The British press were equally horrified with the English portrayed as upper class perverts, poofters, lezza's swindlers and idiots.

Barry's adventures take him from the Australian colony of Earl's Court to Rickmansworth and the strange perversions of England's upper classes, along the hippie trail meeting the thieves of the British music industry before landing him back in London this time among the sexual deviants of Notting Hill.
