A History of the Geordie Speaking Peoples by ALAN PLATER with Ian Cullen and David Buck
From T. Dan Smith back to the Venerable Bede, 1100 years of the gossip, scandals, successes, disasters and cupidities that happened by the banks of the Tyne and behind the facades of Newcastle. The men and women whose lives are remembered in the programme are played by a company led by David Buck as the eternal Geordie; with Judi Lamb and Lyn Douglas as the women in his family and James Bate as his son.
