Delhi Airport impresses British creator:
In the video, Nick explored the airport and spotted shops, pubs, and artwork. He even pointed out an Irish pub behind him.
“There’s also a Budweiser bar. I know those are priorities for British travellers,” he said.
He then went on to show Accessorize from London and Hamley’s, which, though now Indian-owned, began as the world’s oldest toy shop in London. Body Shop was there too.
“Anita Roddick would be so proud to see the Body Shop in Delhi Terminal 1.”
In a light-hearted moment, Nick realised he had left his mobile phone at the airport. Ten minutes later, it was still there.
“Very impressive. So again proof that we're in India,” he adds.
