Name: Scotch & Wry
Genre: Comedy
Rating: 8.2
Cast: Rikki Fulton, Gregor Fisher, Claire Nielson

Caught this again at Christmas - I was in physical pain from laughter. Probably not that funny unless you've spent time in Scotland, but Fulton (sadly, now dearly departed) had a wicked eye for finding the surreal in contemporary Scottish life.

It says something when the viewing public are actually requesting reruns.

A lot of comedy may be outstanding in its time, but dates badly. (Not the Nine O'Clock News is one that springs to mind). But like real whisky, Scotch and Wry gets better with each passing year.

"Right, Stirling..... oot the car!"
