    "This is on TV every new years eve in Denmark. It's not a proper new years eve without this. If you think about it, the backstory is quite sad. All the friends are
    gone and the loyal butler still keeps making the old biddy happy."

    It has also been on German TV for ages and will again be shown on New Year's Eve on a couple of TV channels. It's hardly known in English-speaking countries, though. Several lines from it can be quoted by almost everyone, like "I'll do my very best." - with which James promises to prove his virility to Miss Sophie in "the same procedure as every year."
