[graytart]

Colin Pillock is played by Timothy Carlton; his son is Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock).

Rossiter was a brilliant as Reggie and it has been said that he was quite difficult to work with as he was a bit of a perfectionist. Having said that though the people that did work with him and learned from him now have successful careers in their own right - says a lot in itself really.

This scene is straight out of Peter Cook type jokes. But i love it anyway!

[alternatereality85]

This comment is 11 minutes late, wireless keyboard battery incident at Chipping Norton. Leonard passed on way before his time, very much missed genius comedy performer. Wouldn't it be great if he was still around, wonder what else he would have done, maybe even some more Reggie!

He speaks very very fast, especially in Rising Damp, which is also awesome.

[ZabolusBCFC]

Still makes me laugh today! They don't come any better than Leonard Rossiter, that's for sure!

[cindycelia]

um... I am from Taiwan.I am a beginner of learning English. Would anyone please tell me what they are taliking about? I have tried my best baut the left one speaks so rapidly so I can hardly cathch him. I wish someone could give me some informatin of what he says.

[tabletschool]

This is a very difficult programme for a beginner. It is from a television comedy about a man who sets up a company which makes useless objects.

If you are just learning english, try a simpler programme, for example David Attenborough's documentaries.

[cindycelia]

Thank you very much. My teacher tells me that my English can improve if I try to listen to the BBC program.But I'll take your advice. :)

[moppettshow]

Your written English is excellent! The main character Reggie does speak very quickly. If you want to to see an example of another English sitcom of the same era, try Yes Minister on YouTube. It is extremely funny, and the actors speak very clearly.

[Prubbleoflakes]

this provides a valuable social service.

[Prubbleoflakes]

it makes us laugh!
