I know Middlesbrough takes some stick

Sorry NC

But I used to live on Bankfields back in the 1980s and the way the houses were built (around 1976-8) on a slope reminded of those in the video. I used to love running up Eston Hills on an early Summers Morning.

The video has a bit of Scottish loyalist feel - is the poster 100% sure it is Teesside?

Please be it there to save our dignity ( he says with clenched fists clenched up to the gods )
 
There's no way this is Middlesbrough. Look at the view in the background at 6 seconds in.....that's not Eston Hills or anywhere I recognise (if anything it looks like Whitby Abbey viewed from behind?
 
Could be Northern Ireland the more I look at it with an obscured NI flag to the left. Hanging flags half way up lamp posts is a NI thing too. The Union Jack tends to be used a lot in 60% of NI. England places tend to use English flags nowadays.

I don't know the history of the Penny Arcade song, but it has a feel of the Thornhill Boys type singing which is played on Scottish West Coast and NI loyalist areas not really on Teesside.

Do they Car registrations mean anything nowadays? - Scottish plates used to have a S as the middle letter and NI ones were completely different to the rest of the UK.
 

They even play "Penny Arcade" over the speakers at Ibrox for Old Firm matches and 40k join in. A Roy Orbison song written by a Rangers fan.

The Ulster plates were 3 x letters followed by 4xnumbers like GJI 3324
