- ITV Tyne-Tees news bulletin of 12th September, 1991, followed by Channel Four News excerpt from the following day. During the evening of the 12th, some out of control youths had firebombed a pub and some derelict houses in the western district of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Tyne-Tees gives brief reportage, whilst the Channel Four contribution contains some analysis. Look out for a youthful Jon Snow as well as some 1980s gigantic glasses.
"firemen were stoned"
Worst handbrake turns I've ever seen
Old 1980s 3 door Vauxhall astra .common police car used from 1988 up to 1998.love the 1990s forever.
I wasnt born till 1992 feels nice watching this tottally different to now.
Didn't feel nice at the time, I can assure you
I don’t know why I left this comment
🤣🤣
i used to live in Buckingham street in early 80s houses long gone now
Madness burning a pub down?
I remember watching the fires from my window - I lived on Newcastle quayside.............
I was there,remember it very well.
Is that wor Keith ?
I remember this, people were doing crime all over the newc cos they knew the police were busy with the riots lol
I stayed home in case I got burgled lol
I remember seeing a stolen car driving like a luni, with spray paint on saying "Come and catch me if you can" lol
Back then they'd steel 4-5 cars per night
Hence why insurance for cars went thru the roof then
the problem was the joyriders newcastle at that time was the ram raid capital of the world and they were rioting over police tactics in dealing with the joyriders they had a habit of forcing them off the road but it was the joyriders and the police there
I lived there for years in northbourne st was a great community. Very happy times, good people.
No one had a lot
lot less after?
That's cos it's a shithole nobody's got anything now. I'd be surprised if there is anyone in the whole place that works. All Dole dossers and tramps

No wonder the whole thing went up when even the firemen were stoned! SMH
A display of so-called hotting
Never heard of it, I must of been a scotchie hotter ???
Remember this was living in cruddas park
I was 20 then no guns not many knives there was still respect and a old fashioned punch up
Still respect???? You're joking mate
i remember this
Mad wasn't It ?was only young at the time nowt would happen like that these days. I think this spelt the end of Scotswood Elswick and Benwell the government wanted the estates disbanded. All them places are ghost towns a lot of it is pulled down. It took them a few years but they done it.
The early 90s really were grim.
Hotting what the fuck ha ha. Hoisty motor gid up up
Chored motor was the correct term or TWOC'd.
@@neilt7145hoisty motor like i said
So stolen? Scumbag stuff. @@peternufc1981
The polices paid informers having a poor attempt at handbrake turns.

Glynis was always good for a ride when we where younger.
Really a good night ,,, sad
I had a good friend whom was a nurse at the Newcastle general Hospital back in the day. Contrary to what some one posted. I met a cop from the West end who was a decent guy. Called Mick Scanlon. Built like a brick Crap house. He was , as he put it a 'tutor '' constable back in the day. Still remember the name of the cop he was teaching. A Cop called PC Millward. Now he '''Was an Arrogant & up his own ass,cop , who clearly didnt want to be based in Newcastle. Told us he was from Liverpool. as I remember. ( My oppo supported Millwall , thats how I remember the name) Dare say they are both retired now.
I used to drink in dodds
West end has always been on top
It's one of the weakest places I've ever been. Everyone seems to think they're hard based entirely on geography and football team.
banter
jk jk this is shocking
Wey up the toon⚫️⚪️😂
Up the scotchi lads
Stew Slip Are you illiterate.?
Place has always been a shit hole. Fire probably improved the place!
