Interesting to hear this chat about the show ???? The general consensus was rb was the more approachable out of the two!! Certainly not the case from my point of view. I too have visited the guesthouse from the film and had a lengthy chat with the owner a couple of years ago, who told me that James Bolam used to sit and read books to her kids during the making of the film.

That's probably the way round they said it to me as well maybe got it jumbled round lol. I was very surprised when they had lived there when the filming took place which was an absolute bonus ????????
They also got out an album with loads of photos from when the filming took place ..

Great to see and hear about the guest house lads cheers. I've heard they do some smashing Fish and Chips up in Whitely Bay and the town is not as bleak as it looks in the film.
