Hattie goes looking for Eric at a newspaper office as he forgot to take his sandwiches. She is under the impression that he is the editor.
That is news to the editor and Eric is just a gopher.
However he manages to talk himself into an opportunity to talk to an executive apartment to interview a notorious Agatha Millhampton who dislikes journalists. One of them thrown out pretended to be a fireman.
Agatha gets in as a maid, Eric hides inside a trolley and then throws away Agatha's lucky handkerchief out of the window. It was given to her by Gandhi.
Eric gets into all sorts of scrapes as he tries to retrieve it and manages to cause more press headlines.
It is all gloriously daft, something only that could come from the mind of Eric Sykes.
