Jeeves &Wooster S01 E01 Part 1/5

[gbraae]

This was, is and forever will be MY Hugh!!!

[cornstar101]

The difference between a Valet and a Butler is, a butler is the head of all the waitstaff in a household and a valet is personal waiter on just a particular person that goes around with them and takes care of their personal services such as maintaining and laying out his clothes, running baths for them and even sometimes shaved them.

[petermarceltoft]

@cornstar101

A gentleman's gentleman

[jangonauta]

thats so gross... dogs at the table



[nyctreeman]

"you want someone strong, self reliant, and sensible..."

Bertie - "no I don't"

LOL!!

[sarajhq]

"I say!"

cracks me up every time

[mrpenguinpwnerful]

"your engaged"

"thank you sir"

theres more than a little bromance going on here

[cornstar101]

@mrpenguinpwnerful that's what one said to a butler in those days when you hired them

[lune909]

Wonderful film!!

[ilexgp64]

Whats the number of that agency?

[kacplaymyst]

Looks like a moose to me

[misenta]

turn on audio captures... fantastic!

[misenta]

for the last time... jeeves is not a butler!

[xelphitiansky]

@misenta Thank youuuu! He is a valet, not a butler!

[MrCambridge2010]

pure class..lol

[pertheship]

i could do with a butler like jeeves....

[blaqdiemenz]

ha i used to watch this as a kid on masterpiece theater

[HydraDaLittle]

Not sure if that's just me but video skips ahead at 0:47 from court straight to wooster's house

[TheRetro60s]

It´s amazing to think that as a young man Hugh Laurie played the naïve, foolish, good-natured, lovable Wooster and in later life the part of the cynical, calculating, manipulating, unlovable House, and both to such great effect and with entirely different accents. What a wonderful actor he is.

Thank you for taking the trouble to upload these Wodehouse gems. I love them all.

[derek1969able]

what kind of car does bertie drive?

[galenatt]

Whatoo! Sorry, just felt like saying it.

[Lynn00X]

Jeeves really is the Marry Poppins of valets AKA "The gentleman's gentlemen" Steven Fry I freaking love you!!! LOL

[rileyandstella]

You all should try also the Wodehouse Playhouse various stories with Pauline Collins featuring none other than PG Wodehouse himself doing the introductions

[rileyandstella]

Happy Birthday Stephen Fry 

[kojimapie]

1:19 - 1:22nice editing! haha

[kamakaze2007]

so it is Val-et not valeeeeay

[seletan1]

@kamakaze2007 I also lived with this illusion for such a long time :D

[royalbuff123]

Hahaha look at that Westie eating off the table!

[ayngemac]

"Not the nephew crusher?"

LOL

[Bookq36]

God, his facial expressions before he drinks the 'preparation'. Priceless

[rileyandstella]

Happy Birthday Hugh Laurie turns 52 today!

[PrettyLittlePicture7]

I like this. I like the musical as well.

[weirdlightsaber44]

2:21 I used that face in my IT project. Irony is also that I LOVE Sherlock Holmes!

[rileyandstella]

@CaptMARNEY Yes that and appearing in rooms as Wodehouse describes some kind of magic reappearing technique unless he previous the one who pinched his socks left it. Just always found it odd so matter of fact the ingredients for this awful drink just there like that :)

[elendil77]

I might be wrong, but the court scene seems to be trimmed! i distinctly remember that Basset fined him onscreen. It was five pounds, I think.

[CaptMARNEY]

@elendil77 I noticed that too. Must've trimmed it for time.

[key2kingdom]

@elendil77 yes, the cut in the scene is very clear. What a shame.

Easy and cheap to buy on DVD, I've seen it as cheap as £17 for all for seasons - worth every penny.

And no, I'm not Hugh Laurie!

[rileyandstella]

I am surprised Jeeves managed to find all the ingredients in Bertie's kitchen as I don't remember Jeeves bringing in a bag

[CaptMARNEY]

@rileyandstella Jeeves must be magic.

[rileyandstella]

Happy Victoria Day Everyone having a full English and tea and thought I would do a J&W Marathon 

[schnorschrajaxx]

p.g woodhouse was a genius!

I would strongly recommend his books!

Hugh laurie and steven fry were soooo suitable for this series! the casting people should have gotten obe's !

Although i must say i didn't warm to the series made in america!

[weirdlightsaber44]

I bet that Hangover cure contain Vicodin.

[wimpylassiter2336]

@weirdlightsaber44 i thinks its basically a bloody mary to be honest. the recipe is in the books

[weirdlightsaber44]

In which episode does Jeeves and someone carry a seemingly unconscious Bertie down some stairs?

[rileyandstella]

@weirdlightsaber44 wasn't that Lord Pershore? the cane nibbling Lord from the counties. Or it could be that one Jeeves in the Country as well I don't remember any others. I just wish we had the episode where Jeeves and Bertie are dressed up as maid and lady as I don't remember if it was here or with LaurieFan where I saw it.

[rileyandstella]

@rileyandstella I did find the right episode and in season 4 the one with Lady Travers pearls where you will find the maid and very well dressed Jeeves it was too funny that one.

[xXxTITCHYBABYxXx]

LOVE the start of this show! Perfect! Fry and Laurie are amazing. :)

[MsSarjen]

New dimension to a hangover.

[allamericandiner]

everytime i look at this, i crave for a jeeves.

[Piccadillyo]

you gotta wonder how bertie survived before jeeves.

[russianpostman]

hello, can anyone please inform me of the location for the seaside bits of series 2 episode 3? tickertytonk

[antoinettesimone]

Thank you ever so much for posting these!

[eiredance92]

These are so classic!!! I <3 them OH SO MUCH!!!

[rockingreddevil]

I am reading Carry on Jeeves... and found this.... :)

thanks for uploading these episodes...

[cello19661]

I like how they call Aunt Agatha the nephew crusher. It's so appropriate.

[kill2men]

i'm looking for a script of this episode, but i cant find one wherever i look, anyone willing to help?

[timdaughte]

@kill2men The original short story is the first story in "Carry On, Jeeves." It follows it pretty closely. It is also titled "Jeeves Takes Charge."

[OisinIE]

I say! The dog appears to be called Macintosh! :-)

[Toxinhead]

Si funny when he shoves the alrm in his drawer! lawl!

[MegaDelilah21]

That hangover cure looks like it would kill you...

Cheers for putting these up!

[wondakaiba93]

the door buzz bit is just brilliant!

[NotTheRealKatyB]

the two dislikes were obviously accidents. they simply must be.

[ahenmaxtae]

i need jeeves to sort out my life too... sigh

[missmay2013]

"Not the nephew crusher!" BAHAHAHA

[WiliamKali]

WHO DARES TO DISLIKE JEEVES AND WOOSTER!!

[Jitpring]

@WiliamKali Philistines.

[GoodW0lf]

He's like the male Mary Poppins for adults.

[lillyshak]

I LOVE THIS THANK YOU STEPHEN AND HUGH FOR ADAPTING THE BOOKS EVEN THOUGH I KNOW YOU DIDN'T DIRECT IT IT IS VERY WELL ACTED XXX

[tybites4]

had to laugh at the little box that came up and said "aww he proposed"

[doctorx777]

Could have used Jeeves' recipe after New Year's...

[KevinByrne2]

5:08 -- I think that the first bars of music that are played during the introduction to each episode are just an inverted form of "Forty-seven Ginger-headed Sailors," which you can hear Bertie muttering at 5:08 in this episode.

[MissTwiggy28]

What ever's wrong with Bertie at the beggining,??

[Flyingoutofadream]

@MissTwiggy28 Its called a hangover kid.

[GiniBaggins]

@Flyingoutofadream lol :P

[alexis13thirteen]

My parent would watch this when I was a kid and I didn't get the attraction. Now I love it!

[leigy]

Ugh! I have been trying to find the episode where the old lady trys to whisper to Bertie to knock some man out, but Bertie doesn't understand, and so the little old lady has to smash a vase on the man's head? I have watched soooo many episodes and can't find it!

PLEASE HELP!

[wolfxbloed]

@leigy Season 3, Episode 6, "Comrade Bingo."

[leigy]

@wolfxbloed I thought it was that one, but I watched it and it wasn't. That's why I am so confused.

[wolfxbloed]

@leigy Hmmmm... Try "Arrested in a Night Club." That might be it.

[galenatt]

@wolfxbloed I would say somewhere in episode 4 and with the assurance man of the necklace. Can't remember exactly whitch one I'm afraid. Somewhere around three I think.

[halfirishrover]

@leigy Just watched that one again last night. It's where Aunt Dahlia tried to get Bertie to knock out the jewelry appraiser before he looked at her pearls. Look at Jeeves &Wooster S04E04 Part 5/5 beginning around 2:54.  wolfxbloed posted it - it's "Arrested in a Night Club."

[ShaylahShmoo]

@leigy ` Think it's series 4, episode 4 or 5

[Endrawnia]

@leigy its called The Delayed Arrival. i just barely rented that one from a library lucky enough

[Jitpring]

@leigy It's Season 4, Episode 4: "The Delayed Arrival"

[theman9126]

@leigy its from season 4 i watched it yesterday....its where aunt dahlia is trying to get her pearl necklace back from the pawn shop before the inspector sees it

[Doodle1Bean]

@leigy The 'old lady' is Bertie's Aunt Dahlia. She wanted Bertie to knock out a pearl appraiser Uncle Tom had called in to value her pearls... which were fake as she had pawned them to finance M'Lady's Boudoir (her magazine). And leigy got it right; the episode was "Arrested in a Night Club".

[Jjjkar]

@leigy Here: S04 ep04 part 5/5. Youtube id 'MnV1O2tL7DI&feature=related' (substitute all characters in any YT address after 'watch?v=")

[kacplaymyst]

@leigy Yes you'll find it in Jeeves &Wooster S04E04 Part 5/5 3min, into the episode enjoy its funny ;)

[becalmbekind]

@leigy It's season 4, episode 4 =)

[becalmbekind]

@becalmbekind (the fifth part)

[skydancinghobbit]

the world needs more Jeeves lol he rocks!

[lmayliffe]

thank you very much.

[Frequency95]

@wolfxbloed Thank you!!! Thanks for putting these up here btw they are great!

[sexymckittington]

@fritspas no I thought your comment was rather funny.

Is this really the first episode? I feel like I'm missing out on alot O_o

[wolfxbloed]

@sexymckittington You're not missing anything major. The series does sort of throw you in head-first, but you get the hang of it. If you have to go back and re-watch twice, that's also normal. Or you can pop over to your library and get the books, but they start off in more or less the same spot. Feel free to ask questions, though.

[Frequency95]

Which episode is the one where Jeeves leaves because of Bertie's trumpet playing??

[wolfxbloed]

@Frequency95 "Jeeves in the Country"

[tyrelroo]

@Frequency95 None of them. But there is an episode where he molests a trombone...

Joking aside, yeah, Jeeves in the Country. It's actually a banjole in the book.

[stanton223]

@Frequency95 Trombone.

[o0SouthparkGirl0o]

I know people who could use that anti-hangover medicine... and people who could use a Jeeves <3

[dead4fun]

That's the club?? Shove the Moose in and lock the door ;)

[AaronIzzard]

"Oh no not the nephew crusher!" LOL

I love Stephen and Hugh thay are brilliant pair.

[pryan37bb]

Jeeves is the ultimate wingman.

[Nattyduck]

The beginning of this episode was actually cut off. The judge also says something about those barbarians whose "highest ambition is to steal a hard-working police constable helmet...I find you guilty as charged Bertrum Wooster and have no alternative but to fine you with some of five pounds...No buts ... Take him away....AWAY I said"

[OlesyaStarOfficial]

I say! This is good. 

[Smarigdine]

Prarie oysters. Yum. *Shudders*

[qwertyastrid]

Thanks! The expressions on Bertram and the butler's face as Agatha breaks the news-- Wooster in utter shock--always makes me laugh.

[rileyandstella]

For all her protestations about Jeeves being a bad influence on Bertie I think it were Aunt Agatha who hired Jeeves otherwise who else would look after him.

[Gheorgyi]

3:20 Since J. got in (2:36), he's already straightened up the mess in the whole apt!!! Gheorghij

[a35362]

Hugh Laurie does some tremendous "face acting" in this clip. I say!

[kileXemoXboy]

That comment at 4:43 had me laughing so hard I missed the next forty-five seconds. Nice!

[UnfoldingWings]

"I say!" :)

[89Wilde]

Hugh Laurie is exceptionally like Stan Laurel in the opening scenes!

[ecute13]

@89Wilde I agree, he looks very similar to Stan Laurel. Also his character is portrayed as a benevolent fool.

[SashaTheBrit]

i've read almost all of these books, and i just discovered they made this into a series. i'm tickled pink :D

[rabbitsrock]

hahaha 'aww he proposed'

lmao funny :p

[fritspas]

A secret recipe.... I bet it's Vicodin.

[Gheorgyi]

@fritspas I have no idea what Vicodin is; however, from the book: "tomato juice for the bulk, Worcester sauce for the colour, raw egg for the nutrition, cognac for rinvigorating and a red pepper for the zing ...". Glorious. Some of the best books I read in my (distant) youth. Gheorghij

[fritspas]

@Gheorgyi

nice, but i just can't believe i ever posted that lame comment :P i dissapoint me!

[324wilson]

I am such a big fan of Agatha Christie that I refused to read any other mysteries (with the exception of Sherlock Holmes, of course.), but after watching this... I got addicted to PG Wodehouse's mysteries also!

Thank you so much for posting them!

[SiriuslyLoony7]

I say...

[tiemedown]

" you want someone strong, self reliant and sensible" ...um he already has someone like that Agatha

[delphispolaris]

"But I don't want to be molded, I'm not a jelly." "...that is a matter of opinion..." LOL, love it.

[olimakiella]

Seriously, what was in that drink besides egg yolks? I could use some.

[johnnythunders78]

@olimakiella Having read all the Wodehouse books I can help you with your queary.

It's a little preparation of Jeeves' invention consisting of Worcester sauce for the colour, raw egg for the nutrition and a red pepper for the bite. Enjoy ;)

[maybetheonlyamazon]

It wasn't a proposal, as a statement of fact.

[wolfxbloed]

@maybetheonlyamazon Oh, it's a joke. Take it or ignore it.

[KevinByrne2]

5:10 -- Bertie is muttering "47 Ginger-headed Sailors," a song from the 1927 Broadway musical "Hit the Deck".

[GDATERRY]

"Bertie?"

"Aunt Agatha?"

"It is young men like you who make a person with the future of the race at heart despair"

"Uhm. Right."

[horngatekeeper]

that is very clearly a moose.

[RDiMatteo13]

Jeeves & Wooster is awesome!!

[robinwcollins]

Actually, it is a moose at 5:22, not an elk.

[pipeorganloverNJP]

Hugue Laurie is SO Bertie, and Stephen Fry is SO Jeeves.

[AdrienneTroise]

I just say an episode of J&W on tv in Ireland that I never saw before. It had to do with the members of the Drones Club dressing as minstrels and Bertie singing Lady of Spain and it featured the Stokers and Chuffy. Could anyone tell me the title of that one? Thanks!

[KevinByrne2]

@AdrienneTroise -- The title of the episode was: The Mysterious Stranger (or, Kidnapped) 

[rileyandstella]

@AdrienneTroise Season 2

[AdrienneTroise]

I just saw an episode of J&W that I never saw before. It had to do with the members of the Drone Club dressing like minstels and playing "The Lady of Spain" and featured the Stokers and Chuffy. Can anyone tell me the name of that episode? Thanks!

[rileyandstella]

@AdrienneTroise I think it is Jeeves in the Country the one where Jeeves and Wooster part company after a tiff

[Presca1]

I love this show, this is what introduced me first to Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry, they were perfect in the roles.  I always laugh at folks that are surprised at Hugh's British voice when all they've ever seen him in is House.

[LylesgoldMusic]

Meh. good effort i guess, but stilla n insult to some of the funniest books ever written

[kiranignatius]

I had pictured Aunt Agatha a little more thin and horsey-looking when reading the books. :(

[LylesgoldMusic]

oh my god: i started this book TODAY, nice coincidence.

but the book is really a lot funnier, and the strorylines quite different. for one, he isnt drunk in the book

[rileyandstella]

@LylesgoldMusic try the audiobooks then you get the surreal experience

[ithinkimcrazyhehehe]

god i love him!!!

[JoeyPencils]

The greatest buddy team ever in Literature!

[wolfxbloed]

*headdesk*

[blackcat355]

@wolfxbloed loool.

Thank you for re-uploading these episodes. I thought they were lost and gone forever when LaurieFan's page disappeared!

[blackcat355]

haha and I do so love your little comments ("aww, he proposed") XD

[casdebom2]

@mamatalu

You do not begin to grasp the extremity of my facepalm.

[mamatalu]

@casdebom2 Guys, I know that Hugh Laurie is grander than his character of House MD, but don't forget that if it were not for House, I would've never learnt about Hugh.

[casdebom2]

@mamatalu

Agreed, but this facepalm is just proposturous.

[thesanantoniokid]

Jeeves is either in league with the powers of darkness or is the secret son of Mary Poppins, I haven't decided which.

[phemyda94]

@thesanantoniokid lols personally I think he's secretly a genie and sleeps in a decanter at night

[I4gotmyMANTRA]

@thesanantoniokid Hahahaha! Both, I would guess.

[I4gotmyMANTRA]

1:15

Shoe removal failure.

[thesanantoniokid]

@I4gotmyMANTRA Well we've all been there. Strange how clothing becomes so complex after a few drinks.

[lestephenois1]

Watching this is only second to actually reading Wodehouse. Stephen Fry is absolutely unbelievable as Jeeves.

[kacplaymyst]

Jeeves is the super valet extraordinar

[sitithesecond]

actually it'd be really nice if they had dramatised each short story in full as a separate (possibly shorter) episode!

[sitithesecond]

@lecomptedelalune The "trial" actually does take place in the short story Without the Option in Carry On, Jeeves. Bertie is fined 5 pounds, but his friend Sippy is sent to prison for 30 days for pinching a policeman's helmet :-)

[rowiian]

I say!

[I4gotmyMANTRA]

@rowiian bahahahaha

[mgrace82]

Can anybody tell me the name and number of that agency? I also require a valet despite me being female.

to wolfxbloed: thanks for the uploads

[pristiniagov]

Isn't there a break at 0:50?

[mankybam]

Yes - I think 30 seconds are missing. He gets fined five pounds, can't speak, and the next scene is him staggering out of a taxi and into his building, still unable to speak, and then the scene after that is dropping the hat into the flower vase.

[pristiniagov]

Ah thank you :)
