@@LittleKitty22 Your Home Office experience doesn't surprise me. i never cease to be staggered by the ignorance and stupidity of the people getting paid to shuffle forms and process paperwork on behalf of the UK government. You came to the U.K. in the 80's yet didn't notice or weren't told of the racial unrest in many cities at that time, riots in Handsworth, Brixton, Toxteth, Moss Side, Chapeltown? Thatcher's Britain was not a nice place for people of colour. I was lucky in many ways in that I didn't grow up in an inner city 'ethnic' enclave where the police hassled people with impunity. I grew up in a white middle-class environment with a father who just happened to be a black Jamaican. I escaped the worst abuse as a kid in the rural West of England, though teachers resented me because I was generally brighter than the white kids around me, they wanted me to excel only at sports. Things changed when my family relocated to industrial West Yorkshire. We lived in an all-white town near Leeds and the level of ignorance and racism from the kids was through the roof. Teachers were generally indifferent and did nothing to stop it. i think the drift to the right in many countries has allowed the venomous resentment of racists who previously tried to hide their true feelings to spring to the surface. Brexit idiots like Farrage and the goons in government would seem to confirm that. I've lived in Japan for a long time, xenophobia is deeply embedded in this society and the country is run by people who would have been imprisoned under the de-nazification that occurred in Europe after the war. It often amuses me when I see white people here complain when they've been discriminated against (as sometimes happens), forgetting that they largely benefited from racial bias back in their homeland. Different when the boot's on the other foot.

At the time I thought it was great how people of different races seemed to get on well with each other, but I probably didn't see the whole picture as I was not living here then and was only in my early teens. I heard about the racial unrest once I came to live in the UK as I was living in Handsworth/Birmingham then, it wasn't a nice place then either and it still isn't. Asians hate Asians of different religions, black people and Asians hate each other - it's terrible. It's still a very rundown area or at least it was still when I last saw it in 2014. The stupidity I encountered at the Home Office is something that I have experienced everywhere in the UK and it's shocking, I have lived in several countries and nowhere have I encountered the level of stupidity I come across here on a daily basis! In any other country, people who are so incompetent would long have been fired and would in fact be unemployable! Here it's the other way round - I'm unemployable because I'm not stupid enough! No joke - unfortunately that's very much the case! I have thought this through and have wondered whether I might have it easier just pretending that I'm of low intelligence (my reasoning being, I get treated as if I were stupid anyway so why not keep them happy and pretend to indeed be retarded) - but it's far more difficult to do than one thinks! How can I for example pretend to be of very low intelligence when the way I speak alone gives away that I'm not uneducated? How should I react when people speak to me in baby language and say things like "I won't explain that to you because you wouldn't understand it anyway" - while at the same time it's them that don't understand simple sentences in English even though they are native English speakers? I could write a book full of examples of such experiences! Very true what you say about the Brexit goons. I've heard it from so many people now since this whole Brexit palaver started - "we voted for Brexit to get rid of people like you", "enjoy the flight home" and "go home"! I've heard from European nationals that got chased down the road and told to "go home"! I've heard of Muslim businesses getting vandalized! I know there are a lot of very serious problems with members of a certain ideology being above the law in the UK (I've experienced that myself as the victim of this bias as members of this ideology get actively protected to the extreme by police, so much so that I the victim got hounded by police) and white people now suffering active disadvantages and downright racism from the government, but attacking people is surely not the way forward and neither is blind hatred towards anyone who is not white! Sadly this is what we got now. A renewed race riot is not far off. As for Brexit by the way - they'll soon complain when basic workers' rights get done away with because such rights as minimum wages, paid annual leave, a welfare benefits system, data protection, the Human Rights Act etc are all in existence purely thanks to the EU! I know about Japan, never been there but yes, it's well known that they hate anyone who is not Japanese. A lot of folks who go to work or study there find it shocking and regret going there. Japan has a fascinating culture but a lot of problems with prejudice. By the way, I gotta laugh when I always hear white people say that foreigners don't integrate - when it's British people who immigrate to Spain, Egypt etc and refuse to learn the local language and only socialize with each other!

Can't beat a bit of indulgence before Christmas 🎄⛄ Rising Rigbie on all accounts simply Wonderful 👍

The casting was inspirational, the acting superb, the writing brilliant.

My mixed race parents used to laugh there heads off at this show! Rigsby was such a tosser! What a great show! Everyone in it was fantastic! Merry Christmas!

My dad used to love this show ,brings back memories .The best !

One of my familys favourite comedy's when I was a youngster . Rewatching this Christmas . The nostalgia 💕

Hasn’t lost its comedy element after over 40 years, from an era when no one took a joke seriously. Richard Beckinsale and Leonard Rossiter sadly taken before their time.

Thanks for uploading this -- Leonard Rossitor's genius will never go out of style.

Your disrespectful misspelling already did though.

Best comedy era, you had these faulty towers , porridge, ain't half hot mum, steptoe and sons, are you being served ,bless this house ect ect,,sad to say but we haven't got any good comedy series on t.v ,good job we can watch our favorites at a touch of a button

i love the conversations rigsby has with vienna

A performance of absolute brilliance from Leonard rossiter backed up with great performances from the cast.

Me and my dear old dad used to watch this years ago so funny and still is!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thank you!!

Genius comedy with Leonard Rossitter and Richard Beckinsale! Great cast and more laughs in this, than anything on the TV nowadays!

Rick Mayall. After all these years, it's just dawned on me.

Rigsby. Is a genius. Especially when he gives the postwoman a drink and steers her towards the mistletoe he keeps looking up and at her at the same time. Hilarious. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
