The premise

Here’s the bit.

Dolly introduces a swear box at the pub to raise money for the church fund. Joe Parson and Gilbert Robins soon discover how costly an ordinary conversation can become, as each censored outburst brings another fine. The two customers try to settle down with their drinks, but the arrival of the vicar gives the fundraising scheme a final twist.
