Dick Dunster and Philip Progmire - two men locked in adversity since their schooldays, Oxford and into the harsh world and the shifting grounds of marriage. Progmire's thespian longings, nurtured since he was a university actor and through his liaison with the Ophelia to his Hamlet, are now submerged in his work as an accountant with Megapolis Television. But at least he sees actresses on the other side of the canteen and he pursues his taste for drama with the Muswell Hill Mummers. Dunster is also at Megapolis, engaged on an exposé of war criminals, focusing on a blown-up church and the massacre of the whole population of a small town during the Italian campaign. As Dunster researches his subject, the scene darkens and Progmire tries to protect the victim of his old schoolfriend's merciless inquisition. Long after the cessation of hostilities, Dunster and Progmire are still at war.
