Right then, we're on the X18 from Berwick-upon-Tweed to Newcastle-upon-Tyne today. At four hours from end-to-end, this 'Coast & Castles' route is one of the longest bus journeys in the UK, but these edited highlights are a much more digestible length.
Along the way we drench a cow, meet a shout-whispering waitress in Alnwick, do an appalling Australian accent in Bamburgh, and find out why Britain is the Leylandii of the Giants.
