The film tells the story of the sophisticated Director General of the National Broadcasting Group ([[Will Hay]]) who promotes the ambitious Head of Complaints to Programmer Director ([[Clifford Mollison]]) in an attempt to stem the number of complaints he is receiving owing to the station's overly intellectual programming. In 1930s British slang, the [[acronym]] "NBG" stood for "no bloody good". The character played by Hay is clearly intended to be a satirical parody of [[John Reith, 1st Baron Reith|Lord Reith]], and the NBG the [[BBC]].
