Mild-mannered transporter of gold bullion, who has spent 20 years moving gold bars to banks, one day decides to help himself to a million British pounds' worth of the gold. Enlisting an old friend who sculpts and manufactures paperweights, it's moulded into souvenir miniatures of the Eiffel Tower and shipped off to Paris. Panic ensues when six of the miniatures are mistakenly sold to a group of English schoolgirls.
