Every town and every village in the country should have a herd (?) of concrete hippos, I think.

Winter warmer train ride at Stephenson’s Railway

We enjoyed a winter warmer trail ride at Stephenson’s Railway so thought I’d share an honest review. I booked the tickets to give us something to do during twixmas and get us out of the house. We made a day of it in North Tyneside enjoying a play date with friends at Acorn and Oak at Newcastle Quays before heading to Stephenson’s Railway for the 3pm winter warmer train ride. About Stephenson’s…

This is another in our occasional series featuring luminaries of stage and screen with a strong personal and/or professional connection with Northeast England, inspired with thanks by @robbielewis. The most recent previous instalment was on brother and sister acting duo Malcolm and Catherine Terris. This time, James Garbutt.

As with some of our previous subjects, there is an unsatisfying lack of biographical information available; James Garbutt seems to have built a solid career over decades without a high public or media profile.

He was born in Houghton-le-Spring, County Durham, in 1925. In World War Two he was an RAF pilot serving in Africa, subsequently worked as an art teacher and became a leading member of the socialist theatre company, Newcastle People’s Theatre, throughout the 1950s and 60s.

He was active in British television between 1969 and 2002, with his breakthrough role in the 1970s BBC blockbuster, The Onedin Line, replacing Brian Rawlinson for season three (only) as Robert Onedin. (It appears that Rawlinson did not want to continue in the role, but for whatever reason returned for season four and remained until they eventually killed off the character).

James Garbutt is perhaps best remembered for his intense performance as Bill Seaton, the prickly patriarch of the Seaton family and veteran pitman who is paralysed in an underground accident, in 39 episodes of the Tyneside social realism drama, When the Boat Comes In (1976-77).

Amongst over 60 recorded screen credits, his other television appearances include three episodes of Doctor Who (Genesis of the Daleks, 1975), Z Cars, Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads, Middlemarch, The Bill, the political drama Bill Brand, and three separate characters over eight episodes of Coronation Street between 1970 and 1997. He also appeared in the Superman: The Movie (1978), starring Christopher Reeve.

In addition to his work for the Newcastle People’s Theatre, his stage appearances include several productions for the Royal Shakespeare Company, including the stage version of Our Friends in the North which preceded the hit televisions series, for the Leeds Theatre Trust, Alexandra Theatre (Birmingham) and Tyneside Theatre Company.

He passed away in 2020, aged 94.

Abderrahim Elmuoden, 20, of Wimslow Close, Wallsend, North Tyneside, admitted offences of violent disorder, arson, burglary at two stores and racially aggravated criminal damage on August 3. He was jailed for three years and nine months. The court heard that Elmuoden threw a tyre on to a fire at a garage where others were causing trouble. He was also present during other scenes of disorder. He was involved in burglaries at the Shoezone and O2 stores. At the O2 shop, he stole mobile phones and was seen on CCTV pictures yanking at the displays in order to remove the phones. He threw a trolley onto a car during another disturbance. Rachel Scott, mitigating, said that Elmuoden was in Hull to see his fiancée. He was a refugee from Morocco and came to this country about three years ago. His immigration status was unknown but he is likely to face deportation. He had no previous convictions. He had made the "biggest mistake of his life" by getting involved in the trouble and he had been diagnosed with anxiety and depression, said Miss Scott.

Throwing him out when he's assimilated so well?
