Plot[edit]

Samantha Sweeting is a workaholic lawyer. After a mental breakdown, Sweeting walks out of her London office, gets on a train at Paddington station, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Sweeting knocks on the doors of a well-kept manor where she is mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as a housekeeper. The employers are unaware of Sweeting's true identity. Severely ill-equipped, Sweeting realizes she has no relevance experience and is wholly unsuited to the role. She manages to cope, learns housekeeper skills and eventually finds love.[1]
