The early Mike Figgis film 'Stormy Monday' was set in Newcastle, although my memory of it is rather vague, as it's several years since I saw it. It was quite well received at the time if memory serves.

The excellent television series 'When The Boat Comes In' starring James Bolam was set in Newcastle and its characters were certainly very Geordie.

Some of the main characters in the television series "Auf Wiedersehen Pet" played by Jimmy Nail, Tim Healy and Kevin Whately were also very much Geordie. Newcastle was featured during the series.

The film 'Goal' (2005) was also based in Newcastle.

You can always tell a Geordie film because you just cannot understand what the characters are saying.
