Blonde Bombshells of 1943




















Adapted from Alan Plater's Bafta-winning TV film The Last of the Blonde Bombshells, which starred Judi Dench, Blonde Bombshells of 1943 focuses on a day in the life of an all-female swing band. Having lost half of their troupe to illicit liaisons with American GIs, the Blonde Bombshells (conspicuously brunette before donning peroxide wigs) are auditioning for replacements to perform live on the wireless that very evening.
