Many people know and associate Newcastle with TV and Film icons Get
Carter, Byker Grove, The Tube and Our Friends in the North.
However, do you know where Ralph Richardson stole money from in
1939? Why a den of spies were living in Jesmond in 1951? Who met
Tommy Lee Jones on the High Level Bridge in 1988? Why Gateshead
High Street was under siege in 2009? and which Newcastle flats seem
to appear in every programme or film made in Newcastle? Media
historian Chris Phipps takes us on his tour of Newcastle's film and
TV covering old favourites like Payroll and Auf Wiedersehen Pet and
shining light on some hidden gems such as The One and Only,
Unconditional and The Clouded Yellow. With contributions from
directors Ken Loach and Bryn Higgins, writers Peter Flannery, Ian
La Frenais and Lee Hall and actors Melanie Hill, Victoria Elliot,
Charlie Hardwick and Dave Johns, this book explores the background
to the filming of many television programmes and films in
Newcastle. Newcastle continues to be the perfect film set, seeing
filming for Vera and Transformers: The Black Knight in 2016. Forget
Carter! What could be next for this photogenic city?'
