A coworker of mine from Northumberland just sent this to me:
Quote:
A Northumberland beach has been mistakenly used in a promotional advert for a landlocked Canadian province.
The brief clip for Alberta, in Canada, shows a young boy and girl laughing as they run along a beach later confirmed to be either Bamburgh or Beadnell.
The Alberta government has issued an apology, saying it "screwed up".
The Canadian government said: "Northumberland, you are beautiful too."
