To the Manor Born

Audrey fforbes-Hamilton, an upper-class widow, is forced into an alliance with a self-made man in a bid to keep her stately home.

Audrey moves out of Grantleigh Manor. Her hopes of seeing the estate run along old lines are dashed when she discovers the new owner's background.

Audrey takes DeVere to task for failing to turn up in church on Sunday, but then fails to practise what she preaches.

DeVere moves his multinational grocery business to the manor and crosses swords with Audrey over a fireplace.

DeVere hosts the traditional hunt ball but asks Marjory to organise it instead of Audrey, who in turn arranges an exquisite revenge.

Audrey waits until DeVere goes away until she herself goes on holiday.
