In this episode we kick things off by discussing whether Sir Maurice and Cleone were reasonable in wanting Philip to change his ways. Is he being asked to put aside his real identity and conform? Or do they want him to broaden his horizons before slipping prematurely into old age?

And what about Cleone? A young woman who gets engaged more times in ten minutes than most of us do in a lifetime. Hey, she’s 18, and just keeps on being importuned - we’ve got sympathy for her.

But it’s the older generation who are really bringing the romance in this story, so we also talk about that old romantic Tom, and the incomparable Lady Malmerstoke. Some of her views on women are certainly problematic, but when it comes to entertainment value - she’s up there with the very best of the eccentric widows.

“Men with chins like his are not safe. I’ve had experience, and I know. He’ll win in the end, if he has a mind to do so.”
