P. G. Wodehouse Interview
Dec. 13th, 2016 03:02 pmwotwotleigh.livejournal.comWhat ho again! I just saw this posted over on Facebook, and had to share it here:
https://youtu.be/Re9QXetFipM
This is an interview between P. G. Wodehouse and Alistair Cooke from the 1960s. Wodehouse talks about the inspiration for Bertie Wooster, among other things.
He mentions an Anthony Mildmay as being the "Bertie Wooster type," so naturally I had to look him up. He was talking about this guy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Bingham_Mildmay,_2nd_Baron_Mildmay_of_Flete
He's too young to have directly inspired the creation of Bertie, but it's interesting to think this might be what Wodehouse had in mind as he was writing some of the Jeeves and Bertie stories at the height of his career:
And I was also fascinated to hear Wodehouse directly address the age difference between Jeeves and Bertie: apparently he envisioned them about 20 years apart, with Bertie in his 20s and Jeeves in his 40s.

jeeves & wooster in perfect nonsense
Aug. 28th, 2016 04:40 pmwemblee.livejournal.comHi, all! Man, I haven't posted here in a while. But I figured this would be one of the few places to ask: did anyone, by any chance, catch the Jeeves and Wooster in: Perfect Nonsense play when it was in the West End? I've seen professional reviews of it, but I'm curious to see what fans thought. I wish I could've gone.
Also, if anyone has or knows where one could obtain a *cough*bootleg*cough* of any of those performances, please let me know, either here or via PM. I doubt a recording was ever made, but seeing either Stephen Mangan or Robert Webb as Bertie would be a-mahhhhzing.
And just so I'm not asking for things without giving back: I've posted these here before years ago, but the links are probably dead and we've probably had new members since then, so:

wotwotleigh.livejournal.comI imagine a lot of you probably know about this already, but a few years ago a Wodehouse scholar named Norman Murphy came out with the theory that Bertie Wooster was modeled on an actor/singer/producer/playwright/songwriter/all-around-talented guy named George Grossmith Jr. Grossmith played a lot of "dudes" and "mashers" on the musical comedy stage in the 1910s, and this was certainly the kind of character that Bertie was based on in his earliest form.
( I muuuurdered her one morning, it was very kindly meant . . . )
I happened upon Grossmith while I was looking around for other possible Bertie Wooster inspirations. It seems that the name Bertie was already associated with dapper, upper-class gents well before Bertie Wooster was born, and I'm sure that Wodehouse was influenced, directly or otherwise, by earlier uses of the name.
( I'm Burlington Bertie, I rise at 10:30 . . . )

Audio Archive tool
May. 11th, 2011 09:46 pmbnmc2005.livejournal.comJust thought I'd pass this along.
Earlier today the U.S. Library of Congress unveiled a project called "the National Jukebox." Now you can hear some of the rare audio recordings at the Library online.
I know this is located in the U.S. but it might be a good research tool for anyone looking to write about Bertie and Jeeves whooping it up at some of the clubs in NYC or something. You can search by date, name, genre etc.

Jun. 10th, 2010 02:09 ampantropia.livejournal.comAges ago, I was asked to do a podfic of 'Jeeves and the Dirty Pictures'. I tried, but my equipment wasn't up to the job. I've now got a laptop that doesn't make a noise like a jet taking off, a better mic, and I had the house to myself for the day. So I podficced 'Jeeves and the Niece Who Isn't' instead. No, I have no idea why I did that either.
Anyway, I've had a listen through, and I don't think it's come out too badly. I can think of worst things to spend half an hour listening to, anyway.

Jun. 8th, 2010 11:57 pmpantropia.livejournal.comHello. The body is out of work again, and so tech-brain has gone to sleep and let fic-brain out for a play. 18 pages and a lot of interruptions later, I've ground to a halt. Tomorrow I have the house to myself and as I've now got a better quality mic, I was thinking of doing that podfic I was asked to do ages ago rather than trying to continue this new thing just yet. Or, you know, if nobody cares any more, apply for jobs and do some college work.
I would therefore like to hear from anyone who'd be prepared to waste 18 word-doc pages-worth of their life reading it and tell me what to change. Or indeed, tell me how long they were reading it before they lost the will to live.
My usual MO is to just sit down and write until the thing is finished, occasionally remembering to sleep and eat and such, but, partially due to where I've left it (if it's considered worth continuing) I was thinking it might be interesting to try something different for this one - to set up a post on my journal where people can post anonymously what they think should happen next, vote for each others ideas, etc. Most popular one is what I then write. Worth a go?

Hello everyone!
Apr. 19th, 2010 08:41 pmalmostlifesized.livejournal.comWhen preparing for my 24-hour long bus journey to London (hurrah for ash clouds!) I looked for Jeeves and Wooster audiobooks on 7digital and found "The World of Jeeves and Wooster" (the tv-series OST). It can be found here. I'm not paid by 7digital to promote this, just thought the people here might be interested as I downloaded my version illegally and my own personal Jeeves disapproves.
Also, are there any Jeeves and Wooster or Wodehouse type events happening in London this spring/summer?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpROtXGgDi4
Second, I adapted Gussie's prize presenting speech at Market Snodsberry Grammar School (Right Ho, Jeeves) into a dramatic monologue, as I just watched the adaption in the television program and I was not impressed with the way the writers cut it nor how the actor delivered it.
http://amphitritie.livejournal.com/660.html
Third, anyone know where I can attain the MP3 to Good Evening Vienna, or something to that affect.
Fourth, I promise to bring you all fanart soon, but after a dreary day I came home, expecting to make progress on my pieces, but could not find the pencil sharpener. Rummy.
Fifth, I rewatched Season 1 today and realized again how much I adore Tuppy. I just wanna give him a hug! Steak and kidney pie!

A joyous message concering music
Oct. 18th, 2009 09:16 pmniektete.livejournal.comLadies! Gentlemen! The World of Jeeves and Wooster is once more available to the public!
I did a random search for Hugh Laurie on iTunes, and finally, the good old songs are available again! The Dover Street Jazzomaniacs and Bertie Wooster, previously only available by bootlegging (or, asking a kindly person on indeedsir to send the copied files), are now up for downloading at standard iTunes rates ^^ Isn't it marvellous?
The downside, though, is that certain songs are missing. Or rather, the parts which are direct offcuts from the series are. Such as Bertie and Gussie practicing to play for Gertrude.

Jeeves & Wooster Tunage & An FYI Moment
May. 20th, 2009 08:53 pmrandom-nexus.livejournal.comI've been sharing some of the Jooster-flavored goodness of mine, and that I've had shared with me by others in this community, and it's come around like the best kind of "pay it forward" process and I've gotten more goodies. From someone who's not even a Jeeves & Wooster addict! *grin* I know, amazing.
He sent me some music and this comment about it:
"My favourite bits of your Jeeves and Wooster mix have been making the rounds, and finding echo. So far I've received the theme of the series, and several versions of "Topsy" a jazz standard which was notionally supposed to be the show's theme, but allegedly ran into copyright trouble and was eventually abandoned, though not before some "Sounds a hell of a lot like..." circumspections were tried.
Seems to me there's still a good deal of Topsy in the theme itself."
So, see below what he sent, and what I'm sharing with you, lovely and talented Jeeves & Wooster Fans.
Jeeves & Wooster Theme
This is supposed to be two versions of the same piece:
Topsy #1 - Count Basie
Topsy #2 - Count Basie
Fairly obvious, I guess.
Topsy - Benny Goodman
Now, I listened to the two Count Basie versions when I got them and I'm reasonably sure they were different, but I was quite sleepy at the time and may have had sleep dep dain bramage, so let me know if they're identical and I'll snip one out.
Enjoy, friends & neighbors.
