You can't beat a bit of Scottish humour. Surprised this doesn't have more reviews. Brian Cox is brilliant playing Bob Servant. A delusional self confident man.

Brian Cox plays it wonderfully and it's a charming tale/caper. If you only know Cox from his serious roles, it's refreshing seeing him play comedy perfectly.

Give it a go.

Simply the greatest thing to have happened to me during the lockdown was discovering this show. A mix of eccentric, great acting, the funniest script I've heard in years and the magical backdrop. It's wonderful on so many levels, writer & creator Neil Forsyth.

Very enjoyable, great fun, farcical character.

Well written Great scenery too.

Set in Brian Cox's home town (or the posher, seaside suburb of his home city)

This us one of the most unfunny comedy shows I have ever seen. Brian Cox was trying to help local folk in the Dundee area but the whole thing is a shambolic and pathetic attempt at humour.

There is an art to executing a well-crafted, half-hour situational comedy, and Bob Servant is a shining example of just such a thing.

The writing is phenomenal with a laugh in nearly every line. Belly-laugh laughs. A simple, uncluttered concept with a minimum of characters. Not a mean bone in its body. Uplifting, yes, but not squishy, not in the least.

And the cast. Those who only know Brian Cox as his Logan Roy incarnation (who is, frankly, a very unfunny fellow) are in for a treat as Cox unleashes his massive comedy chops as the titular character. An unabashed chewer of scenery, Cox never once falters in keeping this character afloat while driving the humor. It is a thing to behold.

His co-star, Jonathan Watson, is the perfect foil, an understated straight man, serving up pitches that Cox knocks out of the park. There are a handful of uncredited talents who help make this a very fun affair.

Now showing on Britbox with hardly a hint of promotion, I hope that like-minded Brian Cox completists find their way to this series. It's one of his best performances, and that's saying a great deal.
