When two flamboyant men arrive in a sleepy Kent village in 1956, it does not take long for the duo - in their colourful corduroy jackets and jeans - to gain notoriety. Local child Joe, in a burst of irrepressible curiosity, is discovered by the pair after breaking into their cottage in order to spy on the 'bloody pansies'. From these unlikely beginnings, a friendship and sense of solidarity develop between the three; but it is an alliance that will be challenged by a hostile and intolerant community.

Daphne and Rex live lives of well-to-do elegance while Rex’s brother Stanley has been condemned to scrimping for tobacco and Camp coffee. Daisy, Rex’s daughter, has also become a victim: her cruel, combing husband Julian Has turned her into an eccentric skivvy. If life is a bowl of cherries, there are always those, it seems, who are left with the bruised remnants and those who snatch the ripest fruit of all.
