The Daily Mirror Pop Club tent stands as a testament to its immense popularity, drawing such an overwhelming crowd that enrolment forms quickly ran out. It was a sight to behold as music enthusiasts flocked to join the club, eager to be part of this thrilling experience. The image captures two police constables, PC Melvin Olson and PC Chris Ellerington, who couldn't resist the allure of the festival's charm and decided to become members themselves. Clad in their uniforms and wearing matching glasses, they exude a sense of excitement and camaraderie alongside student Helen Spence. This snapshot not only showcases the enthusiasm surrounding music festivals during the 1970s but also highlights law enforcement officers embracing leisurely activities amidst their duty-bound lives. The presence of these constables adds an interesting dynamic by blending elements of entertainment with law and order.
