Stanley Windrush Collection

Naive Stanley Windrush (Ian Carmichael) returns from the war, his mind set on a successful career in business. Much to his own dismay, he soon finds he has to start from the bottom and work his way up, and also that the management, as well as the trade union, use him as a tool in their fight for power.

Stanley Windrush has to interrupt his university education when he is called up towards the end of the war. He quickly proves himself not to be officer material. This leads him to meet up with wily Private Cox who knows exactly how all the scams work in the confused world of the British Army, and Stanley's uncle, a brigadier in the War Office, seems to be up to something more than a bit shady too.
