A provocative question forms of this short film about a women-only bowls club in the genteel surroundings of Harrow-On-The-Hill.
Given that at around the time this was made, the Topical Budget cameras were also recording one of London's first all-women motorycycle club, it's fairly clear that the question posed in the title of this short film would be an emphatic ‘of course!'. It features footage of a dozen or so women, impeccably hatted, engaged in a game of lawn bowls in Harrow-On-The-Hill, then gathering round the jack to discuss who has emerged the victor.
