About to give a charity banjo performance, Bertram Wooster discovers his banjo has been ‘stolen’. His butler Jeeves suggests he instead recall one of his adventures with what props are available….
Bertie, under the assumed name of Gussie Fink-Nottle, is facing Judge Watkyn Bassett having knocked a policeman’s helmet off. He is sentenced only for the real Gussie to appear and pronounce his love for Madeline, daughter of Bassett. To impress Bassett, he has taken Bertie’s name and pretended to own Bertie’s flat. Basset also has a ward, Stephanie ‘Stiffy’ Byng, who wants Bertie to help her romance with The Revd Harold ‘Stinker’ Pinker. When Bertie fails to respond, she announces in The Times she is engaged to Bertie.
