The mere idea of a woman in his castle made the Duke of Bridgewater (Cyril Maude) feel ill, but behind his misogyny lay a family scandal that had left him irascible, lonely, and heirless. Much was his rejoicing when a letter arrived from abroad beginning 'Dear Grandfather' and signed 'Pat Caverley' - it seemed to signal that the Duke had an heir after all and the old man promptly ordered Grey (Edward Chapman), his secretary, to fetch the boy. Much to Grey's horror, however, 'Pat' (Dolly Haas) turned out to be 'Patricia'! Undaunted, the impish Patricia cuts off her curls and dons trousers - can she make everyone believe that she's a man..?
