In this iconic print from 2nd April 1983, we see the legendary comedian Tommy Cooper bringing his unique brand of comedy to the city. Organized by department store Farnons, this open-topped bus trip was no ordinary affair. As the bus made its way through bustling streets adorned with colorful balloons, it was impossible to miss Tommy's infectious laughter echoing through the air. To ensure nobody could resist joining in on the fun, a lively traditional jazz band accompanied him on this whimsical journey. But that wasn't all - once they arrived at Farnons, lucky competition winners were treated to prizes presented by none other than Tommy himself. The excitement didn't end there as he graciously signed autographs for adoring fans who couldn't get enough of his quick wit and slapstick humor. This snapshot captures a moment when Newcastle came alive with laughter and joy. It reminds us of an era when parades like these brought communities together and television stars became beloved figures in our lives. So take a trip down memory lane with this delightful print featuring one senior man only - Comedian Tommy Cooper - making hearts lighter and smiles wider just like that!
