Plot Synopsis

Richie and Eddie are running the nastiest, smelliest, most squalid hotel in the world and things aren't going well. The Chef's guzzled all the food, cash is running low and most of the guests have fled without paying! But things are on the up with the arrival of the Nice family, some exotic underwear and the sexy Italian movie star Gina Carbonara. Richie is soon indulging his passion for panty pilfering whilst desperately trying to impress the fragrant Ms. Carbonara! But with Gina's jilted fiancée in hot pursuit and something decidedly iffy about the fish dinner Richie & Eddie are going to need a miracle to escape in one piece.
