Last Updated: 12:01pm GMT 28/03/2008



A major photography exhibition of TT race images shot by renowned photographic agency Getty Images, and curated by Murray Walker, will be launched in London on April 9.

It will then transfer to the Isle of Man where it will run from May 3 to July 12, to include the TT fortnight from May 24 to June 7.

Covering 100 years of TT races, the exhibition includes previously unseen archive shots and includes legendary figures such as Geoff Duke, Giacomo Agostini, Mike Hailwood and Joey Dunlop. Bob McIntyre's first 100mph lap is represented as well as the days when the TT included cars.

Murray Walker said: "In my view, the TT races are the greatest motorsport event in the world. The races have been an enormous part of my life from when my father raced in the 1930s through to the period when I commentated there for the BBC. This exhibition brings back many incredible memories."

The exhibition is open to the public at Getty Images Gallery, 46 Eastcastle Street, London W1 from April 10-19.
