One Foot in the Grave (1990–2001)
10/10
The Golden Sitcom
8 April 2006
Written by the great David Renwick, One foot in the grave is truly hilarious with fantastic situation comedy. The sort of things that we all can relate to ,when similar things happen to us like car repair men and sales men and the dreaded Jehovah's witnesses.Richard Wilson brilliantly plays Victor Meldrew a man on a mission to try and stay sane in a crazy world. He shouts and rants with purpose while his lovely wife Margeret uses her tolerance to try and cope with her husband. She is wonderfully portrayed by Annett Crosbee. Margerets best friend Mrs Wareboys is so kind at heart but yet blindingly tack less which makes her one of the funniest characters.While the meldrews are placed in the middle of naibours of whom they cant ascape.Mr swaney comes through and annoys Victor with his unpredictability while on the other side Patrick and Pippa are desperate to move house after the daily disturbances victor has accidentally brought on them.
