Newcastle was founded in the 2nd century and is the 20th most populated in England. The people of Newcastle are often known as Geordies due to the local dialect. Geordie words include Canny (good) howay (come on) bonny (pretty) and chuffed (happy).

Gateshead lies on the south bank of the River Tyne and is the home of the Gateshead International Stadium – one of the UK’s leading international athletics track. Gateshead was the site of a 2006 100m world record when Asafa Powell ran the distance in 9.77 seconds – the record has since been broken.
