I speak to a Gentleman in St Albans now on a regular basis, and I find him fascinating. His name is Anthony Gregory but everyone knows him as Greg.
He used to be a photographer for a newspaper in Hertfordshire, spending most of his time around the Elstree Studios as it used to be. Mostly he does all the talking about the shoots and assignments that he was sent on. Stories of shooting stars such as Peter O'Toole, Alec Guinness, Norman Wisdom, The Two Ronnies, Howard Wilson, cast of shows such as On the Buses and all kinds of films. He even photographed the Queen Mum.
Anyway on Wednesday he handed over a small memento and New Years Greeting, This image of Eric Morecambe and him was taken on Location during many records of the show. Greg was friends with Ernie Wise before has was even famous and that how a friendship grew with Eric.
I hope that you like the photograph it made me smile.
Anthony
