Ellen sings another song as Tom plays the piano and Lord John hangs out with the Bowens.

Part five
Tom and Ellen both get stood up for the clambake at Klingers after the show. The show opens in London with a sassy song and number - a good for nothing liar.

Is that Lionel Ritchie? - no of course not! It's Fred Astaire dancing on the ceiling and walls in a rotating room

Part six
Tom walks home and is thrilled his prospects with Anne have improved. Tom does an incredible scene in a room that is set up to rotate - allowing Fred Astaire to literally dance on the ceiling. A remarkable effect, especially considering the year (1951) - but the wizardry of Fred Astaire's dancing leaves you breathless. Tom learns that Anne's beau in Chicago got married. Tom performs another song and dance number for the show.

Part seven
What's going to happen to Lord John and Ellen? Will To get together with Anne or will they both leave town for the next show? And what about Queen Elizabeth? - Watch the conclusion and find out!
