Roy Castle and Judo Star Brian Jacks - A Record-Breaking Duo
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1980, we witness the legendary entertainer Roy Castle alongside the renowned Judo star Brian Jacks. The occasion was a special performance of the beloved television show "Record Breakers" hosted by Castle at Gateshead Stadium. The purpose behind this two-hour extravaganza was to celebrate the inauguration of a state-of-the-art indoor training hall within the stadium premises. As they stand side by side, their expressions reveal a mixture of curiosity and puzzlement. Perhaps they are contemplating an upcoming record-breaking attempt or discussing strategies for achieving new heights in physical prowess. Both men exude determination and passion for their respective crafts – Castle as an all-round entertainer and Jacks as a masterful judoka. The presence of a stopwatch hints at the significance of timing in both entertainment and sports, emphasizing precision and accuracy required to break records. This photograph captures not only their shared commitment to excellence but also showcases their mixed age range, highlighting how dedication knows no bounds when it comes to pursuing one's passions. It is worth noting that despite its grandeur, this remarkable event was not televised; thus, this exclusive image serves as a precious memento from that memorable day in history.
