Summary

Dealing with the romantic impulses of Bingo Little is usually where sanity ends and Bertie Wooster's wardrobe begins to suffer.
In The Metropolitan Touch, clueless high-society confidence collides head-on with the stubborn realities of a country parish. The panic arrives via a frantic cry for help from Bingo, who has fallen in love with a lady of a dangerously serious nature. Desperate to impress her, he decides to unleash his so-called city sophistication on the local countryside, dragging Bertie along as a highly reluctant accomplice. What follows is a brilliant game of romantic chess where every player thinks they are a grandmaster, yet no one has any idea where the pieces actually are.
You don't listen to this story for the adrenaline; you listen for the flawless deadpan delivery and the crisp, snobbish charm of the narrative. It is sharp, wonderfully atmospheric, and deliciously doomed from the very first sentence.
