Jeeves and Wooster: A Visit to Ditteridge Hall

Bertie Wooster drinks tea at Ditteridge Hall

In the first episode of Jeeves and Wooster, the TV series starring Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry (based on "Jeeves Takes Charge" by P.G. Wodehouse), Bertie and Jeeves pay a visit to Ditteridge Hall. Above is a view of Bertie having his morning cup of tea while Jeeves prepares the bath and fills Bertie's shaving mug.

The props used in the scene are most appropriate for a gentleman visiting the country seat of the Glossop family - the scene was filmed at Englefield House, Berkshire.

There is a shaving mug set on Amazon that looks quite like the one Bertie Wooster uses at https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01N0Z2NGY
