In this nostalgic print captured by Victor Crawshaw, we are transported back to the 1970s when football players Geoff Hurst and John Jackson were featured on Thames Television's popular children's programme "Magpie". The image showcases the two athletes donning traditional football gear, exuding a sense of passion and dedication for their sport. Geoff Hurst, representing West Ham, stands confidently on the left side of the frame while John Jackson proudly represents Crystal Palace on the right. Their presence in this iconic photograph symbolizes not only their individual talent but also serves as a reminder of the camaraderie shared among players from different teams during that era. The setting is none other than Thames TV Studios at Teddington, where countless memorable moments were brought to life through television screens across households.
