  When Scott said he can't speak French, I thought he was going to let the funky music do the talking.

  Scott, until you highlighted it , I didn’t realise I wanted to stay in the East Cliff Hotel so badly. Surprised the cost wasn’t in Guineas. So many reminders of my childhood, including the Elephant in the reception. And that’s not a joke.

  This was a great video Scott. You are fun to watch. My favourite travel channel. You didn't rush like you did in your last one. This is more like it.

  A great video Scott. Never knew Calais was so huge. A Scott video is not complete with a "keep dreaming" appearing on screen and yep, there it was. Thank you Scott ❤❤❤❤

  Thanks for this one Scott. It brought up so many thoughts and memories. In the heyday of cross channel travel, you&apos;d have special trains from Victoria to Dover Marine, which didn&apos;t stop anywhere else on the way and ditto from Calais Maritime to Paris Nord. I even remember one which I went on as a school kid where there was a kind of through carriage which took you round from Gare du Nord to Gare de Lyon.<br>Had to smile about the Maroile cheese. It really is a stinky thing! Also you commented about the market while you were at the cheese stall that there were no tourists, only locals, just as a lady was talking in Dutch behind you thinking about taking some cheese home with them!<br>Calais is in a pretty poor part of France, yet they manage decent and even free public transport and they manage to put their historical information plaques in 2 languages. Try that in South East England....

  I have stayed in Calais a few times and found it to be a fantastic town, good food, good shopping and very friendly people.
