NewNiceMrMe Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) I stand corrected. It used the likes of the wall and Metro station (of Byker) but was indeed mainly filmed in a house in Benwell. They're about 3 miles apart as the crow flies, but yes I'd agree it might be said they could be classed as the other side of the City. After Byker on the east and Benwell on the west you start to get into what many wouldn't class as Newcastle itself. Wallsend on one side, Scotswood on the other. It all depends on what you class as "Newcastle". Like many places, people tend to say they're from Newcastle even if they're from Wallsend, Longbenton, wherever - just because it is easier and people know it. A bit like people from London - even though they might live in the likes of Twickenham etc. Edited August 28, 2015 by NewNiceMrMe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 My sister stayed in Benwell when she went to Uni as far as I remember. 5 girls all stayed in the same house and when they left after 4 years ( they all became dentists) they worked out they could have paid for the house in the rent they paid it was that cheap, and the rent was buttons at the time as well. Was always good to go up there as a younger brother and stay in the house and go for nights out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God I would have loved to do a factory collection but sadly I'm away for two weeks now on my hols and really go no more time off until Xmas so it just will not be possible. I was expecting the RS to be end of October to start of November however with the recent engine troubles I have a feeling there may be a delay.

I am sure there wouldl be enough volunteers on TSN to enable one of us (all) to go, collect and gently drive it back for you. No trouble at all........ Anything for a fellow TSNer eh! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't caught up on all the internet speculation however from what I can understand a purple car and white car have caught on fire. There are pics somewhere. Causes unknown !
