Geoffrey Wheeler visits the scene of the infamous Windmill Theatre in London.

Famed for its female nude tableaux, the Windmill was also known as the "comics' graveyard" - audiences being more interested in the girls than the gags.

Barry Cryer, Arthur English, Pearl Hackney and Eric Barker are among those recalling their Windmill days with a mixture of affection and horror.

Series featuring Variety theatres from all over the United Kingdom.
