Chester Le Street - Barley Mow - Birtley - Angel - Allerdene - Team Valley Retail World then direct to Metrocentre.
My other idea (which is less likely as it'll cost them money)
CLS - Barley Mow - Birtley - Angel - Lyndhurst - Low Fell - Shipcote then old 183 route direct to Metrocentre
Final one was as above but if travelling from Durham
Durham - Arnison Centre - as is
Cheer's i couldn't find them in the thread, i like this idea of yours..
Chester Le Street - Barley Mow - Birtley - Angel - Allerdene - Team Valley Retail World then direct to Metrocentre.
