大象传媒 Radio celebrates North East History


Societies from all parts of the North East will be taking part in two local History Fairs as part of a celebration of the heritage of this region.


大象传媒 Radio Newcastle's History Fair will be held at Bede's World, Jarrow, on Saturday 22 March and Sunday 23 March. It is being staged to give local history societies an opportunity to demonstrate their activities to the general public - both in person and on air.


The event will be opened at 10.00am on Saturday 22 March by broadcaster and heritage expert John Grundy. It opens at noon on Sunday 23 March and closes at 4.30pm on both days. Admission is free, including entry to Bede's World Museum and Anglo-Saxon Farm.


The Fair will be featured in a special edition of the Paul Wappat Show live from Bede's World between 10.00am and 1.00pm on Saturday 22 March. The 大象传媒 Bus will also be present at the event, together with Radio Newcastle's local history presenter, Ian Robinson.


大象传媒 Radio Cleveland's History Fair will be held at Captain Cook Birthplace Museum, Middlesbrough on Sunday 23 March. It is open from 9.00am to 4.00pm and admission is also free. There will be a chance for visitors to further their interest in history and hear about local study opportunities.


The 大象传媒 Bus will be at the event demonstrating the use of the internet as a tool for finding out about family and local history as well as offering people a chance to explore the local archives.


The fair will be featured on 大象传媒 Radio Cleveland's Stewart McFarlane Show from 9.00am to noon and the brand new Ask About Gardening, with Brigid Press and Paul Anderson from noon to 2.00pm.


The two fairs form part of a celebration of history in the 大象传媒 North East and Cumbria region that includes three television programmes being broadcast across the UK on 大象传媒 TWO.


A website to accompany the television series, England On Film, also contains more than 200 clips of archive film and recollections of events in the last century.


(The site's address is www.bbc.co.uk/englandonfilm. It will go live on 17 March.)
