MPX5153510: Mrs Sterry and her two children visit Mr Sterry, who works as an assistant crew cook on the "Bloemfontain Castle" motor vessel. Mrs Sterry asked the Daily Mirror to photograph her husband with the ship in the background, as he was due to be transferred when the ship was sold to the Greeks. The Daily Mirror went one better and invited the whole family to visit the ship and toy fair at Kensington High Street. Pictured here are the family taking a last look up at the Vessel before leaving for the evening train from Paddington back home. 12th November 1959 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
MPX5153565: The RAF's Red Arrows aerobatic team burst into the sky above Newcastle Airport with an off the cuff demonstration of their terrifying skills. They raced across the airport, skimming the ground, with a dense cloud trailing behind then, then burst into a 'star shell' flying up unto the air in every direction. All this after a 350 mile flight from their base in Kent, which the team's 10 Folland Gnat jets devoured in a quick, 38-minute trip. The team was in Newcastle to announce the start of the year's season of displays. Eighty-five displays were planned, including their 500th since the squadron was formed in 1965. After refuelling at the airport, the Red Arrows gave their show, then raced off again. They were due to return in the summer for displays at Newcastle, Sunderland and Teesside. 16/04/1970 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
