Rab C. Nesbitt Sezon 10 Odcinek 5: Role

It’s every grandfather’s dream to be chosen by his granddaughter as a role model for her class at school but for Rab it becomes a nightmare. He finds out that Peaches’ teacher (Isy Suttie, Peep Show) is an alcoholic and a member of his self help group. This means the teacher knows that he too likes more than the odd tipple. How can he live up to expectations? At 60 Jamesie too is struggling to live up to his own personal expectations - of staying forever young. At his birthday party he dyes his hair, gets a ponytail and insists on having large helpings of jelly. He then drags a reluctant Rab out on the ran-dan but Jamesie denies him entry to the pub. Instead he takes him to a new business venture which is providing a much needed service to the more mature residents of Govan – a crack den for the over sixties. At Peaches school the next day Rab arrives to find the Headmaster (Iain Connell, Burnistoun) sacking her teacher for being an alcoholic. This leads Rab to give some genuinely striking advice which the pupils snap up much to the Head’s distress.
