@TeamYouTube Pretty poor show of low effort content being stolen directly from popular videos. Check out https://t.co/GbOYG3Dc0J
I'll submit a copyright infringement request, but in the meantime, the whole channel deserves to be taken down. They're ripping off content 100%

😜Some dark #History to start the weekend off. Discover the story behind how just one unscrupulous minister managed the dead during the 1800s in order to cope with the continued overcrowding and poverty in London at the time. https://t.co/NOPiEeSsA1

#History lovers ** Check out some of the secrets of an #Elizabethan manor house in our latest video. @HallHarvington underwent a huge restoration programme in 1929, after the roof collapsed, but now it stands in #Tudor splendour for you to visit https://t.co/CHvvEdF396

We visited the Tunnels of Moose Jaw the other week and were lucky enough to check out their Passage to Fortune tour. As a result, we created a video about the Immigration of the Chinese into Canada to help build the Canadian Pacific railroad. #History

@SimonReadBooks @Pegasus_Books @welbeckpublish When is it due out? Sounds right up my street.

The media hasn't changed much really. We used a couple of these images in a video about the Victims of Jack the Ripper recently, focussing on the lives and living conditions of victims rather than the killer. Some gruesomely murdered for the want of fourpence for a bed.

The gaudy and popular Illustrated Police News (1864-1938) highlights "The London Murder-Scare" at the height of the Jack the Ripper slayings. (Image via @britishlibrary)
