Geordie slang from northeast England, 'deekies' means a quick look or a peek at something. It's typically used in casual, spontaneous contexts — you might give something 'a deekies' before deciding whether it's worth your time. Closely related to 'dek' or 'dekko,' which have similar meaning in British English more broadly. The tone is relaxed and conversational, common in everyday speech around Newcastle and Sunderland.
Go on, have a deekies at that car they've parked up — something's not right about it.
