3 unusual facts about Lord Emsworth and the Girl Friend


Lord Emsworth and the Girl Friend

Part of the Blandings Castle canon, it features the absent-minded peer Lord Emsworth, and was included in the collection Blandings Castle and Elsewhere (1935), although the story takes place sometime between the events of Leave it to Psmith (1923) and Summer Lightning (1929).

On top of that, Glaswegian Head Gardener Angus McAllister is making noises on his pet hobby, the project to gravel the famous Yew Alley.

In 1985, it was adapted as the fifth episode of the "Blandings" radio program, starring Richard Vernon as Lord Emsworth and Margot Boyd as Lady Constance.
