Brigitte Bardot At Her Peak

Brigitte Bardot was once considered to be the most beautiful woman on the planet. The actress cast a spell on the audience and made the most of her roles. In the 1950s and 1960s, she was arguably one of the most popular women on the planet. Unfortunately, her celebrity has made it impossible for her to maintain any semblance of privacy. “I don’t know what it means to sit quietly in a bistro, on a terrace, or in the theatre without being approached by someone,” she once told The Guardian.

Arsenal Goalie Jack Kelsey On A Very Foggy Day

This photo of Arsenal’s Jack Kelsey staring into the fog was taken in 1954. The image below is frequently misidentified as being from a viral story from 1937’s Christmas Day. A game between Chelsea and Stamford Ridge was played on a foggy day, according to this story. The game was called after only 61 minutes, but no one informed the Stamford Bridge goalkeeper.

He said, “I paced up and down my goal-line, happy in the knowledge that Chelsea were being pinned in their own half. ‘The boys must be giving the Pensioners the hammer,’ I thought smugly, as I stamped my feet for warmth… After a long time a figure loomed out of the curtain of fog in front of me. It was a policeman, and he gaped at me incredulously. ‘What on earth are you doing here?’ he gasped. ‘The game was stopped a quarter of an hour ago. The field’s completely empty’. And when I groped my way to the dressing-room, the rest of the Charlton team, already out of the bath and in their civvies, were convulsed with laughter.”
