Nine pictures of life in South Tyneside in 2003 as we rewind almost two decades

Can you believe it was 19 years since these photos were taken.

It is time to re-live the memories with a look back at scenes which also include a bean bath on Red Nose Day and the Cookson Festival parade.

There are faces galore to recognise so why not join us as we step back in time.
