Forth Banks has been there for centuries, the police station on it must be pretty recent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35660 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I was in that bit approaching the Tyne Bridge last week. Spent about 10 minutes circumnavigating Gateshead town centre to move 100 yards as the crow flies. The final, hilarious straw coming when West Street turns into a bus lane before that magic roundabout near the Tyne Bridge, meaning to avoid a fine you have to turn left towards the new Tesco and double back.

Rayvin 5329 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I think the anger is probably fair enough, combined with some sort of 'bad day' I guess, but the repeated reference to what he clearly sees as 'non-jobs' or people being unemployed is not a good look.

I've worked with a lot of TV presenters over the years and the ones that just get on with it, are polite and act normal, get to enjoy life without a lot of grief. It's always the arrogant cunts that bring it on themselves and inevitably they do something like this, then their career is fucked and they end up disappearing into PR, Marketing or the like and they no longer have to worry about someone pulling faces behind the camera when they are "trying to do important work!" A simple, "excuse me mate? Could you please stop that?" works a treat and if it doesn't get your camera person to turn the camera around and start shooting them being the knob usually stops them quick.
