Applicable to new users only. By Crikey! This is the longest YouTube video I have done, and I do not intend to make them this long often! Editing this took two long days and very late nights. People may think that one long continuous shot takes no editing, but there are a lot of graphics, captions, tweaks to the sound and picture, and these all have to be precisely timed and placed. I was probably unwise to pick such enormous topics. One editing idea I had was to include a 'digressionometer' in the bottom corner of the screen, which would slowly count upwards as I added to the ever-mounting burden of digressions. Some of my digressions have digressions. I decided that, amusing though it might have been, it would have been distracting in such a long video. The idea was Dunkirk (Operation Dynamo) and tanks, but Dunkirk does not make sense without the political and military situation to set it in context. My early videos used to make one point, in about three minutes. Those were the days.
