Mapp and Lucia

Still in mourning at Riseholme, Lucia turns down Daisy Quantock's fête role, then spots Miss Mapp's advert letting Mallards in Tilling.

Lucia and Georgie arrive in Tilling, where Lucia rents Mallards from Miss Mapp for fifteen guineas, and Georgie decides to take the cottage next door.

Georgie takes Mallards Cottage in Tilling as Miss Mapp watches jealously, then Lucia takes over Daisy Quantock's fête and plays Queen Elizabeth herself.

Lucia orders the gardener Coplen to stop serving Elizabeth Mapp, and breaks the news to Georgie that his maid Foljambe is marrying Cadman.

Elizabeth breaks Lucia's door chain, then secretly rejects Lucia and Georgie's paintings before Mr Wyse exposes the fraud.

Lucia fakes influenza and sends Georgie away to avoid speaking Italian with Contessa Amelia, then Miss Mapp spots her skipping from the church tower.

Lucia buys Grebe and decides to settle in Tilling for good, breaking the news to Georgie, who sells his Riseholme house and leases Mallards Cottage.

Elizabeth mocks Lucia by calling to Georgie in baby-talk from her window while Lucia sits in the car below, and war begins.

Elizabeth overhears Lucia mocking her baby-talk speech, then Lucia's rival dinner empties Elizabeth's bridge party an hour early.

Miss Mapp sneaks into Lucia's kitchen to copy the lobster recipe, then the flood sweeps both women out to sea on an upturned kitchen-table.

Lucia and Elizabeth are presumed drowned, so Georgie inherits Grebe and £80,000 while Major Benjy inherits Mallards and £10,000.

Lucia and Elizabeth return to Tilling alive after months lost at sea, and Elizabeth evicts Major Benjy from Mallards.

Elizabeth forgives Major Benjy, gets engaged to him and stages a lecture against Lucia's, then her stolen lobster recipe exposes her at lunch.
