Oh, Mr Porter! Is an undoubted British comedy classic, and one of Will Hay’s best comedic performances. After one catastrophe too many, William Porter (Will Hay), a bungling railway worker is given the job of stationmaster at an obscure and rundown station in rural Ireland. The new appointment is not due to promotion, but his sister who doesn't want to see him in a degrading job and her husband who is happy to see Will as far away as possible if only to end his wife’s nagging.

They arrange for Will to become station master at Buggleskelly, a station that has lost five station masters recently due to insanity - and is apparently haunted by One-Eyed Joe the Miller. His co-workers at his new appointment are a toothless old gaffer who is the deputy stationmaster and a chubby young loud-mouthed porter who both survive by stealing goods from the railway.
