During its first season, Bravo TV's new reality show 'Ladies of London' has given viewers a rare look inside British high society. The season finale, 'Guess Who's Coming to Dinner,' airs Monday, July 21 (10:00 pm ET). But after the credits roll, fans of the show can still explore the posh life for themselves, if only on vacation.
