There is some amateurish direction, fruity overacting and the heroine is certainly a bit dim.
The story of Jane. Down on her luck and a lack of cash. She answers a newspaper advertisement that intrigues her.
Jane finds herself doubling for an Austrian Grand Duchess, even though they do not look alike. Despite the vast cash offered, Jane acknowledges that she might step into danger.
It is a good job that the handsome young man in the neighbouring flat who is training to be a policeman smells a rat in this plan and comes to Jane's rescue.
The series if called The Agatha Christie Hour. So it goes without saying that the Grand Duchess is up to no good.
This is an amiable story with a young Amanda Redman playing Grand Duchess. It is not particularly exciting and at times I was reminded of that sketch from French & Saunders where they parodied period dramas such as the House of Eliot.
