Ian McShane stars as the irresistible rogue with a keen eye for beauty... and trouble! This antiques dealer and part-time detective scours the murky salesrooms, auction halls, and stately homes of Britain, always on the lookout for a find. Lovejoy has a particular weakness for a good sob story or a pretty face, either of which is enough to send him off in pursuit of villains and help victims recover their property. Whether it's a priceless old master or a pretty young lady, his love of beauty is sure to land him in trouble wherever he goes. (official distributor synopsis)
