Приколы
Over the years my dear late Dad collected many Bertie Wooster titles, and I shared his love of all those absurd stories. When he died no other family members wanted them so I ended up with the entire collection. The humour is timelessly funny.
A very worthy legacy.
these shows are great, but the books are legendary- the use of language is amazing
The low key judgement and sass from the man in the lift is the best part of this one
My wife Sarena is the young lady enjoyimg drinks at the bar!
What, what!
Lucky 🍀 you!
I say!
Good for you. ☺️
And?
Tuppy is Toad from Wind in the Willows. Pure and simple.
Lou Cazin poop poop
Plus a complete nincompoop
I thought the exact same thing !!
He's Toad, absolutely !!
I love how the nature sounds keep Bertie awake, lol
"Do you remember Mr Todd?"
"No, sir"
"Yes you do, Jeeves"
"Very good, sir"
I love it when Jeeves gives Wooster a hard time about what he wants to wear. 😂
I love it when Wooster has to get out of being engaged! 🤣
What ho Bertie? I have become addicted to P.G. Wodehouse. What a talented writer. I literally laugh out loud during Bertie's misadventures. I have almost completely forgotten that Bertie was also "House" the polar opposite of Bertie. And then there's Jeeves magnificence as the straitlaced man-servant. Steven Fry is the perfect choice for this character.
Can't say that I've so thoroughly enjoyed a British farce as much as this. And to think I discovered it totally by accident; serendipity is the word of choice in this instance. 😅
The elevator man is WONDERFUL!!))😘 Charming Ricco Ross in this episode..
Helen Anderson “praise be I don’t” 🤣👍
And so handsome!
@@deshadevor2481 behave! 🤣🤣
Yes he is yummy 😋
I really like his mix of being professional, but drawing lines when one of the two debauched upper class twits starts making up silly excuses.
And yes, Bertie looks good in some of those suits (even without a violin case), but Mr. Ross outshines him.
this is my only chance to assemble a disreputable past, and i'm going to take it .... that's brilliant
"I had too much to drink...much too much!" (I love Ronan Vibart in this role) (pip pip)
How did they film all this without CGI? The clothes on the extras! The ship! The vehicles! The woodwork! So gorgeous!
Well, easy. Instead of hiring a team of animators, designers, programmers, renting motion capture equipment, paying copyright for digital assets, etc, they instead hired builders, hairdressers, costume designers, bought a lot of wood, paint, cloth, rented furniture and looked for locations.
If you're curious about the process, wait until the credits of any movie or show and you can see almost everybody they used. Some jobs you can find there have funny names, like "best boy", "snow sprayer" or "grip"
besides what @taiyoqun said. those same people who do the set dressing and what not often take on a role as a ''name less'' background people. As a way to include them in a role.
I do have to say I wonder how they got the skyline shots fit within the 1930th style. did they use one of the fixed Holywood mock New York set or reused older B role from a other media.
@@sirBrouwerthere are miles and miles of footage of skylines, vehicles and crowds available in online archives.
I think the costumers deserved Emmy's all round! Exquisite;
@@ecouturehandmades5166 The show was made in the early 90's, so archive footage would have been in studio vaults, not online.
Being from the 30's, the skyline and Times Square shots must have been colorized.
@@CalvinosaurI actually remember this being mentioned in the intro to this episode from my family's vhs recording off pbs when it had a masterpiece theater intro by someone or other. He mentioned the times square footage is in fact rare color film from close to that period. I don't remember the exact year he said, it sounded like it was slightly later than the period while still a surprising find.
Love that Tuppy tries to apologise to the French captain by calling him senor and then instead of quel dommage (what a shame) says quel fromage (what cheese) "and all that"! 😂
When followed by a noun the sentence "Quel frommage?" means "which cheese?"
They love it when you try the lingo.
Tuppy dropped a malapropism but in French...
And the captain did not throw Tuppy overboard for throwing the bread into his soupbowl and for misspeaking in Spanish (which can be considered as an insult). Other captains might not be so charitable.
And the Stutz Bearcat becomes the Fritz Polecat.
Bertie climbing Stoker's mansion was really well done.
Agreed! 😂
Never read any book of jeevies and Wooster, started watching it here in youtube by accident, and the more I watch the better it gets, it´s truly a gem. Everything is perfect, the acting, the set, the drama, just great!
They say you would not be disappointed by now reading the books if able to do so.
@@jakeornot6306 The books are available on Audible now, read by Stephen Fry and they are wonderful.
I love the elevator man so much 😂
Love how Wooster calls the looney bin "the Happy Tablet Academy" LOL!!
Cynthia Figueroa
Am writing THAT one down!
(In voice of Stewie Griffin)
The old puzzle factory what what
Is that because he is an absolute cad? In his period setting they were drilling holes in the forced detainees heads to let the devil out. Or putting them on the jumpy jumpy table for some ammusing shock therapy. There were no tranquillizers. Tens of thousands including tabloid media thought the government corrupt when making laws which made a person a criminal for drinking a beer. You know Joe Kennedy the Gangster, Boot legger, Mafia associate (Or mob associate) had his own daughter sent for her drilling before she died. But who was the real gangster? Joe or her? He was the father of Presedent Kennedy. So is it a cad who chooses to call sedatives, happy pills Have you ever studied the real statistics of how many millions suffered or died on those some laugh at as supposed Happy Pills. Sorry. But they are not as supposedly as funny as some try to make out.
Sounds like something House would say!
I love the invention of a "Spritz Polecat". It's a play on the very first sports car produced in America, the Stutz Bearcat. Stutz went on to compete with Packard, Auburn, and Duesenberg, lasting until 1935. I wonder if it's one of P. G. Wodehouse's original jokes.
Love Jeeves and Wooster, this is just how I imagined the stories as I read them.
And to the people who are pointing out mistakes, who cares, everybody makes mistakes, just ignore them and let the magic of Jeeves and Wooster wash over you
Same here. Although I did come into it already being a massive fan of both Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie. I really wish they'd do something similar now. Maybe take similar characters but transplant them to the contemporary United States setting and let the *massive* dissonance with well, everything write the script! An eccentric with endless resources and an obsession with classic life would be beyond hilarious and I'd wager, quite enlightening. :)
@@karmafride1237 it's well worth reading the books as well as watching these
Mistakes? One clown posted after an episode......I forget which one.........that the animation at the start, is not how a drummer........er, drums....lol
@@mikejonesnoreally yes indeed
Perfectly put
This show was a delight then and is still a delight. It is also great fun to watch the work of so many young and talented actors still doing fine work even now. What fun to discover them here, on UTube!
pretty impressive eye for detail. at 16:08 we see an American flag, and I thought for sure it would be the one with 50 stars. it's not. it has 48, as would be appropriate for the era.
I say, you have eye of an eagle, sir!
Yes but at 10:10 we have a shot of Tmes Square with the 2 way traffic pattern of that day but at 13:13 we see a night shot with the more recent one way southbound flow.
Also at 13:13 the Coca-cola billboard has the catch phrase " It's the real thing " which I don't think came into use until much later.
@@brian13105 1972.
Stoker was not driving his own fancy car but some regular period automobile (the scene he goes out with his daughter and Tuppy). That is if we are looking for a slip :-)
I love how the British gentleman did everything wearing a suit and tie. Burglary, gardening, warfare...
Sometimes all three at once.
I live in Italy and older retired guys still wear ties and look nice and are clean every day. American guys are disgusting about cleanliness and dressing before age 15 and after age 35.
some still do wear a tie for the oddest things, - look up Colin Furze doing anything dangerous if you are unbelieving.....@@julieporter7805
One has spent a most agreeable afternoon rather enjoying Bertie and his gentlemens gentlemen .
This is the books coming to life. Best hours of my life. Saw it on TV when it first came out. Love it.
"A violin case would complete the effect very creditably, sir."
A great line!
Epic Jeeves response.
This adaption is so spot on that, whenever I read the original Wodehouse stories, it's impossible not to hear Jeeves' voice as Stephen Fry and Bertie's as Hugh Laurie.
Short of actually filming in New York, Granada did a great job of creating early 30's New York. As well as the wonderful Fry and Laurie, the production values helped to make this the definitive Jeeves and Wooster. It's no wonder nobody has seriously tried since.
Absolutely true, but yanks of a certain age will immediately note the anachronism on the electric billboard in Times Square saying that Coke is "the Real Thing." That slogan didn't launch any earlier than about 1970, together with a horrid song written to support it. In the '30s Coke was just beginning to use its three-decade "Pause that Refreshes." In fairness, Granada didn't have much in the way of CGI to work with at the time of J&W, but the lapse is still a bit surprising.
@@MrPontificator not to mention the Canadian Club sign in Times Square which would not have been there during prohibition.
@@jimbonacum8917 Good spotting!
not to mention...it was called the Great White Way because all the signs and light were ordinary white light..not colored lights at that time at Times Square.
@@MrPontificator et al,
All you Guys with Eagle Eyes! 🤣
_"Yeah, I'm terribly sorry, señor. Quel fromage and all that! That'll hold him. They love it when you speak the old lingo."_ 😂
Tuppy is so silly
Hilarious episode, nobody gawps as well as Hugh Laurie! And Tuppy's acting when he was purchasing those cars was superb!
The elevator attendant gets funnier with every scene
I love the hat with his elevator uniform.
It looks like it was made for it.
Tops off the ensemble quite nicely !!
29.38 is my favorite part of this episode, Jeeves is slightly terrifying when he's angry. I love whenever he has to re-evaluate Bertie and go, "It could be far worse."
He is a better person than I am. I would have gone the Eddie Murphy from Trading Places route: "GET THE F&_$ OUT!!!!"
The young women's fashion in this episode is amazing!
6:50 I say, I've never seen Bertie so demonstratively tactile with a lady before. Must be all that sea air.
Rather!
well actually when he is left to his passions, golf, sports, drinks, locals, he is quite knowledgeble. I remember in the golf episode it was the noises that distracted him. It's ussualy his friends and aunts that put him in trouble, otherwise i would imagine he would be pleasant. Especially to american girls.
@@grigturcescu6190
Bertie was a rackets blue at Oxford. 😂
@@grigturcescu6190 This response is misplaced. I agree that Bertie isn't stupid, but OP was about him being "handsy" with women in this episode, not his intelligence.
Indeed. Eh what
Anyone else craving a special, period cruise after watching this episode? I'm thinking no outfits past 1950's, dancing the Charleston, and the karaoke would be era-appropriate too: only tunes such as "Sonny Boy" and "it's a long way to Tipperary". Any takers?
It would be great once the pandemic was over.
"Sonny Boy" was ruined for me thanks to Season 1, Episode 2 of this show. 😌😆 No, but seriously, I'm in!
That look Jeeves gives Bertie when he wants his "American hat"21:46🤣
One cannot deny the genuine merriment I have undertaken in this viewing. Twas smashing to see Jeeves and Wooster on the other side of the pond, engaging in merriment and hi-jinx. Spot of sherry, anyone? *holds up a bottle*
The music in this episode is amazing! Every arrangement fits the setting and mood of each scene perfectly. Kudos to the music dept!
Right? Lots of influence from "Rhapsody in Blue" (and probably others), but never outright plagiarism while the show's main theme lives in every scene.
Anne Dudley - very safe pair of hands
Every episode I watch, I smile at the end,,they are so clever. They are just so ridicules but so funny..I do love British shows😊👏
I've seen about four or five of these after thoroughly enjoying the books and I still can't get used to "Dr. House" playing Bertie.
And the reason I could never watch House is because it couldn't possibly be Bertie playing that narcissistic grouch.
He will always be the stupid young prince George from Blackadder to me.
Even as Dr House he was still George.
Woof. Woof.
Poor old Bertie. Always getting into trouble and it's never his fault.
I think this is the definitive adaptation of the Jeeves and Wooster stories! This version got me into reading the books...you think the series is pretty funny...then you pick up the books...and they are even funnier :D I never know why some people think Jeeves should be much older than Berties though...he only needs to be a few years older I feel, as is portrayed here.
BelatedCommiseration In reality Fry is older (60) than Laurie (58). ;)
@@gary4508 No Jeeves is described as a young man by wodehouse
@@gary4508 on Wikipedia it says that Jeeves is supposed to be 35-ish (according to Wodehouse's letter where he mentions it), and Bertie - 24 to 29, depending on the story
I felt the exact same thing! I didn't think books could possibly be any funnier, and yet they are. 😂 The writing style is amazing. Still, these lads should win many awards for just their facial expressions. XD
These two (Fry and Laurie)were meant to play Jeeves and Wooster.
+Nathan Parsons Fry was really too young to play Jeeves as written, but that doesn't matter at all. He plays the role so perfectly that he just *is* Jeeves, and I can't picture Jeeves as anyone else when reading the books now. (In other words, I agree with you completely.)
I remember reading somewhere that when Fry was cast, people said he was too young to play Jeeves, but I agree - I couldn't imagine anybody else as Jeeves - Fry was MADE for this role!!
If only we could get them to play Squire Trelawney and Dr. Livesey. That would be perfection.
@@raebee4321 on Wikipedia there's a quote from a letter by Wodehouse himself, where he mentioned that Jeeves is supposed to be about 35-ish. So it's more like Laurie is a bit too old for Bertie (24-29 in the stories). But for me they are perfect anyways:) I guess it like with Sherlock Holmes: everyone assumes him to be middle aged, while in the first novel he was actually just 25, if I remember correctly.
@@Tatiana_Palii I would love to see Fry as Holmes and and Laurie as Watson in a serious version of the Doyle Canon.
Dear God, what have we lost with the passing of art deco in ships!
In ships and everywhere else.

I'm afraid it's just a complete and utter loss of style on more or less all front.
On a more technical note, you wouldn't happen to know what ship was used in the making of this episode? Was it the Queen Mary?
More than likely, but quite possibly a set.
the fact that jeeves handles all of bertie's "repulsive" clothing as if it were a sick animal is just great
Jeeves looked so hurt about the hat, LOL. Love this show!
😂 re-watched the series a few times and never gets old.
Jeeves & Wooster are the absolute best shows ever!
Stephen Fry has amazing pure acting ability
Yeahs, Madam :)
indeed sir
He does and so does Hugh Laurie. Both are absolute masters of the craft.
@@dudesayingthings I'm amazed at Hugh Laurie's athleticism in this one too... that wasn't CGI when he's trying to break into that house! Amazing and so funny!!
@@jeanettecook1088 he was apparently a highly accomplished rower in uni. So yeah, he's just a perfect specimen of humanity. Love him ❣️
This is what has been missing in my life. I need my own personal Jeeves.
" A violin case would complete the effect..." LOL
I actually like the hat, but I'm not sure I'd ever feel secure enough to go against Jeeves' recommendations.
+8Rincewind I actually liked the hat as well and thought it looked nice on Bertie. It looked absolutely perfect on the elevator attendant though.
+8Rincewind
it's because it's white with a black band.
if it was black or dark brown/grey with a black/dark band Jeeves would probably be grudgingly accepting of Bertie wearing it.
after all, white is a little too pimpish or 'man from del monte'. it's not becoming of a 'gentleman of means'... it attracts the wrong kind of people and in a world where you are 'marked' by the company you keep [is it truly THAT much different today?], the last thing Jeeves would want for Bertie is the kind of society that are considered 'uncouth' [ie, gangsters].
Narred Darr Thanks, that sounds like a great explanation.
I'm an American and I loved the hat! But who'd want to suffer that superior, withering glare??
Jeeves was absolutely right. As always.
Jeeves's distaste for that hat is slaying me!
Going down! Hottest lift attendant, ever. 🚀🚀
Loved the “violin case” accessory comment by Jeeves.
"The poor people do travel in such a style, I believe, sir."
yep I think your being picky. I can overlook all of that and am just delighted by the talent of Fry and Laurie and charmed by the storytelling of PG Wodehouse. Its a little bit of magic....
Agreed. Something about it is so comforting.
love English comedy from the old days
The old days 😂😂😂 it's the 1990s not the 30s
@@davidmellish3295 Sorry to break it to you, but the original books (which they get a lot of the jokes and almost all of the plots from) were indeed written starting in 1919 by P. G. Wodehouse. So, yes, the old days. 😉😄
@adventureswithaurora I hate to break it to you but we're not watching someone read us the original book from 1919,we're watching an adaptation made in the 90s. These often mix a few different short stories into one episode and they also add and change stuff.
They're not exact reenactment of the books.
This is a TV programme made in the 90s
@@davidmellish3295 I'm aware of that. 🙂 By “English comedy,” I thought they were referring to the brainchild of P. G. Wodehouse, not the adaptation. My apologies if they were indeed referring to the show, because of course the ‘90s are very recent.
"This is my only chance to assemble a disreputable past!"
"And I'm going to take it!"
The expressions on Bertie's face when Wooster explains to Lady ... about her son's reason for going to prison etc. It's the acting which makes these show so great.
"He's also teetotaler" ... "Good lord" 😁😁😁
RIP Ronan Vibert (Wilmot)
1964-2022 Dec 22
Thank you so much for this! Jeeves and Wooster is the best.
Bertie's expression when Wilmot gets off his face...priceless. LOL. I was dying of laughter. :) Thanks for the upload. x
I love that 2 weeks is enough to visit all of the US. 7 states/2 days... Of course, PLENTY of time!
"Your check, Mr. Glossop. And if you came to me on bended knees, and begged me to accept another one, I would spurn you, you got that? SPURN YOU!"
The word 'lush' comes to mind; the detail is amazing
LOL Jeeves gets rid of his hat even before permission is granted. Such a boss.
That happens several times in the stories.
Spritz Polecat! 😅😂 Hilarious. Stutz Bearcat with a sense of humor about itself.
I love the clothing styles of this era!
I love Bertie's reaction to his load 'assembling a disreputable past'. Like a grown up who likes drinks and dancing and chatting with beautiful woman, but now he's stuck with a spring breaker.
I laughed so hard when Bertie scrambled out from under the table at 42:34! He went so fast!
I love the last scene. Those boys are always up to something.
The animator(s) should have screen credit for the fine opening sequence.
Love the Art Deco details!
Something I just noticed. When Bertie is in the metropolis, he wears a blossom in his lapel and his watch chained to his waistcoat. In the countryside, he wears his watch on a fob out of his lapel buttonhole into his front jacket pocket.
That style was invented by the post-war generation. Waistcoats were disappearing, and you needed to put the watch and its waistcoat strap somewhere.
Later, wrist watches came in, and the old, large turnip/fob watches disappeared altogether.
@@HooDatDonDar Disappeared? I do enjoy pulling out mine in an elevator when there are young persons present, their expression when I wind it up is surpassed when I do the obligatory swing into my waistcoat pocket
...am reminded of Monty Python's:
.."UPPER-CLASS 'TWIT OF THE YEAR' GAMES"
19:03
I thought Bingo Little was smitten - untill I saw Tuppy! Fell for that girl like a ton of coal dumped down the cellar stairs.
Bingo could have taken his correspondence course.
I love how there's a dog in every episode.
Jeeves stories would be undermined, neutered really, but a few short doses of 21st Century manners. "This is my son, he'll be in your care throughout the journey."
"Like fuck he will."
Not everyone in 21st century is like that, you know. Some people have manners
Just loved Bertie's attempt to break into the Stoker pile - Talk about the willing suspension of disbelief!
Reminds me of Peter Sellers in "The Pink Panther."
Those boys are always up to something. Tut tut, thank Heaven for Jeeves.
I love how the security guard yells “hey!”, then immediately starts firing a revolver at Bertie.
And only 2 shots instead of 12, typical british understatement.
"Shoot first, and ask questions later. Don't get many answers that way . . . " -- Benny Hill
And what a great shot he was too? Why didn't Tuffy tell Bertie about the security guard?
Thanks for this it’s my feel good comfort blanket, love it xx
It just makes me smile! :D
What could be better to watch in the time of the pandemic ? I'm loving it!

"put the fatted calf on Gas mark 6." ahahha
So it is Jeeves put the young lord into jail. Well done. I need a Jeeves.
Tuppy Glossop, Jeeves and Wooster's version of George Costanza.
Well noted. However, I'd rather have said, "George Costanza, Seinfeld's version of Tuppy Glossop."

Now *that* is an exchange rate
I keep getting confused between Bertie's friends: Chuffy, Biffy, Stiffy, Gussie, Tuppy, Boko, Bingo.. They all sound similar.
Dharini S -- I think that's the point, how absurd it all is. :)
My dad's family were WASP Anglophiles. Boarding schools and EVERYONE had nicknames. Mom thought it was all hilarious and refused to give my sister and I such names, to the consternation of all.
That ought be "my sister and me", Mr Frederickson. 'Freddo', as it were.
they make sense if you know English nicknames
Love their nicknames! All those silly-sounding names are certainly apropos to a bunch of silly men-boys. None of them seem to have a care in the world, no sense of responsibility, no sense of maturity, and no common sense. No wonder Bertie fits in so well with them! LOL
The poor people travel in that style😂😂😂😂
How on earth could they have afforded those location shots? And where did they find the authentic footage of 1920s New York? As for the sets, the interiors, the clothes, the hairstyles - this is practically a big-budget Hollywood production. Amazing. I wonder what it cost for this single episode?
I wholly agree. The production of this series surely cost a fortune. Worth every penny, though.
It's actually a reality show filmed at the time.
@@MajorT0m What reality show would that be? And which parts of the New York episode(s) are you referring to?
@@peterfreeman6677 I believe MajorT0m was making a joke. 😂
That elevator attendant can get all of it
Thanks very much for uploading the series...
This is such a cute episode...I love Lord Whatsits, he's so deliciously silly, and Jeeves' solutions so droll. Such fun!
Picturing Wooster as Dr. House is mind-boggling!
Watching these helps me get through 2020
