Can you believe that it was 20 years ago that these photos were taken.
Our spotlight is on 2002 and we have reminders from Annabels, Sunderland Chiefs ice hockey team, the day the Queen came to Sunderland and the Black Cats in action against Liverpool.
Take a look and see if there is a scene that you remember.
