The 100th Annual Dinner of the Gaskell Club for Winners of the Gold Medal was held at the Royal College of Psychiatrists on 30 October 1987.

Looking round the tables I was struck by the number of people who had worked at the Maudsley, a tangible reminder of the contribution of that centre of excellence to psychiatry.

I do not doubt that the standard of psychiatry at the Maudsley remains as high as it ever has been, but inevitably my thoughts ran to the post-war period when, as a 21 year old, it seemed one was surrounded by giants.
