When Arthur Blenkinsop, foreman at Lillicrap Ltd., gives a job to the half-Irish, half-Pakistani Kevin O'Grady, the existing workforce don't take kindly to a new "wog" in their midst.
Further details
Irish-Pakistani Kevin O'Grady begins his first day at work in the bear-pit of bigotry, abuse, practical jokes and all-round boorish behaviour that is the workshop of Lillicrap Ltd., manufacturer of novelty goods and souvenirs. The unsuspecting newcomer's unusual racial background quickly proves to be a red rag to his less-than-tolerant workmates.
