Wiki Debbie Allen
The Look of Love is a 2013 British biopic of Paul Raymond, directed by Michael Winterbottom. It stars Steve Coogan as Raymond. The film was released in the United Kingdom on 26 April 2013.
Plot[edit]
The story opens in London in 1992. Paul Raymond returns to his flat, after attending the funeral of his daughter, Debbie. Raymond plays a videotape of a television programme he and Debbie took part in, and reflects on their lives. In a flashback to the end of the 1950s, Raymond is an impresario, on the seaside variety show circuit, where he is making a name for himself, by adding semi nude women to his stage acts.
After a lion attacks the show's dancers, his wife Jean joins the show. When the Daily Sketch claims that Jean performed nude, Raymond sues the newspaper unsuccessfully, but appreciates the ensuing publicity, after which Raymond launches his strip club in London, the Raymond Revue Bar. Its success allows him to expand his property empire, and also indulge in a playboy lifestyle, which his wife tolerates.
In the beginning of the 1970s, Raymond moves into theatrical revues, and casts aspiring actress, Amber St. George, in a nude revue. Raymond moves in with her, and his marriage to Jean ends. Raymond also agrees to meet a grown son, Derry, he sired out of wedlock, but after an awkward dinner together, he gives Derry no more of his time. Tony Power is approached by Paul Raymond to run a new men's magazine, Men Only.
Tony Power, who was only in his 20s at the time, was subsequently corrupted into a sleazy world, by Paul Raymond, ending in his untimely demise. The magazine is a huge success, in part thanks to roving sex reporterFiona Richmond, the pseudonym of St. George. Raymond continues to enjoy a hedonistic, coke fuelled lifestyle. This becomes too much for St. George, and their relationship ends.
Into this mix, his daughter Debbie is introduced. Initially, Raymond tries to make her a star in his theatrical ventures, but she lacks talent, and the show is an unprecedented failure for her.
Debbie marries musician Jonathan Hodge. Jean returns for the wedding, and volunteers to pose nude for Raymond's magazine. In the delivery room, Debbie gives birth to a girl, after sniffing a line of coke, that her father provides. She dies in 1992, of a heroin overdose.[2] After the funeral, Raymond returns home with his granddaughter, pointing out the property he owns that will someday belong to her.
An epilogue reveals that in December 1992, he was the richest man in Britain.

Debbie Hicks filmed herself while walking around Gloucester Hospital on Monday.
She was arrested for public order on Tuesday.
Hospital denies allegations that wards are empty and the epidemic is a ‘big scam
An anti-lockdown protester and comrade of Jeremy Corbyn’s anti-vaxxer brother Piers was arrested for filming at the hospital and claimed that the coronavirus epidemic was a ‘huge hoax’ because he shared footage on social media.
While Debbie Hicks was walking around the Gloucester Royal Hospital on Monday, she said the hospital was ‘closed’ and ‘died’ and was arrested 24 hours later by two officers who visited her home in Stroud in her robes.
In the eight-minute film watched by 158,000 people on Facebook, ‘Did we enter Level 3 for this? This is a shame. I saw less than 20 people. He died completely in an empty hospital with his wards and lights off.
Where do all humans die and where is the mutant virus? I can’t see the evidence and the public can’t watch it either. That’s why we were robbed over Christmas’.
Royal Hospital Gloucester backfired and insisted the wards were ‘overly busy’ and accused him of ‘trespassing’ and upsetting patients waiting in A&E.
Local Tory MP Siobham Baillie said: “It is terrifying that our Gloucestershire Hospital Trust was spending precious time on social media during this difficult epidemic to defend against movies that claim the hospital is empty.”
The public is not allowed to film inside a UK hospital – or patients – without prior permission.
Ms Hicks traveled along the corridors along the A&E and looked at various wards without masks and told people who stopped her that she was exempt from wearing them.
In an angry exchange he is heard shouting: ‘You shouldn’t ask me this. This is none of your business. Two stupid women ask why I don’t cover their faces. I’m not in the mood for these bulls today.
The activist was arrested at her home Tuesday on suspicion of a public order crime, in which two officers tried to handcuff her with her dressing gown.

He shared the video yesterday after he was bailed out and banned from all NHS property as long as he didn’t get sick: ‘Wake the world up – how much Orwellian and Nazi went through it because they shared a video of an empty hospital.
This officer rushed into my house at Christmas and arrested me when I wasn’t dressed in front of my family. I was in my nightgown with nothing underneath when an officer bandit tried to drag me while I was arrested while aggressively arresting me and bending my hands behind me in handcuffs.
Ms. Hicks took the side of the Labor Party in the 2017 local elections after the Manchester terrorist attack claimed it was ‘a great time for Theresa May’ – the terrorist attack that claimed 23 lives and injured more than 800 people could help win the Tories votes. suggests.
An active supporter of Piers Corbyn and his ‘Rally of Freedom’ movement attends the protests in London with him and poses for a selfie in the Tube, wearing a party hat as a mask.
He was arrested at the Freedom Rally event in Stroud in November. He was charged with the coronavirus crime and will appear before the Cheltenham Magistrate’s Court on February 22.
Gloucestershire Police said he was arrested under Section 4A of the Public Order Act – meaning he is accused of intentional harassment, alarm or nuisance to people while filming the hospital.
A spokesperson said: ‘After a series of reports of an online video taken by a public at the Gloucestershire Royal Hospital, officers arrested a 46-year-old woman on suspicion of public order crime.
‘The woman was on bail to return to the police on 21 January on the condition that she could not enter any NHS premises or the grounds of such premises unless there was an emergency or attended a pre-determined NHS appointment.
The hospital said they were busy despite the images.
A spokesperson said: ‘Our hospitals are extremely busy and still ongoing, and our colleagues at both hospitals work hard during the festive period to take care of our patients.
Contrary to what you may have seen from ‘hidden shots’ on Facebook, our hospitals are extremely busy and still busy.
We are currently caring for over 200 patients with COVID-19, including most of those in need of treatment in our critical care departments and more than 500 patients without COVIDs.
Filming patients waiting without their consent at A&E is both intrusive and upsetting, as the key to our hospitals being a safe space to get the care you need is key to ensuring patient privacy.
We cannot stress enough how important it is to continue to follow hands-on-face-area guidance to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and protect the most vulnerable in our community in Gloucestershire.
