I watched this in Moscow last year. Very impressive. When you think of the sheer numbers of Russian dead in both world wars - millions - it's a very sombre moment to stand at that tomb.

I wonder why the tomb needs to be guarded. In France and Belgium where millions of soldiers are buiried, cemeteries and monuments are beautiful, peaceful places of respectful silence. There is no ceremony other than on Armistice Day, then it's just prayer. To introduce soldiers marching up and d...

Germany was defeated by the Russians, the Allies just helped a bit. Read a history book. I just wonder why people claim we didn't lose in Vietnam. 58,000 young men lost to their familes and the Vietcong still finished up in Saigon. All the bombs, the Agent Orange - nothing stopped them. A few d...

I like this song because it celebrates my country. England. Not Britain.

A very powerful song with a wonderful tune. Moves me every time I hear it. I'm just glad we still have composers who can write stuff like this.

That overhang looks terrifying to negotiate. I wonder how Fred laddered it first time?

Great chimney though. As Fred pointed out, how did the builders get those big stones up. You'd have to rig a pretty complex system to move them into place - that's after you'd got them up there.

My old man was fished out of the Atlantic after his ship was torpedoed. Thirty men were lost. Back and forward between Liverpool and the States, with the threat of submarines all the way back. The strain must have been fantastic but these men never broke. They regarded the danger as part of their...

Worth getting. A masterpiece.

I think people mourned Diana mainly because she'd been well and truly turned over by the Royal family. The sight of her two boys at the funeral was really what most people found upsetting. I'm not a supporter of the Royal family but was genuinely moved by people throwing flowers in front of the h...

Britain made plenty of mistakes in it's history. The Empire, where the sun never set and the blood never dried, was it's main one. It could have achieved as much just by it's technology. And there were grubby underhanded acts aplenty along the way. But right or wrong it's my country and I think t...

This guy is behaving like a hysterical skank. How the fuck does he think acting like that is going to make anybody respect him. They'd be pussies if they did. Real DIs behave like they're about to break your nose, not tear up your kit. They don't make empty threats. They say " Get round behind t...

But how lucky we were to have Mel Gibson. And ErrolCusterDickbrain III - you're probably Mescan or a Dago or a Kraut or an Afro anyway - so you go home pal. At least the British left. You don't have the right to diss anyone if your name ain't Thunder Cloud. We are the only real Mercans. You ain...

Britain enlisted men of every country to the ranks of it's army. People then were looking for a job with food and pay and weren't too worried about nationalism or the cause they were fighting for. Mercenaries have been around for longer than we think.

Had the pleasure of being attached to the Taffs for a year. Fine body of lads. Serious boozers!!

Manc turd.

The Trench. UK 1999.

I looked this video up today after learning of the death of Maynard Hill. What an acheivement this was. RIP Mr Hill. And hats off to your back up team.

It was the Woodentops treatment of their oddjob man Sam that turned me into an active trade unionist in later years. Look, the bastards couldn't even give him a chair.

Although we'll never really know what it really looked like, I'd imagine this can't be that inaccurate a reconstruction of the charge. Fantastic film, imagine trying to make it today. Raglan was a virtual geriatric while Lucan and Cardigan loathed each other. A disaster waiting to happen. Amazed ...

Great performer, great songwriter. Left us way too early. RIP Billy, from another Haliburton St kid.

John, you've still got it mate! Loved this song since I first heard it all those years ago.

Love this song. Wellington was a lucky man. He had an army made up of English, Scots, Welsh and Irish men. The same men who wrote their names in the mountains, swamps and deserts of the world and left their language there. All that's left of four centuries of soldiering are dusty relics in glas...

Scotland doesn't really want an idependence vote - Salmond just has to keep pretending it does. If the Scots really wanted it to take place it could have been organised years ago. And any regard the English ever had for it's people has long, long gone, swept away by the continual " Ah hate En...

Lovely smile girl. Hope you have a nice time in England. Lots to see outside London.

He seemed to have got into it okay. I drive a truck to Southwest France every week from Manchester and switch from one side of the road to the other without a hitch when I get off the ferry. It's not as difficult as Americans think it'll be. After a week or so they'll be fine. I think the main pr...

I wonder why Americans regard driving on the left as the wrong side? In Britain we still have sections of road left intact in remote areas that were built by the Romans over 2000 years ago. Archaelogists have determined that carts were driven on the left by the wear on the stonework. So we were d...

Hopefully you'll leave us soon then Amy, when your American or Canadian job materialises. Goodbye.

Fairly standard rural road in any part of Britain really. 40 or 50 would be the normal speed there - you just need to be ready to brake.

I believe she didn't want the basque pictures published. If I was her husband I'd have them on billboards. Looking like that at 50 some. Jeez.

Joking aside, thank Christ for a magician and a guitarist. This could have become a terrible disaster. The captain and his useless officers deserved a jail sentence. The prick even had the gall later to say he'd left the ship to go for help. Where to? Greek cruise lines? Wouldn't piss on them.

It's the real thing alright. Launched in 1765 at a cost today of nearly £5 million. Manned by the finest seamen and gun crews, it was absolutely deadly. Google the Battle of Trafalgar and Admiral Nelson and you'll discover why he and this ship occupy such a prominent spot in the history of Britain.

You know nothing about boxing and are a window licking mong. Go and play with your dolls.

You must remember that we English only ever see you as peasants, held in thrall by an idiotic belief, got second-hand from Russia - where it didn't work either. And the future for China? Remember that when Britain formed it's empire in the 19C, and America formed hers in the 20th, both nations en...

I don't think Ringo had much of an edge over Pete as far as drummers go. Don't forget, session drummer Andy White played on Love Me Do and Please Please Me, not Ringo. Pete was always a bit glum and quiet by all accounts and didn't fit the image that Epstein wanted the Beatles to project. Ringo ...

Why is that idiotic woman laughing? I remember this Letterman tit hosting a show in London a few years ago. As the British didn't know who the f*ck he was, they had to fill the studio with a lot of American tourists to do the requiredwhooping and screaming at everything he said.

Best has lived i...

They'd gone by the time I was old enough to blag my way in. Smelly, stuffy, smoley, a fire risk - but I never felt atmosphere like The Cavern anywhere else. It was electric. In the years that followed some of the giants of music came to play there, just to say they'd done so.

The new Cavern is...

Best track by one of the best groups from that period. Alan Clarke had a fantastic, voice, their harmonising was just out of this world, instruments were so sharp. They were just perfect. They stuck to 3 minute pop songs for too long I think and didn't move on really. I think that's why Graham Na...

I'm not a European and don't want to be one. I'm English. That's my race. I don't want to have any connection with the Scots, Welsh or the Irish or any other nation. I have the same disregard for those people as they have for mine. So that makes us quits.

IRA. Biggest bunch of whingers on earth. Only brave when they had some innocent b*stard blindfolded on his knees with a gun at the back of his head in a country lane. Real men eh. Sh*t themselves when arrested. No wonder the Prods kept the boot on them. Lived like pigs, literally. Still do. Bes...

There's nothing the English enjoy more than listening to Scots and Irish whingeing about their history and how they should unite. Music to our ears it is. You can see how much they have in common with each other by going to a Rangers and Celtic game.

korearichie: You're the only bore I can see on here. But you live in the most boring country on earth. Canada. More boring than Austria - if that is possible. Canada is known for...what. Trees? Snow? Literature - don't make me laugh. Culture...what ...Mounties? Music...defintely not. Canoeing ma...

Not really. India's system prior to the British arrival was one of the most unfair societies on earth. Fabulous wealth enjoyed by the tiny few, starvation, poverty, disease, lack of education. I think Indians would regard the exchange of the history and culture - maharajas and their palaces - f...

Honey, never mind the insults from the charmless and the ignorant. You have a dream in your head but the images you seem to have of England are not the whole story. There are lots of bits of it that aren't so nice. There's lots of unemployment here too, just like the States and lots of run down a...
