Nine Sunderland faces pictured in 2004 as people had their say on issues in the news

Speaking up on the future, Sundays and the Central Station

Thanks to all of these people who spared time to speak to the Sunderland Echo.

They did just that 20 years ago on issues such as Sundays being kept as a special day, and more powers for traffic wardens.

See if you can spot someone you know from 2004.
