Dateline Diamonds is about the manager of a pop group (the Small Faces) who is hiding a secret. Lester Benson (Kenneth Cope) is really Arthur Gittins who is an ex-con. If the secret is discovered it could ruin his career and destroy the band.

A diamond thief knows Lester's true identity. He blackmails the Small Faces' manager into smuggling diamonds onto a offshore pirate radio ship where it will be collected by Kiki Dee's crooked agent.

However, the daughter of the police chief leading the investigation is a big Small Faces fan.

The film features four Small Faces songs as well as two by the Chantelles and one by Kiki Dee. The Small Faces line-up is the original featuring Jimmy Winston.

The Small Faces are generally heard in the background although they do play I've Got Mine "live" in a club with Jimmy Winston on Rickenbacker guitar.
