The Synopsis

I've just finished watching this movie and would like to point out that the current synopsis is horrible. This describes a completely different movie to the one I just watched. I am therefore going to change it and will reprint the rotten Tomatoes synopsis here as proof that it is really waht happens in the film: From director Peter Richardson, creator of some of England's most popular TV comedies, comes an offbeat yarn about a transsexual revolutionary. After he's fired from a job at a snotty, upper-class restaurant, Alex tries to receive unemployment. But while waiting on line to apply, Alex gets fed up with the rotten attitude of the employees. And, together with a down on his luck tramp named Ron, Alex takes the entire place hostage - thus launching his career as a radical rebel! Later, the duo teams up with a Russian spy named Commander Fortune and wages war against the corrupt Home Secretary -- the Cockney bully Nosher. The climax comes, however, when Alex and his friends become owners of the posh eatery that once sent Alex packing... and start serving some unusual dishes to the clientèle.
