Posing as amateur musicians, Professor Marcus and his gang rent rooms in the lopsided house of sweet but strict Mrs Wilberforce
The villains plot to involve her, unwittingly, in Marcus' brilliantly conceived heist job
The police are left stumped but Mrs Wilberforce becomes wise to their ruse and Marcus concludes that there is only one way to keep the old lady quiet
With only her parrot, General Gordon, to help her, Mrs Wilberforce is alone with five desperate men
But who will be forced to face the music?
