"Rab we could be players"

I haven't seen that many of the latter episodes of Rab C Nesbitt, and I am catching up with this one on That's TV (UK) Freeview channel number 56.

One of the things absolutely guaranteed, to have me in stitches, is the sight of blokes in drag, like Les Dawson and Roy Baraclough, as their characters Cissie and Ada.

Seeing Rab in drag as 'his alter ego' Candy, to con the SS is absolutely hilarious, and how such an obvious man's man, could bare to be seen in public, in such gear certainly beats me.

As I have barely seen many of the episodes, between the earlier ones to this series, I haven't kept up with the changes, in actors portraying the characters.

So I don't know when the original actor, stopped playing Gash Nesbitt, and this one started or why they changed.

But this actor quite apart, from looking totally different, is quite literally wooden in his acting, and not a patch on the original actor, who made the part his own.
