EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph, we are transported back to the 1930s where Scottish comedians Will Fyffe and Jock MacKay participated in an interclub sea angling contest for the prestigious Albert Nolan cup at Brighton. The competition drew competitors from five different clubs, all eager to showcase their fishing skills. The image captures a moment of triumph as Will Fyffe proudly displays his catch - a magnificent bass. Standing beside him is his fellow comedian Jock MacKay, who looks on with admiration and perhaps a hint of friendly rivalry. Their camaraderie shines through even in this frozen frame. The scene itself exudes nostalgia, with rowing boats scattered across the serene waters as participants eagerly cast their lines into the depths below. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when leisure activities like fishing brought people together for friendly competition and shared experiences. This photograph not only showcases the talent and wit of these Scottish entertainers but also encapsulates an era marked by humor, adventure, and good-natured fun. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, it reminds us that laughter truly knows no bounds - whether on stage or out at sea - proving that growing up may be inevitable but finding joy in life is always optional.
