My name is Bonnie and I'm 78 years young and I live in Salt Lake City USA, I've been watching The English soaps since I can't even remember are you being served with so funny English comedy is absolutely amazing. I loved all the show born to the matter butterflies I know there was one where a guy would walk out the back door of his shop and he'd be in an alleyway and he was in another time like during the war but I don't remember the name of it but these shows are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this there's nothing like English comedy it's really the best in the world💜💜💯

Mollie Sugden (Mrs. Slocombe) made several appearances on PBS pledge drives in the US in the late 90s when PBS aired this along with several other classic BBC comedies on their national network on Saturday nights. She was well into her 70s and was known to be a fantastic gourmet cook. She cared enough to travel to the US to do it for her fans. Talk about dedication!

I love how she can really communicate with her hilarious facial expressions. I saw an interview with the actress who played her. She told the story of how Mrs Slocombe's hair color changed from episode to episode, she had suggested it to make the character more fun. She at first was coloring her own hair because the show didn't want to pay for wigs but it began to damage her hair so she had to stop. Fans started asking why Mrs Slocombe didn't have the colored hair, the powers that be relented & purchased colored wigs.

I wouldn't call it an innuendo! It leaves NOTHING to the imagination. I think most people get a pretty explicit picture in their heads!

This has to be one of the top ten episodes! The pacing, the slapstick, the hilarious dialogue, and the best quality guest stars make this truly great. Diana King has only a few minutes to establish her character and make us laugh and she nails it right out of the box. Great stuff!

first time for me to see this particular episode - shows how well the writers and the cast were on the same page. Tough to maintain that continuity when some of the main characters left.

I cant believe the cast are all gone now...I grew up watching reruns of these with my grandparents in the mid 90s. I was about 11 or 12 then. Although these shows were from the 70s I have a love for British humor and old comedies to this day ( steptoe, fawlty towers, carry on, love thy neighbor etc) most people dont believe me when I say I know about all these old comedies as I was born in 86 and most of these came out long before i was born. When I can't sleep at night I come watch these to give me a giggle and some childhood nostalgia

I miss having the BBC channel. They had all the great classic Brit comedies from the Seventies. Are You Being Served?, Keeping Up Appearances, Benny Hill, Last of the Summer Wine, The Vicar of Dibley, Mind Your Language, Father Ted, etc.
@elizabethsohler18473 жыл бұрын
Last of the Summer Wine was a particular favorite of mine even better than AYBS, because I think there was more variety in the situations and jokes.
