Vadim Jean writes and directs this comedy starring Kelsey Grammer as hapless British toff Sir Charles Bunbery, who is accidentally appointed president of his wife Penelope (Tamsin Greig)'s family-owned bank, Tuftons. When sleazy Yank Richard Grinding (John Michael Higgins) arrives and tries to buy out the bank, Charles rejects his offer but, following a poorly-advised investment tip, the bank is all but run into the ground. Penelope dumps him, reducing Charles to sell his shoes and sleep rough where he meets homeless man Oscar (Pearce Quigley). Will he be able to turn his life and the future of the bank around?
