Plot
Samantha Sweeting is an attorney that is overly dedicated to work. After a mental break, Sweeting walks out of her London office, gets on a train at Paddington station, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Sweeting knocks on the doors of a well-kept manor where she is mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as a housekeeper. The employers are unaware of Sweeting's true identity. Severely ill-equipped, Sweeting realizes she can't sew on a button, bake a potato, or get the ironing board to open. Slowly, she begins to cope, learns housekeeper skills and eventually finds love.[1]
