Lancashire should have won this! You missed out Brief Encounters in the film section (which was filmed at Carnforth Station), and Hotpot in the food category. That gives us two extra categories and makes us the winner.

Lancashire wins hands down.

War Of Roses: Victor Lancashire; Loser Yorkshire. (Pretty important seen as from this the Lancastrians established the House of Tudor with ruled for well over a century, formed a powerful central government and forms the foundations of our society today.

Industry: Lancashire Victor; Loser Yorkshire. (Liverpool and Manchester at centre of industrial revolution, especially textiles and cotton spinning thanks to Richard Arkwright's innovation, he's from Lancashire needless to say and Henry Cort's iron producing method he's a Lancastrian also.)

Music: Lancashire Victor; Loser Yorkshire. (The Beatles, Oasis, The Smiths, Joy Division, The Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, Take That all from Lancashire)

Science: Lancashire Victor; Loser Yorkshire.(Rutherford, Dalton and JJ Thomson are noble laurettes that pioneered study into atomic theory and provides the basis for every Chemistry and Nuclear Physics class across the country.)

Sport: Lancashire Victor; Loser Yorkshire.(Manchester United and Liverpool the two most successful teams in the history of football, no Yorkshire teams in the premier league. No-one gives a shit about Cricket and Rugby that's why only about ten teams play it at an international level.)

Soap Operas: Lancashire Victor; Yorkshire Loser.(Coronation street is miles better than emmerdale)

Nights Out: Lancashire Victor; Yorkshire Loser. (Give me a night out in Manchester, Liverpool or Blackpool any day over Bradistan, Heffield or Dull)

Farms, Sheep-shagging and Incest: Yorkshire wins, but i'm afraid that is all it wins at.

Let's not forget that Yorkshire is four times the size of Lancashire and that becasue of Lancashire's history, heritage and culture, it is often divided up further. It just proves that Yorkshire isn't fit to wipe Lancashire's arse and that Yorkshire is essntially wasteland.

Hope this proves that logic and facts outweigh primitive Yorkshire reasoning and the Yorkshire phrase 'strong in the arm, strong in bed' is correct, it's just a pity that they are usually in bed with their sister.

That is funny, i see you've picked the best parts of Lancashire, and the worst parts of Yorkshire, we all know that Yorkshire wins hands down, and by trying to prove otherwise says your jealous, i could tell you why Yorkshire is better, but you and everyone else already knows, and it would bring me down to your witless level

andy could tell you why yorkshire is better, but he hasn't because it's not. The comment above andy's picks a topic and then compares Lancashire to yorksire. It doesn't pick a place, it picks a topic. It just so happens that the worst parts of yorkshire are the only parts of yorkshire. Andy go back to your farm and come back when reason reaches yorkshire.
