A COUPLE are looking forward to living the high life after they won the chance to be called Lord and Lady of Teesside.
The lofty title was bestowed on Ronald and Elaine Gray, of Acklam, after they picked up the prize in a competition in a shopping centre in Middlesbrough.
It means the lucky couple can change their names on driving licences and cheque books.
As well as having their own coat of arms, the pair won other prizes including a medieval banquet for 20 of their family and friends at Lumley Castle in Chester-le-Street.
Mrs Gray said: "I haven't stopped laughing since I found out. I just know I am going to have so much fun being a real Lady and I'm enjoying it already."
The Hillstreet Centre held the competition as part of a series of medieval events over the Easter period
