Synopsis/Details
TABLE FOR SIX
Three good looking hunks are having no luck with the girls. Likewise, three dolly birds are having no luck with the blokes. Just by chance, they spot an advertisement for Table For Six.
Table For Six is a dating agency where six strangers meet for a meal. It is run by Melissa, a sex maniac. She has a written a booklet called 'Pleasures of the Flesh.' She gives the booklet to each client at their interview.
Three disabled young ladies are encouraged to join as well. One has no legs, one uses sticks and leg irons; the third one is morbidly obese. Three sexless young males also join. One is a vicar's son. They are all virgins.
At their interviews, Melissa discovers it is only the three dolly birds that know of the pleasures of sex. The three male virgin 'dorks' are clueless. Two of the three disabled would like to try. The three hunks know very little.
After their interviews, Melissa speaks to Janet her assistant, a rather gormless woman. Melissa has decided to match the dorks with the disabled and the dolly birds with the hunks. Unknown to us, Janet mixes up their appointment letters.
On the big night, twelve people are eagerly getting ready. Melissa and Janet are waiting at two different restaurants, then disaster. The dorks turn up for the dolly birds and the hunks turn up for the disabled. They pair off with disastrous results.
Finally, on their second chance, the dolly birds and hunks meet. Their antics outrage other diners, Melissa cheers them on. The three pairs go off and make love every which way you can in fast motion.
This is shown in a three-way split screen effect with the William Tell Overture over. The dorks and the disabled go to each others parents houses with hilarious consequences. The film ends with a voice over from Melissa.
"Remember this folks, ignorance is not bliss when it comes to the pleasures of the flesh. Good bye and good fuck!"
