[@garym6315]

Remember when Lenny Henry used to host comedy shows like this, before he made the choice to only front black history shows and constantly talk about how racist the UK is? I'm willing to bet he would talk about how racist Are You Being Served was because it didn't have black representation. He is such a hate filled person these days and, ironically, thinks he is better than everyone else.

airbourne 101 - You do realize that was just a character don’t you?

[@stephenholmes1036]

Captain is a rank which can be kept if you are a Captain of calvary or Captain of a ship.

[@My_Legs_Hurt]

Frank Thornton would've made a fantastic Alfred in Batman

[@barbarapineda5730]

Hes, a great actor, frank thorn.. Play the character captains peacock,..

[@chicagodaddy1]

Didn’t the narrator play a character on the show once ?

[@yairgaitangaitan2240]

Loved him

[@frankcabanski9409]

Didn't he play Corporal Peacock?

[@arthurvasey]

According to Alfie Bass’s character, Mr Goldberg, yes! He knew him as Corporal Peacock - all the other characters - especially Miss Brahms - kept calling him Corporal subsequently - until he nipped it in the bud!
