Product features:
- The exploits of irascible retiree Victor Meldrew continue in Season Six and he fights misfortune, misadventure and sheer bad luck that life just loves to throw at him. The grim reaper finally gets to Victor Meldrew. He may not arrive in the form of a strangely-shaped unordered parcel, as a workman with the intellect of an orangutan, or even as Meldrew-fixated ex-neighbor Patrick, but he better be
DVD Reviews of One Foot in the Grave: Season 6
DVD Review: Contains the single BEST of all the 36 episodes
Summary: 5 Stars
Series 6 happened after production staff twice tried to end the "One Foot in the Grave" series. But included in this Season 6 DVD, The Final Series, is #3 "The Futility of the Fly" which I believe to be the CLASSIC of this classic cult-like comedy series. This BBC humor is derived from the unexpected, much confusion, unwanted retirement, banter and moaning. Situations are absurd and unbelievable--but pile up on newly retired Victor Meldrew like maggots on road kill. You will soon understand the why behind his famous line, "I don't believe it!" made famous by actor Richard Wilson in this series.
Victor is the World champion of smart aleck retorts. He's King Curmudgeon. The British Bard of Barbs. Just when you give up hope for something more than cynicism from Victor, he provides an oasis bit of tenderness, a note of loving affection toward his wife. Actually, Victor, attacks every annoying item in society and life, taking natural law into his own hands, only he uses his mouth, and sometimes cunning retaliation. It's funny. He dares do what we've all been tempted to do. He's the occasional "Robin Hood" of OAP (old age pensioners). But you don't have to be old and retired to enjoy this one-man crusade against injustice of being at the wrong place at the wrong time. We've all been there, and you too will cheer Victor's act first-think second attack on fate's little burrs of life. Victor is a moaner and complainer with a purpose.
If you can't afford the entire series "One Foot in the Grave: The Complete Collection" (see my collection review) then this single DVD is recommended. A higher recommendation is buy the complete collection--this DVD is included along with 30 more episodes, 6 Christmas specials, and other features just as fun.
WARNING:
One Foot in the Grave DVDs contain language issues: heavy vane use of Deity names & such. Also includes sexual innuendos, discussion of private body parts, & nudity (breasts and especially OAP men's bottoms). NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN or your pastor.
