Oh its way more than just an accent. I visited my friend up there a couple months ago, and after a couple of drinks, I couldn't understand a single word she was saying either to the taxi driver or other geordie people, it was hilarious! A lot of their language comes from Norwegian, for example I'm "gannin yem" - going home, it exactly the same in Norway. Must be some historical reason for that but its true.

Geordie refers to a person from the Tyneside region of England and the adjacent areas, or to the dialect spoken by these people. To many outside the NE region, the term Geordie is (incorrectly) used to describe anyone from the North East.

It is more an accent than a dialect, though it has some of its own slang. It has some things in common with the speech of southern parts of Scotland. Like all other language issues, this is a matter of nature evolution.
