Quaker strippers!

A rather cheeky bit of page positioning by sub-editors on the Irish Times gave the paper's Triennial coverage a risque look. Above the story 'Quaker Summit Starts in Dublin' sat a photograph of three male strippers in a charity talent contest in Dublin. Well, not really strippers. It was that boisterous scene from The Full Monty where singers dressed as cops divested themselves of their uniforms to a heavy rock beat. Eye thought the picture might have drawn readers' attention to our event. Maybe.
