About The Nanny
About the show:
Fran Fine (Fran Drescher), a middle-class Jewish girl from
Queens, is hired by stuffy British-born theatrical agent Maxwell
Sheffield (Charles Shaughnessy) to be the nanny for his three
motherless children: shy Maggie (Nicholle Tom), wheeler-dealer
Brighton (Benjamin Salisbury), and button-cute Grace (Madeline
Zima).
Comfortably installed in Maxwell's posh Manhattan town house,
outspoken Fran immediately runs afoul of snooty butler, Niles
(Daniel Davis), who despite his forbidding demeanor was a softie at
heart - and who infinitely preferred Fran's company to that of
Maxwell's overbearing business partner Chastity Claire "C.C."
Babcock (Laura Lane).
