The title is presumably a cross between ‘Venus in Furs’ (Venus Im Peltz), Sacher-Masoch’s 1870 novella referenced by The Velvets (q v) on ‘The Velvet Underground & Nico’, and Jimmy Clanton’s 1962 hit ‘Venus In Blue Jeans’.
Older readers may recall Dr Venus (voiced by Sylvia Anderson) piloting a spaceship to New Earth in an episode of Fireball XL5 called ‘Space Immigrants’.
