The Ancient World in London - Colchester (5/25)

[MrBarmybob]

What a great lace for people who love history,this is a place steeped in tradition and what i call touch feely history.stones and walls etc.I will try to have at least a day here soon.Didn't humpty dumpty originate here too?

[hundhun17]

Colchester is big enough to be a city. Its got a lot going for it, great location, commuter distance, great history loads of abandoned building suitable for renovation.. Its a shame the town never lives up to its full potential. A lot could be done to liven the place up and add some culture and character. The place is waiting for some sort of planning, Its certainly not a very inviting, charismatic or exciting place at the moment.

That's my Dad! :D I didn't tell me about this video! :p

[shortarse123]

The mosaic that keeps getting shown isn't very old, it was made a few years ago by me/people at my school when the roman circus was found.

[magicbrainman]

ON the style of the video they can can it. too fast too quick scene changes the music it is Fkd up doccumentaries should not be like this. Good content but bad style. not for anyone over 15 years old

Colchester.... Over crowded with people jamming up the roads on their way to the shops. The man driving with his arm wrapped around the top of the steering wheel, like a monkey on a tyre, the woman in the passenger seat staring gormlessly into space. The town is full of new build houses that have been occupied by the benefit taking unemployable. Don't take your family into the town centre after 6pm, it's just full of fighting, alcohol and drugs. I got out!

[NiamhAndAbi]

@runfatboy75 Well you can shut up!! i live in colchester and its a very friendly place, No drugs atall, Hardly any fighting, And like every other town the achahol is in the pubs or at TESCO!! Its a very popular place and you probably have never been you just want to sture up trubble :/

[JamesWaton]

[norristerse]

[thunderpassion]

You would burn down the docks, or any roman ship trying to dock anywhere in the u.k.

queen boudicca should have done this from the start so they could never settle.

my guess is the romans were friendly at first and waiting for there numbers to grow and then show there true colours and then conquer the country!

you live and learn in the end!!

[FarisMee]

Col U. should Red (not blu) in recognition of your Red Brick Roman architecture.

[colutd1]

[hebiakatsuki]

i've stood in that roman circus for a school trip

[HowlScythe]

well i would burn down the "churches" first

[SamCarruthers1986]

I'd burn The Temple of Claudius, killed everyone in Colchester and then steal their women.

[Plutozium]

I'd burn down anything necessary to get my hands on that bird on the right.

[wilbzify]

[Fluffijan]

what kind of question is that?

[Sorrytodisappointyou]

We don't know the amount of treasures we walk on everyday, especially in a city like London.

[theseaflows]

I'd go for canary wharf first..those stuck up bankers..have got a lot to answer for !! Then I'd go for Parliament !! muwahahahaha!!!! Guy Fawkes Rules !!

[mcseaniew]

Oh, and I'd definitely burn down Villa Park....

But yeah, Parliament's not a bad shout! Who's seats would you burn down though? I'd do that duck castle guy's, save a bit of cash...

[madness400]

[MalcolmJHK]

I'd burn down the disco, for starters. The I'd hang the blessed DJ.

Colchester looks quite nice. I'd maybe spare Colchester.

[NixFav]

Ruddy loved it Jamie! Keep 'em coming x

[praddles]

I'd burn down The Valley stadium. Or Battersea Power Station. Mwhahaha.

[nickmarshall2001]

I love watching a documentry showing all the places me and my mates used to drink. :)

If I wanted to elimate the romans I would burn down any sort of supply or administrative building!

[fig697]

If I was Boudicca I would torch all the speed cameras. Then the chariot fun would begin!

[OurSamFilms]

I'd burn down terrorists cause them guys are jerks!

[mcseaniew]

I'd burn down the Millennium Dome - I saw Michael Bolton there, and he was proper rubbish
