      unlike some tv shows these days where women wear trouses years and years before that was ever allowed in public, let alone at work or when in uniform.
      or when they show women wearing ill-fitting clothes, in a time when everthing was tailored to the edge of breathtaking, the comfortable slouch is a very recent fashion item.

      Absolutely what a treat how enviable and wouldnt have been lovely to ride in one of those my grand pa and grandma owned one of those a rolsroyce an 6 seater and they’ d go for country rides and throw parties and my grandma was an excelent cook and they had one of those lovely old mansions not a overly big one but a suburban size with upstairs and palm trees and ferns at either side of the steps then in WW2 they lost it all they were sheltering jews and then they were ratted on by some ( better not say what Iam thinking ) and were put in a german prison camp anyway lucky they survived but the Jewish family didn’t unfortunately anyway they were human rights activists in their time in those days they were called humanists it was rather incredible time obviously my grand father was a Lithographer and a clever artist as well anyway great for the people who had money and dreadful for the poor like my mothers family but they all looked fabulous because they made their own clothes saved up for a few luxury items like her earings and necklaces allthough my father bought her some beautiful Jewellery and clothes which she loved they allways looked fabulous right up till their old age thanks for that comment it got me started iam 82 now and a lot of memories go through my head 🙂⭐️🌸👋🌺🍀🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘🌻🌻🌈🌈☔️☔️🌹🙏💟☮️☸️🕉️have a good life a healthy one and lots of happiness 🥰

    I once met Jean Heywood who played Aunt Dahlia in this episode. She was a charming and down to earth lady to talk to. She was very small and dinky which made her even more appealing. I told her how much I had enjoyed When The Boat Comes In - a series the dialogue of which had to be adapted so that the rest of the country could understand it. It was funny and moving simultaneously. And like these Wodehouse gems a landmark in British T.V.

    Watching the whole series - S04 E3 was my favorite until about 30 minutes ago. This is my new fave. Aunt Dahlia is a trip! Her willingness to drop all propriety and correctness and go along with whatever Jeeves suggests - and the bit with Mr. Burwash and Bertie with the vase - hilarious! But even better is "Daphne" - oh my gosh - probably Fry's best performance as Jeeves. And the scene with Stilton is priceless! Also love the look on Gorringe's face at 46:25 - so comical.

      The humour of the scene with Cheesewright punches up. The butt of the joke is men who (like Cheesewright) try to intimidate women into having sex with them. When Jeeves knocks Cheesewright onto his back at the end of the scene, he symbolically takes revenge for every woman who has ever had to escape from a situation just like this.

      Actually, in the book, Bertie steals the pearls by accident. He was supposed to be stealing Aunt Dahlias pearls from the safe and got 'Trotter's' by mistake.'

    The first Jeeves story was published in 1915, the last sixty years (!) later in 1975. None of these (with the exception of one novel) makes any reference whatsoever to contemporary events, so it is generally admitted that they are "timeless".
    For obvious reasons the TV program had to be situated in some sort of context. They picked, vaguely, a period from the mid-20s to the mid-30s.

    • @Ana_crusis
      @Ana_crusis 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Whilst they do live in their own world, they _are_ all 'set' more or less in a sort of 1920's time zone. That time was not chosen for the stories by the makers of the TV programmes. There are many aspects of the stories and the characters behaviour which do help to give a rough date. Gentlemen's clubs, Valets ( who, even among the rich, has them any more) the language above all...who talks like Bertie Wooster in the 40's or 50's etc. The attitudes displayed to family, old aunts etc. the visits to country seats of the wealthy and noble. Then there are the references to current technology..asking the operator to get you certain numbers, sending telegrams and so forth.
