P.G.WODEHOUSE is so difficult to dramatize, and to catch Fry and Laurie at the exact right time in their careers.....awesome....I could watch 1000 episodes
Wodehouse is like Yorkie chocolate, Laura. Not for girls. You are taking a big risk and should try to wean off. I hear Rosie M Banks is much more suitable.
I loved this show so much when I was a teenager that I read all the books I could get my hands on. And when I discovered my local library didn’t have much P.G. Wodehouse, I found copies in bookshops and donated them so other people could enjoy them too.
It was.!!..I think few people realise that Totleigh Towers which appears in most episodes is a location Highclere Castle now world famous as Downton Abbey...@@gabriellag2611
I can only concur with the charming way so many people have praised Fry and Laurie in this series. I re-watch it often. It's lovely to be a member of the fan club.🙂🙂💯💯❤️❤️
Agreed! The music IS fantastic. You might want to read the Wikipedia article on Anne Dudley, the composer. She has won an Oscar and has worked with about everybody in the music world including Sting, McCartney, Tom Jones, Cher, Annie Lennox, Elton John...the list is staggering.
Absolutely. I can listen to and enjoy every time. All to often the music for a series gets tedious. I love this as a piece of music and one that seems among the best of its time. The animation with it is also just terrific and interesting to watch every time. Thanks to @rmphart, I shall look up Anne Dudley.

O Joy, Heaven😄❣️❣️ I've read Jeeves & Wooster all my life, been listening to audiobooks now my eyes are bad, but THIS 😄 Huge fan of Britcoms, saw 1st US broadcast of Monty Python on Dallas PBS, have watched Everything I could find on Frye &/or Laurie. Never knew about These, such a gift👍🏽👏🏾✌🏾🤟🏽❣️ The casting is so obvious and perfect. A million heartfelt thanks for posting these treasures😃 I'm trapped in a nursinghome 2 years now, and it's Bleak. These will brighten things exquisitely😄😘
I am so sorry about your captivity!!! I'm from Florida so I understand. I promised myself that I was still in Florida when I got old I would move. I was and I did. In NC now.
Well, on Radio 4 Extra the BBC sometimes repeat Jeeves & Wooster as performed by Michael Hordern and a young Richard Briers. This is also excellent, with the added bonus of letting me build the pictures in my head (although the Fry & Laurie version has rather spoiled that feature).
Bought up on the Ian Carmichael and Dennis Price version of the sixties but this is far and away the best rendition, both actors were made for their parts.
I love that dog. Years ago my brother went to a shelter to get his kids a dog. I asked what he came home with and he said, Some kind of hound. I pictured a beagle or basset hound. I laughed out loud when I met the beautiful creature, an Irish wolf hound, three feet tall!
Please note that Jeeves is a veddy veddy propah gentleman's valet.So when Bertram showed terrible lapses of bad taste in sartorial matters Jeeves is not going to stand for it.After all he has his own standing in the butlers' club up with which to keep.
Hang on, and I know its a bit after the event but wasn't he shocked at seeing the tie because he thought Mabel was going to give it to him? - she was, as they say, two timing them. (or was I half asleep)
"I shall be better directly. It's just... Mr Little's tie sir. It has little horseshoes on it. It's sometimes difficult just to shrug these things off, sir."
"would you like me to put it on another table, Sir..." & "Marriage is, I believe, the preliminary step for those willing to undergo it's rigors.."! - Oh Jeeves! Stephen Fry portrays Jeeves exquisitely from his vastly funny displays of verbal wit to his silent expressions, which say everything! Masterful!
These are addictive. Been catching up on old favourites. Worryingly, finding myself saying things like 'What Ho!' and pondering how many times Jeeves smacked his skull on those low beams.. The title music is a work of mastery. Did Hugh have a hand in that? { So bizarre for us all to be grey and wrinkled now - seems but a blink ago! 😵💫} 👋👋👋
I'm in love . . . . How many times have we heard this from those fellows? They are an unending college fraternity, Too much money, Too much time on hand and way too much pomposity. Delightful!
Actually, most of them have too little money. In this unspecified period after the First World War, these young men in spats (just too young to have been conscripted) all seem to be dependent on rich uncles for an allowance on which they are meant to live, and which many of them promptly place on Greased Lightning or Ballyrush in the 2:30 at Cheltenham, on the assurance from some acquaintance or other that this horse absolutely cannot lose ... It is never made clear, but it must be assumed that the absence of so many fathers (and the resulting dependence on uncles for financial support) is because they died during the war. Bertie's own parents are both dead, but he (unlike so many of his friends) inherited a large amount of money when he came of age.
What I enjoyed so much about the books was this kind of description: 'Jeeves shimmered into the room.' You can see him doing just that, as if he's moving on rails, at 2:18. So well done.
They try to do that sometimes in the show. Earlier, when Sir Roderick Glossop, thinks he hears a cat, and calls for Jeeves, Jeeves just pops into the picture, with no warning. Think they were trying to suggest the shimmer effect.
You might want to check out Hugh Laurie's novel The Gunseller. Not Wodehouse, but one can tell Laurie learned a lot from him and is paying tribute. Loved it.
The bland conversation at the dining table about the village rugby games causing the death of seven players and two spectators is very funny. Also, the reading of the books by Rosie M. Banks. This is a fun episode
At 6:37, Bingo takes Bertie to show-off his latest love interest Mabel. She works at the 'Aerated Bread Co'. The tea-room/bakery/restaurant actually existed as a large chain. These tearooms provided the first public places where women could eat, alone or with women friends. And the loaves of bread we see were the first to introduce carbon dioxide gas instead of fermentation claiming perfect cleanliness & automation.
There is a brilliant miniseries about "Victorian bakers" where they talk about it and make some bread like that (which actually tasted horrible). Just look for "victorian bakers" here on youtube and hope they havent deleted it yet.
My mother as a young teenager worked as a waitress at the LIONS tea rooms in London, they were a large chain at the time in the 20s 30s and 40s and where still around when i was a boy, cream teas, Yummie.
terry moore actually, Lyons. I remember having an evening meal with my parents at the Lyons Corner House near Trafalgar Square in the 1950’s. It had both tables and a ‘diner’ type horse shoe shaped counter where one waitress waited on many people at once- unusual, I think, for the UK at that time.
Technically Mr Wooster is not unemployed- the official UK definition is those 16 or over who are available to start work in the next fortnight and have been actively seeking work in the last 4 weeks. I guess Mr Wooster would be classed as NEET- not in education, employment or training.
The decor takes me back to when i was a little girl. Delightful. Years since seeing this series. More recently Fry. Dawson. Hitchens. Since Christopher's death. First time of seeing young Fry. Time has changed the World so much.
"Barbara tossed her auburn curls rebelliously. Her dark eyes flashed. Her father might be only a mill-hand but she had the pride of the Ormskirks, that same pride that had prompted her grandfather, old Stanley Ormskirk, to stand firm when threatened with eviction from his humble cottage by Lord Ramchester for refusing to doff his cap."
My favorite line for the series is "Slack jawed aristocracy"Jeeves says it in his disapproval of aristocrats marrying each other . He felt there was too much inbreeding causing this malady
A tribute to Actor Jeremy Brett on 12th September. Though fictional Character Sherlock Homes remained today, the real one has left us twenty three years ago. But he lives in our heart. Still I amaze why I feel to see him on screen again and again have no answer. Such a craving to watch his movies never felt with any before. He remains forever. Vejayanandch
Uyeee Love this ...still..decades after.¡¡¡¡!!! .classy entertainment fun & clever.,beautifully directed in English countryside...script + Hugh Laurie &Steven Fry..perfect harmony in role & chemistry..
J: ..by an odd coincidence, sir, it is the same young person in whom Mr. Little has been so interested. W: What, Mable? J: Yes, sir. W: Good Lord, Jeeves.. ..... .. ...... ... ..... Well, poor old Bingo. Bertie knows how good Jeeves is at getting what he wants. lol
Haha poor Bertie, he really does get himself into some scrapes - mind you he doesn't have bring it on himself! And Jeeves being horrified by that tie. Brilliant! :D
I like the character Jeeves...so cool...has all the time in the world! Look at his each calculated action at 4.40 while he readies the suitcases...he seems to be having 40 hrs in a day!
Of course, Jeeves and Wooster are the best characters, and Hugh and Stephen are perfection. But I also love Tuppy Glossop. Robert Daws is hilarious. I enjoy the episodes with him as a guest star the most.
There is not one bad thing that can be said about this program, it is timeless and charming. Shame TV has lost the ability to make programs of this calibre.
Oh I say, that's not fair. Bertie can make a cup of tea, we see him doing it in another episode. True, he needs to consult a large how-to book before he can start, and he manages to burn himself in the process, but I have to say that he is capable of mastering the intricacies of tea-making, just about. Almost, anyway.

Can not imagine anyone else in these roles, and the supporting cast has to be recognized as superb. What a complete delight.
Hugh Laurie as Bertie is about as perfect as it gets.
It’s wonderfully that the episode where Bertie wants to get married is one of the few where no one tries to marry him off
The characters are so terribly British. I love it.
That's Stephen Fry as Jeeves? Wonderful!!
Bertie is so pure and kind. I just love his character.
This programme has the best opening sequence I know. The music is fantastic and the drummer - well, whoever drew him should get an award.
Agreed! The music IS fantastic. You might want to read the Wikipedia article on Anne Dudley, the composer. She has won an Oscar and has worked with about everybody in the music world including Sting, McCartney, Tom Jones, Cher, Annie Lennox, Elton John...the list is staggering.

My favorite line for the series is "Slack jawed aristocracy"Jeeves says it in his disapproval of aristocrats marrying each other . He felt there was too much inbreeding causing this malady
Stephen Fry was born to play Jeeves,the only other contenders I can think of are Charles Dance,John Cleese or Nigel Hawthorne
A tribute to Actor Jeremy Brett on 12th September.
Though fictional Character Sherlock Homes remained today, the real one has left us twenty three years ago. But he lives in our heart. Still I amaze why I feel to see him on screen again and again have no answer. Such a craving to watch his movies never felt with any before. He remains forever.

Bertie: Bingo wants to marry a waitress.
Bingo: *snorts into soup*

An improving PUB
Reproving.... not improving 😂
45:48 appreciating Laurie's stunned mackerel look
J: ..by an odd coincidence, sir, it is the same young person in whom Mr. Little has been so interested.
W: What, Mable?
J: Yes, sir.
W: Good Lord, Jeeves.. ..... .. ...... ... ..... Well, poor old Bingo.
Bertie knows how good Jeeves is at getting what he wants. lol
jetlagsyndrome Hahaha so true
"It's the bally balliness of it all, makes it seem so bally bally."
"Marriage is the preliminary step..." How refreshingly old-fashioned.
"This is no time for thought Jeeves."
"Did your proposal meet the sympathetic ears, sir?" Just how many ways can they find to ask questions?! Don't get me wrong. I enjoy them.
Stephen Fry is I think quite clumsy yet carries off the handling of bottles, glasses, trays etc to perfection
He's the grace of a great bear.
Haha poor Bertie, he really does get himself into some scrapes - mind you he doesn't have bring it on himself! And Jeeves being horrified by that tie. Brilliant! :D
I like the character Jeeves...so cool...has all the time in the world! Look at his each calculated action at 4.40 while he readies the suitcases...he seems to be having 40 hrs in a day!
that character had an amazing talent of reading books outloud.
He did have an ulterior mtorive...
A skill I do not have even though an avid reader. 😢
Jeeves´s reaction to Bingo´s necktie 8:47 was hilarious.
Of course, Jeeves and Wooster are the best characters, and Hugh and Stephen are perfection. But I also love Tuppy Glossop. Robert Daws is hilarious. I enjoy the episodes with him as a guest star the most.
I named a parrot Gussy Finknoddle, the nerd who likes neuts.
This episode reminds me of when I used to work in child care! ☺️
There is not one bad thing that can be said about this program, it is timeless and charming. Shame TV has lost the ability to make programs of this calibre.
Among the many hilarious
Things in this episode, is Berties synopsis of the play.
Patrick is adorable
I believe he also speaks well of you Sir. (or Madam)
It's 6am...why can I not stop watching?
Addictive, isn't it?
26:30 -"Perhaps, Mr. Wooster - a story about hard work, study and healthy living?" All of which are foreign concepts to young Bertie Wooster :D
3:53 -- Bertie can't even make a cup of tea, yet he wants to raise a child.
Why would he need to make a cup of tea when he has Jeeves?
Harry JFW, so could Jeeves make the child 🌚
Not make a child but raise a child as Mr. French did in Family Affair
He would not be the first!
Oh I say, that's not fair. Bertie can make a cup of tea, we see him doing it in another episode. True, he needs to consult a large how-to book before he can start, and he manages to burn himself in the process, but I have to say that he is capable of mastering the intricacies of tea-making, just about. Almost, anyway.
Leave it to Wooster to have a rubber duckie!!! Some people never grow up.
Superb acting and Brilliant production
