Summary

Once again, the plumbing at Tawcester Towers is causing consternation for the Dowager Duchess, so she gives her blessing for Blotto to take part in the Great Road Race in his beloved Lagonda...so long as he wins. The first prize of 10,000 pre-War sovereigns will help towards repairing the leaky ancestral home. Blotto elects to take chauffeur Corky Froggett as his spare mechanic, and the team are pitted against Europe's finest in a race that takes them across the Alps to the Colosseum in Rome. Everyone will resort to dastardly deception and fiendish sabotage to ensure Blotto's Lagonda is not the first car over the finishing line. Meanwhile, Twinks is despatched by her mother to the Highlands to paint - and bag herself a wealthy husband, but she's determined not to be left out..
