Thank You, P.G. Wodehouse

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Barry Norman presents an account of the life and a look at the comic work of the man who gave us Bertie Wooster, Jeeves, Psmith (the P is silent), Lord Emsworth and others in the course of writing 18 plays, 33 musicals, 96 novels and over 200 short stories.
'I started churning the stuff out at the age of five. What I was doing before that, I don't know. Just loafing, I suppose.'
