As a born and bred 'Geordie', I found that really enjoyable. Must say, I've seen Newcastle change over the last 30-40 years - and not always for the better.

It’s beautiful and the people have always been beautiful too. Forgotten by London but not forgotten by us Northerners. Great visit Charlie and Laura.

I'm surprised by how many beautiful old buildings Newcastle has.

I had a friend who escaped from North Korea many years ago. I asked him: "How could you live and survive in such an oppressive regime'? He replied:" Oh, I couldn't complain'!

You absolutely nailed it with your opinion on the layout of Gateshead - the council should have been sacked en-masse and replaced with somebody competent.

A hotel for migrants we are becoming Well said charlie Let’s hope a new government will have the balls to spend our money on its own people and on our countries problems

Glad you enjoyed my home city Charlie, it really is the best city on every level, up the toon!!!

“Now go back to china and help the CCP”🤣🤣🤣⛏️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I thoroughly enjoyed that well edited and captured view of Newcastle, it has changed my perception of the City, and amazed at the historic buildings and feel it gives . It felt like Bristol on steroids with a blend of Oxford and London. On my bucket list.

As a resident of Gateshead, I can say the best thing about Gateshead is the view of Newcastle.

I also remember way back in 1978 President Jimmy Carter at the Civic Centre saying Howay The Lds in his speech there

The terracotta thing is a vent for the metro system below

Middlesbrough and stockton just down the road is where u will see the worst of the worst charlie

"American candy stores". The "hide in plain sight" approach to money laundering

Newcastle is fantastic. I’m so glad you enjoyed your visit. Next time try and visit the Laing Art Gallery, it’s a hidden Victorian gem.

I love your walks arround your English towns but i love even more your walks in picadilly gardens and the crackies!! Love to you and Laura from Sweden!!!

God bless you & the fine work you do Charlie!

Brilliant mate I just wish I had known you were here in Newcastle. It would have been good to meet you.

Amazing I've never been to many places and Newcastle is one of them and ain't it a sight ! Those bridges, WoW !

That 'suitably terracotary' thing hides an air vent for the underground section of the Metro system, i believe.

Thank you for visiting my adopted home town. Your video showed me things I haven't seen in seven years of living here. Wish I'd been in town that day to say hello.

Fascinating Veitchian analysis of Gateshead. Cheers

I can assure you that the Herman Goering redevelopment programme was enthusiastically persued in Liverpool.

That area with the graffiti near the Oxford used to be a brilliant nightclub called Maddisons. Oxford was an old nightclub that was named the Ritzy. Glad you pointed out the hideous 60s buildings around our city that will be difficult to demolish

don't look at all the dogs being brought here from all over the EU as "rescue" dogs, giant industry has sprang up over this.

Thanks for the video! I lived in Newcastle for 3 years, nice to see familiar places. Sometimes I miss it's "smaller city" energy compared to Manchester.

Ahh ! my old home town ! how much of it has changed , left there 1980's, great video CV ,as always enjoyed watching it

Good video charlie. You missed stowell street/china town, the bigg market, grainger market, the gate, the bus station, times square/life centre, leazes park and. Of course, st james park!!!...but a good video charlie. I always enjoy your videos.

Charlie, do a video in peterlee town centre. It's in the north east of england. It's a pure dump charlie.

2:06 One of those posh looking buildings is only a facade, it's all hollowed out to provide a vent for the Metro line running underground.

Thanks for another full length tour of town

Maybe you should've checked out the Ouseburn area of the city too. The Graingers market is pretty cool.

Good to see you in Newcastle with your daughter

23:32 that was going to be used as a part of the footbridges across whole of newcastle city centre. It got scrapped only couple footbridges were built as people were scared to walk through at night

49 minutes of entertaining video, cheers, Charlie

If I was ever considering a visit to a town I'd not been to, your channel would be my first port of call. C.V., my kind of tour guide! Awesome! 👍

Come to Stockton, Middlesbrough and Hartlepool to see deprivation and waste of council tax money.

2:25 its an air vent for the monument metro station underneath

Do Middlesbrough next while you’re nearby, might find a few crackies 😂

Tribute to the Stealth bomber statue!!😂 you really do have a unique way of seeing things. 40 years ago I found myself in a flat share in London with Steve Donald one of the founders of Viz magazine he was very interesting to talk to and had worked in the film industry and I always remember him telling me about Newcastle nightlife and the women staggering out of the nightclubs in Sub-Zero temperatures with no coats and high heels and a lot to drink!

A much better encounter than AB had with the armed response in his face 😂

Charlie, Thanks for the enjoyable video. You know, I use to drink Newcastle Brown Ale when it was Brewed and Imported directly from the U.K. Good morning to you both from the U.S.

Grainger town in Newcastle made the city great developed to make the City as great as any of it's rivals, The development of Grainger Town in 1834 was Grainger's biggest project to date and was founded on two key relationships: Richard Grainger's friendship with John Clayton and his relationship with John Dobson, the North East's best architect of the time.

Really enjoyed this video, thank you. I urge you to visit Lincoln, I think you would absolutely love it, a hidden gem.

I say South Wales and Central and North Lancashire are the poorest areas in the UK. Closely followed by The North East, Hull, Grimsby, Dundee..... There's not much in it but you notice it when it's at it's worst.

Liverpool was the 2nd heaviest bombed city during the war with London being first.

Liverpool was absolutely flattened in the blitz.

Wouldn't call Newcastle posh, unless your walking in Jesmond.

Born in Newcastle now live in Cramlington also a lovely place in Northumberland ❤

You need to do Middlesbrough Charlie some right old characters here

Great video footage Charlie 💯👍🏻

Great video of the city i was born and bred, Great to see as i now live in Indonesia Thanks Charlie for this video to remind me how much i miss home

HMS Explorer (P164) has a busy, diverse role which spans training students, getting out there and engaging with the public in smaller ports where large vessels won’t fit, and deploying to the Baltic to work with NATO Allies.

Charlie, Herr Schwab has declared that sovereign countries are NOT ALLOWED and you will be "happy" with that !

The huge bridge over the top of that street gets a lot of jumpers. and I'm not talking the Christmas type

Dean Street (5.07 mins into video) appeared quite a bit in the movie "Stormy Monday" a gangster style movie starring Sting, Tommy Lee Jones, Sean Bean and Melanie Grffith.

Excellent content Mr CV. Now there's all the nookes and cranys for ya!

Would love you to come to the midlands and check out Hinckley, Nuneaton and Bedworth. We've started Bench gangs here as well now. Nothing like that city feel in a small town. Keep the content coming man.

You need a weekend in Belfast. Some nice buildings in the City Centre, however, outside of that a lot of mad places to visit.

Nice tour Veitch. I ain't been here in 15 years. Definitely needs a revisit.

Nice to see you up my neck of the woods Charlie

Being from Manchester i appreciate nice architecture, must say Newcastle a handsome looking city.

Thanks Charlie 😎🎅🎄

Love Newcastle, my granda was Geordie from Gateshead. Newcastle will always have a special place in my heart. You need to go to Durham up Barnard Castle, beautiful !

I love Earl grey Tea Charlie Great video Thanks again

Charlie, you should visit Durham aswell. .

Can't believe I missed you Charlie 😢

Didn't know that former library was there. Why on earth hasn't that been made into a hotel?

Liverpool got it bad it just doesn't get mentioned much as they focus on London

That courthouse looks like a hydraulic press. I don’t think that’s accidental.

Born and bread here in Newcastle and its lush always has been. Gateshead has always been a dump and still as long as I can remember it's been a dive. Would of loved to have seen you but we'll done on the video of my home town and doing it justice on the amazing buildings we have

I'm an x bricklayer Charlie love looking at different city's architecture great vid mate.👍

Thought Arthur Daley had been there flogging camel coats.

the 'empty' building you saw is actually disguised to look like that, its a vent for the train system underneath there

Being from Newcastle myself, ur geordie accent is actually pretty good 😂😂😂 the best iv heard from a non geordie 😅

I think only scousers are aware of how much Liverpool was bombed in the war. It was the 2nd most bombed city after only london mostly cus of the docks

Spot on with your comments on gateshead! Born and bred there, left in 1972 to join the forces and never been back except to bury my parents.Looks even worse now!

I'm a big fan of Newcastle. A timely reminder I need to have a wee holiday break ther next year.

The law courts were built 1988-89 dude. Our city looks quite splendid in your new camera Veitchy 👍

8:23 That's one of the remaining buildings that survived a fire caused by an explosion on the opposite bank. Good pub inside with butcher's tiles.

6:00 Opposite the steps is the Botanist pub. Cosy and decorative. During happy hour they spin a wheel to find out how you pay. Inside is a wooden plaque with a list of Polar Bear Wrestling champions.

Oh my word you were staying in Walker. I grew up in a street right next to Leicester street.

Good tour thanks

IF ONLY I KNEW YOU WERE HERE! GOD DAMN IT CHARLIE THANK YOU FOR VISITING

The UK is Earthen Land. Anyone who is a citizen of Earth is allowed in. All land belongs to everyone.

you need to look at bensham just up from the gateshead highstreet 😂

21:32 Maybe those of the baggy pant variety with matching extra long knee length t-shirts don't like the cold up North.

Stop by in Scarborough.. that would be great content.

I can safely say newcastle ain't a shit hole , it's a wider area, go and call someone in newcastle and you will see the response 😊

From stories my parents related about WWII, Liverpool was indeed severely bombed, along with other spots in The Wirral, because of course Liverpool was a major port for Britain and the area an industrial center. Not these days so much.

I couldn't picture autistic, but that owl is definitely it 😂

Morpeth, Rothbury and Alnwick are nice towns to visit in the NE. Often go there and Kelso at the weekend. No crackies or pan handlers.

41:20 The Tyne bridge is a smaller version of Sydney Harbour bridge, designed by the same architect, but completed several years before the one in Sydney. Late 1920's I think.

That small building near the monument is a ventilation shaft for the metro 👍

Hi Charles it was nice to see you at Piccadilly Gardens!!

Very wholesome, I feel like I've had a cleansing shower...

Haha cheers Charlie it was my comment got you there.... Newcastle is alive and kicking 😁😁😁🤳

Oh and what's that set around the pentagram? That's right, it's a square and compass.

Viz was the best thing to come from there. I used to sell and eliver nightclub tickets to a retired cruise ship there, can't remember its name, something royale, it was a nightclub on a ship.

How did ya end up on dunstanburgh road in Walker? You must know someone there that’s so random lol, wish I’d known you were coming I’d have shown you around😊
