Good Evening. That's it from

:00:00.:00:08.

Hundreds of thousands of people converged on Tyneside again today

:00:09.:00:11.

Mo Farah became the first British man in 29 years

:00:12.:00:16.

And there was added excitemdnt this year, with the crowning

:00:17.:00:20.

of the one millionth runner to cross the finish line.

:00:21.:00:23.

The dawning of the big day and the sun came out right on cue

:00:24.:00:32.

to welcome the nervous runndrs gathering at the start line.

:00:33.:00:36.

This is when you experience that first wave of collaborative goodwill

:00:37.:00:40.

and feel the true spirit of the Great North Run Day.

:00:41.:00:45.

I started to run the Great North Run yesterday morning

:00:46.:00:48.

and I've run nonstop with no sleep right throughout yesterday,

:00:49.:00:51.

This is my fifth Great North Run in 24 hours.

:00:52.:00:57.

So this is the one time of xear you are allowed to run around in a bra?

:00:58.:01:01.

Oh, you can do it anytime of thd year.

:01:02.:01:03.

But this is a great occasion, when nobody actually looks

:01:04.:01:07.

Somebody dressed as a giraffe managed to sprint past me.

:01:08.:01:10.

I could hardly breathe and I was like, it's a giraffe!

:01:11.:01:13.

It really is an amazing sight every year, isn't it?

:01:14.:01:19.

So many ordinary people doing extraordinary things for ch`rity

:01:20.:01:24.

and this year, one very special individual, because

:01:25.:01:29.

somebody in that sea of bobbing heads is the one millionth runner.

:01:30.:01:33.

In the elite race, Mo Farah avenged his narrow defeat

:01:34.:01:35.

last year, beating Mike Keegan to the line, but only just.

:01:36.:01:38.

But they are all winners, of course, the tens of thousands

:01:39.:01:45.

of ordinary people all nurshng aching limbs but basking in the glow

:01:46.:01:49.

of a job well done and millhons of pounds raised for charitx.

:01:50.:01:58.

And this year's event was the first race anywhere in the world

:01:59.:02:00.

The much anticipated milestone was marked just over three hours

:02:01.:02:06.

and 22 minutes into the racd and the honour went to

:02:07.:02:09.

1 million runners, 1 million stories.

:02:10.:02:19.

A crowded finish line and the millionth runner was here somewhere.

:02:20.:02:31.

20 hopefuls were picked out and penned away.

:02:32.:02:35.

A nervous wait while the results were checked and verified.

:02:36.:02:39.

Tracey? You are the millionth finisher.

:02:40.:02:52.

Tracey Cramond, a charity rtnner from Darlington, was reveladd

:02:53.:02:55.

as the millionth runner to finish the Great North Run.

:02:56.:02:58.

I'm still in shock, I think it is so surreal.

:02:59.:03:02.

I genuinely never win anythhng, even the bingo,

:03:03.:03:05.

Centre stage for the runner, who said her only wish todax was to

:03:06.:03:18.

You've got an ordinary woman, doing extraordinary things.

:03:19.:03:24.

A lady from Darlington, a lovely, lovely lady.

:03:25.:03:27.

She's a credit to the event and a credit to the region

:03:28.:03:30.

Mo Farrah may have won the race but it's Tracey who'll be m`king all

:03:31.:03:38.

Other news now and a man has been charged with

:03:39.:03:48.

murder following the death of a man in Newcastle yesterday

:03:49.:03:51.

The dead man has been named as Robert Littlefair who was 24

:03:52.:03:54.

He was found in a house in Heaton in the early hours

:03:55.:04:00.

Danyl Dryden, who's 23 and of no fixed abode,

:04:01.:04:04.

He is due to appear at Newc`stle Magistrates' Court tomorrow.

:04:05.:04:09.

Seven other people who were arrested have been released without charge.

:04:10.:04:14.

He was nicknamed the Rock of Tyneside ` tomorrow night,

:04:15.:04:17.

Inside Out tells the story of arguably one of

:04:18.:04:21.

Newcastle United's greatest ever defenders, Frank Brenn`n.

:04:22.:04:25.

Despite being the second most capped player in the club's historx,

:04:26.:04:28.

he was banished to North Shhelds, a non`league team on a free transfer.

:04:29.:04:34.

He was punished for something that had nothhng to do

:04:35.:04:36.

with football but everything to do with rivalry off the pitch.

:04:37.:04:41.

His fall from grace was a htge scandal, with the reason behind

:04:42.:04:44.

It just beggars belief how a club could treat a player

:04:45.:04:51.

who's given ten loyal years of service to a club.

:04:52.:04:55.

It's quite petty, some of the dealings?

:04:56.:04:59.

And you can hear about Frank Brennan's story and how he bounced

:05:00.:05:06.

back from exile on Inside Ott on BBC One on Monday at the slhghtly

:05:07.:05:09.

Some lovely sunshine today ` let's get the forecast to start

:05:10.:05:15.

Some sunshine in place to end the day

:05:16.:05:25.

A little bit more cloudy to the east, but that will cle`r away.

:05:26.:05:30.

A dry night with clear spells, perhaps the odd mist or fog patch

:05:31.:05:34.

developing and it is going to be a cool night, with temperattres

:05:35.:05:37.

So tomorrow, a fine start to the day.

:05:38.:05:40.

We will see clouds developing for the more eastern parts of otr area.

:05:41.:05:45.

The best of the sunny spells remaining in the west, and here

:05:46.:05:48.

temperatures will be higher, getting up to around 17 or 18 Celsits.

:05:49.:05:51.

We're back later tonight at around 10:20pm.

:05:52.:05:54.

Good evening. Most of us had a lovely end to the weekend but the

:05:55.:06:13.

exception was the north-east of Scotland. It was cold, wet and windy

:06:14.:06:17.

but the low responsible is now moving away and we have high

:06:18.:06:20.

pressure moving its way in from the West. The pressure is rising all the

:06:21.:06:24.

while over the next few days which will settle things down nicely and

:06:25.:06:27.

it will be dry pretty much all week. But the forecasting headache will be

:06:28.:06:32.

the amount of cloud. The next few hours will still be pretty wet and

:06:33.:06:36.

windy in the north-east of Scotland but through the small

:06:37.:06:37.
