[@ginevragali2981]

Lace 7 Specifically, the show was entitled “Are you being served?” British humor through and through...filmed in the ‘70s. The setting is “Grace Bro’s Department Store”...a formerly upscale, but now a bit down in the heel, pretentious establishment. The characters are memorable and quite brilliant: starting with the head of Menswear, Captain Peacock, a distinguished former British soldier; Then, Mr. Lucas, a young-ish buck who has an eye for the shapely Miss Brahms of ladies undergarments. There’s the very gay and very charming Mr. Humphreys and the irascible old fart, Mr. , who looks and sounds just like Winston Churchill. Fleshing out Ladies Undergarments is the aforementioned curvaceous (and just a touch common) Miss Brahms...and last, the royalty wannabe (down to the trill of her ‘R’s”) Mrs Slocome, who is somewhat bossy with the younger Miss Brahms. Mrs. Slocome lives alone with her “pussy’...and hysteria is guaranteed when Mrs. Slocome regales the group with one of “Pussy’s” famous antics...which usually start off as...” I was just telling Mrs So and So about MY PUSSY...” To which, Mr. Lucas gives a perfectly timed 🤨 raised eyebrow and clever comeback! The department store’s namesake, “Mr. Grace” is occasionally wheeled in by his two short-skirted, blond nurses. Mr. Grace is at least 100, and he usually ends with...”You’ve all done very well!” At which point, he collapses back into his wheelchair, supported by the two foxy nurses...Oh yes! I almost forgot the man responsible the famous quote: “I’m glad I don’t have your NERVE in my TOOTH!” This was made famous by the maintenance worker...not Mr. Mash...the other one...the one with blond hair cut in a bowl cut and an overbite...that guy! The guy who every time he comes on the ladies’ and menswear floor to set up a display or whatever, Mr. Peacock tries to rush him off because he looks so tacky! To which he will spout off some socialist jargon just to remind Mr. Peacock which of them has the better value system!
