A comedy by Larson Browne.
Television adaptation by Harry Green.
[Starring] Harry Green
The scene is Joe Bauer's office, at the Bauer K.O. Brand Factory, Bauerville, Yorkshire
Before an invited audience at the Television Theatre

For thirty years Joe Bauer has been running a canning factory, energetically and relentlessly. He calls himself 'bull-head Bauer-a tough nut' but the pressure brought to bear on him almost as soon as the play opens is liable to crack even his shell, especially since it is pressure from inside the factory. Albert, his 'old reliable' of a foreman, and Jack, his own son, have some scheme for making the factory a democracy, with its own parliament and president. This may sound solemn, but the play is anything but: Joe's uninhibited responses to a strange situation are enough to ensure that.
