P.G. Wodehouse Volume 1: The Jeeves Collection

good spoken english

I really like this as I'm a fan of the TV series and Stephen Fry, but it has an annoying glitch on my iPhone, I get a message pop up, saying that there was an error and it can't be played, and to contact customer services if the problem persists, I have removed it from my iPhone and downloaded again several times, as per the instructions on Audible's help pages but to avail, it plays for awhile and then stops for no reason, I know its my iPhone's fault as the rest of my library play with no issues. I hope Audible can fix it at some point.

These stories are suberbly written and describe, not only a time long past but many common themes of the human condition. Read of course by one of our nation's best speakers, and an accomplished author and actor himself, the wonderful Stephen Fry. I cannot recommend this collection highly enough!

Entertaining myself at bedtime

Hated this as it was no use, was wanting a CD and avoid Audible now.

I was a big fan of Stephen Fry's reading of the Sherlock Holmes stories, and love Wodehouse so this seemed like a natural "must-buy". Sadly it's not a patch on that audiobook for several reasons.The first is that there are already some excellent Jeeves versions on Audible, none better than those narrated by Jonathan Cecil. While Fry is amazing, the older versions are pretty unassailable in their conveyance of the wit of Wodehouse.Another gripe is the poor structuring of the audiobook. There are no titles, and there are so many stories it's hard to track down one's favourties. Also, they omit to inlcude Carry on Jeeves for some reason.I know Fry loves Wodehouse, indeed, I came to Audible following a talk he gave on him some years ago, but this is disappointing.

Good read

The Richard Briers and Michael Horden BBC radio drama is the peak of Jeeves and Wooster recordings. Accept no inferior substitutes. Download from audible...you will not be disappointed.
