Is it an alternative Mary Poppins?
The Nanny
Fran Dreschler vehicle. Screeching Bronxite becomes nanny to the children an American idea of an English gentleman. More of a kids show really.
Not Mr. Nanny then.
Russian remake (My Beautiful Nanny) is incredibly popular over there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_foreign_adaptions_of_The_Nanny#Russia
Here as well. Duh.
At least, the Russian girl, quite a lookalike of Mrs. Dreschler, is quite less annoying and sports very shirt skirts

I could only watch one episode.
Great family comedy. I don't think I could watch it again though.
The Nanny: Looked foxy but ruined it all by opening her mouth and screeching like one that was being raped.
It was twee shite too.
