Portia offers Blanche refuge from the storm - but as both happy and sad memories from their shared past stir within her, Blanche remains conflicted. Downstairs, Beryl is perturbed when her household duties are swapped with Eunice’s. As the workload takes its toll on the younger maid she decides to take a stand - but her actions have far-reaching consequences that shake the very foundations of what being a servant means inside 165 Eaton Place. Luckily an old face is on hand to offer some welcome and wise words…
