Miss Emmeline Lucas (Geraldine McEwan), known universally to her friends as Lucia, is a dreadful snob, but in Miss Elizabeth Mapp (Prunella Scales) of Mallards, Lucia meets her match. On the surface they are the most genteel of society ladies but beneath the veneer of politeness and etiquette lies a bitter and seething malice. There is no plan too devious, no plot too cunning, no depths to which they would not sink in order to win the battle for social supremacy. Using their deadly weapons of garden parties, bridge evenings and charming teas, the two combatants strive to outcharm each other as the vie for the position of toast of the town...

This release features all the episodes from Series One of Mapp & Lucia, adapted from the celebrated books by E.F. Benson. Episode titles: The Village Fete, Battle Stations, The Italian Connection, Lobster Pots, The Owl And The Pussycat.
