Confessions from a Holiday Camp
Timmy Lea and his brother-in-law Sidney Noggett are working as entertainment officers at Funfrall, a typical British holiday camp. The staff are lazy and inefficient, preferring to laze by the pool rather than organise activities for the holiday campers. A new owner, Mr. Whitemonk, an ex-prison officer, takes over the camp and is determined to install discipline into the staff. He is on the verge of dismissing Timmy and Sidney; however, Sidney's suggestion of organising a beauty contest changes his mind. The film’s story is set in a typical British summer camp, where people arrive to take some rest and forget about annoying problems. To have fun and relax from the work they arrange erotic parties. All of them are spending a good time together, as long as a new manager arrived, who is trying to change their spending time in the “right direction”. Timothy Lee and Sidney Noget also arrived there as animation workers. This movie is a part of series of films about Timothy Lee, which also includes Confessions of a Driving Instructor, Confessions of a Pop Performer and Confessions of a Window Cleaner
