In the eighteenth century, Pamela, a servant girl in the household of Lord Devenish, must fight off the advances of her young master, a gentleman determined to have Pamela as his mistress.

Critical reception

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "What the makers clearly had in mind was Carry On Tom Jones." Time Out wrote, "Richardson's 18th century classic Pamela clearly dredged up for its bawdy possibilities ... About all the film has in common with the original is a notable lack of humour."
