Routine slapstick comedy with mawkish sentimentality that was Norman Wisdom's first film under the direction of Robert Asher after six consecutive vehicles helmed by John Paddy Carstairs.

Norman Truscott (Norman Wisdom) is a dry cleaning assistant who dreams of being a singer. He takes singing lessons from voice coach Miss Dobson (Hattie Jacques), but only has the confidence to sing if Judy, a wheelchair-bound friend, is present. One morning unscrupulous professional singer, Vernon Carew (Jerry Desmonde), visit’s Norman workplace to have a suit pressed and leaves two free tickets for his evening performance. Carew's singing career is flagging and when he hears Norman's voice, he concocts a plan to record his voice and market it as his own. But Norman’s friends are less than happy with this fraudulent affair and they conspire to expose Carew's dirty deeds at the London Palladium.
