Anthony Steel retires from the Army to return to wife Patricia and child. He gets a job with a lot of future in it, but nothing at present; at seven pounds a week, their savings are vanishing. Miss Roc starts up an agency to do whatever the client wants: manuscript typing and baby sitting and dinner escort. Steel chucks his job and starts up a food truck and caterer, but he and his partners are tyros. As Miss Roc's business becomes successful, they both become grouchy. By the time his business becomes successful, they're snapping at each other.
