I visit Newcastle regularly, it's a great city with lots of sights to see.
Agreed!
Newcastle - such a brilliant city centre
I was in Newcastle that day. I can't believe
I missed you.🏴
I live in Newcastle and I feel very proud of my City you could do many long videos of all the history of The Toon ❤
This is a city I've been considering visiting and your video has made me decide to go. Thanks for posting. 👍
What as stunning and grand looking city. I had no idea Newcastle is so nice!
We live slap in the middle of Newcastle and Durham we are truly blessed
I first went to the toon in the 80’s on a Royal Navy minesweeper. My last port of call before I left the navy. I met the wife there. Next time you visit make it between May and October and they actually open Greys monument up and you can climb the 163 steps to get a grand view of the surroundings. Some facts I learnt was his head was hit by lightning in 1941 and was replaced. His right hand has also been replaced.
But the story behind this was the guy who took the hand all the way upto the top to fit it realised it was bigger than his left, but he still fitted it. Take a look next time you go. Lol.
Also my son always says there is only one church in the toon. St James. I am sure you will venture to that side of the toon as well. Thanks for sharing your vlog.
Another really awesome walk around Newcastle today and this

Another great video of NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE | The ultimate tour of Newcastle City Centre✔✔👍👍
Thank you 👍
Thanks for a great video and the Walk round Newcastle loved the buildings/cathedral/castle and the quayside it was lovely seeing Rebecca taking photos.say hi to Rebecca for me Neil hope both are keeping ok
When I first came to live in England I stayed near Newcastle in a small village called "Wide Open" for six months. Spent many a day and night in Newcastle! Lovely city. Neil have you ever done a video on Whitley Bay and the St Mary's lighthouse? I use to go there too to visit the sea! Thanks for another brilliant video! :)
Wow really not what I expected with Newcastle having never been there or seen much of it before, it looks really lovely......I have come up with a new drinking game, take a drink every time for catch Rebecca on camera, tough to hide when you go into full 360 panoramic mode 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
We were in the City centre the day before, a bit more peeps around ,bit still a super city , clean ,people friendly, lots to see both in the centre and down by the waterfront. Great video as well , makes a difference when the Sun is shining, like it was for us on Saturday
I was there the day before the too but didn’t film otherwise might have caught you on camera!
@@GimbalWalkTV no worries 👍
Hi 👋 just us2 saying hi 👋 and thanks you for sharing our beautiful and famous city with all of us watching 👋 den and sue. 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🚌🚌🚌
Such a fantastic city. I love love LOVE Newcastle now!
28 mins in while you and Rebecca was in the castle on the walkway there was a white orb that shot past the camera don't know if you saw it but if you didn't have a look
You'll see a lot of Saint George memorials around. George and the Dragon are the ancient badge of the Fifth of Foot, which became the Northumberland Fusiliers. The local infantry regiment.
I'm a bit biased but Newcastle really IS a fantastic, beautiful city. You captured it very well as you always do with your videos. I was last there in September filming the Shaun the Sheep on the Tyne art trail for my channel. It was right in the middle of that hot spell we had. Shattered when we came home! 😂
I bet!
That hot spell was craaaazy!
I thought my camera was going to melt during that!
There was a time when the area around the keep "The Garth" was a very dangerous place. Newcastle was a City and County in it's own right but the castle was still part of Northumberland so out of reach of the local authorities.
The amount of times that
I've been to Newcastle and I've seen more things through your video. Then when I was really there with the kids.😂🏴
You can give them a guided tour next time now though!
SOME Surprice at the beauty of these building..Tops many in London by my eyes,.From a Londoner Well Done Newcastle..Beauty without the CROWDS..😅
@@ConfusedGrapes-sg3dh Very much so!
If you'd stayed on Mosley Street you can see some of Hadrian's Wall
Hello Neil how are you and Becca love your vidio of Newcastle very interested my friend use to live there and Susan calman has been there from the grand day out that was on channel five best wishes take care stay safe xx ❤😅😅
Hey there
Rebecca says hello!
Susan Calman is one of my favourites! I love her!
Hard to believe now but the swing bridge, up sand hill and along Northumberland street was the route of "The Great North Road" from London to Edinburgh
Great day😊🥰🤣
Yes it was!
I hope you do Liverpool soon
One place I have not been to
It's amazing
Awesome city with amazing buildings ❤
Agreed - it's beautiful isn't it!
What's your favourite UK city?
I have lots I think!
Newcastle, Manchester, Sheffield, London, Bristol etc
I'm happy in most places to be honest!
