Constable

'Ello, 'ello, 'ell, what's all this then? Staff at a cop shop have been struck down by a flu epidemic, to the annoyance of stressed-out Sergeant Wilkins (Sid James). His inept superior (Eric Barker) is threatening to have him transferred and with a bunch of raw new recruits on board, the pressure is pilling up. Will the rookies bring home the bacon or are they as incompetent as they seem?
