The bungling French detective is hired by Scotland Yard to deal with a gang of bank robbers, but only disrupts the investigation with his blundering. Meanwhile, the crooks add to the confusion by committing crimes disguised as Clouseau. Comedy, starring Alan Arkin, Delia Boccardo, Frank Finlay, Patrick Cargill, Beryl Reid and Barry Foster.

Detective Inspector Jacques Clouseau is borrowed from the Surete on special assignment for Scotland Yard in hopes that a fresh outlook will help the government recover the loot from the Great Train Robbery, which is being used to underwrite a new crime wave. What they don't count on, however, is having more than one Clouseau on the job.
