EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print captured by Mike Maloney, we are transported back to the 16th of October 1980. The image features the renowned television star Esther Rantzen, famously known for her role in "That's Life" engaging with passers-by on a bustling street. However, what makes this moment particularly memorable is that she can be seen offering unsuspecting individuals a taste of something rather unconventional - "Bat Soup". Little did anyone know at the time that this seemingly innocent act would lead to Esther Rantzen's arrest later that day for wilful obstruction. This unexpected turn of events adds an air of mystery and curiosity to the photograph. As one of BBC's prominent presenters in current affairs and entertainment, Esther Rantzen was always known for pushing boundaries and challenging societal norms. Her fearless approach often made headlines, but it seems that on this occasion, she may have crossed a line. The photograph not only captures a significant moment in television history but also raises questions about our relationship with food and cultural practices. It serves as a reminder that even well-known figures are not exempt from facing consequences when their actions challenge legal boundaries. Mike Maloney's skillful composition allows us to relive this incident from the 1980s while pondering its implications within the context of both entertainment and society as a whole.
