SynopsisWhen Tom Lambert receives a telephone call one morning from the Inland Revenue enquiring about his public relations consultant, a Miss Joanna Flint, he can honestly say he has never heard of her. By lunchtime, however, he knows all about Miss Flint and rather wishes he didn’t, for Sarah, his accountant and ex-wife, confesses that she invented Joanna Flint as a tax dodge and that unfortunately the Revenue have rumbled her. A highly entertaining comedy.
