I prefer the stand shots from the bus station itself at night. It's a bit dull during the day on any angle. Gateshead is a good place for all conditions because you can get a good picture by stepping 3 steps into the road. You don't need millions of takes to perfect them either.
There's always an odd fella who has black curly hair who jumps at Percy Street/Newgate/Gallowgate/Blackett Street crossroads on the central reservations. That's quite a nice place, but a little too exposed for my liking.

When Big'un was super keen with his little camera, he liked to stand next to all the bins at the end of Northumberland street and got some quite good shots there (for him!) The lights were really useful because nothing was going too fast. Opposite the church on Percy street wasn't bad, but e missed quite a few shots because stuff was in the way. Nice backdrop when it works, though!
