Summary
Pathe synopsis: London model Maureen Elsey fell for the charm of Dartmoor while on holiday and decided to make a career there - as a travelling beautician and hairdresser. Driving her sturdy little van or even going by pony, she takes glamour and the latest hair styles to remote farms and villages - besides the occasional short back and sides for her male customers.
