Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
"Making the Grade" (Part 2 of six) follows the runup to Sir John and Lady Orliff-Cooper's first formal dinner (for 20). For family it's a "minefield" of protocal, but they don't have to do the work. And the staff, which does, comes to resent it more and more, particularly the new scullery maid (the first one quit after two days). And then, after Mr. Edgar decides to allow a staff party to let off steam, footman Charlie and hall boy Kenny are in no shape to work as the dinner looms. As to its cost: it's twice what Kenny would have earned in all of 1906. Derek Jacobi narrates.

About This Guide
This episode guide brings together the episode runtime, synopsis, series context, and nearby episode navigation for Manor House. That gives readers and search engines a clearer relationship between the episode and the parent series instead of treating the page as an isolated record.
Editorial Take
Making the Grade is presented as an episode-level guide that still keeps the parent series context visible, which is important because isolated episode pages can otherwise feel detached and thin. This episode sits at position 2 out of 6, so the page can answer both the runtime question and the progress question at the same time. The 1h runtime is especially useful here because episode search intent is often much more time-sensitive than general series search intent.
