Based in 1968, follow the comical adventures of the Arthur Ascot Private Investigation Agency as they try and solve twelve very different cases. From a suspected adulterer to a perverted hypnotist. A crooked evangelist to a kidnapped race horse. Working undercover to expose a fraudulent vicar and as security guards to unmask art thieves. The reemergence of a dead man to a stuffed dog. A serial bigamist and a missing body, to a travelling hoover salesman who offers more than a free demonstration. To a final case when a soap star is discovered hiding in a monastery, leading to another hilarious case for Arthur and his team. Enjoy how Arthur has to guide his young nephew into the art of the investigation world, how he's regularly tormented by his psychic postman who has the ability to tell Arthur what his mail contains. Supported by his transvestite secretary Gloria and eventually bringing into the group, clumsy photographer Spencer Daley.
