THE nation’s favourite Geordie actor, Tim Healy, starred in a special production in Hexham on Wednesday – his real life wedding.

The Auf Wiedersehen Pet and Benidorm star married long-term girlfriend Jo at the Queen’s Hall, and later enjoyed a celebratory meal in Danielle’s Bistro in Eastgate.

Tim is no stranger to Tynedale, having lived at Mickley for many years with first wife and fellow television star, Denise Welch.
