Best fictional butlers/valets
Sep. 24th, 2015 11:31 amOver on Facebook, one of my friends posted a link to the first scene of the first Jeeves and Wooster that Fry and Laurie did. And it got me thinking: obviously, Jeeves is the best valet ever, but there are other valets who are ALSO the best valet ever, because their employers have different needs which they fill as admirably as Jeeves does for Bertie. So I decided to try to make a list of some of them:
Who am I forgetting?
- Alfred, for Bruce Wayne
- Kato, for Britt Reed
- Magersfontein Lugg for Albert Campion (who could be argued to be a TERRIBLE butler, but he's exactly the butler Albert Campion needs)
- Jarvis, for Tony Stark, although you could argue that he does the same job as Alfred, and Alfred does it better, so he might not actually make the list.
- Bernardo, for Don Diego de la Vega
