- Synopsis:
- The Very Reverend Richard Jedd (Will Hay) has a problem: the church spire, now in a parlous state of repair, will cost nearly £1,000 to fix. When various money-raising schemes go awry, he is persuaded to waive his principles and bet what's left of his savings on Dandy Dick, a 10-1 odds-on at the local races. A simple tonic to enhance the nag's performance seems a good idea...but when the butler decides to intervene, the respectable clergyman finds himself in the middle of a doping scandal - and worse!
