When Bertie's indomitable Aunt Agatha asks him to chaperone a visitor to New York, Jeeves and Wooster dare not disobey, and have to step up to the plate. Unfortunately, their charge is a rather ill-behaved scoundrel called Bassington-Bassington, who finds himself in a whole bally lot of trouble almost as soon as his feet touch American soil. Add to the hilarious japes of our intrepid duo the ongoing battle of minds that is 'Purplesockgate', and this story from The Inimitable Jeeves collection will have a listener doubled over with many a chuckle!
