Dear Margery Boobs
Agony Aunt finds her romantic match in a man with increasingly complicated sex fantasies.
Overview
Agony Aunt Margery Boobs (based on real life newspaper correspondent Margery Proops) has heard it all when it comes to sexual fantasies. Still, she finds her match in the unlikely “worried Streatham” when his sex life and weird obsessions call for expert advice. Better known for his children animation series Roobarb or Henry’s Cat than his adult films, Godfrey’s Dear Margery Boobs pokes gentle fun at British attitudes to sex.
