| Further Information | Gazette snippet states:- "Each public homecoming for James Mitchell is the same - an absolute knockout. The man who has projected the heart of the old North-East into homes all over the country with his television series, "When The Boat Comes In",is one of South Shields best-known home-grown writers. "In town yesterday to open the new library, he was dressed in his best for the civic platform. He said 'I'm absolutely knocked out by the reception. I always am.'" |
