I haven’t caught up yet but one of my favourite ever shows!

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

Awh, it's just such a part of life up here isn't it x

Brenda B herself has said the locations were stars of the show too..I love the look of the coastline!

lynnestuart.bsky.social•63 days ago

Gonna watch later today. Loved trying to work out the locations. Will miss Vera.

Spot the local ice cream shop ❤️ 🤔

LJ Ross’ DCI Ryan series should pick up where Vera left off.

I’ll miss her and her backdrops, but she deserves a contented retirement.

I’m so glad she adopted the dog.

I got quite emosh. She was in my town too 🫶

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

Awh, it's such a tradition now, isn't it - "Where's that? Whitley Bay!! Corbridge!! My street!!" etc 😢😆

sadiesmam.bsky.social•63 days ago

Eeeeh that's where I park for the river etc, she's been newbiggin, Cambois,bothal, Ashington. Great stuff!!

Don't forget Boro Lollipops we are still North East and Vera has been spotted here.

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

Oh yes, wasn't there one filmed around the Transporter Bridge? I used to live in Boro so also like the 'spot where that is Boro version' 😆

robg7.bsky.social•63 days ago

If only the rest of the country were as friendly as the North East...apart from football of course :-)

Quite a responsibility on her shoulders; knowing that her retiring will mean so much to the staff on the programme, as well as a whole region.

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

Yes, definitely.

resistanceisnow.bsky.social•55 days ago

I’m gutted

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•55 days ago

Yes, a shame!! 😔 x

peteranscombe.bsky.social•63 days ago

A good series, well written by Ann Cleeves. And Vera was a beautiful blend of sweet endearing older woman and a sharp tongued old grouch.

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

Yes she really was.

lindosh.bsky.social•63 days ago

Didn’t come to it til a few months ago and have loved it. Will
miss it. 🥰😢

lindosh.bsky.social•63 days ago

Watching the making of it now. The scenery inspired me to spend some time there last summer.

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

Yes, some amazing scenery 😍

hilsofhove.bsky.social•63 days ago

I haven’t caught up yet.

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

It's pretty good!! ❤️

hilsofhove.bsky.social•63 days ago

Always is.😊

jeannekc.bsky.social•63 days ago

I completely agree with you! I love this show. Such a beautiful taste of my beloved Newcastle.

sunderlandlolly.bsky.social•63 days ago

It really is.

normiewrites.bsky.social•63 days ago

Spot the location was a great pastime and they came round our way a few times.
Great last episode.
