6 of the most Yorkshire things that have ever happened
Tomorrow is Yorkshire day: an occasion where the entire nation (or, at least, a significant Northern chunk of it) gather to celebrate all the things we love about God’s own country.
In honour of this esteemed event, we’ve put together a list of some of the most Yorkshire things that have ever happened. So sit back with your cup of (Yorkshire) tea and get ready to read some of the most fittingly funny stories the county has ever produced.
Sean Bean’s pie obsession
Steak n’ Kidney, to be exact. Before jetting out to Asia to film a series of Sharpe, the Sheffield-born acting phenomenon (as they refer to him in the Steel City) apparently requested that the director ship him out a huge consignment of Yorkshire made pies to keep him going. If that isn’t one of the most Yorkshire things to ever happen, then I don’t know what is.
We don’t mind being roasted to death in an unrealistically warm climate, while we are fighting in tight-fitting colonial army uniforms, as long as we have a few Steak n’ Kidney pies for lunch.
