      An older audience will remember Ian Carmichael (Wooster) and Dennis Price (Jeeves) from the 1960s BBC TV series - sadly only a couple of episodes remain the rest of the tapes having been wiped for reuse - a bit like painting over the Sistine Chapel ceiling if you ask me!

      @@jeffreycrawley1216 They look too old, far too much. Wooster when he first met Jeeves was about 24 and Jeeves was described as "darkish, respectable" man by him. No mention of Jeeves' age, but he used to be engaged with a young lady who was around Bertie's age range.

      @@thichinhphan4010 According to P G Wodehouse who ought, after all, to know:
      "Jeeves-first heard of at the age presumably of about thirty-five in 1916" (letter PGW to Robert Hall 1961)
      As a lot of the American stories are set in the Speakeasy era - say mid 1920s - that would put Jeeves at about 55.
      Meanwhile the definitive reference work Wodehouse in Woostershire says Wooster was roughly 10 younger than his valet.
      But, then again, it IS escapist fiction and Jeeves would have been about 85 (in real terms) by the last of the books.

    I think we should all chip in and rent or purchase a great house in Wodehouse-land, I believe Shropshire has been identified as having many of the landmarks in the Wodehouse novels- and have actors dressed 1920's style, with food, music, newspapers, magazines, dance styles, songs, etc. of that ear. We charge people to stay for 3 days while the characters act out one of the stories. What do you all think? The guests would also dress in 1920's fashion and try to speak as Wodehouse characters...this would be brilliant fun, what ho!

    The writing is brilliant. Great writing comes from the heart and the truth of the writer's lived experience. Wodehouse must have lived this in his youth, and dedicated his life to these wonderful stories. The characters are timeless because we can all aspire to a life as lived by Bertie Wooster - wealth, ease, endless weekend estate parties and recreational activities. But more so, we can identify with the highly intelligent Jeeves who has to work for a living and use his wits to disentangle his master from daily mishaps. Yes, we have all suffered under the tyranny of incompetent managers and had to think our way out of office politics...Jeeves and Wooster ring true because they are true of our lived human experience.

    From what I gather, these books were generally considered "low brow" at the times of their publications... Plum Wodehouse wrote all sorts of fruity little paper-back diversions; mostly for ladies' magazines and periodicals (think "Reader's Digest"), published in weekly/monthly episodes... Although the "Jeeves" stories are now his most well-known and cherished, there are many other Wodehouse characters worth exploring...

Spode is the best - I mean they're all great but Spode for me is guaranteed laughs. Ulilly or is it ullily, they haven't brought that up again since season 2, I think. I love all the great comments below as well, most made me laugh. What ho!

    I do believe that Wooster is rather a brighter bulb than everyone puts him down to be! He does tend to catch onto things rather quickly, and seems only to look a little dim when posted next to the endless wit and wile of Jeeves! (put that would happen to the best of us, what?). Don't so pigeonhole the poor fellow Aunt Dahlia, he's trying his best!

Cap d'Antibes (luxury - no cooking or housework, laundry service, etc.) and Cuba...at the time an appealing resort... Don't turn your back on the "proles" chaps!

    • @DeirdreMcNamara
      @DeirdreMcNamara Před rokem +3

      Indeed. I see Wooster as a bright but sensitive boy who lost his mother at an early age and was then passed from aunt to sunt, barely tolerated by some, Aunt Agatha for one...sending his self confidence into the compost heap and setting him up for Jeeves wiles. No way will Jeeves be "chucked out" by a wife till Jeeves himself is settled in domestic bliss. Where else will he find such an obliging boss!

    This episode is adapted from "Comrade Bingo" (collected in The Inimitable Jeeves) and "Jeeves Makes an Omelette" (collected in A Few Quick Ones). You're not quite seeing a Wodehouse story as he wrote it. It's always best to go read the books to get the real thing, then you can better appreciate the TV adaptations .. which are pretty good.

      In the contract, They had to make the episodes a very specific length of time to within a few seconds, which is why they combined a few rather sparse stories together, and otherwise fill them in with piano singalongs, slightly overwrought scenes, and other assorted stuff.
