90s Scotland Revisited
Review date: 2006-06-27 Rating: 10 out of 10
This show is - not surprisingly - based around the main character Rab C. Nesbitt (played by Gregor Fisher, who is a genius actor). He's been unemployed for many happy (and unhappy) years, and most of those years have been spent drinking in his local pub.
Despite his limited education, obvious lack of employment and constant alcoholism, he's a somewhat intelligent being who likes to wander aimlessly talking to the viewers in a somewhat philosophical manner as if he's talking to a very good friend.
Each episode is full of hilarity, absurdity, and every so often, there are hints of emotion that touch you right where you live.
Covering everything from marrital problems, alcoholism, religion, coming of age, the struggles of parenthood and even politics, this show has it all, and tells all with complete honesty and the general lack of sugar-coating that appears in most television shows today.
Give it a try - Gregor Fisher's acting will blow you away.

to start off this has got to be the most gifted performance by gregor fisher as rab,if you love raw humour this is for you.most comedies improve with age,but the first two series were amazing especially wee burnie played by the great late eric cullen.i cant put on a review how good this show is,you really have to purchase it for yourselves.

Being as I have resided in the USA these last five years I have not been able to see Rab and I'm glad to be able to tell you that I was most pleased to see Rab finaly released on DVD.
I had these series on VHS when I lived at home in the UK and there are no differences in this DVD and the tapes actualy they look like they have just been recorded straight on to DVD from the tapes and no extras.
Oh well not to worry as im a big fan of big rab and the gang I wasn't that upset about any extras I was just so glad to be able to watch these classic episodes again.
The 3 DVDs are seasonal greet. and series 1-2.
Amazon give great service and I thorougly recommend them.
