I like RobWords and think he's done some stuff for the BBC in the past hence the v comfortable presenting style he has perhaps. Also really reminds me of Steve Coogan lol.

A few pretty well known ones I regularly watch

This House

Dry, narration only but well researched info on notable/classic-arc homes across the US. Recently did a 'biggest existing lived in building in each State'.

Tweedy Pubs

Research on (mostly) London pubs past and present from an affable ale guzzler

BBC Archive

Phil Edwards

Interesting questions, usually around US brands/product/cultural history answered by ex-Vox dude

Johnny Harris

J Draper honestly heroic, she does a lot queer and/or working-class London history content as well, not just your Tudors and Victorias.

Love that Little Victorian Boy channel, rewatched this one at least ten times now
