Brilliant beard scenes from Sunderland's past as we get ready for Decembeard - but are you in the picture?

Are you ready for some retro beard scenes? We are as we celebrate a month of beard growing on the way.

Decembeard is a nationwide initiative to support sponsored beard growing in support of Bowel Cancer UK.

But we thought we would get you in the mood with some Sunderland and County Durham beard growing – and beard removing – scenes from the past. Who do you recognise in our retro colection?

Are you in the spotlight yourself? Take a look and then get in touch with your own memories.
