- Two chapters taken from The Inimitable Jeeves that form a complete episode in the life of Bertie, still in New York lying low and away from his Aunt Agather - well almost.
Huzzah! A new Jeeves and Wooster story from Lord Nick! I was beginning to think something unfortunate had happened to you, old thing. Topping, simply topping!
I was not thinking "unfortunate," but more along the lines of Nick's being snatched up to an exclusive contract with Audible and then we would have to pay for this fun and enjoyment (not that he wouldn't be worth double the price).
I really do appreciate reading your very kind and supportive comments. Thank you all very much!
Please please upload some more, I love them
Pheew! You are back!! Absolutely fabulous as ever. Thank you so much
Thank you for the story I love the performance thank you for your time and putting a smile on my face 😊
Sir, you truly have spoiled me for any other reader of P.G. Wodehouse. Yours are the absolute best!
Yay, hooray & hoorah! So glad to hear from ya Nick! Hope all is well with you & yours!
This was perfection as usual! My grin hurts from the huge goofy smile plastered on my face throughout! Even your Yank was great, although slightly more Dixie than New Yorker, but imo that made it all the better! Absolutely top hole what! TYSM as always my dear! 👏👍😍
Oh joy! Nick is back with J&W all is well with the world!! xxxx
I need to skip reading other's comments.
This world is full of critics, who's goal seems to be the spoiling of the pleasure of performance.
No one is born perfectly able to entertain. It takes trying, practice and mercy, not to say kindness, don't you know.
Very few of them have the courage to put their creations out in the world for other critics to enjoy cutting to ribbons.
Keep up the good work. I enjoy your narrations. I'll probably be criticized for it.😉😀
Nick, you are a bally topper and I don't care who knows it👍💪✌️👏🍻☀️🌋🛩️😎
So excited to find a new story from you when I logged on! Your great Jeeves and Wooster narrations are my bedtime stories every night and I know them all almost off by heart now. Lovely to have a new one. Thanks so much 😀
Ooohhhh!! I can’t wait to listen to this with my client. He has the Wodehouse collection, and I’ve come to adore the Jeeves stories. You are by far the very best reader 😉 we’ve heard. Thank you, thank you!
Glad you are back and with Wodehouse at that!
What ho Lord “M”! Let us all wear purple socks, pip pip :). Delightful read, enjoyed every word. Many thanks to YOU and Jeeves! Cheers my friend! julie
So happy you're back. I'm pretty much bedridden and need my One a Day .......for life :):) xx Thank you.
Adore Wodehouse and this reader is unbeatable. Thankyou so much
Very enjoyable story & narration. Loved it. Thank you. 😊
Jonathan Cecil, Ian Carmichael, yes! But best of the best reading... yes! is right here ! Mr. Marts! ❤️👍🏻👏🏻🥂🍾
These stories and your narration are truly treasures. Many thanks
When Bertie thought..
I found myself warming to this child...I almost rolled out of bed and giggled without control for some time: pure bliss
Yippee! A new one! Thank you, thank you, thank you xxx
Hooray for the new episode and for getting rid of the purple socks! Thank you!
Thank you for giving us another of your readings. Good to see you back again. All the Best.
My dad was in the US Army Airforce in WW2 at a British base in Egypt. They allowed him in the British officer's club even though he was a Sargent. He had great stories and jokes in this King's English.
Wow great read by Marts .. can’t wait for more!
Yay! You're back, sir!
To share with you a good news, my first baby boy is now almost three months old. I enjoy listening to your stories with my baby ☺️
Congratulations! That is heartening news - well done!
Thanks so much for these wonderful PG Wodehouse stories. When the news gets worse, the more l need to have you read PG Wodehouse to cheer me up😊
Delightful! An entertaining stand-off between frightful child and frightful Bassington-Bassington, the whole thing satisfyingly engineered.
So so so happy you've posted again. Thank you thank you thank you. Brilliant.
I really enjoy your readings of these hilarious stories! Purple socks ftw! What a treat ☺️☺️ thank you from Singapore!
Thank you

Hello from Moscow.
Subscribed.
That's great, hello Natalya from Wales!
@@Trickynickymarts Excellent work, dear Nick.
Listened yet again and it's still fantastic.
Spiffing good ol story, pip pip ol boy.
All Wodehouse is good Wodehouse.
You really changed my day! Thank you
No shortage of the old Bassington Bassingtons 😂
I no longer have my purple socks!
Thank you from Manhattan
Wonderful reading! Small point about 'noblesse oblige' at 16:03: the second word is pronounced 'obleej'.
Obleejay is the French pronunciation. Bertie may well have said it this way.
Welcome back! You've been missed. But, I say, I'm wondering if there's any DNA connection between Trickynicky and our local British Columbia grizzly bears. They both seem to be coming out of hibernation at the same time.
👏👏👏👏👏👏💜
❤
Aunts Aren't Gentlemen and Aunt Agatha is the worst. ( chews broken glass, B Wooster)
What is the word they keep calling people ? "cove"? oh just another word for thing or person😅
@@jillsy2815Exactly so. As in 'He's a good cove'.
Did Richard sort out the rug ordering for you?
Yes! Thank you! I just finished ordering! I have a brother named Richard as well! How funny!! Thank you to you both! 🤗🤗🙏🏽💕
@@jillsy2815 Goodo - warm nights ahead!
You are an avid listener to Wodehouse! Thank you.
"Cove" is originally thieves cant dating back to the 16th century.
In this context it means 'bloke', a sort upper class slang.
Once again, too many mispronunciations have crept in. "Noblesse oblige" is almost right until an extra syllable is tacked on. Then there was "injurous". No such word exists. It is "INJURIOUS" - 4 syllables. And so it goes. No voice director can be perceived in any of these attempts by Nick Martin.
Stop listening, then you can stop moaning
I'm guessing that Nick is not able to afford the voice director and probably uses his "profits" to buy himself a cup of tea every now and then. It's not the criticism, but the tone...
Shen ec tAY dy is another.
Another Wooster and Jeeves spoiled by Nick Martin's overly dramatic reading.
Idea; don't listen.
Couldn't disagree more. Could not stop laughing - he makes every word hilarious. His delivery could not be funnier! He's brilliant, and I always thought every mispronounced word in all of his readings were absolutely part of the comedy; it shows Bertie's naivete, despite being so worldly. Bravo Mr. Martin! I love you❤
Matter of opinion,old chap. I love Nicks narrations! 💯🤩
These are the best readings of Nerves and Wooster EVER !
You are obviously totally uneducated in the settings of PD James books .......can I my assume You are either under 40 or not British
Quite bluntly you are clueless !
These are the best readings of Jeeves and Wooster EVER !
AUNT AGATHA - not "Agather"". FFS.
It is precisely 'Agather'. FFS.
A great voice but so many mispronounced words detract from the credibility.
I notice them, but find them quite amusing. I enjoy all Nick's readings. Jonathan Cecil is unmatched, but Nick is close up.
I suggest that you stick to reading the stories.
