A sweet tale following Mrs Palfrey (Joan Plowright) a lonely
widow as she moves to The Claremont Hotel in London in order to gain some
independence following a stay with her daughter.
Having read about the hotel she has high hopes of her new
accommodation, but after moving in she is disappointed and wonders what she has
let herself in for.
However a chance meeting with a young writer called Ludo (Rupert
Friend) causes a friendship to blossom and with their shared love of poetry Mrs
Palfrey begins to enjoy life again.
I found this TV movie very enjoyable to watch as a sweet
afternoon film, though I was slightly disappointed with the ending as I was
left feeling a bit cheated and with unanswered questions.
