In a series called the pinnacle of British comedy, the miserly and mean-spirited landlord of a rundown boarding house is hilariously one-upped by his luckless tenants. Like Archie Bunker in the U.S., Rupert Rigsby is the British comedy character the whole country loved to loathe. Comic genius Leonard Rossiter (The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin) plays the odious Rigsby, whose ludicrous pretensions and bigotry are played off against the hijinks of his more enlightened but cash-strapped tenants: long-haired medical student Alan (Richard Beckinsale), love-starved administrator Ruth (Frances de la Tour), and urbane African prince Philip (Don Warrington).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe BAFTA Award-winning series, a critical and popular success during its four seasons on the U.K.'s ITV network in the 1970s, remains a winner. It was the highest-rated ITV sitcom in a 2004 poll to name Britain's top 100 sitcoms of all time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Episodes:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Lodgers (Rooksby)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBlack Magic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Night Out\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCharisma\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll Our Yesterdays\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Prowler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStand Up and Be Counted\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 173 mins.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor DVD Player (North American NTSC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"ACORN MEDIA","offers":[{"title":"New, Sealed In Box","offer_id":49658740408598,"sku":"111463","price":7.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/0377\/1710\/files\/2025116143552833scan.jpg?v=1737205288","url":"https:\/\/www.neverdiemedia.com\/products\/rising-damp-series-1","provider":"NeverDieMedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
