FEMFIGHT EUROPE.

It seems almost a lifetime ago when I bought my first Festelle video in the Swish Shop in London's Soho.I had bought a few copies of Amazons in Action magazine there but this was my first VHS video and the girl who impressed me most was Fionna who I believe had a background in judo,so I was more than pleased to find these couple of short clips of her in action against the blonde Louise and Sally.Possibly these were her last bouts.

A request from a fan for a reminder of his first real interest in the scene,which was the gypsy fight in the Bond film From Russia With Love.Fighting style have had a couple of attempts at reproducing similar and this is the best.

Someone said it's only a short time now to the Olympics and what if the female judo was like this.They'd definitely get a gold for dress.

Somewhere in the UK will possibly be an avid keeper of records who as charted the result of every Festelle bout and the girls taking part,if so answer me this one?How many sisters appeared in Festelle productions?The only ones to come instantly to mind are the Jennings girls Maggie and Paddy seen here in non topless action against Helen and Ria Kleine.Correct me if I am wrong but this is the only time I can recall seeing Paddy in action.

It's an age old format thats been tried around the world,often with little success.But here in Japan they've got a new angle with the girls trying it and like most things in the combat business they give it their best shot.Without understanding the language it's not possible to work out how the scoring is done in order to find a winner.But no doubt both girls earned their money on the night and the spectators appear to enjoy the effort they put in.
