BBC Question Time viewers have been left furious by the way Newcastle was portrayed on Thursday's show.
The representation of the city was viewed as so 'sickening' that some viewers had to switch off the show and some vowed never to visit the area. One person was so disgusted they wrote on social media: "Note to self, avoid Newcastle like the plague.
"This was the most sickening Question Time I have watched. I truly fear for humanity." A flurry of people were quick to defend the city, while many claimed the audience was not representative of Geordies, and she later posted an apology.
