A MAN with a familiar neatly-trimmed beard reaches out to shake the hand of boxing hero Frank Bruno.
It is a unique and amazing picture... for the man in the gaudy tracksuit is Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe.
He was introduced to Bruno in Broadmoor by cigar-chomping TV star Sir J
Jimmy Savile, who became friends with the mass murderer while doing voluntary work at the top-security hospital.
The photo is the only informal snap of Sutcliffe taken since he was locked up in 1981. It shows him relaxed and smiling as he grabs Brunos giant fist.
The encounter happened when Bruno opened a new gym at Broadmoor as a favour for a pal.
He met gangland villain Ronnie Kray, a boxing fan, on Henley Ward, where the most dangerous and notorious patients were housed. Then Sir Jimmy introduced him to Sutcliffe. A Broadmoor source said:
Open quoteAfter chatting to Ronnie, Big Frank spotted the Yorkshire Ripper leaning back on a window ledge.
He went over and was introduced. They shook hands and Peter said he was a big fan. Frank asked Peter if he would be using the new gym and fitness machines and joked that he could lose a few pounds.
But Peter said he had never been a fitness fan and they both had a bit of a laugh.
Frank asked Peter what it was like in Broadmoor and he said he had no complaints. When they finished chatting Frank shook his hand and wished Peter all the best with his treatment.
