Waste of time

To me, this movie is perfection.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Been looking for this for ages and finally managed to track it down. Why do the BBC think it's fine to repeat the same old crap over & over again, but sit on gems like this which never make it to UK Gold or Dave? I originally thought they must have deleted it or something, but looking on Google it seems the original cast aren't keen on a re-run for some reason. Look on ebay, there's a guy selling the whole 6 episodes on DVD, can't wait to receive mine, hope it's not a poorly recorded pirate copy. Even if it is it will still be worth the £7.50 just to relive some classic Scottish comedy, the genius stuff the BBC used to be good at knocking out.

Tutti Fruti was one of the best BBC series of the 1980s. John Byrne's script was smart, witty and full of lively banter. It cleverly captures the delusions of an aging Scottish rock band who return for one last tour. Although the band don't seem to have much of a following they still believe they should have made the big time. There are similarities to Spinal Tap, but the characters in Tutti Friti seem more real.Byrne creates an amazing cast of characters and the acting is excellent. Emma Thompson was never better or sexier as Suzy Kettles. Katy Murphy was a revelation playing Miss Toner. Richard Wilson, Robbie Coltrane and Maurice Roeves were all superb. I would love to see this again.

A truly classic series. I looked for this on DVD and found the same as others on this board. I searched various sites, and it seems that the reason it's disappeared from site is that there are copyright issues on some of the songs used in the series, which have prevented repeating and releasing of the series. Damned shame. From memory, one of our very finest series and a terrific cast. I remember Katy Murphy was absolutely fantastic in this as Richard Wilson's assistant, and I simply don't understand how she has not been a more significant star since. I have seen her in a few minor parts since, but nothing significant.

Looking back this had a dream cast - Robbie Coltrane, Emma Thompson, Richard Wilson. And they were perfect in it. Even the supporting cast, particularly Maurice Roeves and Katy Murphy were fantastic. It was bright and funny, well written, well acted and the music was pretty good. So of course it's been repeated (once?) and not available on DVD.I remember loving this when it was first shown... and missing the last episode. And then it was repeated a couple of years later... and I missed the last episode. That it's not out on DVD yet is nothing short of criminal. Please... I'd like to see for myself just how it ends.
