This is definitely one to add to your collection. For those interested, here is an episode guide:

This review is from: One Foot in the Grave - Season 1 (DVD)

This is by far one of the funniest british sitcoms I've ever seen! And they finally came out with the dvd! (Even vhs has been difficult to find in past years!) Believe me, this is one of the 'best kept secrets' by the BBC! (Also check out 'Waiting for God', it's just as hilarious.) A wonderful value!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Most Irritated Guy on the Planet!, April 21, 2007

Most comdey is based upon irritation. We like to laugh at the irritated. Victor Meldrew it the most irritated person on planet Earth, and therefore quite possibly the funniest. Don't watch while drinking a beverege (unless you like it coming out your nose!).
