duckodeathreturns:019 Rab C. Nesbitt: Seasonal Greet (1988)So Glaswegian it makes Taggart look like Midsomer Murders.I don’t think there is a whole lot to say — at least in terms of Peter’s tiny part — in this, the very first episode of what has turned out to be an amazingly long-running and influential comedy program(me). His one scene lasts less than ninety seconds and it is probably chiefly notable for his amazing Rs, his attractive anorak (Jamie would approve), and his annoyed face.This is pretty much the whole scene (well, John’s part, anyway) except for the very beginning of his sermon. As you may be able to tell, I didn’t bother with most of Rab’s contribution, although, I have to admit I’m being a bit unfair to his words of profound wisdom because after I’d listened to them about twenty times I could actually understand most of what he says, but for space reasons I had to go with the condensed version. (I suspect Peter must have had a certain amount of real-life experience with this kind of, shall we say, uninvited audience participation from his band days and even more from his stand-up days, which may even have still have been going on when this was made.)You know, it occurs to me, if only John could have known that one day he would grow up to be Balthazar the Wise Man with a beard and a sunburn and an awesome hat and a giant gold ringmaybe he would have been slightly less annoyed because that’s pretty cool, right? -- source link
