Biff, Baff, Boff

ByJo Wilsonon 4 April 2017

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

Long before Allan Cumming was the Hollywood darling he is now, he was part of the rather splendid Victor and Barry duo (with the equally talented Forbes Masson), a wonderful camp and fey duo who royally ripped the pee out of the elite Kelvingrove theatrical community. Out of this pairing was spawned The High Life.

This had a brief viewing on late night TV way back in the early nineties, before disappearing for good. However it was held in high regard by those who witnessed its splendour first time round, and became something of a cult.

I was delighted to see that this had been released on DVD and glad to say it's every bit as fabulously ridiculous as it ever was. The humour is quite puerile and very Scottish, but I suspect it will have a broader appeal than just puerile Scots!

We're living the high life.... we're living it weeeelllll

Bykerrazooon 14 December 2015

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

Funny, funny funny. The Scottish comedy which seems like only yesterday to me but was actually over 20 years ago. All the cast are clearly relishing their roles and as a window into the Scottish sense of humour The High Life is a great way to fly. The adventures of the crew of the not too glamourous Scotia Air are great fun even now and many of the cast moved on to bigger things.

The only sad thing is there was only one series. But fun while it lasts.

Good (almost clean) Scottish fun that stands the test of time

ByDebbie Youngon 5 May 2015

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

Bought out of nostalgia for my 11 year old daughter as an alternative to the marginally less suitable Come Fly With Me, which she was keen to watch. There's the odd bit of smut in here, and some sexual innuendo which goes over her head, but it's stood the test of time, and we've really enjoyed watching it (over and over again, in my daughter's case), especially as my husband's Scottish. Show catchphrases "Oh dearie me" and "Eh?", in high-pitched Scottish accents, are now catchphrases in this house too. Personally my favourite bit is the kitschy Busby Berkeley style musical routines in the titles.

Brilliant with the wonderful Alan Cumming & Forbes Masson

ByPat45on 2 July 2017

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

We originally bought this DVD in 2012. We loved it so much we ordered it recently for a dear friend who is unwell & has decided she needs humour to brighten her life. We then couldn't find our copy so reordered it & watched 2 episodes this evening. Alan Cumming is the true star of this along with Forbes Masson. It's brilliant!
