I remember seeing this series, (probably the second or third one), in early 1983. Friday nights was only time of the week when I got to have the portable TV in our bedroom, (I had to share with my brother), to myself, as he went out for the evening. It was on at around 8 or 8.30pm, after The Fall Guy, and I'd then switch over to watch Cheers! on Channel 4. Something I did for a good few months. Amazing how you remember things like that.

I love mollie sudgen she was such an exceptional actress

[@GothGuy885]

I like it! some slight similarities to when Mollie Sugden played Mrs Slocumb on are you being served

[@mosellethomas40]

What a lovely show

[@bikiniluvnguy1]

she sure played an old bat in this one. the trouble is, she reminds me so much of women I know around here. my dad once asked me if I knew why there were so many old widows around but not as many old widowers. he said the old women were so mean their husbands finally died to get away from them. I believe him.

Classic molly sugden brilliant

[@goombabear]

That's one of my favorite comedy series. Molly Sugden played a lovely mother to her son and daughter-in-law.

[@scottandrewbrass1931]

Makes" Three Up. Two Down" look like a classic .

[@jbtv7955]

That’s my boy what a funny classic I watch it on the tv sometimes funny as out even one actors out of Are You Being Served is funny is too.

[@l.salisbury1253]

This is USA calling... Speaking for myself- and I am unanimous in this- we Yanks LUV Molly Sugden! "Being Served" has a loyal American cult following...!

[@user-qi6ig3uz8v]

love me some #MollieSugden

[@scswp6945]

Please can you upload series 2 and 3 of this?

[@user-et6pj4db9s]

She was definitely the best and funniest actor in Are You Being Served? So I had high hopes for this but it was a bit weak in itself though thats not Mollie's fault as she can only work with what shes been given. They do say you should give any new show two or three eps before you form an opinion though so I hope the second gets funnier.

[@catharinecarrington2705]

Ida Matilda older Matilda known as The Fabulous actress adorable actress Are You Being Served is quarter comedy That's My Boy filmed in 1981

[@paullatimer1639]

It sounds like they spent all of five minutes writing the theme song.

[@paulalaughton7238]

Absolutely your watching it

[@user-et6pj4db9s]

Sounds like they spent all of five minutes writing the script too, Mollie does her best but it's a very weak domestic comedy

[@irmagarcia7826]

😂😂❤

[@josephlenehan4461]

Joseph and today TV

[@giulioz.4928]

Nice legs he has!

[@maxbygrapes3681]

This is a horrible basis for a show

[@jasonyoung7705]

Well, that was dreadfull. Main character is bombastic , unfunny, and unlikable The husband and the wife cant act.

[@scswp6945]

To be fair, they very much soften Ida’s character as time goes on. I tend to agree that she’s too harsh here. There is a noticeable difference in her character from Series 2 onwards (and she even softens as series 1 goes along).

[@DreFromMaine8472]

I'm glad some of this show is on here, its the one major comedy that Mollie Sugden did that I've never seen. She did this at the same time as Are You Being Served? and in 1978 she also did the short-lived Come Back Mrs. Noah, which some consider to be one of the worst Britcoms ever. Well, I saw it (it's also on here) and I have to disagree with that. It is NOT as bad as the critics said it was and it's nowhere near one of the worst ever Britcoms. Anyway, now I can finally watch this one!

[@loucrappi5869]

It's a shame that into two more seasons I don't know why not they just stopped all of a sudden Five Seasons wasn't enough two more seasons would have been better it was a cute show I found this add a thrift store so I bought this DVD set it's a shame that it started and ended the way it did too bad
