18th-century England and Ireland viewed through the eyes of four beautiful high-born sisters - Caroline, Emily, Louisa, and Sarah Lennox, great-granddaughters of a king, daughters of a cabinet minister, and wives of politicians and peers.

First broadcast 20th June 1999.

Lady Caroline Lennox is the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Richmond and a direct descendant of King Charles II. Her parents despair at the fact that although she is now in her third season, she has yet to accept one of the many suitors who have indicated a interest in her.
