Naked Video featured:

  • Drunk Sloane, (played by Helen Lederer) An attractive but stupid woman who props up the wine bar and delivers monologues to camera.
  • Bernard and Miriam, (played by Gregor Fisher and Helen Lederer) a repressed middle-aged couple.
  • Bitter Divorcee Lizzie, (played by Elaine C Smith) an attractive 30-something woman who (like Drunk Sloane) delivers monologues about her divorce, only from her bedroom, not a wine bar.
  • Highlander Angus, (played by Gregor Fisher) A Gaelic TV presenter for the OHBC (Outer Hebrides Broadcasting Corporation).
  • The Baldy Man, (played by Gregor Fisher) a vain halfwit with but a few strands of hair across his head. The character was spun off into a separate series. The show was produced and directed by Colin Gilbert who was also working with Fisher on Rab C. Nesbitt.
  • Siadwell, (played by John Sparkes) a geeky Welsh poet. (He had appeared previously in the Radio 4 show, Bodgers Banks and Sparkes.)
  • Rab C Nesbitt, (played by Gregor Fisher) an alcoholic Glaswegian stereotype who wears a string vest, a pinstripe suit and a grubby headband. He was arguably the most popular character, and also received his own series and became Scotland's most successful sitcom. The show was produced and directed by Colin Gilbert and written by Ian Pattison.

Famous quotes containing the words regular and/or characters:

    “It was inspiriting to hear the regular dip of the paddles, as if they were our fins or flippers, and to realize that we were at length fairly embarked. We who had felt strangely as stage-passengers and tavern-lodgers were suddenly naturalized there and presented with the freedom of the lakes and woods.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Philosophy is written in this grand book—I mean the universe—
    which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles, and other geometrical figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it.”
    —Galileo Galilei (1564–1642)
