In 2007, Nell Gwyn regular Elvis Hayes bares all in preparation for his chest wax in aid of the Help for Heroes appeal which was being supported by the Sutton Road pub in Mansfield on Saturday night. Queueing up for the same treatment was Dennis Adams, right, and Sean Pitchford, left, who was having his head shaved.
