David Niven plays a rich bachelor, the head of a successful greeting-card company in Scotland, essentially a kind man but respectable to the point of stodginess and extreme stuffiness.
 An American troupe wants to produce a musical in town (Edinburgh?) but has trouble getting backers. Niven's character meets several of the leading ladies of the show; through a misunderstanding he doesn't correct they think that he's a newspaper reporter.
He falls in love with one of the women, who reciprocates; he grows more lively and friendly, to the surprise of his employees.
After a series of mishaps and comic incidents comes a happy ending: a successful show and true love.
