Morse, to his initial dismay, is pursued by a bona fide rich senior gentleman (Cyril Ritchard). As Morse dances with Ritchard, comes to enjoy being courted and finally announces that he is engaged, the show achieves both its most comic and affecting peak.

Presumably Americans would know their candidates so well that they would not elect a woman whose husband would be the power behind the throne.
