http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-13581236 MTV reality show Geordie Shore, which follows a group of party-loving friends in Newcastle, has come under fire for the way it portrays the city. Newcastle Central MP Chi Onwurah said it was "bordering on pornographic". The local tourism board said it relied on "outdated stereotypes" and had provoked a "fierce reaction" among locals. MTV declined to comment. The show, a British version of the hit US series Jersey Shore, follows the antics of eight sex-obsessed friends as they drink, vomit, fight and strip off in the hot tub. The first episode was watched by 330,000 people on Tuesday - the channel's largest adult audience for three years. ************************************************************* Classy Did any of you scum enjoy it? Joker you must have been so proud!
I've been to the nightclub scene in Newcastle and the slappers that crawl out on a Saturday night ought to be a tourist attraction.
Didn't watch it and from what I've heard I'm glad I didn't. 2 of the vain ****s are from Sunderland and Middlesbrough FFS. They're not even Geordies. Apparently one of them said that 'You're not a Geordie if you haven't got a sun tan.' What a load of ****ing ****e.
