Just to finish this thread ...

Thanks for the replies.  I looked into tagging the directories that have
spaces in the name, but then found a much better solution - simply
enclose the path in double quotes and the spaces are handled perfectly:

  duplicity -v4 \
    "/home/directory with spaces" \
    scp://address@hidden//backup-directory

I should have known!
