Well performed but to those unfamiliar with Georgette Heyer please don’t imagine this knockabout, unending stream of insults represents her true worth (even the name is misspelled above). Instead find a brilliant reading of The Grand Sophy on YouTube or read any of her most highly regarded books.

This was a fun, short dramatization of Georgette Heyer's book, Faro's Daughter. While not as wonderful as reading the full book, I enjoyed it.

Well done, light comedy

Very entertaining. Easy to guess the ending. Quiet humorous melodrama.

A lovely distraction
