'Rising Damp' was a Britcom gem from the 1970s, with a main character so loathsome he’s irresistible!

It’s lodgers versus landlord in this brilliantly written, brilliantly acted British comedy classic. Leonard Rossiter (The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin) stars as miserly, mean-spirited Rupert Rigsby, the prying, preening landlord of a seedy boarding house.

Rigsby engages in an ongoing—and losing—battle of wits with university students and regular tenants Alan (Richard Beckinsale) and Philip (Don Warrington).

In Series 3, new tenants include a flamboyant actor (Peter Bowles) and an exotic dancer, who test Rigsby’s narrow mind and lecherous instincts. Early on, lovelorn Ruth (Frances de la Tour) returns to the house after a failed engagement, delighting Rigsby and cranking up the hilarity with his clumsy courting attempts and her refined rebuffs.
