The Italian Connection
Lucia holds her garden party, in Mapp's garden, and it is a success. Her happiness is soon brought back to earth when Mapp gleefully tells her that the Contessa Faraglione is coming to visit Tilling and that the two of them will be able to talk Italian to each other. When he hears this news Georgie starts to panic, after all if she speaks Italian to him, or Lucia, it will soon become apparent that, despite what they have told everyone, he cannot speak Italian and that Lucia knows very little more.
