Sculpture near you: 'Angel of the North' by Antony Gormley

Students from Bede Academy in Gateshead made this film about 'Angel of the North' by Antony Gormley on the 20th anniversary of the sculpture's installation on a former mining site. The students mark the sculpture's birthday with cake, balloons and a recap of the sculpture's controversial beginnings. They also gather opinions from tourists and local people, and share their own views about the sculpture.
