Radio Times review

The heating's on the blink at Blandings Castle although the sub-zero temperature doesn't explain why Lord Emsworth has sprouted a luxuriant beard nor why his sister Connie is so incensed by the sight of it she wants to pack the old fellow off to his London club. But that is part of this drama's charm - logic and clarification are superfluous to stories rooted in the absurd and farcical.

Breezing through the chilly corridors in tonight's episode is a brash film crew (headed by Michael Brandon) from Hollywood and Lady Drusilla (Nichola McAuliffe), a fanatically religious woman who favours leather gussets. The usual tangle of misunderstandings ensues.
