About this listen
First published in serialised form in The Strand magazine between 1933-34, Thank You, Jeeves is a novel that lends itself to an audiobook, with its diverse range of dotty voices all relayed magnificently by master Wodehouse reader Martin Jarvis.
No longer in master Bertie Wooster’s employ, Jeeves is engaged with a new employer, Lord "Chuffy" Chuffnell, an old friend of Bertie’s. True to form, thus follows a supreme comedy of errors which is guaranteed to raise many a chortle, as Wooster travels to one of Chuffy’s cottages in Dorset to carry on his banjolele practice in (dubious) peace.

Thank you, Plum, Martin and Audible
This idea I've always had that nothing is better than reading Wodehouse is up for review: Martin Jarvis's narration is superb. While I have no proof that would stand up in court that Mr Jarvis is a Wodehouse devotee, surely nobody could deliver such an in-sync performance otherwise?
I bless the day Wodehouse sauntered into my consciousness almost 50 years ago. When I first encountered his immortal characters, his swashbucklingly inspired wordplay, his mischievous ransacking of Shakespeare, the Bible and ancient history to illustrate mundane points , it was like being wrapped in a warm blanket on a freezing day.
Evelyn Waugh was right on the money when he said Wodehouse had created an idyllic world to which we could all escape when our own became too irksome. For me, that feeling of comfort, joy and relief from a sometimes loony world prevails and I expect to be reading - or listening to - the works of the great Plum until I hand in my dinner pail.
