Super props to the production team for a stellar piece of documentary footage. True, it may be of an unfavourable situation, but future generations will be thankful for the recording of the end of this historical facility.
To think over 40,000 men used to work in that industry, my grandfather started work at Cargo Fleet when he was 14 and retired from the same job at 65, those days are long gone. I myself woked on the Bessemer blast furnace at South Bank, I juse to drive the scale car, it was a great job.

Fantastic. I've spent a few hours videoing this area and will continue to follow the re-growth. 😊
Always get a real Blast watching demolition...
A real shame to see it all go but well done to Thompson’s for a superb bit of filming.
Well done first class local company
Local jobs for the north east
What are they gonna be building here?
Stunning yet poignant.
Don’t vote Tory, if you do this is the result.
