You can almost hear the cheers in this gorgeous silent film of VE Day celebrations on the red, white and blue decked streets of Gateshead. As Victory in Europe is officially declared by Churchill at 3pm on May 8th 1945, an off-duty policeman John W. McHugh captures stunning Kodachrome film of the celebrations in Gateshead - flags and bunting strung between terraces, and jubilant women and children (and a few men) gathered for street parties, waving defiant teapots after years of wartime blackout
