Hancock has got a cold and it will his cough will not shift. There is no sympathy from Sid and all the medicine he has is not working.
The entire germ kingdom has gone straight up his hooter. Sid thinks that it is a surprise that Hancock has not overdosed on all the tried and tested medicine.
Hancock calls in Mrs Cravatte (Patricia Hayes) for her generations old natural remedies but she is just a quack.
When he goes to see his GP, Doctor Callaghan (John Le Mesurier.) Hancock finds out that he has had a cold for weeks as well and nothing has worked. In fact the Doctor tries Hancock's tonics.
Eventually he decides to keep fit with Sid. A healthy body would hopefully keep the germs away.
Some wonderful funny writing from Galton and Simpson. Having some sharp witty scepticism for patent medicines and herbalists. Wonderful cameos from Hayes and Le Mesurier.
