About this listen
The second instalment of this wonderful collection of short stories sees Bertie Wooster in the proverbial soup as usual and Jeeves invariably shimmering to the rescue. Love, comic reunions and errant Uncles are all on the agenda, plus bucket loads of laughter. Where would Wooster be without his infinitely brainy valet? Where would audio listeners be without Wodehouse's sparkling comic invention?

Story
We find ourselves in the austerity of the 1950s, when England's aristocracy was feeling the pinch. Bertie Wooster has gone to a residential self-help school to learn how to darn his socks. Until he re-emerges, Jeeves has signed up with Bill Rowcester (pronounced Roaster), an earl who is failing to make ends meet in trade, and yearning to sell his stately home, which has charm and damp in equal measure. In his new environment Jeeves is required to exert his mammoth brain to what would be breaking point for any normal intellect.

Most of the big money belongs to Torquil Paterson Frisby, the dyspeptic American millionaire--but that doesn't stop him wanting more out of it. His niece, the beautiful Ann Moon, is engaged to "Biscuit", Lord Biskerton, who doesn't have very much of the stuff and so he has to escape to Valley Fields to hide from his creditors. Meanwhile, his old school friend Berry Conway, who is working for Frisby, himself falls for Ann--just as Biscuit falls for her friend Kitchie Valentine. Life in the world of Wodehouse can sometimes become a little complicated.

From the chilling opening confrontation with an escaped convict to the grand but eerily disheveled estate of bitter old Miss Havisham, all is not what it seems in Dickens’ dark tale of false illusions and thwarted desire.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Perfect narrator
Martin Jarvis is a perfect narrator for Jeeves stories. So how's about Volume 1? If we could get volume 1 of Very Good Jeeves and volume 1 of The Inimitable Jeeves (which also seems to be missing), we'd have pretty much a complete set of Jeeves short stories from a single outstanding narrator. (A note to Wodehouse fans who didn't know this yet, though it's unlikely anyone would be one and not already know the other: if you combine Jarvis's My Man Jeeves and Jarvis's Carry On, Jeeves, you'll have the full set of tales from the print version of Carry On, Jeeves, though not in their original order.)

Incredibly good narration!
There must be Oscars for audiobook readers. If so, Martin Jarvis deserves a win. Brilliant!!!

Jarvis stands alone
I attempted to watch a snippet or two of the old motion picture with Stephen Fry. Though said Mr Fry would undoubtedly be an excellent selection for just such a role, he should first receive the full benefit of Mr Jarvis' correspondence course.

Very good, indeed.
I love this whole series. Have read the books, watched the tv version, and then this! Martin Jarvis is pretty much the voice I hear nowadays even when I am reading a P G Wodehouse book.
