Winston
Winston Smith (nickname: Jeeves) is Lara's Butler in the games.


Lara meets him in the Trainings Levels in Tomb Raider I to III (Lara's Home) and Tomb Raider Legend (Croft Manor) and in the Golden Mask level Nightmare in Vegas. He will make his return in Tomb Raider Anniversary playing a yet unknown part (probably in cut scenes and the Manor-Level).


Winston in the Games

Tomb Raider Classic

Locking Winston in the Fridge

A fun game that was very popular among the fans was locking Winston in the fridge. In Lara's Home Level you have to run into the kitchen. Open the fridge by using the button. Get inside the fridge and wait for Winston to appear. Then quickly run out leaving him and shut the door again.

Tomb Raider Legend

Winston in Legend

In Tomb Raider Legend Winston is back. He looks taller and much younger than in the previous games.

from the official Site

Winston is Lara's butler, and he has served the Crofts for most of his life. He's calm, sophisticated, unflappable, and knows more about Lara and her doings than anyone. He worries about her but he knows ho capable she is, and he does nothing to dissuade her from her life's pursuit, and indeed he's just as willing to fetch 9mm ammunition as he is to set out tea service, and he will even toss a few spare ammo clips into her bag without her asking.

Tomb Raider Anniversary

Winston will make his return in Tomb Raider Anniversary, even though he was not in the original Tomb Raider.

Winston's Voice

Alan Shearman gave Winston his voice for Tomb Raiders Legend and Anniversary.

The Name Jeeves

It seems that the name Jeeves has been given to him by the fans, while the creators at Core Design decided to call him Winston.

Reginald Jeeves is a character in the books of P.G. Wodehouse and has since come to be a common term referring to a butler or valet.
