Jeeves&Wooster reboot?

Hi guys!

I've just known that Sebastian Faulks' going to publish a new Jeeves&Wooster novel - "Jeeves and the Wedding Bells" on 4 November. He wrote that the new novel would "be faithful to the history and personality of Wodehouse's characters but by shining a different light on them will also show how robust, durable and lovable these creations are". Two opposite feelings fight in me. From the one side he may destroy our beautiful canon, from the other - engage new people to us.

What do you think about this?

He might better be forewarned...

If he will be good - his novel may be filmed! And we' ll see J&W on screen)

I'd love to see a new J&W on screen! And now Hugh & Stephen are old enough to play some of the threatening characters like Sir Roderick Glossop.
