Rosie M. Banks is a recurring fictional character in the Jeeves and Drones Club stories of British author P. G. Wodehouse, being a romance novelist and the wife of Bingo Little.

Inspiration[edit]

The character was inspired by the prolific early twentieth-century romance novelist Ruby M. Ayres. Wodehouse intentionally chose the name 'Rosie M. Banks' to be similar to hers, stating in a 1955 letter to his biographer Richard Usborne that he 'wanted a name that would give a Ruby M. Ayres suggestion'.[1] Another possible influence is the female novelist Ethel M. Dell (dell/banks = features of countryside scenery), who also has a middle initial of ’M’, a reputation for writing novels of the Rosie M. Banks sort, and is mentioned by name in several Wodehouse stories.

Life and character[edit]

Rosie M. Banks is a fictional romance novelist. A tall, lissom girl with soft, soulful brown eyes and a nice figure,[2] she is devoted to her pekingese dogs and owns as many as six at a time.[3]

She is the author of works such as: All for Love; A Red, Red Summer Rose; Madcap Myrtle; Only a Factory Girl; The Courtship of Lord Strathmorlick; The Woman Who Braved All; Mervyn Keene, Clubman; 'Twas Once in May; By Honour Bound; and A Kiss at Twilight. She also wrote the Christmas story 'Tiny Fingers'. Jeeves says that one of his aunts owns a complete collection of her works. The books of Rosie M. Banks make 'very light, attractive reading', according to Jeeves,[4] and he later says that the scene in Only a Factory Girl in which 'Lord Claude takes the girl in his arms' (as described by Bertie Wooster) is one of his aunt's favourite passages.[5] Other fans of her works include Bingo's uncle, Madeline Bassett, and American author Kirk Rockaway (in 'Stylish Stouts').

However, not everyone enjoys her books. Bertie Wooster describes her writing as 'some of the most pronounced and widely-read tripe ever put on the market',[6] and Bertie's Aunt Dahlia does not like reading her works. Rosie's husband Bingo has said that when she gets in front of a dictating machine, she becomes 'absolutely maudlin'.[7] Bingo nervously changes the subject every time his wife's books are brought up in conversation.

Initially mentioned in 'Jeeves in the Springtime', she first appears in 'Bingo and the Little Woman', in which she marries Bingo Little after meeting him in the Senior Liberal Club. Afterwards, she is known as Mrs. Little in private life, though she continues to write as Rosie M. Banks. At first, she is upset that Bertie Wooster had impersonated her, though they are friends by the next story in which she appears.

In 'Clustering Round Young Bingo', she submitted an article for Milady's Boudoir (the women's paper of Dahlia Travers, Bertie's Aunt Dahlia), entitled 'How I Keep the Love of My Husband-Baby', which, fortunately for her husband, has not been published. She employed chef extraordinaire Anatole until Aunt Dahlia stole him from her with the help of Jeeves in the same short story, and is thus unlikely to write further for Mrs Travers. However, the Littles did receive an excellent housemaid in a sort of exchange.[8]

It is mentioned that she is going on a lecture tour in America in 'Jeeves and the Impending Doom'. She reunites with her old school friend Laura Pyke in 'Jeeves and the Old School Chum'. It is revealed in that story that Rosie is a Scripture Knowledge prize-winner (like Bertie Wooster), though while the two women are having an argument, Laura Pyke claims that Rosie cheated by sneaking in a list of the Kings of Judah (an accusation later repeated by Gussie Fink-Nottle against Bertie Wooster).

Rosie and Bingo's marriage is essentially happy, though she dislikes Bingo's penchant for gambling, and keeps him on a tight budget. The couple have a baby, Algernon 'Algy' Aubrey Little, and Rosie manages to get Bingo a job as editor at Wee Tots, a journal for the home and nursery. The infant Algy is put up for membership in the Drones Club, and his godfather is Oofy Prosser.[9]

In Wodehouse's novel Bachelors Anonymous, there is a brief reference to a line from Rosie M. Banks's A Kiss at Twilight.[10] It is also mentioned in Bachelors Anonymous that her books often feature an impecunious heroine who receives a legacy,[11] and that in one of her early novels, there is a passage in which the hero, Claude Delamere, who thinks his fiancée is deceiving him after seeing her kissing another man, felt 'as if a blinding light had flashed upon him' when he found out this man is actually her brother from Australia.[12]

Influence[edit]

Although the name of Ms. Banks is attributed to a fictional novelist, there have been uses of this name to sell romance novels in the past. The most notable, Navy Nurse,[16] published in 1960, is attributed to novelist Rosie M. Banks. The author, one-time Saturday Evening Post editor Alan R. Jackson,[17] applied to Wodehouse for the right to use the name; Wodehouse, much amused, gave his permission.

True to the genre, the jacket of the book summarises the novel thus:

A romantic, suspense-filled novel about a girl who chose a glamorous and exciting career. Alice Smith, pretty Navy nurse, had an attack of love at first sight. And she didn’t want to be cured.
The man was tall, good-looking and French. Thrilled by his kisses, Alice longed for the day she would be Mrs. Jacques Stern.
But Jacques never talked of marriage. And he was mysterious about his private life, especially the source of his wealth.
Meanwhile, the Office of Naval Intelligence had rated Jacques “top priority.” And handsome Morgan O’Neill, ONI agent, was making a particularly thorough check. Morgan loved Alice deeply. He’d stop at nothing to save her from the dangers that threatened her happiness — and her life.

In 2002, a group of Wodehouse fans from the Usenet newsgroup alt.fan.wodehouse also voted in large numbers to place the fictional Miss Banks' novel Only a Factory Girl in the list of the top 100 list of books at Random House. This remained intact for over a week until the administrators caught on and replaced Miss Banks with J. R. R. Tolkien.[18][19]

Adaptations[edit]

Television
  • In BBC One's 1965–1967 black-and-white The World of Wooster, Rosie M. Banks was portrayed by Deborah Stanford.[20]
  • Jane Cussons portrayed Rosie in Wodehouse Playhouse, series 3, episode 5, 'The Editor Regrets' (1978).[21]
  • Anastasia Hille played Rosie in Jeeves and Wooster, series 4 episode 3, 'Honoria Glossop Turns Up' (1993).[22]

Richard P. 'Bingo' Little is a recurring fictional character in the comedic Jeeves and Drones Club stories of English writer P. G. Wodehouse, being a friend of Jeeves's master Bertie Wooster and a member of the Drones Club.

In his early appearances, Bingo, who has an impulsive and romantic nature, falls in love with numerous women in quick succession, generally pursuing an absurd scheme to woo his latest love interest and invariably causing problems for his pal Bertie. Eventually, Bingo marries Rosie M. Banks, and their married life is a happy one for the most part, though his proclivity for gambling sometimes gets him into trouble.

Rosie Bingo Meaning

Life and character[edit]

Richard P. 'Bingo' Little is a longtime friend of Bertie Wooster. They were born in the same village a few days apart, and went together to kindergarten, preparatory school at Malvern House, secondary school at Eton College, and then to the University of Oxford, where Bingo obtained a degree of some sort.[1] He often reminds Bertie that they were at school together when he wants Bertie's help.

Described as long and thin,[2] Bingo is the only person other than Jeeves whom Bertie says has 'finely-chiselled features'.[3] Bingo's loathing for country life is well known, and he generally avoids going to country houses when possible.[4] He bets often on horse racing and is knowledgeable about novels based on the subject, including Pipped on the Post and Jenny, the Girl Jockey.[5] He plays tennis, and in one story plays doubles with Bertie in a local tennis tournament.[6]

Initially, Bingo is largely dependent on an allowance from his uncle Lord Bittlesham, though Bingo sometimes supplements his income with tutoring jobs. He eventually marries the novelist Rosie M. Banks, and through her connections, becomes the editor of Wee Tots, a publication for families and children. Bingo and Rosie live in St. John's Wood, and later just off Wimbledon Common.[2] Bingo inherits a substantial income and a country house from an Uncle Wilberforce, though Bingo still finds himself short of funds later on, so it is possible that Bingo spent his inheritance in some way, that Rosie controls the money Bingo inherited, or the inheritance might have not been as valuable as was first thought.[7]

According to Bertie, Bingo is known for his romantic nature, which began at school where he had the greatest collection of actresses' photographs, and which was a byword at Oxford. As Bertie notes in the story in which Bingo first appears, 'Jeeves in the Springtime', Bingo is especially prone to fall in love in the spring, which acts on him like magic.[8] Bingo falls in love on a regular basis throughout The Inimitable Jeeves, and each time, he enthusiastically tells Bertie about whoever he has fallen in love with; Bertie notes that Bingo always reminds him of 'the hero of a musical comedy who takes the centre of the stage, gathers the boys round him in a circle, and tells them all about his love at the top of his voice'.[9]

The women he falls in love with form a diverse group, and include the waitress Mabel, who gives Bingo a crimson tie decorated with horseshoes ('Jeeves in the Springtime'); Honoria Glossop, the formidable daughter of Sir Roderick Glossop ('Scoring off Jeeves'); Daphne Braythwayt, a friend of Honoria ('Scoring off Jeeves'); Charlotte Corday Rowbotham, a revolutionary ('Comrade Bingo'); Lady Cynthia Wickhammersley, a family friend of Bertie's ('The Great Sermon Handicap'); and Mary Burgess, niece of the Rev. Francis Heppenstall ('The Metropolitan Touch'). Bingo is usually rejected within a short amount of time, and generally the girl gets engaged to someone else. In the last short story in The Inimitable Jeeves, 'Bingo and the Little Woman', Bingo falls in love again when he sees Rosie M. Banks at the Senior Liberal Club, where Rosie is working as a waitress to gather material for her next book. To Bertie's surprise, Bingo and Rosie get married.[2]

In 'Clustering Round Young Bingo' (in Carry On, Jeeves), Bingo must reluctantly give up his gifted chef, Anatole. It is clear in this story that Bertie and Bingo are still friends after Bingo's marriage, and that Bertie has also become Rosie's friend. Bertie considers himself an old friend of the family, and mentions that there is usually a photograph of himself on a table in the Littles' drawing room, next to photographs of Bingo, Rosie and Lord Bittlesham.[10]

Although the Littles' family life is happy for the most part, Rosie does not approve of Bingo's gambling habits and restricts him to an allowance. Occasionally, Bingo gets into trouble after losing money on wagers and tries to somehow make the money back while trying to keep Rosie from finding out.[7] This happens in 'Jeeves and the Impending Doom', in which Bingo loses money on a horse race and must get a job as a tutor for Thomas 'Thos' Gregson, the troublesome son of Bertie's Aunt Agatha. This story appears in the collection Very Good, Jeeves. In another story in the same collection,'Jeeves and the Old School Chum', Bingo's well-being is threatened by Rosie's old school friend, Laura Pyke, who tries to dictate what Bingo should eat.

Bingo attends Gussie Fink-Nottle's engagement dinner in the novel The Code of the Woosters. In The Mating Season, Bertie tells Corky Pirbright about Bingo becoming an editor of Wee Tots, 'a journal for the nursery and the home', and says that Bingo and Rosie have had a baby.[11] Rosie and Bingo have their baby, named Algernon Aubrey Little, in the second year of their marriage.[7]

Also in The Mating Season, Bertie says that Bingo generally changes the subject nervously when the subject of his wife's writing is brought up.[12] However, in Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit, Bertie mentions that Rosie frequently sends Bingo to places to take notes for her, to help with atmosphere in her writing.[13]
