Jeeves and Wooster: Jeeves Saves the Cow Creamer
Overview
Aunt Dahlia sends Bertie to sneer at an 18th century cow creamer in order to reduce the price for Uncle Tom. But when he makes a mess of the job rival silver collector Sir Watkin Bassett gets hold of it. So Bertie goes off to Totleigh Towers where everyone either wants Bertie to steal the cow creamer, or threatens to beat him to a jelly if he does. Stiffy Byng, Stinker Pinker, and Aunt Dahlia being of the former category, and the amateur dictator Roderick Spode and Sir Watkin Bassett being of the latter.

Episode 3: Pearls Mean Tears
Bertie is called to Westcombe-on-Sea by Aunt Agatha, delaying a vacation in the south of France. There he meets a girl by the name of Aline Hemmingway whom she wishes him to marry. She and her brother leave pearls as security for £100 loan from Bertie. But when both the Hemmingways' pearls and Aunt Agatha's pearls disappear, trouble arises.
Meanwhile, Bertie runs into Biffy Biffen, who has lost his fiancé in the most remarkable manner. Unfortunately, he is unable to remember her last name - in fact he is unable to remember almost anything.
Episode 4: Jeeves in the Country
When Bertie takes up the trombone, he moves to the country due to complaints from other tennants. The combination of these two events cause Jeeves to give his notice, who is immediately snapped up by Chuffy Chuffnell who owns the village to which Bertie has moved. He also owns Chuffnell Hall, but wishes to sell it to the American, Stoker, so that he can afford to marry said American's daughter, Pauline, to whom Bertie was once engaged himself.
Episode 5: Kidnapped!
After being turned down for the nomination of chairman of the dining committee at The Drones, Bertie runs into Pauline Stoker, who is in London to buy her wedding dress and is being followed by a strange fellow with a ginger beard. She asks Bertie to be a bodyguard. Meanwhile, her father is unable to turn Chuffnell Hall into a hotel, so he looks into turning it into a sanitarium run by none other than Sir Roderick Glossop. This is all bad news for Bertie's image, and his only hope is... the boys from The Drones dressed up as Minstrels?
Episode 6: Jeeves the Matchmaker
Bertie begins to think that having a child might be nice. Of course the first step, Jeeves reminds him, is getting married. Once again thoughts turn towards Bobbie Wickham. Meanwhile, fellow Drones' are in love: Tuppy with a dog lover in the country (and not with Cousin Angela as he should be), and Bingo (as usual) with a waitress named Mabel. Ensuing events involve a rather nasty rugby match, tossing pots through greenhouses, public speaking in front of young ladies, and plans to soften Bingo's uncle to the thought of his nephew marrying someone in a lower social strata.
