Top review. A Modern Twist to a Classic Comedy. I wasn't aware that the BBC were making a new Reggie Perrin, so this came as a big surprise, but I am pleased to say a pleasant one and so far after five episodes very enjoyable.
Martin Clunes makes for a very different, but equally entertaining Reggie, with excellent support from Fay Ripley as his wife and Neil Stuke as his new boss, and some great turns from Wendy Craig as Reggie's Mum and Geoffrey Whitehead as his wife's father.
There are many nods to the old series, but it is just as watchable to newcomers and whilst in many aspects a commuters life train delays etc is no different to the 's bowler hats aside has incorporated modern gadgets and business jargon and trends into the show seamlessly. Lucy Liemann as Jasmine Strauss also adds some excellent support and the target of Reggie's many daydreams! All in all, well worth watching and proving that you can re-make a classic well if you successfully bring it into a modern setting.
In his search for a suitable new persona, Reggie swaps nationalities. The show that spawned a thousand catchphrases and one of the finest series in sitcom history.
Reggie turns up at his own funeral incognito, before returning to the house. The first episode of the third series of the classic sitcom with Leonard Rossiter.
After witnessing a pointless row, Reggie founds a commune devoted to a lack of competition. Another gem from the golden age of sitcoms. The community's doors are thrown open to the general public, but the great rush Reggie has anticipated does not materialise. One of the true greats of British comedy, Leonard Rossiter, stars as the titular hero in the perfectly written sitcom.
The word is spreading about Reggie's experimental community. Are you a Reginald Perrin kind of person? If not, you're missing out on some of the finest comedy ever written. Success brings communal social evenings to Perrin's. Comedy genius Leonard Rossiter's finest hour, ably assisted by sitcom deity Geoffrey Palmer.
Reggie's community is another Perrin success story, but how much longer can it last? The penultimate episode of the sitcom comedy connoisseurs rate as one of the best ever. Leonard Rossiter shines, as ever. He doesn't, for example, dictate memos to his secretary It's an opportunity to comment on the modern world without being heavy-handed.
