Though some people are becoming more vocal, Miss World's tradition - at least for now - lives on. Eric Morley's 1951 creation of the Festival of Britain, a contest that was officially launched in the United Kingdom, was branded by the term Festival Bikini Contest. In fact, the event's primary aim was to advertise the bikini, a relatively recent addition to the fashion market, and it was reportedly the newspaper that dubbed the tournament, which at the time was considered by some to be rather immodest, 'Miss World.' The pageant introduced a new tag: Beauty With a Purpose in 1980, in an attempt to combat this. The additional challenges of intelligence and personality assessments were put to the participants. However, this was not enough for the BBC to continue broadcasting the event, ditching it in 1984, after which it was moved to other channels including ITV, Thames Television, Sky One, and Channel 5. 'I think these contests no longer warrant national air time,' BBC1 controller Michael Grade said when he stopped the show.'I believe these contests no longer warrant national air time.' They are an anachronism in this day and age of equality and conflict that is on the march.' Here's FEMAIL looks at what happened to some of the contestants after they were crowned in the controversial competition.
