Fran Drescher stars as Fran Fine, a street-smart young woman, with a face out of Vogue and a voice out of Queens, in the ‘90s runaway hit, The Nanny.

Fran, fresh out of her job as a bridal consultant in her boyfriend's shop is working as a door-to-door cosmetics saleswoman when she stumbles onto the opportunity to become nanny to the children of a wealthy Broadway producer, Maxwell Sheffield (Charles Shaughnessy). Once Fran realises Mr Sheffield is not only wealthy but also a widower, she eagerly takes the job. But she’ll need the help of butler Niles to snare Mr Sheffield whose socialite business partner C.C. Babcock has her eyes on Maxwell for herself!

It’s a situation of blue-collar meets blue blood, as Fran gives the prim-and-proper Maxwell and his problem children a dose of ‘Queens logic’, helping them become a healthy, happy family.
