Description:A plea for improved food hygiene at home and in the workplace. Mr Norris fails under prompting from the hospital doctor to find any reason for his present bout of food poisoning. The film tells another story, showing a series of sources of contamination - beginning with his failure to wash his hands after visiting the WC, to drinking from a poorly washed glass in a pub where, as he begins to feel unwell, he imagines himself carried off to the grave.
