Plot

Freddie Horne loves his job working for a trendy women's fashion magazine, but his pretty blonde fiancée is getting jealous. To smooth things over Freddie takes a job with the Puritan Magazine Group, an organisation hell-bent on promoting moral reform and "family values". However, the caddish chief executive Miles Fanthorpe is not all he seems. Fanthorpe's East Grinstead country house is actually full of scantily-clad young women, and he is secretly publishing a girlie magazine.

Cast

Critical reception

Monthly Film Bulletin said "The permissive society is obviously making it more difficult to produce a prurient film. To convince us that there's something naughty about photographing girls in bikinis, this one resorts to the improbable device of creating a mild pornographer whose primary concern is to safeguard his reputation among East Grinstead churchgoers. And although none of its cast remains fully dressed throughout, its hero is just old-fashioned enough to marry the one girl who loses her clothes by accident rather than by design. Not that the film is provocative – merely embarrassing. And its crude scripting means that its elaborate car chase is entirely unmotivated."[4]
