"Peg O'Connell doesn't know what she's getting into when, fresh off the
boat from America with just a parcel of clothes and her mongrel dog, she
arrives at the English estate of her rich and not altogether gracious
relatives. They are even less gracious than usual this day because
things are in a bit of a mess: the bank in which they kept all their
money has folded and all their money with it. The head of the manor,
Mrs. Chichester, abhors the stigma of being poor and being forced to
live with relatives she can't stand and who can't stand her. The grown
and spoiled daughter of the family is contemplating running away with a
married man to escape a life of poverty. The grown, idle and irritating
son is faced with a job for the first time in his life, but he can't do
anything! Their only financial hope is to take in Peg according to the
wishes of a late and disliked relative and give her a "proper" education
and social upbringing. Not an easy task, they fear. Confronted with
Peg's Irish down-to-earth forthrightness, her demand to be called Peg
not Margaret, her refusal to give up her beloved dog, and her strong
ideas about social class morality, it soon becomes obvious who is going
to educate whom! There is also love in the air when Peg meets a charming
neighbor with secrets. This sparkling adaptation of the 1912 American
classic retains all the wit, humor, romance and period charm of the
original but keeps the action flowing and the pace brisk. Peg o' My Heart will steal your heart!"
