Take 1,000 women, add one earl and whip into a media frenzy.
Reclusive academic Lord Noblet de Beeble doesn't want to get
married but his overbearing mother, Lady Caroline, is insisting he
must. When he places an advert for a wife in the Situations Vacant
section of his local newspaper, the national press pick up the
story. A desperate Noblet calls on his handsome younger brother,
Henry, to help him navigate the subsequent media frenzy. Among the
hordes of hopeful candidates to descend on the village of Gently
Rising is the beautiful and mysterious Mia Wild, who befriends
local primary school teacher, Alice Brand. Alice has been looking
for something to spice up her life, but getting embroiled in a very
public wife-hunt wasn't what she had in mind. In a summer packed
with suspicious exes, snobbery, social climbers and sausage rolls,
Gently Rising will bear witness to a public courtship like no
other. But who will come out on top?
