BIGG Market, the Sports Direct Arena and the Metrocentre.

Just some of the highlights near Newcastle that Cheryl Cole could introduce her new boyfriend to during a whistle-stop tour of her home city next weekend.
Chezza is giving dancer Tre Holloway his first taste of Geordieland so he can get an idea of where she grew up.
She’ll take him clubbing with her pals in a city which I still think offers one of the best nights out in the country.

Pitch perfect ... Newcastle's home ground St James' Park

But West Ham’s Geordie star Andy Carroll is injured at the moment, so there’s always a chance of a forearm smash at the bar if he’s getting the drinks in.
A source said: “Cheryl and Tre are getting really serious now.
“She wants him to see where she went to school and the places she used to hang about.
“She’s planned a no-frills few days to give Tre an idea of what it was like when she was young.”

Their Tyneside break will give them some well-deserved downtime ahead of Cheryl’s UK solo tour, which kicks off in Belfast on October 3.

And it will be good training for him to get a few Brown Ales down his neck — because he’ll be back again for the start of the Girls Aloud comeback tour in spring.

Tyne of your life ... Newcastle's Tyne Bridge

Cheryl won the battle with the other girls to kick the whole thing off on her home soil.
Jimmy Nail and Geoff from Byker Grove will be so proud.
