Better still, read 'Right ho Jeeves' and 'the Code of the Woosters' back to back to get the full flavor.

Spode and his Blackshorts are a swipe at Oswald Mosley and his Blackshirts. This is the first series episode I've seen that brings politics and the events of the outside world (beyond Bertie's circle of tapioca-brained toffs) into the story. I've read one Jeeves book awhile ago and have seen only a handful of the Fry and Laurie series. Also, Vivian Pickles (Aunt Dahlia) played Harold's mother in the 1971 film, Harold and Maud. Her line, "Harold, that was your last date!" was very famous at that time.

Yes, that immediately came to my mind in the opening sequences.

It turned out to be the salvation of the Crown and UK that Edward VII abdicated and bolted to Wallis Simpson. If he had remained King, the UK would have fallen to Nazi Germany because he was too foolish to understand how evil Hitler was. Of course, we will always remember that dolt bratty Prince Harry who wore a Nazi uniform to his "Colonials and Natives Party" Prince Harry is now blaming William and Kate for "coercing and manipulating him" to wear that Nazi uniform....what a toad Harry is. He never has taken any responsibilty for any of his blunders and always blames somebody else.

Highclere Castle has been used as the set for so many movies and tv series episodes. The upkeep to keep that estate going is massive - the owners of Highlclere rent it out on a regular basis for private parties, wild game hunting shoots, and movie and tv film set. If it was not for that, Highclere would have been lost many decades ago. I think it was around the end of WW1 and especially after WW2 the big fall of the British Empire went poof and the only aristocratic families who could hold onto their estates realized they would have to hold tours, charge admission - rent out their estate to private parties, weekend wild game hunting shoots, film and tv set rentals....although many of those grand old manor homes have farmland that is not enough to keep a huge estate going because these are many hundreds of years old manor homes with huge repair bills.

I was surprised and pleased to see Martin Clunes listed in the credits as "Barmy." At 10:54, when Bertie has hidden from Spode and Sir Watkyn Bassett in the Drones Club dining room, a police officer follows Bertie into the dining room. Clunes shouts "bluebottle" and they all throw rolls at the police officer. Clunes is at the front right side of the dining room throwing rolls. According to IMDb, Clunes appears in four Jeeves and Wooster episodes: Season 2, episodes 1, 2, 3, and 5.

This is based on Code of the Woosters: The first time I read Code of the Woosters I thought it was very funny indeed. The 2nd time I read it I thought it was the funniest book I ever read. The 3rd time I read it I thought it was the funniest book ever written. The 4th time I read it I concluded that it was the funniest book it is possible for any human being to write. I stopped modifying my conclusions regarding this gem after subsequent readings of it.

10:50 seconds. GLORIOUS. A proper and natural reaction to your typical common or garden bluebottle.

Shows that, despite his place as an officer of the law, they consider him a cut below. Spode is even more extreme. He has Lord-of-the-manoritis and slaps Constable Oates on the back of the head, calling him a ‘witless oaf’.

I watched a rerun of Doc Martin earlier this evening from the final season (season 10, episode 1). Then I watched this episode of Jeeves and Wooster on KZbin. I was surprised and pleased to see Martin Clunes (30 years before season 10 of Doc Martin) listed in the credits as "Barmy." According to IMDb, it is Martin Clunes who shouts "Bluebottle," and they all throw rolls at the police officer. Clunes is at the front right side of the dining room throwing rolls. According to IMDb, Clunes appears in four Jeeves and Wooster episodes: Season 2, episodes 1, 2, 3, and 5.

"The trouble with you, Spode, is that just because you have succeeded in inducing a handful of half-wits to disfigure the London scene by going about in black shorts, you think you're someone. You hear them shouting 'Heil, Spode!' and you imagine it is the Voice of the People. That is where you make your bloomer. What the Voice of the People is saying is: 'Look at that frightful ass Spode swanking about in footer bags! Did you ever in your puff see such a perfect perisher?'" (from "The Code of the Woosters) Spode's character was based loosely on Sir Oswald Moseley, a British fascist in the 1930's...

When watching screen adaptations of books/stories, it's important to take as understood that books will almost always contain more detail than a feature length film or hour long TV show.
@PEHook Жыл бұрын
Actually it's the other way round. Film has to show all kinds of stuff that the reader is free to imagine or skip.
@olliefoxx7165 Жыл бұрын
@PEHook In some matters. Film is limited by time, budget, etc as to what they can show. For example in books we are often privy to a characters thoughts, memories, etc.. that aren't relayed to us in film. Character development is much better developed in books. Also, our imaginations can paint quite the vivid picture. Film often fails to meet our expectations.

Whilst not necessarily typed cast, Hugh Laurie played two characters whereby he played the 'Upper Class'/Nobility Buffoon (very very well I hasten to add), by two extremely good actors. One in this show by Stephen Fry and the other as the Prince Regent in Blackadder. Both classics and both showed early Hugh as the 'atypical' bumbling Upper Class 'twit'!
