Behold: our new video, on our new day of Wednesdays. Go comment, go watch, and - importantly - please give this a hype! We loved putting this chaos together, and - as you'll see - it's full of unscheduled interactions with the locals... much to our eternal shame and pain.

48 Hours in Southend-on-Sea 🌊 The Pier, The Ratman & The Secret Sunken Ship (travel vlog)

We spent 48 hours in Southend-on-Sea, Essex’s most famous seaside town — a place of beaches, arcades, and the world’s longest pleasure pier. But behind the sticks of rock and seagulls lies many strange secrets… In this misguided UK travel vlog we explore: 🔹 Walking Southend Pier 🌊 🔹 Sampling the local ice cream 🍦 🔹 Investigating the eerie legend of the Southend Ratman 🐀 🔹 Discovering the dangerous secret of the SS Richard Montgomery, a sunken WW2 munitions ship just off the coast 🚢 Is Southend just another chaotic British seaside town — or is the city doomed by its secrets? Join us for a mix of travel, history, food, folklore, and chaos in our latest misguided adventure. #SouthendOnSea #UKTravel #SeasideTown #TravelVlog #Essex #BritishHistory #Ratman #RichardMontgomery * For blogs and behind the scenes stuff, find us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/MrBiffo * Have a listen to our stupid podcast Bubblegun! https://open.acast.com/networks/60076578795a1c638da16ff4/shows/682217cb27cd622638da76d2 * Find Paul on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/mrbiffo.bsky.social * Connect with us on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/the_mr_biffo? and https://www.instagram.com/thursdaysfae/ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - Tourist Attraction: Southend Pier 17:25 - Food: Rossi’s Ice Cream 21:02 - Five Free Things To Do In Southend 22:38 - Folklore: The Ratman of Southend 28:43 - Folklore: The Werewolf of Southend 32:34 - The SS Richard Montgomery 40:10 - Souvenirs!

I wasn’t aware of the sunken ship with unexploded munitions off the coast, good to learn something. I’ve also never heard of Essex Tea before now.

Ben Hall

Is this where we comment to (potentially) get the teabags? Because I don't like tea

D'oh! Thanks for the reminder! I have been hyperfocused elsewhere for the past week. I shall do a separate post now for the T's and P's! ~ Sanja
