Isobel Rockmetteller , is a recurring fictional character from the Jeeves novels of British comic writer P. G. Wodehouse, being the aunt of the poet Todd Rockmeteller ("Rocky"), who is living in his cabin in the Long Island woods. In the 1990s television series Jeeves and Wooster she is portrayed by Heather Canning . Adapted from "Jeeves and the Hard-Boiled Egg" (from Carry On, Jeeves) and "The Aunt and the Sluggard" (from Carry On, Jeeves).

The poet Todd Rockmeteller ("Rocky") wants a quiet life in his cabin in the Long Island woods. But his Aunt Isobel, who keeps him supplied with money, wants him out clubbing every night and to send her a report of what is going on. Jeeves goes clubbing in his place and Rocky writes reports based on Jeeves' experiences. However, he makes it sound so good that the aunt decides to come to for herself. Bertie is forced to lend Rocky his flat, since that is the address given to Aunt Isobel in Rocky's letters. Jeeves solves Rocky's dilemma by giving Aunt Isobel misleading directions to a show; she ends up at a temperance meeting which causes her to change her views, and she insists on Rocky leaving New York in order to live quietly in the countryside.
