grass snakes, but they are quite harmless.
434
1838779
5369
30:44
If you leave them alone.
435
1844148
3964
30:48
They will leave you alone.
436
1848112
2258
30:50
But no, we don't really have any dangerous animals.
437
1850370
3529
30:53
I was talking about this subject with Mr. Steve a few days ago.
438
1853899
4867
30:58
I was saying to Steve, how easy it is now to walk around.
439
1858766
5435
31:04
We are so lucky here because we don't have to worry about any animals jumping out
440
1864201
5603
31:09
and attacking us, so we don't actually have any dangerous animals, mainly because we killed them all.
441
1869804
6807
31:17
We used to have
442
1877966
1204
31:19
dangerous animals, wild animals, bears, large beasts
443
1879170
5787
31:25
that would take great pleasure in tearing your face off.
444
1885609
2911
31:28
But nowadays we don't because we killed them all.
445
1888520
5703
31:34
I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
446
1894223
5285
31:39
It is, as we say in English, a double edged sword.
447
1899508
4466
31:43
Sometimes something good can have also a bad consequence.
448
1903974
6455
31:51
Something bad
449
1911149
3211
31:54
might also have a good consequence.
450
1914360
3060
31:57
So we sometimes describe that type of thing as a double edged sword.
451
1917420
5938
32:07
I do like the lady.
452
1927071
1505
32:08
And do you know the show that is taking place near you?
453
1928576
5302
32:13
I'm not sure if that means me.
454
1933878
4449
32:18
Oh, Mr. Duncan, Giovanni.
455
1938327
1973
32:20
Mr. Duncan, I like watching a crime show called Viera. I often watch it.
456
1940300
5770
32:26
Oh, yes.
457
1946070
1338
32:27
Yes, there is a TV show about a lady and she investigates crimes.
458
1947408
7861
32:35
The actress, by the way, is called Brenda Blethyn.
459
1955721
3880
32:39
But it's not an easy name to say.
460
1959601
2642
32:43
Bless.
461
1963230
836
32:44
Let's bless Lynn.
462
1964066
2576
32:46
Brenda breath wrestling.
463
1966642
3546
32:50
I think she's Welsh.
464
1970188
1973
32:52
I have a feeling she is a Welsh actress.
465
1972161
2727
32:54
But you are right.
466
1974888
1990
32:56
Yes, I think the series is still running, but I think at the moment it is.
467
1976878
4265
33:01
It is the final series.
468
1981143
1789
33:02
Personally, I don't watch it, but I am always interested in what actors and actresses are doing.
469
1982932
6155
33:09
So that's the reason why I know that. But I've never seen it.
470
1989472
3545
33:13
I've never seen the actual show.
471
1993017
2543
33:15
But I do know
472
1995560
2826
33:18
that programme exists, and I certainly do know the actress as well.
473
1998386
7710
33:28
England has Loch Ness.
474
2008772
5453
33:34
Well, to be honest with you, that is Scotland.
475
2014225
2793
33:37
So up in Scotland, way up north in Scotland.
476
2017018
5803
33:43
There is a legend
477
2023908
2743
33:46
of a large monster living in a place called Loch Ness,
478
2026651
4767
33:51
one of the many areas where there are huge expanses of water.
479
2031418
6623
33:58
They are literally trapped
480
2038593
1823
34:01
within, within the
481
2041520
1656
34:03
mountainous areas between the valleys, and they are often referred to as lochs.
482
2043176
5803
34:09
So Loch Ness is a place where there is supposed to be a monster.
483
2049113
5804
34:15
Some people over the years have said that they've seen the monster,
484
2055151
5251
34:20
but I think nowadays I think a lot of people just think it's it's a myth, it's superstition.
485
2060402
5837
34:28
It is a legend.
486
2068263
2425
34:30
You might say.
487
2070688
2124
34:32
Faribault. Yes. Her name is a mouthful.
488
2072812
4600
34:37
If something is very hard to say, we can describe it as a mouthful.
489
2077412
5787
34:43
Maybe a difficult word.
490
2083282
1840
34:45
Maybe a person's name is very hard to say.
491
2085122
4399
34:49
We can say that word
492
2089521
3244
34:52
is a mouthful.
493
2092765
2308
34:55
It is very hard
494
2095073
2609
34:57
to pronounce.
495
2097682
5804
35:04
Who else is here?
496
2104556
1054
35:05
I'm trying to see the live chat.
497
2105610
4081
35:09
I don't know why the live chat looks very small today. I'm actually having difficulty
498
2109691
4917
35:15
seeing what is written on the screen.
499
2115679
4482
35:20
For those wondering.
500
2120161
987
35:21
By the way, I am with you again on Sunday.
501
2121148
5937
35:27
Every Sunday I do a live stream from 2 p.m.
502
2127537
4850
35:32
UK time, so that is when I'm normally on on Sunday.
503
2132387
4265
35:36
You can catch me live on Sunday
504
2136652
3662
35:40
from 2 p.m.
505
2140314
1205
35:41
UK time and we can have some fun together.
506
2141519
4047
35:45
Not only that, you don't just get me,
507
2145566
3262
35:48
you also get Mr. Steve as well.
508
2148828
2676
35:51
So we will be together on Sunday having a little bit of fun, a little bit of, I don't know, I like to have a laugh.
509
2151504
7509
35:59
I like to have a little bit of fun.
510
2159849
2877
36:02
It would appear these days that many people don't like to have fun.
511
2162726
5185
36:07
They don't like to have a laugh.
512
2167911
2860
36:10
But to be honest with you, I love doing it.
513
2170771
2191
36:12
I love having a smile on my face.
514
2172962
3328
36:17
It does make the day go much better, to be honest with you.
515
2177461
5787
36:23
I will be going in a few moments.
516
2183733
1756
36:25
So this is a very short live stream, but I think you will agree
517
2185489
5586
36:31
it is also a very nice place.
518
2191075
2525
36:33
So even though I'm only on for a short time today, look at that.
519
2193600
4550
36:38
Look at the amazing view we have today.
520
2198150
5368
36:43
Incredible!
521
2203518
1004
36:44
I can't believe how lucky I am to have this lovely view.
522
2204522
6088
36:55
I've been with you now for 37 minutes.
523
2215159
3763
36:58
Is it really 37 minutes?
524
2218922
3295
37:02
Have you ever been to Latin America?
525
2222217
2425
37:04
I've never been to that part of the world.
526
2224642
3027
37:07
I suppose the closest I've been is South-East Asia.
527
2227669
4265
37:11
I think that's the nearest I've been.
528
2231934
4014
37:15
I know it's not the same direction, but I think that's the nearest I've ever been in Southeast Asia.
529
2235948
6004
37:21
I've been to places like Singapore and also Malaysia.
530
2241952
3780
37:25
I've been to Malaysia many times in the past.
531
2245732
4349
37:30
I used to go there quite a lot.
532
2250081
2291
37:34
Are there
533
2254379
418
37:34
any nice and interesting events like markets or local products celebrating in your area?
534
2254797
5804
37:40
Giovanni,
535
2260701
2827
37:43
I have some news for you and this is something I actually forgot to tell you.
536
2263528
5786
37:49
So Giovanni, can I first of all say thank you for reminding me
537
2269314
4867
37:54
on Saturday.
538
2274181
1857
37:56
This Saturday
539
2276038
2994
37:59
we are going to the Cotswolds.
540
2279032
3395
38:02
We are actually going to the place where Mr.
541
2282427
2425
38:04
Steve was raised as a child because they are having a special fair.
542
2284852
5804
38:10
They're having a big festival
543
2290706
3094
38:13
there.
544
2293800
418
38:14
There will be lots of.
545
2294218
5135
38:19
It will be lots of food, lots of animals, lots of farming equipment.
546
2299353
6288
38:25
And apparently there will be lots of people there. So that is where we are going on Saturday.
547
2305641
5553
38:31
Now I'm going to do some filming there, but I'm hoping that I will be able to do a live stream from that actual place.
548
2311194
9065
38:40
But of course it all depends on the signal.
549
2320878
3846
38:45
So if there's no signal, I won't be able to do it.
550
2325778
3395
38:49
But if there is a good signal, like here today,
551
2329173
5085
38:54
I will do a live stream.
552
2334258
1722
38:55
Not only will I be with Steve, I'm also going to be with his sister and his brother in law.
553
2335980
6473
39:02
Although I have a feeling, I have a feeling they will not be appearing on camera because they are shy.
554
2342838
6723
39:10
So even though I will not be alone, I will be with Steve on Saturday.
555
2350581
5804
39:19
We will see what happens.
556
2359462
2074
39:21
If there is a good signal, I will be doing that.
557
2361536
5302
39:26
It will be a place where Mr. Steve was raised as a child.
558
2366838
3730
39:30
It is a place where Mr. Steve grew up.
559
2370568
4549
39:35
The Cotswolds, a very beautiful scenic place.
560
2375117
5435
39:40
So that is where we are going to be on Saturday.
561
2380552
2793
39:43
And of course, as I mentioned a few moments ago, I will be with you as well.
562
2383345
3847
39:47
On Sunday we have the live stream from 2 p.m.
563
2387192
3680
39:50
UK time, so it looks as if I have quite a busy weekend coming up.
564
2390872
5787
39:56
I hope you will be able to join us then.
565
2396659
2826
40:02
The live chat.
566
2402211
2860
40:05
It is a wonderful area indeed.
567
2405071
1907
40:06
Apparently the place where the last Father Brown
568
2406978
4566
40:11
took place.
569
2411544
3362
40:14
Father Brown I am not sure if I saw that TV show, but I think I know who you mean.
570
2414906
7024
40:22
I think he was the guy who was.
571
2422532
5603
40:28
The father of one of the characters in Harry Potter.
572
2428135
5285
40:33
Am I right about that?
573
2433420
1773
40:35
I can't remember his name, but yes, he was. He was in Harry Potter
574
2435193
5419
40:40
and also in a TV show called Father Brown.
575
2440612
5803
40:48
I keep hearing some very strange noises.
576
2448238
5654
40:53
I am almost certain
577
2453892
2408
40:56
there is some animal watching me.
578
2456300
3094
40:59
By the way, I am surrounded by fresh fruit growing all around me.
579
2459394
6004
41:05
Would you like to have a look?
580
2465398
1104
41:06
Wait there.
581
2466502
535
41:07
I will pick some fruit and show you.
582
2467037
2710
41:09
Wait that. Don't go away. Just. I'm just going down there.
583
2469747
3596
41:16
Oh. What do we have here?
584
2476788
4365
41:21
Oh, they're very messy.
585
2481153
3981
41:25
Yeah.
586
2485134
485
41:25
Okay.
587
2485619
5803
41:32
Here we go.
588
2492576
1372
41:33
Look at that.
589
2493948
3245
41:37
look at that.
590
2497193
1923
41:39
Now I always want to say these are blackberries.
591
2499116
2275
41:41
Are they blackberries? I think they're blackberries aren't they. I always get them confused.
592
2501391
5251
41:46
Mr.. Steve had to correct me the other day because I kept calling them the wrong name.
593
2506642
4750
41:51
Blackberries. Can you see on they. Lovely.
594
2511392
3780
41:55
I'm not going to eat it because it might be covered in poison.
595
2515172
4951
42:00
Maybe a fox has had a pea on it, so I'm not going to eat it.
596
2520123
5335
42:05
But there we go.
597
2525458
602
42:06
BlackBerry. Yes, Mr. Duncan, you are right.
598
2526060
5151
42:11
I always get blackberries,
599
2531211
4048
42:15
raspberries and blueberries mixed up
600
2535259
5502
42:20
because they all have the word berry at the end. You say.
601
2540761
3747
42:24
So there you can see that is that is fresh. That is wild.
602
2544508
3813
42:29
It's also very messy as well.
603
2549492
2542
42:32
But I'm not going to eat it because I think it might be a little dangerous.
604
2552034
4148
42:36
So I will put it back on the floor and maybe later a passing fox or a badger
605
2556182
6589
42:43
will come along and they will say, oh, look at this.
606
2563942
4800
42:48
This is very delicious, very nice.
607
2568742
3278
42:52
And then they will go to my back garden and they will have a poop there,
608
2572020
4499
42:56
which I will find tomorrow morning.
609
2576519
5804
43:02
Can we say grapes?
610
2582958
1840
43:04
I suppose they are a type of fruit that you can make into juice.
611
2584798
5804
43:10
You can squeeze
612
2590919
2660
43:13
those different types of fruit.
613
2593579
3629
43:17
I'm very distracted here by spider.
614
2597208
2408
43:19
There was a spider on my hat.
615
2599616
4048
43:23
It's hanging down. Can you see it? There is a spider.
616
2603664
2793
43:27
It's hanging in front of my eye.
617
2607410
4901
43:32
That is. That is rather annoying.
618
2612311
2191
43:34
I don't know why.
619
2614502
769
43:35
Whenever I go into the countryside, I always get spiders
620
2615271
5804
43:41
on my
621
2621576
2041
43:43
hat hanging around.
622
2623617
3813
43:47
Apparently foxes do not eat blackberries.
623
2627430
5787
43:58
So now we know
624
2638017
1940
43:59
you live and learn.
625
2639957
1238
44:01
You live and learn.
626
2641195
1555
44:02
Just a moment. I have to wipe my hand now because I'm covered.
627
2642750
4650
44:07
Can you see what's happened?
628
2647400
1020
44:08
I'm now covered with all this horrible stuff all over my hand.
629
2648420
6874
44:15
Wait there.
630
2655294
2910
44:18
Mum! That's it.
631
2658204
2409
44:20
Let me just clean my hands a moment.
632
2660613
5786
44:31
Here we go.
633
2671467
636
44:32
I have something to wipe my hands.
634
2672103
3897
44:36
Oh I hope you've enjoyed today's live stream.
635
2676000
4131
44:40
It's been something a bit different today. Something slightly different.
636
2680131
4231
44:44
Something unusual I don't normally do live streams outside on Wednesday,
637
2684362
6941
44:51
but today I thought I would because the weather seemed quite pleasant.
638
2691303
5870
44:57
And to be honest with you,
639
2697508
1355
45:00
it's much nicer being outside than you think.
640
2700535
3328
45:03
It's much nicer being outside than being indoors.
641
2703863
5804
45:12
And the air is rather fresh today.
642
2712828
1773
45:14
I have to say the air is lovely.
643
2714601
1622
45:16
I'm breathing in the fresh air and it's making me feel rather nice if I was honest with you.
644
2716223
5804
45:22
I hope today's live stream has made you feel nice as well, and I will be going in a moment.
645
2722863
6506
45:31
So if you can join us on Saturday,
646
2731878
4214
45:36
if we can get a signal on my phone, we will do a live stream from the Cotswolds.
647
2736092
8396
45:45
From the area in which Mr. Steve was raised as a child.
648
2745024
4867
45:49
If not, if we can't do that, I will do some filming anyway and show it to you on Sunday.
649
2749891
5786
45:55
So there we go. Is it a deal?
650
2755861
2626
45:58
I think so, I think it's a good, good deal.
651
2758487
3931
46:02
See you soon. I'm going now.
652
2762418
1990
46:04
I hope you've enjoyed this rather short live stream, but at least I'm here and at least you are there.
653
2764408
7877
46:13
So that's all it matters when you think about it.
654
2773857
3981
46:17
Thank you very much for joining me.
655
2777838
1656
46:19
I hope you've had some good fun.
656
2779494
2525
46:22
I hope you've enjoyed the view as well.
657
2782019
2091
46:24
I will leave you with one last look
658
2784110
4231
46:28
of the landscape around me. Oh, very nice.
659
2788341
4081
46:32
Look at that. Wow.
660
2792422
5804
46:38
It's just a pity that the sun didn't come out.
661
2798661
3161
46:41
I was hoping that the sun would come out, but,
662
2801822
3696
46:45
you know what they say in life, you can't have everything.
663
2805518
3880
46:49
Sometimes you have to just be thankful for what you have.
664
2809398
5235
46:54
So I'm thankful for this.
665
2814633
2208
46:56
Thanks a lot.
666
2816841
4114
47:00
This is great, I like it, I like it very much.
667
2820955
4917
47:05
This is Mr.
668
2825872
669
47:06
Duncan in the birthplace of the English language saying thank you for watching.
669
2826541
5419
47:11
See you on Saturday. Maybe
670
2831960
2609
47:15
if I can get a signal and see you on Sunday for the live stream.
671
2835539
5402
47:20
And yes, Mr. Steve will be joining us as well.
672
2840941
4734
47:25
And of course, until the next time we meet here, you know what's coming next.
673
2845675
5853
47:31
Yes, you do take care of yourselves. Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday.
674
2851528
4583
47:36
Have a super duper time and I will catch you right here on my YouTube channel very, very soon.
675
2856111
7894
47:44
And of course, until the next time you know what's coming next...
676
2864390
4399
48:00
ta ta for now
677
2880831
1956
48:02
enjoy the rest of your Wednesday.
