An ageless classic, the main characters don't just act, they eat, breath and live the part. Well written, laughs galore, moments of sadness, the 4 x series provide hours of "Top Notch" entertainment.
Enjoy British comedy and remember this from childhood. Really great product, in original packing and without blemish. Excellent price.
I've just finished watching the 'Complete Works'over the festive period, basically because Christmas TV is rubbish, and I had forgotten just how good this series was. Good comedy, can be predictable - it's all in the delivery - and 'Rising Damp'is predictable, but beautifully delivered by Leonard Rossiter and co. Here's a series set in one or two rooms, (or a garage - when Rigsby buys a sports car to impress Miss Jones) with three main characters, consistently providing situations,lines and ACTING, producing honest, good quality, laugh-to-minute ratio's. The only disappointment is the film of the series, made without the grubby, dimly-lit guest house and the absence of the late Richard Beckinsale is too readily apparent. I won't go into the racist jibes that proliferate the series - it wouldn't happen in today's society and there is no real vehemence or dark undertones to them anyway. Watch and enjoy.Read full review
Excellent, thats all i can say about the complete works of Rising Damp. Classic TV which has never lost it's flavour. Nice to watch something that does not contain foul language, but has you in fits of laughter from start to finish. I do not think Leonard Rossiter got the recognition he deserved, truely an amazing actor along with all his co-stars. I could recommend this DVD set to anyone, full of entertainment. You will really enjoy it.
