With a view to ending the new Master's regime, the Dean and Sir Cathcart D'Eath encourage television journalist Cornelius Carrington to make a documentary about the College. They haven't reckoned on Carrington's methods, or on Skullion's gift for 'television verite'. And nobody - not even Skullion himself - has reckoned on the head porter achieving an indelible place in the history of Porterhouse.
