It's 1981 - the year of that Royal wedding. The real drama, though, is at Barbara Cartland's mansion. When Barbara's pet Pekinese vanishes, Rush, a hard-bitten journalist from the Sunday Intruder, suspects foul play. Was it the drunken maid, the frustrated chef or the spinster secretary? Will High Tea ever be the same? Flashbacks show a young Barbara in her heyday as the 'It Girl' of the 1920s, to discover her pioneering campaign work which often went unnoticed. No play about Barbara Cartland would be complete without a touch of romance, and Maximus Kirby and Lavinia Davenport spring to life from the pages of Barbara's latest manuscript.
