(394)  NAKED RAMBLER: WHO BARES, WINS

The story of Steve Gough, the Naked Rambler (for which see Nos 306 and 307) has been dramatised by Dave Smith and Euan Martin in a play entitled Who Bares, Wins.  The play, currently in rehearsal, will be touring the Highlands and Islands during the winter.  It approaches the story from the perspective of the postmistress of Dunnet, north of John o’Groats, outraged not only by the Rambler’s stunt but also by his failure to reach her village.
