As Don Warrington (Philip) later recounted, despite the on-screen lust between Rigsby and Miss Jones, Leonard Rossiter and Frences De La Tour were actually poles apart in attitude and politics. And so, while there was mutual respect for the other's talent, it's rather a testament to their performance that you believe in their dynamic.
We lost Richard Beckinsale too young. Kate of the same name is his daughter. Don Warrington was, and still is just fabulous and Leonard Rossiter we lost young when he was the British veteran squash champion.
This episode's a classic, when he thinks he has shot Spooner! All my family love Rising Damp, even my grandparents did, I think this was one of their favourite episodes too!😄😄😄
It is such a good episode!! 😂
For context Rossiter was in the forces right at the end of the War, between VE and VJ day. So his teenage years lined up exactly with the War, he was 13 when it started. But yes anyone in their late thirties and older would have had memories of it.
Rigsby has a very high turnover of lodgers.
I wonder why?! 😂
I was about ten when I first saw this show - such a brilliant representation of post-war Britain and the old characters that existed. My grandparents were adults during WWII, though thankfully neither looked like Rigsby or had his attitude (especially my Nan).
😂 that's good!!
Yes. My granddad was relieved too.
In 1975 I was 8. My grandfather gave me a gun that I played with. When it turned out to be a real German Luger that he'd nabbed during the war my mother hit the roof. She obviously thought it was just a toy.
So you have to remember, men in the 1970s who' were the age I am now had fought in the war. I remember growing up hearing all their stories.
One memory I have playing in the streets as kid in the sixties was the amount of adults who had limbs missing,
wow! Really? I guess that would make sense, though... thanks for sharing!
I simply marvel at the brilliance of Leonard Rossiter‘s comic acting . On a par with John Cleese in Fawlty Towers.
Hi Megan l first found your channel through Rising Damp love your reaction to every episode classic funny show it gets better with s2 also they did Rising Damp the movie after the show ended few years later hello from Scotland
Hello! Thanks for the lovely comment! I'm glad you enjoy my Rising Damp reactions :)
The World War 2 references are slightly crowbarred in but, as you say, would have been more relevant to the audience 29 years after the war. Leonard Rossiter, who plays Rigsby, was born in 1926 and started his National Service in the Army just as the war ended. Frances de la Tour (Ruth) was born in 1944, so theoretically could have been menaced by a Luftwaffe plane while she was in her pram.
oh really? How interesting! It's a good thing Frances de la Tour wasn't menaced by a plane! 😅
I knew more about WWII as three uncles served in both theaters in Pacific & Europe. My younger uncle & dad served in Korean Conflict, but hardly talked about first all. Knew Vets from Vietnam in my teens, engaged to one.
My son served in Middle East Debacle...posted tear ever!!!
U. S. Has 700 bases around globe, we're in perpetual war now.😵😵😵😵😵😱😱😱😱😱
The reason that your uncles had to fight was because of the isolationism of the thirties. They learned that if you don[t put out the brush fires, you end up with half the world aflame. Their generation was determined to never let another World War occur by being active in small conflicts.
THis generation whines "bring us home, we like fighting, but not occupying"
Take a look at the episode Things that go go bump in the night.
I will! I’m reacting to them in order :)
@@MeganRuth I think it is the best episode. 👌
Yay, more wonderful Rising Damp reactions. :) Rigsby blasting a bullet through the door is such a classic moment! lol Hard to feel sorry for Spooner though, when he's threatening poor Vienna. The Spooner character was introduced in the episode "Night Out", which actually comes before this episode in the series running order. Just a heads up, in case you miss it, it's a hilarious episode!
Ah thanks!! I’ll have to look for that episode… I was curious about whether Spooner had been introduced or not!
@@MeganRuth No probs, glad to be of assistance! You've got "Night Out", "The Prowler", and "Stand Up And Be Counted" still to go in Series 1, looking forward to your reactions to those! 😺
I used to have a white shirt with Rigsby on it, incidentally the actor who plays Spooner, appeared in the first Doctor Who story
oh really? Interesting! 😂 and that's hilarious about the shirt!
Frances de la Tour (Miss Rigsby) appeared in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire .
yes I know! I think I mentioned that during the first episode.. :)
Theatrical? Well yes De La Tour, Rossiter and Warrington were primarily theatre actors, only Richard Beckinsale had a primarily TV career he had starting in The Lovers a sitcom about a young couple a few years before. Also not only was this show based on Chappell's play The Banana Box (which other than Beckinsale the others were in) , but Chappell did the same with his later shows, writing a play first and then adapting it into a sitcom.
And their parents experienced the war ,,"World War II was the deadliest military conflict in history. An estimated total of 70-85 million people perished, or about 3% of the 2.3 billion (est.) people on Earth in 1940." 9/11 2000
Leonard rossiter played mr sowberry the undertaker owner in the film oliver
Nice video my late mother first husband was killed by the Japanese so I grew up with this myself Iam not keen on Japan no sorry nothing alright it's a long time ago rigsby funny
Was spooner the really nasty heavy in callan who was with meers who menaced and beat up poor old lonely only to eventually meet callan who bashed him rotten?
Algorithm bump
Megan, please watch ‘The rise and fall of Reginald Perrin’ it’s very funny
You're beautiful Megan
This is class
Good reaction
thanks!
9/11 was a terrorist attack these lads are talking about the battle of Britain in world war 2 they do not compare , an people who watched this is the seventies as kids are now in their 50's and 60's but our grandparents an parent's lived through the war an talked to us about it .
both of them were extreme generational events that changed the course of the world forever. 9/11 may not have been on the same scale as WW2, but it's the closest thing my generation has to a catastrophic event that we lived through.
@@MeganRuth so two gulf wars and afghanistan didnt touch you so that doesn't rate as a war event , my Goodness !!!
always a good watch.
I love Canada your cool babe
Meghan will you marry me 😊 i love rising damp aswell and love your reactions you being a foreigner xx
