What's wrong with love?
Piccadilly Jim was adapted from P.G. Wodehouse's novel by Julian Fellowes (Gosford Park) and directed by John McKay (Crush).
London, the 1930's: Following a string of scandalous incidents, bad-boy American Jimmy Crocker - now labelled "Piccadilly Jim" by the gossip pages - proves to be a liability to his stepmother Eugenia's social climbing and his put-on father's dreams of returning to New York. Nesta, Eugenia's sister and archrival, arrives in London with her husband Peter and his niece Ann, determined to bring Jim back to New York. Jim bumps into Ann and is devastated - its love at first sight. But he discovers she loathes him by reputation, so he has to hide his true identity. Jim decides to travel to New York, and there meets up with Ann. Together, they hatch a plan for him to come into Nesta's house, pretending to be Jimmy Crocker (himself), to kidnap Nesta's ghastly son, Ogden. Jim arrives at the house to find his father, Bingley, pretending to be an English butler, having escaped the clutches of Eugenia. Comic antics ensue as Jim tries to woo Ann whilst keeping up his disguise and fending off the likes of crazy scientist Willie Partridge and Lord Wisbeach, who isn't what he seems either...
