Playboy's
Celebrity Special with Joanne Guest is a 50-minute TV show devoted to, according to the hype, "Britain's most lusted after and photographed fantasy girl". Whatever, this programme gives the home viewer the chance to check out the lady's assets and experience the fantasy almost at first hand, with the Playboy label ensuring a certain holiday-show glossiness to the production. The profile is divided into short video-style sequences, some shot in England, others in the rather more sensual and sunny Portugal. It's here that Joanne is interviewed near the beach and talks briefly about her background as well as revealing a sordid fantasy of her own. The main action is filled with eight fantasy scenes, all involving Joanne gradually shedding her clothes and cavorting solo in various locations. In a park, on the beach, in the shower, on a snooker table, an outdoor swimming pool and finally, coyly recreating the infamous rose petal scene from
La Bête (1975) in an English country garden. Only the change of locations and style of music prevent each scene from being more of the same, but if an overdose of Ms Guest is in order this is the one to choose.
On the DVD: Celebrity Special with Joanne Guest is as basic as they come, offering just scene selection as a "feature". The picture is non-anamorphic 14:9 and is good but not exceptional, the stereo sound routine. Gary S Dalkin
