Set in 1943, Appointment in London stars Dirk Bogarde as Wing Commander Tim Mason. It is Mason's hope to complete 90 bombing missions before his automatic rotation to a desk job. After the 89th mission, however, he is grounded and ordered to remain so by his superior officer. When a bomber pilot is injured, Mason defies his orders and takes the pilot's place. By rights, he should be court-martialed for this, but the outcome is rather different than what he and the audience are led to expect.
