Let Them Eat Cake is a British sitcom that aired on BBC One in 1999.

The most reviled woman in France is the ambitious and immoral Comtesse de Vache, who stalks the halls of the Palace of Versailles, spreading terror into the hearts of her fellow aristocrats by gathering their darkest and most intimate secrets.

The Comtesse's servants are her maid, former sex worker Lisette, and her flamboyantly gay couturier, Bouffant.

Her constant rival is Madame de Plonge, who is accompanied by her naïve yet sharp-witted daughter, Eveline.

Steadman was credited as a "special guest star" despite appearing in four of the six episodes.
