Wodehouse, P. G. : Psmith in the City
- description
- additional information
For the seasoned Wodehouse fan there's nothing new here, as former radio presenter and all round national nice guy Terry Wogan scratches the surface in a slapdash review of the writer's career. That does not, however, detract from the entertainment value in this hour long one-off docu-chat.
Wogan reels in the great and the good of Wodehouse fans, including Stephen Fry, Hanif Kureishi, Joanna Lumley, and Gryff Rhys Jones, who all give personal and insightful cameos on their relationship with Wodehouse and his work.
The Inimitable Wodehouse
All involved agree wholeheartedly that Wodehouse was unique, both in his outlook and in his writing style. His exquisite sentence structure supersedes his plotting and characterisation but the whole package comes together as a wonderful mass of literary and imaginative nectar. As Stephen Fry says: 'It's impossible to describe the sunniness of the language, the way it lifts you out of yourself like no other writer on earth.'
