Ring for Jeeves:
Bertie Wooster has lent out Jeeves to Lord Rowcester, an impoverished nobleman working in disguise as a bookie.
Jeeves without Bertie Wooster doesn't really work. It doesn't help that the setting is closely tied to the early 1950s rather than a never-never land vaguely resembling the interwar period. Only for real aficionados.

Bertie has to impersonate Gussie Fink-Nottle to prevent Madeline Bassett from finding out Gussie has been arrested and sent to prison.
I've read this several times but I can't find any record of it on LT so it must have been before I joined in 2006. It's still the one that sticks in my mind as the quintessential Jeeves and Wooster tale, though perhaps it's getting a bit too familiar as I didn't find it quite so funny this time. 2y
