鈥淓verything in life that鈥檚 any fun, as somebody wisely observed, is either immoral, illegal or fattening.鈥� PG Wodehouse, Girl in Blue [1970]

Alexander Armstrong concludes his three-part celebration of the work of the greatest comic author of the 20th century.

We鈥檒l hear a collection of some his best loved work, including a celebration of his creations, such as the feckless Bertie Wooster and his phlegmatic manservant, Jeeves, and his many other characters. All brought to life on radio by stars including Simon Cadell, Michael Hordern and Richard Briers.

We鈥檒l also hear rare interviews and archive along with contributions from fans, friends and family and in Part Three an edition of What Ho! Jeeves - Joy in the Morning: Schemes and Ruses. Bertie Wooster is much in demand, but his best-laid plans go awry. PG Wodehouse romp with Richard Briers and Michael Hordern.

Celebrating the comic brilliance of PG Wodehouse is a personal passion for presenter Alexander Armstrong, especially as he鈥檚 president of the PG Wodehouse Society 鈥� which attracts followers from all over the world.
