And finally, a landlord in Elswick has been barred from renting out a house by the council after it was found in a shocking state.
A family had to move from the property into emergency accommodation after there was damp, mould and no hot water in the property.
The tenants turned to the council after the landlord failed to respond and the landlord has been served with a prohibition order.
