Fenner's Fashions make high quality clothing. Unfortunately for managing director Harold Fenner, the loud-mouthed shop steward, Paddy, is on the look-out for any excuse to take the almost entirely female workforce out on strike.
As a consequence, every day is a battle between Paddy and Harold, aided (and often hindered) by the foremen, Reg, and later, Tony. But somehow they seem to pull together at the last minute and get things done.
