Um advogado proeminente enfrenta um chantagista que ameaça homens gays com divulgação de seus atos homossexuais (que ainda eram ilegais). Mas ele mesmo é gay. Um verdadeiro pedido de reforma dos estatutos anti-sodomia da Inglaterra, este filme coloca Melville Farr, um advogado casado, contra um chantagista que tem fotos de Farr e um jovem gay no carro de Farr. O jovem é chantageado e se suicida. Após o suicídio, Farr localiza outros homens gays sendo extorquidos pelo mesmo chantagista. O bem-educado policial Detetive Inspetor Harris considera a lei de sodomia nada mais do que um auxílio a chantagistas, e ajuda Farr em enfrentar o blefe de seu chantagista. O filme, muito à frente de seu tempo, termina com Farr e sua esposa chegando a um acordo com sua homossexualidade depois da exposição pública que ele enfrenta no julgamento do chantagista.

Against this background, a RAF reconnaissance photographer's romance with a local girl is endangered as he tries to plot enemy movements.

On the day of the test flight, one of the scientists dies in a mysterious accident, and there are many arguments concerning the flight itself; some think it should be ground-controlled while Heathley (James Donald) wants it to be a manned flight with himself at the controls. Conflict also arises when one of his fellow scientists, taking advantage of Heathley's lack of attention toward his wife, Lydia (Phyllis Calvert), makes some moves on her. Then there is the question of just who is the enemy agent on the project.
