16 posts held, back to 11 February 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 2 pages of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 16 posts for this entry, the most recent from 7 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
558 reactions across 16 posts, in 6 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 77.4% of them.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 16 of the 16 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 558 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 16 most recent posts we hold, published 11 February 2026 to 7 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

My next video, the Screaming Skull of Brougham Hall, is now available to supporters on Patreon and will be on YouTube soon. Some might remember last year when The Wessex Nomad and I investigated the legend of the Screaming Skull in Chilton Centello and found it to be real. There are a large number of skulls kept in great houses and halls across the country, and in this video I investigate my second one, just south o…

In the nearby St Stephen’s Church, you’ll also find the ‘Loki Stone’ upon entering. This 10th century Scandinavian carving was found in the chancel during the 1847 restoration. Lots of devils and tricksters in the lore and legends around these parts 👺

Just south of Kirkby Stephen in Westmorland is a stone bridge that doesn’t look too out of the ordinary if you drive across it. But viewed from below there’s an elaborate collapsed cave system. This was known by locals as the Devil’s Grinding Mill, due to the rumbling, churning sounds of the water. It’s said that here the devil forces the damned to work away grinding mustard seeds for all eternity 👹

New Video: The Easington Hare A short video concerning a witch that lived in the village of Easington. Quite a common trope in British folklore for a witch to transform into a hare, and this one is one of the most famous. Filmed on location as always though! 🐇🧙🏻 https://youtu.be/_6mDTkDzdoc?is=p-jWlEcw_IhDYbnT

New Video: The Haunting of Langley Old Hall Not too far from Durham City is the ruins of a Tudor Manor House, long since abandoned. What awful events once took place here though? https://youtu.be/8pDx0aDQ0fk?is=YP1l23rQq4MxM_0N

Tragic news and a bad omen for England. Feels like quite ominous timing too…

New Video: The Ghosts of Dunster Castle Filmed last year when I visited one of Somerset’s most haunted locations with The Wessex Nomad. https://youtu.be/QuiFX5dCses?is=Kj9qNHKHoYlxEpgo

**New episode*** Welcome to our cosy pub 'The Outlaw's Rest'; nestled deep in the rolling hillsides of the English Countryside. A refuge from the troubles of the outside world, sit down, grab a drink and join in the conversation of the day. This episode is about outlaws, and what exactly it is that makes someone an outlaw.

At long last, I’m releasing my video that I filmed in Mandalay, Burma. It’s my first go really at travel vlogging, something I likely won’t do again. But if you’re curious to see what the city looked like after the earthquake then you’ll find this interesting! https://youtu.be/jw7aag7s9DI?si=NISOnK3zJdk8OgdV

***New video*** I investigate a Somerset legend that has a lot of speculation surrounding it. Join me in the rural, mystical land of the Quantocks where dragons are said to roam and where the history and folklore are endless. Many thanks to The Jolly Reiver for producing a section for this video and giving me drone footage to use. Please subscribe to his excellent channel! Watch here - https://youtu.be/Qmd0dX6BgP…

Showing the 12 most recent of 16 posts we hold for @TheJollyReiver. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.

Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 9 September 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
