Very clever BUT.....

Lots of odd stuff
Gazette Office with posters in a mix of german and cyrillic script.
The biggest longest marching band ever at the Park Gates.
AI will never cut it for me. And I am a tech early adopter!

Since I first saw AI, I said it will cause a lot of trouble in the future.We won't know whether it's true or false. The statue for instance isn't Mr Palmer and looks like a old Russian leader.
I've spotted Hebburn shops in a Jarrow clip but not everyone will spot stuff like that.

It looks like the Palmer statue to me, when it was located in the grounds of the hospital. If I remember correctly it was relocated near the pedestrian tunnel entrance, before being moved to the present location.

As you will see on this closer view it is not Mr Palmer on the statue Patrick

It is Sir Sam Sadler which is correct BUT he has no connection to Jarrow.

Here is the AI assessment of the statue featured in the Jarrow video.
The image is a statue of Sir Samuel Sadler, located in Jarrow, UK.
The statue is a bronze sculpture of Sadler in court dress and mayoral robes, holding a scroll in his right hand.
It was completed in 1913 and stands on a stone plinth.
Sadler was an industrialist, Mayor of Middlesbrough, and a local MP.
The statue is a prominent local landmark, often featured in community memories and local history discussions.

Yet another flawed AI result. I distrust the so called "intelligence" with a passion!!

Aha - now I see it! Thanks Norman, I'll be getting my eyes tested in the New Year.
