Fleet Street's old-fashioned rotary presses rolled off reams of front pages about the lithesome lass who seemed to have captured the Prince's heart. One photograph showed Diana posing in the bright autumn sunlight, nice legs plainly silhouetted through her diaphanous skirt...
...mist-glazed 18th century Scottish village, unknown to any map, wakes from its protective sleep one day in each 100 years. Two 20th century Americans stumble on the town's inhabitants on just that fateful day. Susceptible Tommy (Martin Vidnovic) soon tangles heartstrings with a bewitching local lass, Fiona (Meg Bussert).

In a reverse striptease, a comely Victorian lass in black stockings and garter belt dresses up in corset and crinoline for a grand occasion orchestrated by Strauss. The star of the show, callipygian Linda Bardot, clad mostly in a pearly headdress, twirls around under a filigreed umbrella, mouthing in puffick Cockney Oi'm Aownly aye Bird in aye Gilded Cayge. Between and after the twice-nightly shows, the place becomes a disco where the windows vibrate past midnight...
