Screwing up group photographs is a bit of a sport. There was a huge panoramic photograph from St Custards (Newcastle) where the boy on the far left of the back row also appeared on the far right. This was before my time but the teaching staff held his achievement in high regard.

The person on both ends is a standard joke with the operators of those panoramic cameras. Whenever (several times, at banjo camps and the like) I've been in such a session, the cameraman organized the "end run".   I bet that's been going on ever since the panoramic camera was invented.
