What happens

Some Girls Do is a 1969 British comedy spy film directed by Ralph Thomas. It was the second of the revamped Bulldog Drummond films (following 1967's Deadlier Than the Male) starring Richard Johnson as Drummond, made following the success of the James Bond films of the 1960s. Some Girls Do even featured a white Aston Martin DB6 Volante, manufactured by the same marque used by Bond. In the film, the criminal mastermind Carl Petersen attempts to delay the production of a supersonic airliner through acts of murder and sabotage. Petersen is using female robots (fembots) with electronic brains as weapons for his cause. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
