Bertie is more than familiar with the country house set-up: he is a veteran of the cocktail hour and, thanks to Jeeves, his gentleman&#8217;s personal gentleman, is never less than immaculately dressed. On this occasion, however, it is Jeeves who is to be seen in the drawing room while Bertie finds himself below stairs &#8211; and he doesn&#8217;t care for it at all. Love, as so often, is at the root of the confusion. Bertie, you see, has met Georgiana on the C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur. And though she is clever and he has a reputation for foolish engagements, it looks as though this could be the real thing. However, Georgiana is the ward of Sir Henry Hackwood and, in order to maintain his beloved Melbury Hall, the impoverished Sir Henry has struck a deal that would see Georgiana becoming Mrs Rupert Venables. Meanwhile, Peregrine \u2018Woody&#8217; Beeching, one of Bertie&#8217;s oldest chums, is desperate to regain the trust of his fianc\u00e9e Amelia, Sir Henry&#8217;s tennis-mad daughter. But why would this necessitate Bertie having to pass himself off as a servant when he has never so much as made a cup of tea? Could it be that the ever-loyal, Spinoza-loving Jeeves has an ulterior motive?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sebastian Faulks: Jeeves and the Wedding Bells. 2013.
