Future Perfect
by Peter Griffith

The famous girl-band 'Lip Gloss' consists of Elaine Higgs and
Juliet Pomeroy. They appear on a TV chat-show and they tell
the story of their career.
Elaine comes from a very poor background - her father is an out-
of-work miner, and she is unable to go on a class-outing because
her parents cannot pay for it. Juliet comes from a wealthy family -
her parents buy her everything she wants, and insist that she takes
ballet lessons.
Elaine and Juliet meet at a talent contest and they agree to meet
and write a song together. The song that they write is heard by Clive,
a producer who becomes the girls' manager, and sets them off on
their career. As the girl-band 'Lip Gloss' Elaine and Juliet become
famous. On stage, Juliet and Elaine appear to be the best of friends...
But the relationship between the two girls is plagued by distrust and
envy, resulting from their very different backgrounds...
