It looks like a typical Blackpool pre-season Press Publicity Picture. What a line-up.

Is that Matt Monro on the extreme right, with his jacket sleeve cut off by the border of the picture?

And that surely must be Adolf Hitler (looking very good for 72) at the very back, slightly to the left and forward of the Rover and Ford Anglia cars. It's pretty well known that he had a reasonably successful post-war career living quietly in nearby Cleveleys, running a small guesthouse and selling ice-cream in the season.

And Harry Corbett, without Sooty, standing two to the left of Bruce.

Bye bye, ev'rybody. Bye bye.

Surely Ecca is in there somewhere.

Yes, there he is standing between Lord Lucan and Shergar.
