Bunny Girls, celebrities, pop stars and fashion in these news reports from London’s Playboy Club in the 190s.

From a world long, long ago – that’s London in the 1960s – comes this delightful Pathé News clip of Playboy Bunnies in action. No need to fret about objectification of such here, as the well-paid Bunnies turn up at a charity fundraiser (watch out for a brief appearance from Roger Moore) before we head back to the Playboy Club to see the thrills on offer – fine dining, the (in)famous casino and rather more of Dave Dee Dozy Beaky Mick and Titch playing live than anyone needs – as the Bunnies are put through their paces, learning ‘the dip’ – the legendary and admirable serving method.

And as a bonus, here’s a 1968 charity fashion show at the Playboy Club, with appearances from Patrick Macnee and Linda Thorson, as well as Playmate Connie Kreski, as they admire clothing by Janet Lyle and Mr Fish.
