    Oh Dearie Me!!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 April 2003*

At long last, the BBC has finally come to its senses and has decided to share one of its funniest (and most underrated) sitcoms of the nineties with the DVD-owning public.  I have even ordered TWO copies in case one should get ruined.  And at least I won't now have to spend hours on my computer (illegally) transferring my precious, but ropey VHS copies of the series to MPEG files!!The High Life somehow manages to combine pre-school-age humour, playground sexual innuendo, amusing tongue twisters Ronnie Barker would be proud of, surreal visual jokes (often involving the equally surreal Captain Duff), Blackadder-style sarcasm (spewing from and more often directed towards chief purser, Shona Spurtle) and camp song-and-dance numbers.  It all sounds a horrible mess - but it isn't, mainly due to the convincing and intelligent dialogue, highly inventive storylines and the superb comic acting of the main cast.Written by and starring Alan Cumming & Forbes Masson, the show's central characters Sebastian Flight & Steve McCracken were based heavily on their famous (in Scotland anyway) comedy alter egos, Victor and Barry.  Along with Naked Video, Chewin' The Fat and Absolutely, the High Life further illustrates the rich vein of Scottish humour that is all-too-often ignored by the television schedulers south-of-the-border.I think the greatest strength of this show however is that it doesn't have any feeling of nastiness and cruelty that many other modern British comedies seem to leave the viewer with.  And it doesn't take itself too seriously either like American comedies are prone to with their heavy moralising.All the six episodes are equally funny.  FEART and WINCH are my own personal favourites and DUNK obviously found its inspiration in a famous American super-hero comedy series of the sixties.As stated before, every actor is brilliant but special mention should go to Siobhan Redmond's Shona Spurtle (or Mussolini In Micromesh as Sebastian once called her!).  Anyone who is only familiar with her straight acting roles will be very pleasantly surprised.  Forbes Masson's Steve is a lovesick no-hoper, Patrick Ryecart's Hilary Duff is on another planet (and the only English character - tut, tut!) and of course, Alan Cumming's Sebastian is the embodiment of vitriolic screaming bitchery!!  It's a shame Hollywood beckoned Mr Cumming so soon; otherwise we might have been lucky enough to have had a second series.  Most people I know consider the High Life to still be his finest hour!Tell your friends about this great sitcom.  Buy this DVD.  Forget that, follow my example and buy two!!!

    FUNNY BUT DATED
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 12 June 2022*

I wanted to see this again, it was quite funny but nothing special.

    So funny
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 18 November 2021*

I guess a lot of people would not find this funny in today’s climate. Ignore those people, it’s excellent if dated and Alan Cumming has proved himself.
