Jeeves, that's the name I was trying to think of. I always liked the Mr. Mulliner stories better, alas, no one liked them enough to produce one of those piratical Russian online pdfs of them. I'm sure there are some Trumpian figures in the golfing stories but I don't remember them as well.
Stephen Fry played what's his name, the butler. Just sayin'.

ReplyDeleteNo one has played Jeeves correctly, especially Fry.
ReplyDeleteMulliner, the golf stories, the Drones, Uncle Fred (star of two novels and a story): all works of comic genius.
