    When pubs were pubs, you'd go for a canny night out, a good drink, some warmth from the fire and a good natter to sort the troubles of the world out, brilliant !

    Bob Fairless is my Grandad!! I never had the chance to meet him but I have been told many stories about him including the sing songs with his fellow musicians such as in this clip! Its fantastic to see it for myself, I wish the camera focused on him a little as it only briefly catches sight of him in the background.

    The pub is still there but now called the Schooner and is very, very popular! It’s behind and below Gateshead stadium. It’s very much like the Tyne Bar and both have similar clientele and book the same bands and of course do a wide range of real ales. There are some high thin trees (poplars?) which hide it from the Newcastle side of the river and spoil what would probably be a great view. I suspect their roots hold the bank in place though so that's why they're there!

Tyneside writers Tom and Connie Pickard also feature - Tom as the young man arriving by car, Connie as the young woman. The two singers came from Rowlands Gill.

    Old reed pattern glass in the doors and windows. Often used to replace Victorian engraved glass that was broken in WW2 or during fights.

    This is very strange. I was given an old tape recording only months ago with my Father (now deceased) singing with these men. The tape lasted a half hour with music recorded in a local pub and was recorded in the early sixties. The gent at the Bar Is Arnold Carter from Rowlands Gill and the piano player is Bob Fairless. They sang songs like Mule Train and also did an impression of Gerry Colona a Hollywood Star of the time. They were hilarious.

      Anthony -- this is just the most amazing find! You don't by any chance have a copy of that old tape recording? I would love to hear more of this duo, as I'm sure many would. What a voice on Bob Fairless! If you have a digital copy of the tape I'd be honoured to hear it. O

    No, it was on the other (Gateshead) side. I shouldn't think it's still there, but I can't find any reference to it at all after 1971. What an amazing, atmospheric film though.

      It's still there - it's now called the Schooner - it's been heavily remodelled on the inside, but is very recognisable on the outside.

    Of course these days most of those people are no longer wlcome in pubs. They lead an unhealthy lifestyle as no must be banished to the footpath ( for now ).
