Friday fun: The first anniversary of Stephen Tall’s naked run

I will be forever grateful to my former co-editor Stephen Tall for teaching me two very valuable life lessons; be careful what you commit to on live TV and honour your pledges with good humour and grace.

It’s a year since we first saw video of his Naked Run down Whitehall, filmed for the Daily Politics.

Here’s a reminder:

If you enjoyed this reminder, his donation page for Medicins sans Frontieres, which raised over #10,000 at the time, still seems to be accepting donations.

    He didn’t honour his pledge, he wasn’t naked. He should be forced to do a re-run with only shoes permitted on Health and Safety grounds.

    I nevertheless hope that all the money pledged was received so that it could go to MSF.
