I always thought it was "gentleman's personal gentleman".

Even Jeeves himself, as portrayed by Stephen Frye, names his trade as "A Gentleman's gentleman". But of course, your version gives it more of a what's-the-word, does it not?

Well, to corroborate, I was just reading a bit of Wodehouse yesterday, and he did refer to himself as a "gentleman's personal gentleman". And no, I'm not going to go look at which book it was. It's one of those omnibus things.
