In this nostalgic print captured by Ron Burton, we are transported back to the 1970s when protests and demonstrations were a common sight. The Goodies Trio, consisting of Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden, and Bill Oddie, take center stage as they ride their three-seater tandem bicycle through the bustling streets of London on Wednesday 21st November 1973. Amidst petrol rationing and fuel shortages during that era, The Goodies found themselves at the forefront of providing entertainment to a nation in need of laughter. Known for their hilarious antics and comedic genius showcased in various television programs on BBC, these talented individuals brought joy to millions across the country. As they film on location for one of their comedy shows, The Goodies demonstrate their unique solution to petrol rationing with their unconventional mode of transportation. Riding together on a single bicycle epitomizes both camaraderie and resourcefulness in times of scarcity.
