I remember from my childhood the days of BBC "Midlands" Today with Alan Towers and Kay Alexander, when virtually every news item seemed to have happened within a few miles of Birmingham and Nottingham virtually didn't exist. If it didn't take place in Solihull it didn't matter. I thought I was a Brummie for about 10 years!
