EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from The Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back to the vibrant and exhilarating 1980s. Against a backdrop of London's iconic streets and buildings, Cpl. Graham Copestake of the renowned Red Devils parachute team fearlessly plunges from a Royal Navy Sea King helicopter, evoking a sense of awe and nostalgia. The image encapsulates the spirit of adventure that defined an era, as skydiving into one of the world's most bustling cities was no ordinary feat. As Cpl. Copestake descends with utmost precision, his daring act is made even more extraordinary by the unexpected presence strapped to his hip - a bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau securely nestled in a pouch. This unique addition adds an element of whimsy to an otherwise heart-stopping moment frozen in time. It serves as a reminder that even amidst adrenaline-fueled stunts and historic views, there is room for playfulness and celebration. The aerial perspective offers viewers an unparalleled glimpse into London's architectural wonders during this transformative period. From towering skyscrapers to charming historical landmarks, every detail is beautifully captured against the vast expanse of sky. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph by Bill Cross, our minds wander back to an era where risk-taking was celebrated and boundaries were pushed. It serves as both a testament to human courage and ingenuity while also igniting fond memories for those who experienced or long for the electrifying energy that permeated through London
