In this comedy g-british, g-drama set in wartime London, the charming draft dodger Eric Trapp (Robson Green - Wire In The Blood) and heroic ex-Raf pilot Eddie Wallis (Jerome Flynn - Soldier Soldier) have very little in common except for their mutual disdain and playing in the same big band orchestra. Their dislike for each other takes a back seat when their skirmishes with vicious gangsters, espionage and exploding bombs compel them to join forces to save themselves and defend England - using whatever lying and cheating ways are necessary.
