5:54Now PlayingA hot evening in June. The Empire Ballroom, Leicester Square. A top prize of a cool £5,000. It can only be the finals of the 1973 Pub Entertainer of the Year Competition.
A singing cowboy, a drag artist and a fully-costumed raft of teachers from Hawley, performing songs from a musical they wrote themselves. It’s exactly as good as you think it is.
