Help playing audio/video Middlehaven has the worst life expectancy in the UK , so we went to talk to people who live and work there. The Office of National Statistics found that Middlehaven has the lowest life expectancy at 67.8 years, compared to the highest in Moreton which is 93.4 years. In the Middlehaven ward, at one of the many garages, the mechanics there workers told us said they smoked, 鈥60 plus fags a day, 10 pints a day and then at work I eat sausage sandwiches and drink tea. I think that 60 is an old age to live to.鈥
At the Bridge Caf茅, known for its savouries made of mince meat, sausage meat and onion, its owner said that she can鈥檛 see the harm in the odd bacon sandwich. 鈥淚 think I鈥檒l live till I鈥檓 90 the way I feel. I believe in eating healthy but eating bacon and sausage sandwiches didn鈥檛 do me any harm as a kid.鈥 At the Captain Cook pub, it鈥檚 11.30am and 71 year old Harry is already in his usual seat. 鈥淚 smoked two pouches of baccy a week and drink ten pounds worth of whiskey a day. I get meals from Heron鈥檚 and tinned meals, I鈥檝e got here rather by luck than judgment. "It鈥檚 well known fact that Middlesbrough鈥檚 air is totally carcinogenic, it鈥檚 the environment that we live in (that鈥檚 responsible for lower expectancy). "It鈥檚 the wrong issue." last updated: 03/09/2008 at 09:21 Have Your SaySEE ALSOYou are in: Tees > Places > Regeneration > Live fast, die young 5 DAY FORECAST
