Fab Photo Friday circa 1976
Seeing as we've had requests for Fab Photo Friday and seeing as it's still Friday in my part of the world, let me offer you this until Sunny Jim gets his photos in gear for you.
This photo is a screen grab from a 1976 episode of Coronation Street. We see here Alf Roberts, Fred Gee and the third man is Terry Bradshaw, the brother of shop owner Renee Bradshaw (before she married Alf). Terry worked with Len and Ray in the builder's yard for a bit. At this point in the show, these three had ended up with a racing greyhound but it kept running off.
The dog was taken in by Albert Tatlock and these three stooges popped their heads round the door when they found out where the dog was. Albert was appalled that they were not feeding it much. Their excuse was that you needed the dog to be hungry when it raced. Poor pup!
