Waygood's redevelopment on High Bridge was a backdrop for ITV1's filming of "No Place Like Home" today.

The TV reality series followed curator and artist Alan Bowman who worked with Waygood last May on the Fluxus Shoreline event.

It follows Alan and his family as they decide whether to return to the UK after 10 years in Italy. The programme looks at the options the Bowman's have to live and work in their native Newcastle.

Alan chatted with Waygood Creative Director Helen Smith as he helped to install the latest exhibition in Waygood Art Boutique and they walked round the building work on the Wards warehouses to see where Alan may work when Waygood re-opens on High Bridge.

No Place Like Home featuring Alan Bowman is scheduled to be broadcast in the New Year on ITV1. We will let you know when we know the screening date.
