Jeeves & Wooster S01E01 Part 3/5

[LeoAutodidact]

Not a clue between 'em!

It's a wonder the Empire lasted at all.

[manikraina]

@wolfxbloed: This episode deviates from the story, ``Jeeves takes charge.''

[BringBack500s]

Every young man should be made to watch from 1:56 and remember to the deepest recesses of their unconscious minds the statements next made by the good gentleman.

[weirdlightsaber44]

Is it just me or does 0:35 repeat itself?

[LeBubblesSan]

@weirdlightsaber44 Looks that way to me as well. Particularly amusing because it comes out as "Do you work, Mr. Wooster?" "Yes, and dashed interesting work it must be, too." Took me awhile the first time I saw it to realize it had looped around.

[rileyandstella]

It's Boko not Boca as in character George 'Boko' Fittleworth

[1983herodotus]

The actress playing Honoria Glossop is fantastic. Here is P. G. Wodehouse describing the laugh at 8:50:

"I was interrupted in my meditations by a noise like the Scotch express going under a bridge. It was Honoria Glossop laughing." ~ P. G. Wodehouse, The Inimitable Jeeves

[umjackd]

"How would you... ever support a wife, Mr. Wooster?"

"Well, depends on whose wife it was. Just a bit of gentle pressure when crossing a busy street generally fits the bill."

Oh Bertie...

[Asrael12]

This Boca sounds suspiciously like cousin Bunberry...

[maniac91421]

ROFLMAO @ 8:14 !!

[Violetdemoneyes]

seeing the girl, I would trying everything in my power to get out of marrying her too. and that was the very defination of subtile

[Acustom997]

One Of My Favourite Clips From Jeeves And Wooster !

[thandoo]

"He is not all that your father and I hoped for you but surely you could make something of him." I need to stop watching or I might die laughing.

[thandoo]

"He is an acquired taste-Boca. At least, that's what his mother says." Ha

[BlueStripedCurtains]

That push...sly Bertie, sly

[manypseudonyms]

I SO love Bertie when he thinks he's being sneaky!

[rileyandstella]

Love Berties descriptions of his friends 'Like a Parrot with a moult'

[EKS511]

4:06 He's just so cute!

[GoodW0lf]

"that's the posish."

[snapwrenches]

GO AND START YOUR LATIN.

[MissTwiggy28]

Aaw wow Stephen is so cute in this!

[alexis13thirteen]

A well known what specialist? I couldn't understand what her husband was.

[wolfxbloed]

@alexis13thirteen Nerve specialist. A neurologist, if you will.

[CSOGRADY]

@wolfxbloed -No, actually a "Nerve Specialist" is what a Psychiatrist was commonly called in the Edwardian Era (the erar PG Wodehouse grew up in & according to his biographers never really left). There is evidence in this (see the beginning of the 4/5 in your upload) and the following episodes and is more clearly spelled out in the books. Although at the time there was a great deal of overlap in many medical specialties so it easy to understand the confusion. Thanks for the upload.

[bobbbxxx]

@alexis13thirteen Nerve Specialist

[Mullahgrrl]

'A Dapted'?

[wolfxbloed]

@Mullahgrrl I'm human, aren't I?

Thanks for the spot check.

[Mullahgrrl]

@wolfxbloed No prob.

[Nattyduck]

"How would you support your wife, Mr Wooster?" - "Well, it depends on whose wife it was...I'd say a gentle pressure beneath her left elbow when croosing a busy street.."

Thanks a lot for posting it on youtube!

[rileyandstella]

A shame they didn't show Boko Fittleworth as I remember in the books he was a screenwriter and if I remember right it were Steffy Byng who was involved and Sir Watkins Bassett didn't like him which was the real reason behind the treacle episode and Chester Clam.

[SirOneoneselfandone]

"broke stocks" lol

[wittyusername111]

Poor gay Honoria...

[jumpinjax2]

Is that the woman that also had the Princess Leia hair do in The Fifth Element? Dallas's "wife" for the mission?

[kileXemoXboy]

Why on earth would they think Oswald would need saving? I've jumped from bridges higher than that and I've been perfectly fine. It's not like he wouldn't have been able to swim.

Honestly, that was a rotten plan.

[UnfoldingWings]

"Hee hee hee -" *BAM* "OW!" "Go and start your Latin!"

[rileyandstella]

Oswald :' Hee Hee' then Bingo wallops him with the book 'Ow....' great comedy there a pity they didn't feature some of the other kids featured in the books

[mrShowaddywaddy]

I have a question......why is it so important for Bertie to work? he's loaded!

[ahmedeox]

Good Lord! I thought everybody knew Bocco. ROFL

[KevinByrne2]

0;39 -- Bertie's prospective mother-in-law, Lady Glossop, has the ugliest hairdo in recorded history.

[johnnythunders78]

@KevinByrne2 I'm sure one would change his mind seeing said hairdo on a prettier bird's head. Check out Charlize Theron when she accepted the Oscar for 'Monster' and you'll see what I mean ;)

[3eau2aniel]

This iz some wicked ass shit. ^_^

[avril2]

Honoria? Not that frightful hearty girl with a laugh like a squadron of cavalry crossing a tin bridge?

[ithinkimcrazyhehehe]

lol...i love this show!!! xD

[bookstar77]

Honoria: "Let me talk to someone with a brain!"

ROFL! Great laugh-inducing line!

[scribeirao]

there's something sinister in hugh's smile at 4:54... or is it just me?

[peregrinusnoctis]

Kicking in that mysterious, fatally seductive Wooster charm: 4:07-4:09.

[sierracanon]

@skydancinghobbit. "Sooo Bertie... you have a sister. Aunt Agatha was wise to separate you."

[skydancinghobbit]

Honoria could be a great beauty if they just changed that horrid hair style lol reminds me forceably of star wars...which...I don't think Jeeves would approve lol

[peregrinusnoctis]

In one of the later series' episodes, Honoria is shown to greater (i.e., more feminine) effect, in an evening gown. The casting director did well; the female bright young things are an appropriate mixture of strong-profiled Gibson girls and slim-bodied flappers.

[manikraina]

04:00 : Honoria does not think much of Bertie at this point.

[rileyandstella]

LOL "Boko Fittleworth looks like a parrot with a molt!"

[wolfxbloed]

Though, a partriot of either college would have to point out here that while Hugh is indeed from Cambridge, Bertie Wooster is from Oxford. Serious rivals, them.

But yes indeed, he's very good, isn't he?

[Simpson654]

Wodehouse's Bertie's just like Bilbo. I suppose the "well-off aristocracy" isn't just an invention. Wodehouse takes the character into trouble with Jeeves sorting it out, but Tolkien takes the character into trouble with himself sorting it out. Bildungsroman style is sort of bad for sequels.

[blanith]

This reminds me of a comedy piece about the British royals "You're a plumber you say? What on Earth is that?"

[wolfxbloed]

You get a virtual high-five for referencing Eddie Izzard on my video. Thumbs up. :)

[leverbart]

@wolfxbloed haha I thought precisely the same thing!

[joenvernaillen]

@blanith Isn't that a line from Eddie Izzard :D

[SoylentGreeeen]

Honoria is lovely. They would really make a great couple. If it wasn't for Jeeves that is.

[PurushaDesa]

I can't believe he just did that. I can't BELIEVE she was impressed by it. What a bunch of thoroughly unlikeable bastards. This is great.

[sergiolopezOU]

I must say, Honoria is quite the looker. Take away the princess leia muffs, put some hose and heels, ad she is ready to dance the horizontal tango.

[entertherat]

I love the way Honoria just *flops* onto the couch.

[polomintsaj]

i love the reactions at the begining of this clip! between bertie and lady glossop xD

so funny

[monkeyboy4746]

"Well, it depends on who's wife it was."

[Mullahgrrl]

I love her surprice at 6:48.

[simplic10]

"Only if I get up early."

I love Wooster.

[Wonkapoo]

Oh my god, he's me. My "breakfast" is other people's lunch. If I get up early enough, that is.

[zeldaofarel]

I love British comedy. Esp. these old ones are very good. Another favourite is "You rang, Milord?"

[THEREALBODYSHOW]

How could you compare that load of old tat to the sublime Jeeves and Wooster??!

[zeldaofarel]

Do you really think this is never? Besides, that's a great show. I've seen every ep like a 100 times.

[manikraina]

depends on whose wife it was LOLLLLLLLLLL

[zeldaofarel]

I second that! LOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[noersang]

absolutely fine answer!
