As much as I love PG Wodehouse, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, I feel eight episodes of Jeeves & Wooster in one sitting was perhaps mildly excessive. It's not normally a problem keeping Wodehouse's characters straight, since they all fit a fairly limited number of types, but when you go through so many stories at once - and several key characters change actor halfway through - it does get a bit much.
Good pie, though.
What kind of excuse for a world do we live in where a man can be struck by lightning in a stone circle and all it does is cripple him? What's worse, the poor sap, having failed to realise the full horrific potential of this parallel, now says "The experience hasn't left me with a fear of lightning; in fact, I feel invincible now. The chances of being struck are millions to one - and I do believe lightning doesn't strike twice." He's obviously unaware of the park ranger who's now been struck seven times.
