HI mate, I grew up in Biddick Hall, South Shields in the late 60' and early 70's. I live in Sydney, Australia now, I went back a couple of years ago, I was so disappointed in what the town centre has turned to...it's lost its soul.You’ve done some great commentary, explaining shops and things like adverts for good old Binns- this stuff would be forgetting in time and you’re saving it. Please post more this stuff is solid social history if you can… Well Done for taking the time out to do this.

@macnet1 Hi Mate ,i didnt do this video i found it on The Internet and reposted it.

I think the original Film was made by Shields Police in the 1950s for road safety.

I lived in Shields but left 32 years ago and i know what you mean about the town centre.
