The 'missing' Christmas episode is here! - By: dogbarkssome, 23 Jul 2004 
If you've never seen Rising Damp before then this is a good place to get a taster of the series, but the real reason this is an essential purchase alongside Rising Damp:The Works DVD (CCD30101) is that this compilation contains the Xmas episode ('For the Man Who Has Everything') that was mysteriously absent from that supposedly complete box set collection. Buy both these releases & you have every Rising Damp episode ever broadcast.
A Brilliant Comedy - By: Robert J. Mould, 04 Feb 2004 
Ihave been a fan of Rising Damp since i was a child & watched every single epidode when they were originallly broadcast.This dvd & the compete first series are excellent.Timeless classics you can watch again & again that cheer you up no end.Please, please please the powers that be release the complete 2nd seies as one of the best comedy episodes of alll time is the episode things that go bump in the night.The sheer brilliance of rigsby, Alan & the whole cast are in this its just perfect comedy.
what a terrible loss to the world that Leanard Rossiter & Richard Beckinsale are no longer with us.However they will be immortalised forever in this dvd & the others to come.Buy it.
6 great episodes from this classic series - By: , 30 Nov 2003 
Rather than a collection of excerpts from the series, as one might imagine from the title, this is a collection of 6 of the best episodes. Whether they are the best ones or not is a matter of opinion but they are certainly very good episodes. Rigsby is at his best in each & every one of them.
As the first series is the only one that seems to have been released on DVD to date , this collection is the only way to watch some of the episodes from the following series.
The picture & souind quality are reasonably good.
A classic...... - By: M. Plant, 07 Jan 2001 
'Rising Damp' is a classic, a show you can watch again, again & again (you get the picture !) & still laugh at !
The reason I've only given it 4 stars, is the lack of any extras...but since the show is over 20 years old & sadly two of its stars are dead, I guess it can be forgiven.
Lets hope complete series DVD's follow this best of collection.
