plot
This looks at the shenanigans between the upper class folk and their
downstairs servants in the household of Sir Henry Bludgeon-Plunger.
There's his son Willie, who has just returned from an expedition up the
Amazon, and his beloved daughter Lottie. Also on the scene is a randy old
gal from Sir Henry's past called Lottie von Titzenhausen. Downstairs is
watched over by the beady eyes of cook Mrs. Breeches and Butler Clodson
who enjoy the fairly easy life they have built up. However, this is
threatened when Sir Henry proposes to Lottie, who has threatened to reveal
secrets that they would rather forget about.
review
A parody of the popular TV series 'Upstairs Downstairs'. You may think
that this would give a good opportunity for laughs. It doesn't.
