100 Lives


What makes you angry? What couldn't you live without? And what's your happiest memory?

In 100 Lives the BBC in the North East is taking 100 people from all walks of life to help to give a snapshot of life in the north-east of England in 2009. Our hopes, fears, likes, dislikes and ambitions.

BBC Newcastle will be using the panel to gather opinions on all sorts of topics over the year.
