BEST CITY IN THE WORLD!!!❤

I was born in the Princess Mary Hospital on City Road in the centre of Newcastle in 1969 and I've never left. The city has changed but not as much as the people. And no, it's not immigration. It's the amount of snobs and kids who have no respect. I still live in a council house but the once lovely area is now like Bogota. As a young lad, nobody cared if you were skint, if your garden was a bit untidy or whether you were in work or had a car etc. Now it's like our neighbours are strangers, the youngsters never play outside, the teenagers all smoke weed and the elderly are scared. The people my age seem like privileged snobs with there only source of entertainment being fake tan, teeth from Turkey and Facebook gossip.

Bobby Thompson wasn’t from Newcastle and certainly was not a geordie- get your facts right

Beautifully put together! Thanks for this

I loved the clips of Scottish country dancing sneaked into the Newcastle night life section

Bobby Thompson wasn’t from Newcastle, he was from Sunderland.

Love watching the Mackems telling the girls on holiday that they're Geordies, cause no one knows wtf mackems are 😂

Paddy's market 5:30 on the quey side Sunday mornings was a great way to get rid of a hangover, especially in winter, hot Bovril and listening to the street hawkers, it doesn't happen now, it is a big a miss,

That was wonderful. I’ve lived far far away from Newcastle for two decades but am forever proud to be a Geordie and of our people ❤

It a 💩 hole now

Bobby Thompson was a Mackem, born in bloody Washington, ya kna, that place where the durty Wear runs through

never got to see Bobby Thompson sadly!

Loved this proud to be a geordie ⚫ ⚪

1:16 one thing Geordies hate is people talking down to them and belittling them./Us!!

Bobby Thompson ain’t a Geordie. He’s a mackem.

Great to see this! The Dragons were in Felling Gateshead & their Italian Ice Cream was gorgeous! I also recognised Sean Kelly from Heworth standing with his moustache he was proud of having. 😄 Canny lad is Sean. It really is great to watch these of my home Newcastle Upon Tyne & boy how things have changed! Walking around anywhere in geordieland now & you don't really know what country your in!!! 😳 Britain no longer. 😡 The UNITED NATIONS it is. Broken Britain 😏😔

I wasn't from Newcastle. I visited the 'Oxford Galleries' nightclub in the late 60's! Wow. I never went again--pretty much a 'bearpit'!~

My g/ ma adored little bobby thompson 😃.

My favourite City I'm committing suicide there on Wednesday had enough of my life.

Ah, great memories.....thanks for sharing

Quayside market 1970s. King sized quilt, set of Egyptian cotton towels, a set of non stick pans £2 no wait, I'll throw in an electric kettle and a small family car as well...! 😊

Wonderful video. I am proud to be from Newcastle upon Tyne fantastic memories as a child , but sadly, my culture and my country are slowly being destroyed by imagination and the evils of Islam, It is a true disgrace , people it is time to take back are city and are country for the betterment of our children future.

The music on this is lush. Especially 18:16 "One Last Look Around The House Before We Go......." By Kate Bush. Great video! 🔥💖

Ahhhhhhhhhh, the good old days where women dressed like women, and our town was a pleasure to go to. Not like today. This was back when our town was a thriving hub full of small businesses and bargains galore. Where there was plenty of choice and lots of diversity. Today the town is a sh** hole. The city centre has been taken over by giant conglomerates (INTU) and have turned the place into an eyesore. The shops are all gone, due to high rents, and small businesses can no longer afford to be there. The Grainger Market is empty, with very little choice any more, and every little stall that closes is being turned into yet another eating place, as if we didn't already have enough. The entire bottom (and part of the top end) of Eldon Square is now full of over priced, over rated eating places which are all empty. The streets are absolutely FILTHY and never cleaned and litter abounds as well as giant rubbish bins that sit all over the streets. There are times when I walk down Grainger Street and my feet literally stick to the pavement. When was the last time anyone saw a street sweeper in town? Gallowgate and St James Boulevard are now LEGO LAND and full of nasty looking, ugly buildings for students and still more being constructed. Our city has been and is being systematically destroyed. The Brewery is gone, the Co-Op is gone and the magnificent building turned into an eye saw that matches the ugly GATE white elephant. Our town is a wasteland now full of students, migrants, drunks and druggies and is no longer a place of history and beauty. It's filthy and ugly and empty. And don't let me even get started on the Bigg Market. That is a disgrace. But, thanks for the memories.

depressing..

Oh newcastle is dead and buried long gone, ours is not ours now it was given away to others it's there's, we have only memories and how dare we have them ,thanks for fantastic footage without this we have no proof of how it USED !!!to be , even Billy Connoly has changed he's now an emergency luvie he came to admire our bridge

Not be meany Geordies left soon, the GOV flooded Newcastle beware.

Smith plundered poor community’s throughout never to recover leaving their friends and family’s

That's class! Who made it ? Is there more?

place has had a nigerian MP for the last 20 years ........sewer ..........!!!

Bobby Thompson spotted on the quayside market there at 5.44.

Well done Andy, we're all obliged to you for this fine journal of Newcastle history and heritage, the birthplace of my grandfather Allen.

The fine borough of Newcastle, the birthplace of my grandfather in 1887, before he and his family sailed to America several years later. Still stayed a proud Geordie nevertheless!

Ive been exiled from Geordieland for 55 years and its still my home. Love you Newcastle, love all you Geordies 💕

Great documentary

...before 'multi-cultural' diversity destroyed britain .... R I P .....

Saw him way back at Hetton Big club very funny, the place was packed.

Home❤️Born in the General..Proud of my roots👍

Bobby Thompson..Geordie comic? He's From Penshaw. BBCs about as bright as a two watt bulb.

The Irony is that the Little Waster 'Bobby Thompson' wasn't even a GEORDIE, from Penshaw, in Sunderland how ironic is that, trying to make out a Mackem is a GEORDIE Lol Haway The Lads!

Msg for Rog leave our accent alone and bugger off.

Is there no archive footage of ships being launched in Wallsend? All you ever see is some titled posh layabout who's never done a day's work smashing a bottle against the hull.

I reckon the drummer in the Handyside Arcade scene is Paul Nichols?????

Rog don't feel sorry for us we love our accent :-)

I feel sorry for Geordies, it must be awful having an accent like their's, that no matter where in the world you went, and how long you stayed there, you just couldn't get rid of that accent.

Brilliant 👍🇬🇧

This is brilliant, thank you so much 👍👍👍

I was lucky enough to see LITTLE BOBBY THOMPSON many times around the 60 s _ 70s he was good .he would have you splittling your sides with laughter all night. Try searching his name .

Love this ... ohhh to go back to the good ole days of the PUB.
