Janice Beard - Segretaria in carriera (1999)
Nata e cresciuta a Glasgow, Janice Beard, ventiquattrenne, vive con la madre agorafobica alla quale vorrebbe invece dimostrare che la vita fuori di casa può essere meravigliosa, soprattutto se supportata da molta fantasia. Decisa a trovare i soldi per affrontare tutte le cure necessarie, Janice si trasferisce a Londra alla ricerca di un lavoro che le permetta di pagare le costose medicine. Approda così, grazie all'amica Violet, negli uffici di una compagnia automobilistica, dove trova non poche difficoltà ad inserirsi nella routine lavorativa. La sua ingenuità la fa entrare in contrasto con la responsabile del settore, Julia, ragazza all'apparenza molto sicura di sé. Sean, un commesso, è attratto dal candore di Janice, ma lui, in realtà, è un infiltrato nell'azienda allo scopo di rubare i piani di lancio del nuovo modello di autovettura da consegnare alla ditta concorrente.
