EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1972, we are transported back to the golden era of British television comedy. The iconic trio known as The Goodies - Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden, and Bill Oddie - are captured in action while filming a sequence for their new BBC programme Down to Earth. The scene takes place outside Shepherds Bush Shopping Precinct on a sunny Saturday morning. With their trademark wit and charm, The Goodies aim to shed light on the perils of overpackaging at supermarkets. As they stand amidst an array of parcels and packages, their expressions convey both amusement and frustration at the excessive waste caused by consumerism. This photograph not only showcases the comedic genius of The Goodies but also reflects the spirit of entertainment in the 1970s. Television programmes like theirs brought joy and laughter into living rooms across Britain during a time when escapism was greatly needed. Chris Barham's expertly captured image serves as a delightful reminder of this beloved era in television history. It encapsulates the essence of these talented comedians' work while highlighting important social issues that were ahead of their time. For fans of vintage entertainment or those nostalgic for simpler times, this print is sure to evoke fond memories and spark conversations about both comedy legends and environmental consciousness.
