The Pleasure Girls

Over one weekend, filled with parties, blossoming friendships and romantic encounters, two young women learn about life’s pleasures and pains in swinging London.

When Sally (Francesca Annis) moves to London to pursue a modelling career, she moves in with Angela (Anneke Wills, Doctor Who) and Dee (future Hammer girl Suzanna Leigh) and discovers the world of the carefree bachelor girl in Swinging London. Over one weekend – filled with parties, blossoming friendships, and romantic encounters with Keith (Ian McShane) and Nikko (Klaus Kinski) – the vivacious girls learn about life’s pleasures and pains.

Shot on location, with sparkling dialogue and lively performances from its young ensemble cast, this engaging drama bears the hallmarks of director Gerry O’Hara’s (That Kind of Girl, The Brute) assured style.
