Former Goon Sir Harry Secombe Makes a Surprise Landing in Newcastle". In this photo print, we witness the legendary comedian and singer, Sir Harry Secombe, arriving in Newcastle amidst an exhilarating competition. Almost becoming the 10,000th passenger to fly from Gatwick to Newcastle on Dan-Air's new British Aerospace 146 airliner, Sir Harry narrowly missed winning himself a delightful magnum of champagne. However, his luck turned around as he gracefully participated in the presentation ceremony upon landing in the North East. The multi-talented entertainer had a busy day ahead as he was scheduled to record a television program at Durham Cathedral. Adding excitement to his already eventful day, Sir Harry was honored with presenting the coveted bubbly and two return tickets from Dan Air to Mr. Alan Chisholm. Mr. Chisholm, originally hailing from Jarrow but residing in Sussex, worked for RT James & Partners - a prominent company with offices both in Clavering Place, Newcastle and the South-East region. This unexpected encounter between two distinguished individuals created an unforgettable moment that will surely be cherished by all involved. This remarkable snapshot captures not only the joyous occasion but also highlights the vibrant atmosphere of air travel during the 1980s.
