Bryce and Ken are recruited by the Ministry for Cultural Advancement to track down a couple of esoteric, cultural fringe-dwellers who have absconded with their grants for 'Celebrate Australia Day'.
This comedy series follows two private investigators, Bryce (Terry Bader) and Ken (Richard Healy), who run a firm known as The Excelsior Research Foundation. They generally take on simple detective work (domestic disputes, etc.) but often find themselves in trouble (mostly through their own stupidity and poor circumstances) and have Detective Sergeant Blair (Peter Hosking) or Pat (Debra Lawrance) cleaning up after them.
Bryce, Ken and Pat go undercover at a country guesthouse to solve a series of antique thefts. Before long, Bryce reveals his true identity to investigate a murder - a difficult task given he has no body, no clues, and no shortage of suspects.
