A blonde in red dress leads us into a slice of fifties innocence. This Guy’s the Limit is not for acrophobics but full of good fun whilst Tennis Match looks like it has a sneaky guest appearance from ‘Little Mo’ Connelly who had just won the Grand Slam – at least she looks similar. Poor Little Mo died tragically young in her thirties.
Candy likes to pull strings on a double date but things change when she buys a rubber (no, no, no - in England that’s what we call an eraser) whilst in the final tale, Gabby shows off his engineering skills, helped by Rusty in the tightest overalls you ever did see. |
