    Accents.

    There's a clip of the Actor Jason Isaacs being interviewed on an American chat show where he does different accents. For scouse he does the Beatles as they sounded at the start of there careers and after they wanted to sound more American and it pretty much explains your point about there accents. It's also possible they toned them down for interviewers to make them easier to understand. I'm from Durham pretty much in the middle of Sunderland and Newcastle and if I talk normally to someone from out of the area they can't understand me, we talk quite fast, I have to slow down to be understood.
  2. It's called The War Game you can see it on BBC4 on i player
  3. I'm not surprised you haven't seen it they originally only broadcast it a couple of times after they made it. Iirc it was filmed and broadcast in 1984 and then again in 1985 for the 40th anniversary of the first nuclear bomb drop along with war games,a similar 1960's programme that was deemed too distressing to be shown at the time. I think it wasn't shown again until the early 2000's. It and War Games were on bbc2 the other day and are probably on i player and wirth a look

  9. I went to work with my Dad one Sunday he was servicing his D8 Dozer iirc it was Stobswood, he was working next to the big drag line Ace of Spades,(same as Big Geordie),the next day at School we went on a mystery tour and drove past Dad's site
  10. Only time we got anywhere was Lumley Club trip,usually Whitley Bay or South Shields
  11. I've got the King Dick set I wasn't sure how useful they'd be but I usually grab them first,
  12. It means they've used a different part of the body eg finger or used an object of some kind
  13. 2.5 miles away,according to Google maps, I moved into this village when I was 6 months old. We left when I was 9 in 1976 to Chester le street,about 3ish miles away, I moved back 7/8 years ago. Furthest I've been away was about 10 miles from here for 4/5 year's.

    Hgv

    I've had my hgv class 2 about 16 years now. I started driving about 25ish years ago on the 7.5 tonners now I'm on an eight wheel tipper. I used to love it,now I'd pack in tomorrow if I could, it's not a healthy lifestyle long hours sitting gives me lots of back knee etc problems. One thing with an hgv licence you'll always find work. I'd go for you're class 1 you've got more choice than just class 2. Rigid trucks you're just a bigger van driver lots of handball or pallet network jobs for class 2 driving. We've got grabs at work some of the places they get trucks into is crazy,back streets in

    RIP Pike

    Ian lavender famous for Dad's Army has died
  18. Out of Town is being repeated on Talking Pictures (ch 82 Freeview) from next Monday 6.30pm then every Monday afterwards. I've seen a few of you mention this show before so I thought I'd put this up for those who'd like to see it again.
  19. Finally found time to watch this thoroughly enjoyed it thanks for the heads up
  20. He was arrested for attacking his wife but he said later he regretted his actions and visited prison's talking about domestic abuse issues. R.I.P David a large part of my childhood
  21. There's no cat C anymore it'll be either cat N or Cat S, N is basically the same as cat C and S means structural damage. If it's a cat S you have to get a new MOT there no Vic check anymore, I'd price the parts up Audi stuff is expensive and check behind the bumper for more damage. Cat cars are usually worth abou 1/3 less than non cat cars and some insurance companies can be funny insuring them
  22. She was 26 and had already had a couple of kids when she appeared in that. RIP Raquel what a shame
  23. It was John Howard if I can find it again I'll try and put a link to the article, there's a picture iirc
  24. I remember going there as a kid in the early 70's, if you went by on the bus you used to be able to see the Giraffes from the the top deck. There was something in the local paper last year (Evening Chronicle iirc) for the 50th anniversary and I'm sure it said most of the animals were bought from (Jimmy?) Chipperfields Circus. It was closed in 1980 due to rising costs and is slowly being covered in houses.
