Sixty-three years old and resolutely single, Bob Servant spends his days with a small number of trusted associates pursuing unlikely business opportunities, giving stern views on current affairs and ‘chasing skirt’. His outlook on life is one of unbridled ambition and self-belief as he constantly battles the local ‘boo boys’ for the respect that he undoubtedly deserves. Bob Servant: Hero of Dundee charts the hilarious, whimsical and action-packed life-story of Bob Servant, unveiling with touching bravery, a fearless romp through a life full of incident, from his rise from a childhood of abject poverty, through a career in the merchant navy, his establishment of the largest window-cleaning round in Western Europe and his part in Dundee’s infamous Cheeseburger Wars of the early 1990s, to his current standing as an ‘unemployed gigolo’ in Broughty Ferry.
