He has been taken to the Madame Tussauds store room at Wookey Hole, Somerset, where his head will be stored alongside other famous heads which have been moved onto the shelf.

Ex-England Captain Bobby Moore: A Waxwork's Journey Through Time". In this photo print, we witness the bittersweet fate of ex-England Captain Bobby Moore. Not only has he lost his prestigious position as England Captain, but also his place in the iconic Madame Tussauds museum since England's triumphant World Cup victory in 1966. The year is 1974, and a new chapter begins for this waxen representation of a football legend. Transported to the depths of Wookey Hole, Somerset, Moore finds himself amidst other famous heads that have been relegated to storage. Bill Johnson, the store keeper at Wookey Hole, gently places Moore's head alongside that of his old England teammate Nobby Stiles. It is here where these once-celebrated figures will rest until their next call to fame. This photograph captures not only an intriguing moment in history but also reflects on the transience of glory and public adoration. As time marches forward and new heroes emerge on the football field, even legends like Bobby Moore must make way for change. George Phillips masterfully immortalizes this poignant scene through his lens. His work invites us to contemplate how our perception of greatness evolves over time and reminds us that even waxworks can tell powerful stories about human achievement and resilience. Join us on Memory Lane as we delve into captivating moments like these – snapshots frozen in time that continue to resonate with generations who cherish both sporting triumphs and their symbolic representations.
