Early 18th century. England is at war with France, yet duck racing and pineapple gorging are thriving. A frail Queen Anne occupies the throne, while her close friend Lady Sarah governs the country and tends to Anne's mercurial temper. When new servant Abigail arrives, her burgeoning friendship with the queen gives her a chance to fulfil her ambitions and she will not let woman, man, politics or rabbit stand in her way.
