Newcastle news - nothing important happened today

- Gateshead Council has premiered a series of short films commissioned to celebrate the Angel of the North’s tenth anniversary and look at what the sculpture means to the local community.
- Not sure where to catch your bus when from you reach Gateshead Interchange? Well just to make things interesting, from next week buses will be stopping at different stands for up to 10 weeks while roads within the bus station are resurfaced.
- An obesity map for the UK using data from GP practices has been produced to show where the most overweight people live. Parts of the North East, including Gateshead and South Shields are among the most obese towns in the country.
- Plenty going on in Gateshead today, then. Not so in Whitley Bay, which has seemingly been hit by a news drought, judging by the town’s top story.
