** The various incarnations of Percy and George in the series. The latter played by the same actor as Bertie Wooster; Hugh Laurie tended to play characters of this type quite a lot when he was younger, which tends to shock American audiences who only know him in his ''Series/{{House}}'' incarnation. While those who were more used to his UpperClassTwit roles from before ''Series/{{House}}'' often took quite a while to stop expecting House to goggle mindlessly or burst into UpperClassTwit Speak ("I say, Jeeves, this fellow's looking jolly green about the gills, what?").
*** Incidentally, the portrayal of [[TheHouseOfHanover George IV]] as an UpperClassTwit is more or less spot-on; he was fond of partying, had no idea how to use money (he got into over the equivalent of £5,000,000 in debt before taking the throne ''two or three different times''), and is generally considered to have been a bad king (his [[SpareToTheThrone brother William]], who was almost as dissolute in his youth, is much better-regarded).
