The oldest daughter in her family, Betsy Sterling (Emma Chambers) is set to marry Sir John Ogleby (Tom Hollander). However, complications arise when John falls for Betsy's younger sister, Fanny (Natasha Little), who also attracts the attention of the much older Lord Ogleby (Nigel Hawthorne). Making the situation even more dramatic is the fact that Fanny is already secretly married and pregnant, leaving various characters to discover the news as misunderstandings abound.

Audience Member I owned the VHS version of this movie and I've always found it to be hilarious to me. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Stupid story with little that'll attract anyone under the age of 40. It's a comedy apparently? Don't know where they got that idea. It's appallingly written and badly acted. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member A Shakespearean comedy of errors set in the 18th Century. It works to an extent but there is just too much pomp attached. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member [You commented on this movie] Comments: really crap ~ really crap ~ Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
