Absolutely terrific just as I remember it from when it first appeared on television. My wife being English found it really good even though I was asked what is she saying and what does that mean so many times.
Excellent

Bought this as a Christmas gift for my Aunt in Tasmania. She loved it and it brought back memories of going to the nearby Steamie with her Mother, my Grandmother!

If you haven't seen this it is a must, especially if you come from Scotland and your family can remember the days of the "tenements" in Glasgow. Even if you are not Scottish this really is a great "watch" it is sad and it is funny and full of actors you will recognize from other TV shows. Easy watching if you want something to cheer you up.
