Twickenham streaker

A word about the work

IBRA001

Twickenham, France vs England, Rugby game, 1974.

At half time Australian Michael O’Brien became the first English streaker when he raced across the pitch in front of the queen for a £10 bet.

Ian Bradshaw was the only photographer at the end of the pitch where the police arrested O’Brien who was subsequently fined £10 by the local magistrate.

32 years later, in 2006, the bobby gave to to the Australian guy, a current businessman, his helmet as a gift.

“The easiest and the best I have ever taken. I had the right lens, was in the right place at the right time. I hardly had to move, just wait for the helmet to centre!”
