  • Mapp and Lucia is a collective name for a series of novels by E. F. Benson and also the name of two British television adaptations based on those novels. The first novel, Queen Lucia, was published in 1920, and introduced Mrs. Emmeline "Lucia" Lucas, the social leader in the fictional town of Riseholme, her husband Robert "Pepino" Lucas, best friend Georgie Pillson, and rival Daisy Quantock. The second novel, Miss Mapp, was published in 1922, and introduced Miss Elizabeth Mapp, the ferocious queen of another fictional seaside town, Tilling. The third, Lucia in London (1927), brought Lucia and Pepino from Riseholme to London, while her Riseholme neighbours seethed. With the fourth novel, Mapp and Lucia (1931), Benson brought the characters from the previous three books together, with a freshly-widowed Lucia moving to Tilling with Georgie, and battling Mapp for control of the town's social life. This storyline continued in (1935) and (1939), making six books in all. The 1985 television adaptation, originally broadcast on Channel 4, starred Geraldine McEwan as Lucia, Prunella Scales as Mapp and Nigel Hawthorne as Georgie, in ten episodes adapting the fourth, fifth and sixth novel. The 2014 television series originally broadcast on BBC One, starred Anna Chancellor as Lucia, Miranda Richardson as Mapp, and Steve Pemberton as Georgie, in three episodes adapting Mapp and Lucia, and incorporating a storyline from Queen Lucia.
