with John Pitman
Winner of the British Academy Award last year for the Best Documentary Programme of 1981. A candid look at a day in the life of a grand hotel: upstairs and front of house with the rich and famous-Lord Carnarvon, Harold Macmillan - downstairs and behind the scenes with the valets, chambermaids, chefs and waiters who have to keep the clients happy. The Ritz was once the stamping-ground of everybody who was anybody. But it can't afford to live in the past. So the Ritz clings to its old traditions of luxurious opulence and Edwardian elegance while beginning to cater for the new Ritz people - businessmen, tourists and gentlemen from the Middle East. Wonderfully entertaining (daily express)
