Inhaltsangabe:	Der rechtmäßige König von England ist noch ein kleines Baby, daß man an einem Muttermal erkennt, weswegen es dem schurkischen Sir Roderick (Basil Rathbone) auch leicht fällt, den Thron an sich zu reißen. Doch ein Vogelfreier namens "Schwarzer Fuchs" will den Usurpatoren stürzen. Er braucht jedoch den Schlüssel zu einem geheimen Tunnel. Den zu beschaffen wird ausgerechnet der leicht nervöse Hubert (Danny Kaye) auserwählt, der auf der Reise die Identität von Giacomo, dem Narren der Könige und König der Narren übernimmt. Doch einmal auf der Burg geht bald alles drunter und drüber, denn nicht alle vertrauen dem Narren, Mordkomplotte werden geschmiedet, des Königs Tochter verliebt sich in ihn und eine Hexe mit recht wirksamen Zaubertränken mischt ebenfalls noch mit. So hat Hubert bald alle Hände voll zu tun, am Leben zu bleiben...
