Spike-the bride-goon. The essence of good (bride) grooming that was Spike Milligan at his wedding yesterday. Goonery was out as Spike donned topper and tails and a shy smile-the lot-for his marriage to singer and actress Pat Ridgway, 26. Fans who flocked to the R.C. Chruch at Rawdon, near Leeds, saw Spike playing it straight for once in his life. After the reception in Harrogate Hotel, Spike and his bride left for the traditional " secret honeymoon". It was all so conventional, really...(thanks to Spike!). May 1962 P011412

Spike-the bride-goon - A Grooming Transformation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the remarkable transformation of the legendary Spike Milligan on his wedding day. Known for his comedic brilliance and goonery, Spike surprises fans as he embraces tradition and sophistication. Dressed in a dapper topper and tails, he exudes an air of elegance rarely seen before. Gone are the antics that made him famous; instead, a shy smile adorns his face as he stands beside his beautiful bride, Pat Ridgway. The couple exchanged vows at the R. C. Church in Rawdon near Leeds, surrounded by devoted fans who were eager to witness this unexpected display of seriousness from their beloved comedian. Following the heartfelt ceremony, a joyous reception took place at Harrogate Hotel where friends and family celebrated their union. As night fell, Spike and Pat embarked on their "secret honeymoon" leaving behind all traces of eccentricity for a more conventional escape. This snapshot captures not only a momentous occasion but also reveals another side to Spike Milligan's multifaceted personality. While renowned for his wit and humor on stage and screen, here we see him embracing love with sincerity and grace. As we gaze upon this image from May 1962, it serves as a reminder that even those known for pushing boundaries can find solace in tradition when it comes to matters of the heart.
