CALENDAR GIRLS
by Nigel Cole
synopsis
When Annie's husband dies of leukaemia, her best friend Chris comes up with a novel way to raise money for the hospital that cared for him. Why not produce a calendar featuring the two of them and fellow Women's Institute members in traditional WI poses, but just to make it more interesting why not have them in the nude? A sudden celebrity starts to take over their lives and, during a publicity trip to Hollywood, the friendship between Chris and Annie begins to crack.
