This short-lived BBC series revolved around The Royalty, an old-fashioned hotel in the St James’s area of London, and its customers and staff.
Proprietress Mrs Miller (Margaret Lockwood) was much respected and liked by aged peers, bishops and a mixed gang of ‘typical’ guests.
The concept and main players were revived in 1965 with The Flying Swan.
