1: "The Code Of The Woosters (1)" (14 Apr 91)
Aunt Dahlia tells Bertie to visit an antique dealer so that he can cast
doubt on the authenticity of a silver cow creamer jug. She wants the
dealer to reduce the price so that Uncle Tom can buy it more cheaply.
Bertie makes a mess of things and Sir Watkyn Bassett buys the jug.
Aunt Dahlia wants Bertie to go to Totleigh Towers to steal the cow
creamer. Bertie also receives a telegram from Gussie to say that he and
Madeleine have fallen out. Jeeves and Wooster set off for Totleigh Towers later that day.
Roderick Spode suspects that Bertie is after
the cow creamer. He threatens to beat Bertie "to a jelly" if
anything happens to the item in question. Jeeves discovers a secret
concerning Roderick Spode, which Bertie is able to use to his advantage.
Madeline's cousin Stiffy wants to marry penniless curate
Harold 'Stinker' Pinker. She tells Bertie that he must steal the cow
creamer so that Stinker can recover it and make a good impression with
Sir Watkyn. Bertie refuses to become involved.
Aunt Dahlia, tiring of Bertie's excuses for not stealing the cow creamer,
visits Totleigh Towers and steals it herself.

2: "The Code Of The Woosters (2)" (21 Apr 91)
Gussie Fink-Nottle tries to overcome his fear of Sir Watkyn Bassett and
Roderick Spode by writing down "scornful thoughts" about them
in a notebook. Then he loses the notebook and Stiffy finds it. She
refuses to return it unless Jeeves comes up with a way to make her
guardian (Sir Watkyn) agree to her marrying Stinker.
Gussie goes to Stiffy's room to try to get his notebook back. Madeline catches
him with Stiffy and jumps to the wromg conclusion. She breaks off her engagement
and announces that she's going to marry Bertie instead.
Jeeves suggests that Bertie tells Sir Watkyn that he plans to marry Stiffy. The
lady in question would then tell her guardian that she would rather
marry Stinker. Sir Watkyn would be so relieved that he wasn't getting
Bertie as a 'nephew-in-law' that he'd agree to Stiffy marrying Stinker.
When Bertie puts the plan into operation, however, Sir Watkyn says that
he's delighted that Bertie wants to marry his niece rather than his
daughter.
Stiffy shows Gussie's notebook to Roderick Spode, who goes
looking for Gussie. Bertie uses Spode's secret against him once again to
save Gussie from a beating. He recovers the notebook from Spode and
returns it to Gussie, who takes it to Madeline and explains why he was
in Stiffy's room. They are reconciled. Then Sir Watkyn finds some of
Gussie's newts in his bath-tub and the wedding is 'off' again.
Stiffy talks Stinker into stealing the local policeman's helmet . She hides it
in Bertie's room and then tells the constable where it is. Bertie is
arrested and ends up in a cell in the local police station. Sir Watkyn
decides that he doesn't want Bertie to marry Stiffy, so he agrees to let
her marry Stinker. Jeeves blackmails Roderick Spode into saying that he
stole the policeman's helmet. Bertie is released from custody.

3: "Pearls Mean Tears" (28 Apr 91)
Aunt Agatha is staying at a hotel in Westcombe-On-Sea. She sends Bertie
a telegram, instructing him to join her. When he arrives, he discovers
that his Aunt has met a young lady named Aline Hemingway and has decided
that she would be a 'suitable match' for Bertie.
Bertie quickly decides that Aline and her brother Sidney (a curate) are not the sort of
people he wants to spend much time with, so he does his best to avoid
them.
Sidney tells Bertie that he's foolishly given someone a cheque
for 100 pounds without having enough money in his bank account to cover
it. Bertie lends him the money to cover the cheque and is given a box of
pearls to keep as 'security' until the loan is repaid. Meanwhile, Aunt
Agatha has discovered that her pearls are missing.
Jeeves discovers
that Aline and Sidney are a couple of confidence tricksters. He unmasks
them, hands them over to the police and recovers Aunt Agatha's stolen pearls.
Biffy Biffen tells Bertie that he met a girl named Mabel on a
liner to New York. He fell in love with her, proposed marriage and was
accepted. He subsequently forgot her surname and the name of her hotel,
so he lost touch with her.
Several days later, Bertie learns that Biffy has managed to become engaged to
Honoria Glossop. Bertie rallies around in an attempt to help Biffy extricate
himself, with little success. Then Jeeves suggests that Bertie takes Biffy and the
Glossops to see a show called "Woof, Woof!". One of the performers in
the show is the 'missing' Mabel, so Biffy is reunited with his 'lost'
love. Jeeves reveals that Mabel is, in fact, one of his nieces.
