Announcing a new Jeeves and Wooster Email Project - My Pal Bertie

Remember the good old days, when we were waiting for letters from our friend Jonathan (via Dracula Daily)? Prepare to experience the thrill again…

From 1st March onwards this substack will send regular updates from P.G Wodehouse’s novel, The Inimitable Jeeves.

Bertie Wooster, the hero and narrator, writes in a friendly first person style that will soon feel like missives from an old and chatty friend.

this episode is killing me (and I love it)

[karhunkalloot]

been thinking about jeeves and wooster lately

[istra-ish-sucha-geek]

I dearly wish to be the kind of person who employs a personal chef SO EXTRAORDINARY, that I can blackmail people into doing things for me with the mere threat of not being invited over to enjoy one of his meals.

Being a Jeeves and Wooster fan means that sometimes I'm going to have "Sonny Boy" stuck in my head, unfortunately.

hello Jeeves and Wooster fandom, I humbly offer these

[deboracabral]

very good, sir

[yeah-thats-probably-it]

but what does specific dream-rabbit mean?

[kazbrekkeratemyson]

this is how I imagine Bertie looks every time he calls Jeeves in to fix one of his friend's nonsensical problems

Just reached the relevant scene via @my-pal-bertie , and every time I read or watch it I just think: has ANYONE, in the history of the universe, ever been so absolutely fucking delighted with life as Bertie Wooster when he’s just had it explained to him that the brother of the woman his aunt has been trying to strong-arm him into marrying is actually renowned con man Soapy Sid; that Sid and his “sister” stole Aunt Agatha’s pearls; that they almost successfully conned Bertie for the price of said pearls but were thwarted by Jeeves; and that Bertie, proof in hand, now gets to be the person to go break this scandal to his aunt? My contention: no. No they have not.

Like that is quite literally PG Wodehouse going “Sure sex is fine (I guess… I mean whatever), but has YOUR beloved retainer ever loved you enough to save you from engagement, rescue you from debt, and give you the means to rub your aunt’s face in the mud, all in one fell swoop, despite the fact that he can’t stand your scarlet cummerbund?? *DREAMY SIGHHHHHH*”
