Meanwhile, it is the only story in which we ever hear of Jeeves contemplating marriage for himself, though we are hardly surprised when this comes to nothing. Starring Michael Hordern and Richard Briers Available now There are currently no. It is here that we see all the familiar Wodehouse themes woven together into one story - an old schoolfriend round at the club needing help (the author’s mind seemed to be still at school to the end), an intimidating aunt who keeps trying to get Bertie married off, various uncles who need placating in order not to threaten the all-important.

If there has ever been a better comic situation than The Great Sermon Handicap, when one of Bertie’s chums opens a betting-book on the length of the Sunday church-sermons at various villages, then I have missed something special. The Inimitable Jeeves Home More escapades from PG Wodehouses most famous creations, Jeeves and Wooster. It is here that we see all the familiar Wodehouse themes woven together into one story - an old schoolfriend round at the club needing help (the author’s mind seemed to be still at school to the end), an intimidating aunt who keeps trying to get Bertie married off, various uncles who need placating in order not to threaten the all-important allowance… and all along, Jeeves the puppet-master, skilfully saving one situation after another, while also presuming to edit the young master’s wardrobe in suitable taste.

Wodehouse weaves his wit through a wide collection of terrifying aunts, miserly uncles, love-sick friends, and unwanted fiancees.

This is the first Jeeves and Wooster story the author ever wrote.
