EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1970, we see the adventurous BBC TV presenter William Wollard fearlessly embarking on an unconventional journey. The image captures him striding confidently along the roof of St Pancras Station in London, a sight that surely raised eyebrows and piqued curiosity. While this high-minded exercise may not be everyone's cup of tea, it perfectly aligns with Wollard's daring spirit and thirst for exploration. As a prominent figure on Tomorrow's World, he has always been at the forefront of innovation and cutting-edge technology. But what made this audacious feat possible? Enter Herbert Stokes, a clever Welshman who invented something truly remarkable: Roof Shoes! These ingenious contraptions allowed individuals like William to tread upon unexpected paths and conquer new heights. As we gaze upon this photograph frozen in time, we can't help but admire both the architectural beauty of St Pancras Station's arches and Wollard's determination to forge his own path to success. This snapshot encapsulates an era when adventure was embraced without hesitation and boundaries were meant to be pushed. So let us celebrate William Wollard as he defies convention and takes us on a thrilling stroll through history—a reminder that sometimes all it takes is one small invention to unlock limitless possibilities.
