As the title says, the sweet but penniless Jane is looking for a job, any job, to pay her rent and get a decent meal. Opportunity seems to knock at her door when she is selected, among several girls, to impersonate the visiting Grand Duchess of a small country at public events. The risk is high, because the Duchess may be the target of a kidnapping or even an assassination attempt, but Jane thinks that the generous fee makes it all worth it. The impersonation goes well - so well, in fact, that Jane finds herself kidnapped....This episode has winning performances from its cute leading ladies (Elizabeth Garvie - see also the Marple movie "The Mirror Crack'd" - and Amanda Redman), and a smart twist in the middle, but the second half is flatly paced, and it's disappointing that the capture of the bad guys is never even shown. **1/2 out of 4.
