Woodstock Ballroom becomes the vicarage of a small english sea-side village during the War.
Clive and Penelope had appeared in Noel Coward's "Private Lives" together before the war and Clive (now in the Army) tries to look up Penelope when he is stationed nearby. Penelope has married the local Vicar, who has problems of his own with the Bishop (Penelope's Uncle) and a locum due to arrive whilst he is away on church business. Clive is forced to change into the Vicar's clothes to avoid a scandel for Penelope when the local busybody arrives, and of course all Vicars arrive in the house together leading to enourmous confusion. The hilarity ratchets up several notches when an escaped German pilot also dresses up as a Vicar for a disguise, and a chase scene that would have done Benny Hill proud ensues!
