A hilarious carry-on is guaranteed when Sir Rodney Ffing and Lord Darcy decide to lend a hand to the noble heads of France during the revolution of 1789. Known only by the sign of the Black Fingernail, the pair effect a number of spectacular rescues -but the malevolent Citizen
Camembert, head of the secret police, and his assistant Citizen Bidet, are soon on their trail. The elusive Black
Fingernail, master of disguise, strikes again and again and again in this rollicking farce from the Carry On team.
