Synopsis:
The sequel to the hilarious 'Run For Your Wife' by that master of farce Ray Cooney finds bigamist taxi driver, John Smith, still running two families at the same time and keeping them blissfully unaware of each other. However, his teenage children - one boy and one girl by each wife - have met on the internet and are determined to see each other, especially as it seems they have so much in common - same surname, taxi driver dad of same age etc...
When John realises they are about to meet he enlists the aid of his long-suffering friend and lodger Stanley Gardner. He is just about to go on holiday with his elderly father who turns up thinking he is all ready at the guest house. The spiralling situation gets increasingly out of control as John employs his raggedy bag of tricks, that includes confusion, lying and utter mayhem, whilst juggling with the truth.
