Lesley and Wesley, comedians awaiting their turn at the Skewball Hippodrome appoint themselves amateur detectives in order to find a diamond brooch which is supposed to have been stolen from Biddy, a music-hall artist. Eventually Biddy's hen-pecked husband admits that he pawned the brooch, and two comedians find that their detective work was a failure, their success as comedians secures them a London contract. A thin story and poor dialogue serve measly as links between a series of music-hall turns by such artists as Ronald Frankau, Gloria Brent, Harry Parry, Jill Summers, Leslie Fuller, Edmundo Ros' Congo Band and Stefani and his Thirty Silver Songsters. George Moon is amusing as Wesley and receives adequate support from Burton Brown as Lesley, but the off-stage performances of some of. The music-hall artists are very amateurish.
