Summary
Pathe synopsis: ...and hula-hula girls, in the first British competition to find the girl with the shaky hips you’d most like to be shipwrecked with on a coral island. This colourful bar with Pirate’s pick-me-ups and Missionary’s Downfalls to drink has been lifted straight out of the South Seas and laid out authentically on our North Sea Coast at Skegness. The entertainment ends with thunder and lightening and a tropical downpour over the crocodiles in the lagoon.
