 Michael Upton is fed up with various noises distracting him so decides to find a new room. He moves his stuff into one and resists the advances of the rather fit girl who let him the room for some reason. Her mother arrives home finds a skeleton in Michael s new room and think he is trying to murder his daughter. He doesn t even enter the next house he goes to see due to an extremely camp gentleman who answers the door. He is put off the third room due to the dead body of the previous occupant still being in the bed. He takes the rather spacious fourth room he visits for only two pound a week. After he moves in he finds it has also been let to Duncan Waring, Dick Stuart-Clark, Huw Evans, Dave Briddock and the latter s girlfriend Helga. As if that wasn t crowded enough Helga s cousin turns up to stay for two weeks.
