Warner, a divorced woman in her 30's trying to balance her career and family in (still-xxxist) 1980s England; Margaret Thatcher may have been in 10 Downing Street, but Mrs. Warner was still suffering in a man's world. Mr. Jones and Mrs. Warner worked for the fictional multinational corporation called 8-Star

While Take A Letter, Mr. Jones worked to dispel stereotypes about female executives, it seemed to pander to others:

Mr. Jones could not escape the oddity of being a "male secretary" to a female boss - at least not without insinuation that there was xxxual interest between him (a 40-something bachelor) and Mrs. Warner. To the programme's credit (although not very realistically), no one who found it odd that Mr. Jones was a male secretary questioned his xxxuality.
Female secretaries at 8-Star used xxx to get along with their male bosses: when one mentions that she laddered her tights in the boss' office and suggests that the company should offer a clothing allowance, Mr. Jones quips that "It might just be cheaper to get him to cut his fingernails".
Much comedy is culled from Mrs. Warner's "mad Italian" maid Maria, an overweight, over-excitable, Italian woman whose English is below par (played by acclaimed British actress Miriam Margolyes, OBE). Along with being maid, Maria helped care for Mrs. Warner's 6-year old daughter Lucy (Claudine Bowyer).
John Inman starred in Take A Letter, Mr. Jones between seasons of the hit BBC comedy Are You Being Served?. Take A Letter, Mr. Jones was never a ratings success (only running one season), though it is enjoyed by John Inman fans.
