Hi Not Me & Boom,
Excuse me getting overly pedantic, Boom, but it was Nancy Walters playing the school teacher, Miss Prentiss, who enquired to Jenny Maxwell re if she had a head cold and was jovially informed, "No Mam; just the opposite!". Angela Lansbury was certainly in the film, though, but not as a part of Jenny's touring school group.
I read somewhere where Jenny explained some years later the scene took 3 takes, (what a thorough director!) on that tight wet dress so those cushions may have been quite important, and not just for the scene!?
Over here in Australia, spanking hasn't been as bigger part of our culture as it appears to have been almost everywhere else, especially OTK by hand, so it comes as a slight surprise and amusement to know that cushions and reluctance to sit down often followed spanking. But I guess for many of you, it wasn't uncommon to notice someone in this predicament & read between the lines!? I guess there's no 'hiding it', (Cynthia style pun)?!
About a decade back, there was an effort to introduce "Hellfire" clubs to some of our capitals. Really pioneering stuff for us. Unfortunately, they featured spanking with a warp towards leathers, etc., but I gathered just fun spanking away from all that heavy crap was 'on the cards' too. My Adelaide was to have been fourth in line to get one but it was blocked by public lobbying. They tried to establish it too close to a fine Catholic girl school for one thing. I think the other 3 clubs may have faded into oblivion as well.
So why mention the "Hellfire" clubs? Just that one night on variety TV, they featured a story from the Melbourne branch which showed some fun female spankee OTK for about 2 swats, (all the censors allow them to show here), in between the less palatable stuff. They had theme nights and this night they bragged about their "Spanking Elvis" party inspired by the Jenny Maxwell spanking incident. Could be worth reviving!
Anyone with any other tender examples?!,
Jindabyne.
