Carry On Girls
When it comes to Beauty Queens - It's 'Carry On' and Bust!
A lighthearted, bawdy British comedy built on slapstick chaos and sexual innuendo around a seaside beauty contest sabotage plot.
Local councillor Sidney Fiddler persuades the Mayor to help improve the image of their rundown seaside town by holding a beauty contest. But formidable Councillor Prodworthy, head of the local women's liberation movement, has other ideas. It's open warfare as the women's lib attempt to sabotage the contest.
