Synopsis

John Smith may seem like an ordinary taxi driver, but he has been keeping a big secret. He has a loving wife in Wimbledon, and ANOTHER loving wife in Streatham and – a knife-edge schedule! By strict adherence to this schedule, he has been a successful, if exhausted, bigamist for three years. But one day, gallantly intervening in a mugging, he ends up in hospital where both his addresses surface, causing both the Streatham and Wimbledon police to investigate. In the ensuing complications, aided by his chaotic friend Stanley, John tries bravely to cope with a succession of well-meaning but prying policemen, the press and two increasingly irate wives, desperately struggling to untangle the marital mess he has made.
