    What a shame, Sunderland could be so good if it tried! I lived there for years when I was at the uni there and I quite enjoyed my time there, you’re better off living closer to St Peter’s really as the bowling alley and cinema complex are close by and they’re decent! I was born and raised in Newcastle however and moved back there and I’ve never looked back really, I’ve only visited Sunderland a couple of times since moving back over to Newcastle and I much prefer it! My husband is from Colchester and that is similar to Sunderland.

    Sunderland city centre has died a death but there are other parts of Sunderland that are nice. The beach area in particular is excellent, it was recently named by the guardian as one of the top 10 in the uk. It's far from the best place in the country but I've certainly been to plenty worse on my travels over the years.

    Sunderland geographically is in a crap place
    Surronded by water and countryside it cant get enough footfall into the centre
    Retail parks within a couple of mile and the outer towns of sunderland like washington for example have own shopping centre and also far easier to get to newcastle from there.
    Look at newcastle it has whole of gateshead spilling in north tyne all the towns of northumberland contributing to it, sunderland has nothing like that to help it.
    Also places like durham its 10 min by train to newcastle and there is about 10 buses per hour also, when there is 1 bus to sunderland and no train.

    Dishonest video, *you filmed this closer to 6pm than to 5pm* it's true that Sunderland is a shadow of its former self but it was always dead after the shops shut and before people came out for the night. Newcastle and Gateshead councils have done a brilliant job on the Quayside. Newcastle City Centre gets better and better. The idiots who run Sunderland didn't even join the bus station to the shopping centre. You have to dodge the seagulls and chavs from Park Lane to the Bridges. Sunder land's Labour councillors could not organise a piss up in a brewery or develop a brewery site without selling off to a private firm then leasing the building back as "their" new Civic Centre. Rotten borough.

      I think you misunderstood what I was getting at with this video.
      It's called Sunderland after 5pm, which means after the shops have closed, and it is quite a boring place to be at this time.
      I agree with everything else that you say, it's not going to be easy to make this city a nice place to be after the bridges locks up, but it needs to be done.
      Many thanks for the comment, I'll continue to make videos about the place as there are many projects underway.

      As a sunderland born man I agree the place is as depressing and miserable as I gets and it's a shame. Cos during the 80s n 90s it was a great place to live. Now the bowling alley has gone and the fairground at the seafront the shipyards even the boozers are closing rapidly now.
