Press clippings
Nothing will quite satisfy the real, nitpicking Wodehouse aficionados, but this came as near as possible the flavour of the original and made a merry small play in its own right. The casting of the main character was especially apt, Richard Vernon plays Lord Ensworth with meticulous control; a lesser actor and producer would have turned this elderly eccentric aristocrat into a comic blusterer.
