jeeves and wooster - the complete series (clive exton)

what ho! well, this dvd boxset has certainly provided some delightful entertainment in my household. we´ve savioured every bit of it. thank you so much, mr christopher, for letting it us borrow it. what can i say? it's so funny. i love both fry and laurie, they are so well cast, but also all the secondary characters (tuppy, aunt delia,  fink-nottle,. aunt agatha, spode... i love them all!). and the use of the language is so rich (i know we probably have to thank mr p.g. wodehouse for that, but it's such a joy to hear). there are episodes in the first two series that are definitely some of my favourite moments in all tv history. they should have stopped after season 3, though, as the last series is really not up to the standard. oh, and, i warn you all: jeeves has become my ultimate fashion icon, he´s just awesome. i also want to speak like him, but i guess that will take me quite some time... oh well. toodle-oo, guys, i'm going to practice my newt dance.

  1. Soos glad you liked it. The characters are all so rich(as in a tapestry, not cash, though that too). "No cucumbers! Not even for ready money?", "Not even for ready money, sir".
