What happens

The World of Wooster is a comedy television series, based on the Jeeves stories by author P. G. Wodehouse. The television series starred Ian Carmichael as English gentleman Bertie Wooster and Dennis Price as Bertie's valet Jeeves. The series aired on BBC Television from 1965 until 1967 in three series. Like many other British television series of the time, much of the series was lost as a result of wiping. All but two episodes are now lost. In 2018, the series was included at #51 in a list of the top 100 most wanted missing television programmes by television archivist organisation Kaleidoscope. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
