sir....


Can any one guess how many times the word "sir" is uttered by Jeeves?

reply

It isn't the quantity, but the quality.

Wooster: You have a way of saying 'Sir' that gives one the impression that what you're really thinking is, 'Says you!'

Jeeves: I am distressed to hear it, sir.

By sheer coincidence that quote is in the very episode I decided to sample of the series recently. It seems like Jeeves never utters a phrase to Bertie without the word 'sir' in it.
