Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

In this British drawing room comedy, a poor-but-plucky shopgirl decides to teach a prominent family the true meaning of social graces when she begins dating one of the son's. During the relationship, she discovers that his brother has been having an illicit affair with a society matron. The clever girl uses this information to force the matron to become more tolerant of the lower classes.
