The Sassy Seaside Show, hosted by “Miss Behave”, promises to “thrill, titillate and astound” audiences in Margate, Kent.

Thanet district council, which is spending £30,000 on the event, defended the racy nature of the show, which takes place in Margate’s historic Theatre Royal next month, saying it was “no worse than page three”.
