Short-tempered, foul-mouthed and terrible cook Harry seeks assistance from his long-suffering friend and sometimes accomplice, Tony. Tony is an undertaker who has reached a cul-de-sac in life, unable to escape Harry’s tyrannical demands for help. On this occasion, Harry has killed a chef with a frozen block of soup. His job as kitchen porter gave him yet another opportunity to show off his attempts at cuisine and, yet again, it has ended in bloodshed. Tony dutifully turns up to help, abused as always, but when the charming Julie turns up to eat in the cafe where the murder most foul has taken place, the situation deteriorates even further.
