Top Things About The North

Written by Tati

Congratulations to Chris, who is officially debunking to the north to pursue dreams of stardom. Here are some things we all know and love about the north:

George Formby

Minus the socially-acceptable-at-the-time racism that pervades much of la Formby’s work, he is a paragon of charm and talent. May Chris aspire to his dizzying heights of success.

Moors

Who wouldn’t want to be but a short car drive away from those moors and a young Kate Bush? Legend has it, on quiet nights in the north, you can hear her dulcet tones, wailing about the Wuthering, Wuthering, Wuthering Heights. Sometimes you can even hear the wuthering itself.

Gareth Gates

Gareth Gates, pop reality star extraordinaire, is originally from Bradford. And you know what? He’s probably still there.

Go forth, Chris. Do northern stuff. But for the love of god, don’t ever do your hair like Gareth.
