Chapter V: The Audition
A few days after Beverley had e-mailed her application to participate in a porn film she received an invitation to attend for an interview and audition at an address in London. While she had almost no intention of actually participating, she was curious to learn something about the porn industry and its participants. In preparation for the interview she spent the whole of the previous day in a beauty parlour having a major overhaul. At least she now looked no older than the 38 years she claimed to be.
The train journey to London took just over an hour. She travelled first class to ensure a hassle free ride. In her small holdall she carried a variety of sexy underwear and her make up bag. Her travelling clothes were deliberately loose fitting to ensure that her skin was not marked with strap and elastic indentations; she had previously decided not to wear a bra. Her dress was an easily removable wrap around with no buttons or zips. At St Pancras she took a taxi to the address in Soho. Her destination was located in a seedy side street adjacent to sex shops and strip clubs. She braced herself before pressing the intercom button outside.
Once admitted she ascended an uncarpeted staircase which gave access to an office where a rather bored receptionist was sitting. After she had identified herself she was asked to sit in an adjacent waiting room. There were already two other girls there; both young enough to be her daughters. They looked at Beverley curiously; she didn't seem to have quite the right profile for a porn film actress. Apart from anything else, she was dressed rather more elegantly and discretely than her two young companions who, like most young girls, were dressed like tarts. Barely concealed beneath their clothing Beverley could see that they had both had breast implants; huge firm melon size appendages that all women aspired to and most men apparently lusted after. Rather reassuringly, Graham actually preferred Beverley's large natural breasts and found the artificial variety comic rather than erotic. One of the young women spoke to Beverley.
'We only do girl-girl scenes. What about you?'
'Actually I suppose girl-girl scenes are about the only thing I haven't had much experience of although I wouldn't rule them out.'
'How long have you been in the porn business?'
'This is my first time', Beverley admitted.
Before they could comment on this the two young girls were summoned away. A further twenty minutes passed by and Beverley began to wonder if she should call the whole thing off. The door opened and a middle aged man looked in.
'Brenda?'
'Yes', Beverley said. She had almost forgotten the alias she had adopted.
'Come on through to my office. I'm Jimmy.' He paused to shake her hand then lead her down a short corridor to his office. He sat down at his desk and looked at her curiously; Beverley stood uncertainly in front of him; there didn't appear to be anywhere to sit down. She noticed there was a table up against the wall so she perched on the edge and crossed her legs. Jimmy consulted his file.
'So you want to be in a porn film?'
Beverley nodded.
'Why?'
'I don't know; curiosity I suppose.'
'Come on, that's not a reason. Let me tell you why women get into porn; to help pay their university expenses; out of work straight actresses; women down on their luck in need of money; exhibitionists and nymphomaniacs. I can't quite see you in any of these categories.'
'Well I suppose I'm a bit of an exhibitionist.'
I hope your not expecting to get a great lay with some super stud; porn isn't like that, its hard work.'
He looked at her photographs again.
'OK let's have a look at you.'
Beverley stared at him blankly.
'For Christ's sake woman, get your clothes off.'
'Oh I see. Sorry.'
Beverley stood up and slowly removed her dress then paused uncertainly.
Jimmy gestured impatiently.
'Come on, come on, this isn't a Sunday school outing.'
Beverley pulled her slip off over her head exposing her bare breasts. She began to unfasten her suspenders.
'Never mind that, just take your knickers off.'
When she had complied with his request he asked her to walk up and down and pirouette for him.
'OK Brenda, that's fine you can get dressed now.'
He made some notes in a file then waited for her to get her clothes back on.
'Well Brenda, I'll be honest with you. You're a bit old for this game but you've still got a great body with nice big tits. Real natural big tits; I like them a lot. Have you had any experience of acting?'
