1905. Efter tio år som missionär i Afrika återkallas Charles Fortescue till London. Nu ser den charmige och timide pastorn fram emot att gifta sig med sin ungdomskärlek, kyrkoherdens dotter, och leva ett stilla och syndfritt liv. Men problemen hopar sig när Londons biskop ger honom i uppdrag att missionera bland East Ends prostituerade. Den förvirrade pastorn tar nämligen bibelns ord om att ”älska sin nästa” på ett alltför bokstavligt – och kroppsligt – sätt. Är det dags att skaffa klippkort till biktbåset?
Monty Pythons Michael Palin spelar huvudrollen i denna utsökta komedi och har dessutom producerat och skrivit manuset. I rollistan har han sällskap av andra förnämliga aktörer som dubbelt Oscarbelönade Maggie Smith (Downton Abbey) och de Oscarnominerade Trevor Howard och Denholm Elliott.
