Plot:
20 young boys join a tontine: their parents each deposited £1,000 into a trust and the last of them alive gets all the money. Several decades have passed and only two are left alive: Masterman and Joseph Finsbury - brothers. Masterman hatches a plan to lure Joseph to his home...and kill him. In this endeavour he is unwittingly aided by his slow, ineffectual grandson Michael. Joseph is watched over by his scheming nephews Morris and John Finsbury whose sole purpose is to ensure Joseph wins the tontine so they can get a share of the money.
