EDITORS COMMENTS
Tommy Steele: From Pantomime Hero to Unexpected Prisoner". In this print from November 1969, we witness the incredible transformation of renowned entertainer Tommy Steele. Having just completed his role as Dick Whittington in the Lord Mayors show, Tommy finds himself in an unexpected predicament. After a thrilling ride atop a stage coach through the City of London during the procession, fate takes an intriguing turn for our beloved performer. As the festivities come to an end, Tommy finds himself confined within the walls of Wood Street Police Station. Captured within this snapshot is not only a change in attire but also a humorous twist. With great gusto and perhaps a touch of mischief, Tommy sheds his iconic Dick Whittington costume and dons ordinary clothes before being locked away. However, not one to miss an opportunity for laughter, he playfully discards his long wooly underwear that had kept him warm throughout the chilly performance. This photograph encapsulates both the glamour and unpredictability of show business in its purest form. It serves as a reminder that even those who bring joy to countless audiences can find themselves caught up in extraordinary circumstances. Join us on Memory Lane as we delve into these fascinating moments frozen in time—where pantomime heroes become unlikely prisoners—and celebrate the indomitable spirit of entertainers like Tommy Steele.
