DUCHESS DUKE STREET: COMPLETE COLLECTION DVD

All 31 episodes of the beloved PBS Masterpiece Theatre series An inspiring story of triumph and loss, love and laughter Born into the servant class, Louisa Leyton rises from the scullery to become the best chef in Edwardian London and manager of the most elegant—and discreet—hotel in town.

Based on the true story of Rosa Lewis, a culinary genius and owner of London’s venerable Cavendish Hotel, this acclaimed BBC series dramatizes the life of an indomitable woman in entertaining stories full of humor and heart. Created by John Hawkesworth (Upstairs, Downstairs) and starring Gemma Jones (Bridget Jones’s Diary, Sense and Sensibility) as Louisa and Christopher Cazenove (A Knight’s Tale, Dynasty) as Charlie, the dashing love of her life.
