John Smith is a London cabbie with his own taxi, a wife in Streatham, a wife in Wimbledon- and a knife-edge schedule! By strict adherence to this schedule, he has been a successful, if tired, bigamist for three years. But it all comes undone when he tries to rescue an elderly lady from the clutches of three muggers and winds up getting clobbered for his trouble. The incident and ensuing treatment at a local hospital throw John's meticulously crafted schedule off kilter, with increasingly devastating results.

John's dilemma is not helped much when his upstairs lodger, Stanley Gardner tries to help but only succeeds in making matters worse. Add to this two police detectives, two very different wives and a very camp dress-maker and watch the fireworks fly!
