The film is in the British New Wave tradition and shows the blue collar working man lifestyle. The movie is a 1960s time capsule of cars, dress and dancing (even Old Spice cologne and Pepsi bottles). PlotGinger (Victor Henry) is a window washer with an eye for the girls. His best friend and neighbor, Dwyer, (Jack Shephard) swaps girls with him. Ginger is washing hospital windows and he sets up a date with nurse Babette (Jasmina Hilton). A patient gives Ginger keys to his house and asks him to care for his pets during his hospital stay. Ginger takes Babette to the local pub but his interest wanders to Carole (Vanessa Forsythe) and Jill (Susan George). He sets up a date with Carole and later that night he switches date Babette with Dwyer. Best friends share everything. Ginger cares for Mr. McLaughlin's birds, rabbits, white rats and many aquariums.

The house was trashed. Later that night, Ginger finds Jill in bed with Dwyer. Jill has lost her virginity and Dwyer thought nothing was wrong because they always slept with each other's women. Brother-in-law goes off to Mexico with Jocasta. Jill ends up pregnant to Dwyer. House setting man (Terence de Marney) returns from hospital to find his pets hungry and possessions damaged. He nonetheless hires Cecily as his housekeeper. Despite all, Ginger decides to marry Jill. Ginger makes a deposit on a rental property but Jill decides they will live with her mother.
