James Tindale Is Geordie Shore No More

We’ve got shocking news for you folks - Geordie Shore veteran James Tindale’s days of hitting the Toon and getting mortal are over.

An integral member of the Geordie family from the very beginning, James will leave the show during series 10, that is currently in production.

He will be most remembered for the power of his ‘combover’ hairdo, that saw him buck his way round Newcastle, and leave co-star Holly Hagan obsessed.

"I've had the most amazing few years being part of the Geordie Shore family so will always remain close," said James. "I’ve got a lot of exciting fitness projects in the pipeline and looking forward to what the future holds."

An MTV spokesperson added: "We are always evolving the show and bringing new Geordies into the mix but James will always be part of the Geordie Shore family and I am sure we'll see him again."

Stay tuned for all the latest Geordie Shore news - but for now we'll pay tribute to James with a collection of some of his most bangtastic moments from the Geordie Shore archives:
