Jimmy Cricket with professional photographer Tim Bradley at the Thwaites Empire Theatre in Blackburn
Jimmy Cricket came across a familiar figure at the launch of his new musical.
The Rochdale-based famous Irish entertainer was at the Thwaites Empire Theatre in Blackburn where Maloney’s Big Moment is being staged on Friday and Saturday, 11 and 12 October.
And he bumped into freelance photographer Tim Bradley, whom Jimmy has met many times previously.
He said: “Tim is such a warm and amiable guy, whom I first met when he worked as a photographer at the Rochdale Observer – my local paper.
“I get asked to appear at a lot of local events in Rochdale and this is when I used to bump into Tim.
“He has now gone freelance and does a lot of work for the Lancashire Evening Telegraph, so when I recently launched my new musical show at the Thwaites Empire Theatre in Blackburn, it was Tim who turned up on behalf of the paper to take some photographs.”
Tim took the photos which featured in the previous Cricket Times story about Maloney’s Big Moment.
Jimmy added: “I hope it won’t be too long before our paths collide again!”
