Subtly brilliant comedy of social rivalry between the wars. Emmeline Lucas
(known universally to her friends as Lucia) is an arch-snob of the highest
order. In Miss Elizabeth Mapp of Mallards Lucia meets her match. Ostensibly the
most civil and genteel of society ladies, there is no plan too devious, no plot
too cunning, no depths to which they would not sink, in order to win the battle
for social supremacy. Using as their deadly weapons garden parties, bridge
evenings and charming teas, the two combatants strive to outcharm each other -
and the whole of Tilling society - as they vie for the position of doyenne of
the town.
