Adaptation of the John Hadfield novel. Civil servant Jasper Pye has been denounced as boring by his girlfriend. He therefore decides to quit his job and to become an artist in Paris. His superiors have other ideas however; they decide that he is the perfect man to be sent to dismantle a government statistical research unit. The unit is housed in a stately home and Jasper is soon distracted by the three daughters of owner Lord Flamborough. He finds himself cast headlong into the local lifestyle.
It is 1957. Unassuming Ministry of Information civil servant Jasper Pye is sent to Arcady Hall in Norfolk to report on the long-overlooked Department of Output Statistics, housed there for the past 17 years with a staff of just three.
Arcady Hall and its unconventional inhabitants continue to work their magic on prim and proper civil servant Jasper Pye. But it is the amorous advances of "wicked" Belinda, inexperienced Matilda and already married Chloe that seem certain to make Pye forget his conventional behaviour, his staid morality and even the reason for his visit.
Jasper Pye is urgently needed for the annual village cricket match. But an unscheduled drinking bout threatens the day's play.
The fate of Arcady Hall is sealed by a confession from Miss Mounsey. Jasper Pye finds the residents are more interested in the approaching village fete. As he faces the future, a twilight stroll gives the Arcady magic a chance to work once more.
