The Duchess of Duke Street - Season 2 (1977)

Louisa's only brother, ne'er do well Arthur, returns to London after a decade. Her mother pressures Louisa into offering him a job at the Bentinck, running the risk of alienating the rest of her staff.

When two high spirited Oxford students play a prank on Louisa, she goes along with the fun and finds a Professor of Classics pitching the woo to her. Meanwhile, Lord and Lady Haslemere come down from Yorkshire to shop for their London home.

Louisa takes a callow chauffeur in tow and tries to turn him into a 'proper gentleman,' when his kind, elderly and wealthy employer dies suddenly and leaves him the bulk of her estate.

Louisa visits Lord and Lady Haslemere in Yorkshire and finds a bleak and desperately unhappy household.

Louisa urges Charlie to get on with his life and a smooth and very suave actor beds Violet, who promptly gets the sack.
