"Board Wages"

"Board Wages" was the third episode of the first series of the British television series, Upstairs, Downstairs. The episode is set in 1904.

Plot

In August 1904, the Bellamys are away on a summer holiday and on vacation to Scotland. The senior servants are away and Mr. Hudson and Mrs. Bridges are gone. The junior servants carouse drunkenly through the house and they mock their employers and they are all dressed up as the family. They are caught by son James, who takes on the role of butler. But Sarah continues mocking and James kisses her. He promises not to disclose her misbehaviour. After this Sarah, annoyed by James's high-handed attitude, left Eaton Place.[1] [2]
