EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1981, London passers-by were left puzzled as they stumbled upon a rather peculiar sight. Three of Britain's most renowned stars - John Cleese, Rowan Atkinson, and Pamela Stephenson - were seen taking their show on the road. However, what caught everyone's attention was the presence of an extra pair of legs in the frame. As it turns out, those legs belonged to none other than David Rappaport, standing at a mere height of 3 feet and 10 inches. David Rappaport, famous for his role in the film Time Bandits, graciously offered his assistance during rehearsals for The Secret Policeman's Other Ball. With a cardboard cut-out in hand, he lent a helping hand to Cleese, Atkinson, and Stephenson as they prepared for their new show. This snapshot perfectly captures the camaraderie between these talented comedians and actress as they come together to create laughter-filled moments on stage. Their collaboration showcases not only their individual brilliance but also highlights how teamwork can elevate performances to new heights. The image is reminiscent of the vibrant entertainment scene that thrived during the 1980s. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of an era when humor reigned supreme and these iconic figures brought joy to audiences across London and beyond. As we delve into Memory Lane Prints with Mirrorpix's remarkable collection capturing this momentous occasion in British entertainment history; we are reminded once again that laughter knows no
