This contest seems to be finding it harder and harder to find a mainstream broadcaster in the UK to screen it. This years competition was shown live on Travel Channel this afternoon (Saturday) and will be repeated on the same channel tonight at 9.30PM.
I think part of the problem is that both the concept of the show (judging girls on their looks alone) and the execution of it (production c. 1973) just don't chime with a modern, mainstream UK audience. We've moved on a bit - though the rest of the world may not have yet.
The One Show did have some of the contenders in their studio a few fridays back (where it was treated as a bit of a curiousity and some retro-fun), but that's about it I guess.
