Introduction

Fred runs a failing gambling joint in a seedy Soho Side-street and harbiiurs dreams of making a come-back to the halcyon days when he was "razor king of the manor".

Lil has retired from the oldest profession in the world and dreams of marrying Fred while she sweeps the floors around the feet of the tarts, ponces and layabouts who are Fred's only customers.

When a horse does Fred a good turn all these dreams look like coming true and Horace, the designer, is on hand with plenty of gay ideas to put some of them into immeadiate effect. But gang boss, Meatface Heiman, stands in Fred's path and the only way back to the top is through a 'carve-up' with Meatface and his mob. Very Nasty!
