The Wodehouse Notebooks

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

When PG Wodehouse was 19, he was living in Chelsea and jotting down ideas for stories, jokes and lyrics in three lined notebooks. John Bird pulls out some choice nuggets from these unpubhshed jottings, voiced by Tim Mclnnerny. Three Wodehouse aficionados provide footnotes to the writer's life: Robert McCrum , who is writing a new biography, author Norman Murphy and Sir Edward Cazalet , the writer's step-grandson. Producer Tony Staveacre
