Illustrations for the book were provided by Glenn Heaton, who also worked on a number of Arlette’s other stories, including; ''Dancing Left'', ''Old Flag, New Flag'', ''Cousin George'', and ''New Blue Suit''. The book is Arlette’s fifth highest selling text of all time, having sold over eight and a half million paperback copies worldwide. The plot of the book is centred around the temperamental Lord Chamberlain of the household, who becomes increasingly infuriated whenever a new guest arrives early to a banquet. The protagonist eventually realises that they were acting irrationally and apologises to the guests, having learnt that some things do not always go as planned. When asked in interviews, Arlette often stated that she believed “adaptability” was the main moral of the story. ('''[[See_You_At_Ten|See more...]]''')
