12 Beloved UK Stores That Don’t Exist Anymore — But We Wish They Did

0:00 A countdown of 12 beloved British high street stores that have closed down. 0:43 Blockbuster 1:57 Our Price 3:12 C&A 4:08 MFI 5:22 Comet 6:37 Littlewoods 8:54 Maplin 10:02 Toys R Us 11:23 Wilco 12:42 BHS 14:17 Woolworths Join me on a nostalgic countdown of 12 beloved British high street stores that disappeared, from Blockbuster and Our Price to Woolworths. I look at how these shops began, the prices people paid, the memories they created and the real reasons they eventually closed. Along the way, I revisit MFI, Comet, Littlewoods, Virgin Megastores, Maplin, Toys R Us, Wilco, BHS and C&A. I also uncover the remarkable story of Woolworths' final pick and mix bag, which sold at auction for £14,500, and ask whether any of these much-missed names could truly return.
