Synopsis

Manolo the Latin lover has kissed goodbye to his last-unnamed-British housewife. Now he is in a prison cell in Palma, Mallorca, claiming to have been the top of the pop-into-bed favorite with more than 100 women holiday makers in the past three years.Some were German, some Scandinavian, but the great majority were British. And all were aged 40 or over, on holiday without their menfolk.In a good season, the handsome, 30 year old Spaniard reckoned to be able to woo and win them at the rate of five a week.The trouble was, according to police, that on his way out of their holiday hotel bedrooms, Manolo often stopped to take a little souvenir-like jewelry or a purseful of pesetas.He usually got away with it, because by that time the ladies were blissfully asleep. He is caught finally by a furious blonde, who finds his identity card has slipped out of his pocket onto the bedroom floor.
