Scotch Mist
Overview
Alison Fairlie takes a holiday from her decorating job in London, and settles into the Glenlochart House, a quiet little hotel frequented by gentlemen fishermen, run by the most pleasant Neil McPherson.
Alison soon attracts the attention of young Roddy Tosh, the spoiled son of a wealthy businessman but Roddy and Alison have different expectations about their relationship. Then Alison's freeloading mother shows up at the hotel to take advantage of Alison's hospitality. Alison's irresponsible sister has had to cancel her planned cruise and also shows up at the hotel to cause more complications. The proprietor of the Glenlochart House is finally convinced that he should go into another line of work altogether, "A hotel is all very well, but I didn't bargain to find myself running a lunatic asylum."
