English Summary:

King Rudolf IV (Sellers) dies in a balloon accident upon the celebration of his seventieth birthday. In order to secure the throne, General Sapt and his nephew Fritz travel to London, where the King's son, Rudolf V (Sellers), resides and lives through the day in London's pleasure establishments; but the King's demented half-brother Michael (Kemp), thinking that he is the better claimant, sends an assassin after them. Hansom cab driver Sydney (or Sidney) Frewin (Sellers), the new King's half-brother from an affair with a British actress, rescues Rudolf from an assassination attempt. Once his resemblance to the King is noticed, Frewin is hired by the general ostensibly as the King's coachman, but actually to play the role of decoy. The ruse is quickly uncovered, however, when during an attack by Michael's men the royal guardsmen address Frewin as their new king, and the two look-alikes get acquainted.

Hungarian Summary:

Ruritánia királya, Vasakaratú Rudolf belezuhan a kútba, és szörnyethal. A trón örököse, az ifjabbik Rudolf azonban többre becsüli a játékkaszinót és a nőket, mint az uralkodás terhét. Féltestvére, Michael mindent képes megtenni azért, hogy eltávolítsa Rudolfot, és maga ülhessen a trónra, ezért bérgyilkost küld a nyakára. A merényletet a kocsis hiúsítja meg, aki megszólalásig hasonlít a trónörökösre. Rudolfot elrabolják, ezért az új király szerepét a kocsisnak kell eljátszania.
