Seeing a Beauty Queen Home

BBC Home Service
on BBC Home Service Basic

A play for broadcasting by Bill Naughton

It is the Twenties. Bill is the star dancer of the local palais. Maggie is a bit heavy-legged, but she has been elected beauty queen of the paper mills. Bill takes her home. He manages to kid her wily Gran - but gets a different reward from what he expects.

(The recorded broadcast of November 8 in the Light Programme)
