aka The Dirtiest Girl I Ever Met.Carol (Janet Lynn) is a pretty girl who dreams about becoming a model. While Joe (Robin Askwith) fancies working for a high-end car dealership. Together they move to what they believe is swinging London, but soon their dreams become compromised and unravel, as they are forced to turn to prostitution, drugs, rip-offs and vice.
The film starts off gently enough as what seems to be a sex comedy but once in London it soon becomes a cautionary-tale about the evils of city life, supposedly based on a true story. And this is where the problems lie, at some points we are supposed to laugh at the couple and their naivety and in the next scene we are supposed to view the sober truth as they struggle to survive amid the hustlers. What it does give though is an interesting look at London in the late sixties, its fashions, shops and clubs.
