Reminds me of the Profumo affair. Mandy Rice Davies and I can’t think of the other girls.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profumo_Affair

The Profumo Affair was a 1963 British political scandal named after John Profumo, Secretary of State for War. His affair with Christine Keeler, the reputed mistress of an alleged Soviet spy, followed by his lying in the House of Commons when he was questioned about it, forced the resignation of Profumo and damaged the reputation of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan’s government. Macmillan himself resigned a few months later because of ill health.

Christine Keeler was the main one who supposedly involved with Profumo. She was certainly a looker back in the day.
