Don't tell Alfred. Fanny is married to bumbling, absent-minded Oxford don Alfred. She is content with her role as a plain, tweedy housewife, but her life changes overnight when Alfred is appointed English Ambassador to Paris.
When Fanny’s tender-hearted secretary begins filling the embassy with rescued animals and her teenage sons run away from Eton and show up with a rock star in tow, things get entirely out of hand. Gleefully sending up the antics of mid-century high society, Don’t Tell Alfred is classic Mitford.
