Principal patient at the Borough County Hospital is Francis Bigger (Frankie Howerd), a charlatan faith-healer who while on a village hall lecture tour falls from the platform and, contrary to the efficacy of his own methods of enjoying health and happiness, finds himself in a hospital bed. He joins a motley collection of fellow patients and finds too that the hospital itself is staffed by a far from normal team of doctors and nurses and supervised by a fearsome Matron (Hattie Jacques). It is only after a revolt by the patients who join forces in furthering the romance of a young doctor and an attractive nurse to the discomfiture of the senior staff that peace returns to the establishment... or does it?
