Life as a private detective begins at 60 for sprightly
Lancashire housewife Hetty Wainthropp (Patricia Routledge, Keeping Up
Appearances). Her newly retired husband, Robert (Derek Benfield, Rumpole
of the Bailey), thinks she ought to be winding down with him, but Hetty
takes a job to make ends meet and accidentally discovers her natural gift for
sleuthing. Finding an eager sidekick in destitute teenager Geoffrey Shawcross
(Dominic Monaghan, The Lord of the Rings trilogy), Hetty sets up her own
detective agency, puts her sensible pumps to the pavement, and proves she has
what it takes to be a gumshoe of distinction. |
