James Nesbitt had Geordies everywhere cheering at their TV screens on Sunday night, when he gave a shout out to Newcastle Brown Ale at the Coronation Concert.
After King Charles III's actual Coronation at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, millions more viewers tuned into BBC One on Sunday night to watch the star studded event from Windsor Castle. It had been well documented for a while that the likes of Take That, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie would be performing at the concert, but Cold Feet actor James Nesbitt's appearance came as more of a surprise.
As cities including Newcastle, Cardiff and Edinburgh got set to star in the Light Up the Nation segment of proceedings, James appeared on screen for a tribute which featured a number of nods to different parts of the country, and his brief reference to Newcastle included a line about the city's famous export.
