Miss Scarlet and the Duke plot
When Eliza's father dies, he leaves her penniless at a time when marriage is her only option for financial security. But the stubborn Eliza is determined to find another way. Fortunately, she has an asset up her sleeve - her father's company - a private detective agency. Eliza knows all the tricks of the trade, but as a dignified 19th-century lady, she was never allowed to put them into practice. To operate in this man's world, she needs a partner. She finds it in Scotland Yard Inspector William Wellington, who is also known as "The Duke".

Eliza Scarlett, with her hair up, hat, a fitting suit and a sweet smile, is a private detective and that is considered inappropriate and unbelievable in the time in which she lives. Besides, the inferior position of women in the social ladder is a point that is touched on in every episode. "Women are allowed to study, but not graduate...".
The series is of the lighter crime genre and sometimes not even. So don't expect shocking crime scenes and an intricate intrigue that will give you headaches, no, the playful takes precedence together with the wit of our heroine of course.
A relaxing and recurring item, for example, is Scarlett's charming love-hate relationship with the Duke, an ambitious police inspector, with whom she has some sort of reciprocal partnership agreement - which is not always true for the Duke - which leads to funny situations. and replies.
And then there's Ruppert, who loves to talk about his will or unwillingness to marry...
No, you should not expect heavy crime fare. Whoever does that and still watches will give a 0.5 and that will lower the average score and Eliza and co did not deserve that either.
