Playboy Bertie Wooster is on holiday in Cannes. Away from the watchful eye of his sagacious butler Jeeves, he acquires a most unsuitable new item for his wardrobe. Events in Cannes cause shockwaves across the English Channel that threaten the relationships of Bertie’s Aunt Dahlia and Uncle Tom, his cousin Angela and her fiancé Tuppy, and his old schoolmate Gussie Fink-Nottle and young miss Madeline Bassett. Bertie comes up with a plan to repair the romantic rifts. Will it work, or must Jeeves step in as usual to save the day? And what will become of Bertie’s hideous new mess jacket? Adapted from the novel “Right Ho, Jeeves”, this original script features many of P.G. Wodehouse’s most memorable characters in a delightful comedy of manners.
