Mark Steel's in Town Series 2
Episode 5 of 6

Home of the Angel of the North, Blaydon races and top innovations. Mark discovers what makes Gateshead distinctive. From May 2010.

Comedian Mark Steel travels to Gateshead to perform to locals who under no circumstances want their town to be confused with Newcastle.

Whilst up there Mark enjoys a memorable night out in a local pub; a telling-off in the Baltic Art Gallery, a visit to the Angel of The North and an ugly car park that some people want to preserve because of its role in a grisly murder. From May 2010.
