ITV: Great Characters – Vera

Every single time I see this amazing little promo for Vera I totally love it! So much so I felt I needed to appreciate it in this blog post. Brenda Blethyn is truly outstanding as Vera with the series set in the North East and filmed on many locations. I love to watch it and try to spot moments which are in South Shields!

I feel her Geordie accent is always spot on and impressive, it’s great to see different locations in the North East shown throughout this tv series. Plus an older woman in the leading role is always a good thing too!

X-Factor 2009 – Vote Joe !!!

Yes, I have been watching the X-Factor for the past 12 weeks or so . . . but I have only kept watching the whole time because Joe McElderry has gotten all the way to the final and will find out if he is the winner of the 2009 X-Factor tomorrow night.

Why do I want Joe to win? – He is from the same town in the North East England which I am from South Shields . . . and him being on the show really has created such a buzz around the town and it is really just fantastic.

Tonight’s first part of the final was very emotional, and yes I was crying . . . a Geordie thing? Possibly?

Joe sung with George Michael, who Joe totally out sung . . .

Bring on the final chapter of his story tomorrow night and lets hope we see him announced the winner of the X-Factor 2009!
