Set in 1940s England, the village inhabitants are preparing for Nazi invasion. Resident spinster Miss Skillon becomes convinced that the vicar’s actress wife is up to no good and attempts to catch her out. Add an escaped Russian prisoner of war, a handsome actor, the visiting Bishop of Lax and some meddling neighbors and mirthful confusion and mayhem result.
