tube overdrive filter section

I built a tube OD from a schematic I found online.
It was designed for 120v mains but I have adapted it to 220v operation since I live in a 220v country.
I have eliminated the voltage doubler section and used a full bridge rectifier and a single 33uf 350v cap and I am getting some kind of mains hum, which I believe is due to the filter section being inadequate. I think I need another filter cap, but I'm kind of a newb at this, so I'm pretty sure adding another cap just like this will not solve my problem. any help would be greatly appreciated.
