The High Life (1994–1995)
9/10
A one off high!
7 February 2010
The High Life was a mid 90s supercamp riot of a sitcom that really should of run on and on into the next decade, but was confined to one series. Most likely explanation was the taking off for Alan Cumming's career towards Hollywood. Set on a plane doing the Prestwick - Heathrow run, funnily enough shortly before Easyjet kicked in.

What I particularly enjoyed was Siobhan Redmond's supervisory character Shona Spurtle. From my days in retail I met a few of her. Little catchphrases like 'eh' and 'deary me' also add to the nonsense.

And you just wonder what percentage of the budget was spent on that OTT opening number, wonderful.

Pif Paf Pof, I want to have it off! Enough Said.
