Product Description: ITV s finest and most enduring sitcom Radio Times Guide to TV Comedy
A snooping and sneering landlord and his hapless tenants make comedy magic in one of the most popular Britcoms of all time.
Leonard Rossiter (The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin) is Rigsby, the landlord from hell in this beloved comedy series. In a rundown boarding house in a northern university town, he is a ludicrous lord-of-the-manor, prying into the lives of his tenants, who give him back as good as they get. In Series 2, Miss Jones (Frances de la Tour) is swept off her feet by another man, leaving the lecherous Rigsby bereft until an artists model takes her place in the vacant room. A conman easily separates the gullible Rigsby from his money, and Alan (Richard Beckinsale) and Philip (Don Warrington) have the last laugh when Rigsby tries to convince them that the house is haunted. A Christmas special is the season's grand finale.

To briefly introduce the characters, Rigsby is the nosy, bigotted, socially-inept, self-important ... Read More
