Men of Affairs

1973 7

Barry Ovis is Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Minister for European Affairs, Sir William Mainwaring-Brown. Sir William has a very active libido and often gets up to non-portfolio activities. Ovis has to cover for him (usually very badly), and misunderstandings then pile on top of misunderstandings.
