The Palace (2008)

S1E6 Episode 6

Inside Clarence House, Eleanor jolts awake in terror as an intruder creepily compliments her beauty. Meanwhile, Natalie, Eleanor's dresser, encounters Simon on the stairs. The intruder leans closer, claiming he’s touched Eleanor before and asks if he can do it again, leaving her paralyzed with fear. Just then, Natalie rushes in and yells, nearly pulling Eleanor to safety as she tackles the intruder. Police officers storm in moments later. Alice reveals to Abi that she’s had feelings for Richard since their time at Gymkhana camp. She asks Abi for help to get closer, but finds her friend less supportive than expected. Doubting their friendship, Alice wonders if there’s something going on between Richard and Abi. In a bid to prove otherwise, Abi manages to get Alice invited to Neil’s supposedly exclusive wedding.
